2nd Half – PHI 7, DAL 7
Posted: November 8th, 2015 | Author: Tommy Lawlor | Filed under: Philadelphia Eagles | 1,060 Comments »It wasn’t pretty, but the 1st half turned out okay. The Eagles offense started slow and Dez Bryant started hot. I think that had us all nervous. Things settled down after that and we are where we are.
The Eagle run game heated up and helped the offense go down for the tying TD. The defense gave up some yards, but came up big when Dallas got to FG range. A sack by Brandon Graham pushed them back and kept the game tied.
The revamped OL has played well. Greg Hardy has basically been a non-factor.
Sam Bradford and the passing game is great if you love the short stuff, but they have got to get a bit more aggressive if the Eagles are going to sustain drives and score points.
Dallas gets the ball first to start the 2nd half.
No takeaways yet for the Eagles. If they can get 1 or 2, that would be a huge help to securing the win.

Greg hardy trying to take out Lane’s knee.
Not sure why we’re not pushing it downfield more.
Downfield passing is soooooo 2013.
#FuckDallas
FUCK DALLAS!
…i actually agree with Collinsworth on the handling of domestic violence. I think tha’ts the first I’ve ever agreed with him on anything.
Hell to the yes
Hell to the no
ref to the rescue?
Beautiful penetration and tackle for loss!
Of course, such beauty must be sullied…
OH COME ON
Dope
What an idiot
Godammit Graham.
Graham didn’t even make that play…. damn. That was idiotic.
Stupid, stupid, stupid.
That is a turnover
fucking stupid undisciplined.
Belicheck has cut players for less
I should be more unhappy to see trainers working on our star RB
Oh, I see. Graham was buying time for Murray to get stretched out. Smart move.
What did Graham do? Said something?
Got in McFadden’s face and started talking shit.
While McFadden was lying on the ground.
Yeah, probably an important detail. Wouldn’t have gotten it had they both been walking I think.
After the RB was stuffed on 3rd and short, he came over and leaned down right over him and appeared to be yelling something.
I am not clear on the rule about taunting.
Probably wouldn’t have been called if both players were up and walking.
Watch the replay, that is basically textbook
If a rule exists, that broke it.
The rule: Don’t be a knucklehead. NFL players have had problems with this rule
Now shut the fuck up Graham.
Seriously, you can’t open your mouth the rest of the game
Now the defense is awake.
Good play, now shhhh
thank you d.
Cassel is turning into Cassel.
Like a sand Cassel facing a green tide.
Ouch…
At least Dallas went 3 and out twice on their drive…
Oh man, that was Donnie Jones-esque
sick punt
This is just some lousy offensive football
Like last match up.
welcome to 2015.
Some reporter will call this a “Defensive Battle.” That reporter never saw the game
Thanks for the field position graham
Hicks is a wonderful player !!! great call on drafting him
your optimism has no place here!
Sean Lee is hurt.
Maybe we call a stretch play next while he’s out for a play (at least)
We’re calling a stretch play anyway
If you don’t succeed, try again 17 times.
Good chance we get back to the line of scrimmage.
sean lee hurt
Sean Lee is down. Half a season would be a personal record for him, I think.
This is as big as Romo going down
KIA commercial was weird
Green light commercial is exploitation of armed forces…..Walmart playing on our emotions and sense of pride to sell green light bulbs.
My friend is a soccer guy and argued how can I be intrigued by this crappy game.
He has a point tonight. Snooze fest
Hey, this is 13 points more than a typical soccer game!
right b/c soccer is so exciting.
Two scores already beats a soccer game
The Eagles have cost the NFL millions of fans this year.
I love both sports, I literally went to the biggest derby match of my country today.
Theres is certainly mindnumpingly boring games in european football too.
pound it down their throats
Oh, that’s ugly to see
Man he dropped that in a bucket. Perfect throw.
Whooooooooaaaa Nelly
Bradford makes a downfield throw!
wtf was murray doing with taht ball at the end
That’s right, Sam, just pretend you’re in practice.
Nice throw there by Bradford. I’m hoping signs of life are coming back to him dating back in the…preseason games. 🙂
High percentage play
The screen game on this team is nonexistent
What..
why stop running?
First drop of the night?
Pay the Zebras!
ref help please
Miles Austin bailed out by the refs there…
Unreal with these drops. I’ll take the flag but come on
There’s a lot of competition, but I think Miles is my least favorite Eagle
You have to hold miles Austin?! Haha
Wow….. Huge drop that won’t go on the stat page for Austin
What a lucky call there.
*slow clap* Matthews held onto it.
great fake
Pound it in. Use cox if u have too
Nice stiffarm there!
Now that is what we need to see from Matthews. Good catch and excellent toughness.
!!!!!!!
RUN IT
All Matthews
Second ‘t’ optional.
And Mathews.
YES YES YES
Sweet!
Alright JMatt and RMat!!!!!!
Is that the nicest throw and catch Bradford to Matthews we got this year? That we were supposed to get more often?
Bradford had 3 really good throws on that drive. The wheel route to Murray, The pass to Matthews, and the one Austin dropped.
He did and is getting really close to using his game quota
ha!
Mathewssssss
ALL THE MATHEWS!!!
Wooooohhhhooooooo!!!!!!
Oh my god, we’re leading this game.
94 yard drive
It’s like this guys. YEAH MAT(T)HEWS!!!!!!!
Mat(t)ews’s!!!!!
Murray turns that into a 5 yard loss
If Lee is allowed back, the concussion protocol doesn’t work. He was out cold.
is it a team doctor or independent doctor?
he did look out
Independent doctor now. There’s also an observer that can radio down to the refs to stop play and get players off the field.
Man…for a second there, I was hoping that was a Hardy injury.
cowboys loosing Lbs like we loosing OLs
And how we loose ILBs
It’s kind of ironic. Dallas finally gets smart and drafts OL and tries to manage its cap, then it gets hit with all these bad injuries.
Second half awakening again
Let’s hoping that drive was the game’s turning point
If Sean Lee doesn’t come back, that’s your turning point
Jordan Matthews should be ashamed of Jerry Rice wearing Cowboys gear
Hell, I’m ashamed of Rice wearing Dallas gear!
I hate those commercials. Ditka in Packers gear? They’re blasphemous.
Beautiful drive. More please!
Looks like Lee was walking off.
looked like he was taking helmet off
Does Michaels and collinsworth seem bored and apathetic to what is happening and indifferent to the outcome?
honestly who wasnt?
This isn’t like the Raiders-Steelers game earlier today: non-stop action
Its sad that the NFL can make universally supportable causes like Breast Cancer Awareness and the Military seem gross and overdone
Oh, oh! I have a new favorite ending to the game. After Murray trucks Hardy for the final coffin nail, the Cowboy cheerleaders run onto the field and start stomping him with their boots. They jog off high kicking with blood-splattered white boots.
that’s dark.
Yes, it is. I like it.
and the jury acquits.
BG x2!
how the fuck didnt we get that bal
About time BG got his 2 sacks per game he called for.
We need our takeaway!
i hate that guy so much
So, so much.
Just break him in half.
As I was typing the same sentence
kudos for Chip for going wheel route right after Lee went out. It seemed like Andy didn’t do that enough.
Nice coverage Jenkins
Are you kidding me?
Goddamn Cole Beasley…
Man I hate tiny Caucasian receivers…
You mean the wes welkers
Riley supports him
i hate Cowboys receivers…
Cole f-ing Beasley?!?
Maybe that’s why we dont blitz more often.
Great spin Barwin
i had to decide between riley cooper and cole beasley for a spot start tonight. I decided wrong
Our stud LBs not so studly
I take it back and hide
come on d. dont shit the bed
that’s such a BS call.
Awful call.
Garbage call
Kendricks. Pure Fired Up
Non-hesitant Kendricks is the good Kendricks.
Let’s get an interception!!
At least we looked like we knew what we were doing before the ball was snapped
come on takeaway!
Defense is due for a turnover
Graham has forced two fumbles; a little unlucky we didn’t recover at least one.
I hate you
Put a freaking CB on him safety is not cutting it
Beasley is a tough match up for Jenkins. He’s too quick
Got to admit that Cassel has looked pretty accurage on some of those throws.
Um, holding refs. That’s what its called when they grab our guys.
Put Thurmond on Beasley please
Maxwell finishing the play strong.
If I go for the “strip” and don’t try to tackle, is it still a missed tackle?
Maxwell so soft
Yup. The only thing he hasn’t done is give up big bombs like he did the first 2 weeks
Batwing kendricks and Jenkins have all covered Beasley, I guess there is no option better than a safety
Oh, nice tackle there by Jenkins.
defensive holding is automatic first down no matter the yards needed for the first. PI is spot of the foul. But offensive pass interference is 10 yards. Does not make sense. If you are a WR and the ball is under thrown, tackle the CB.
NO
How different would this game look if we recovered that fumble
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE COVER THAT GUY?!
Cole Beasley…All-Pro
and Matt Cassell
Ouch. That was rough to watch.
Brady to Welker!!!
OH wait..
That drive was all about not having a slot corner to cover those little quick guys
Whatever are you referring to?
But we got that 5th
Good thing the Eagles have a slot corner who can cover. Oh wait they dumped that guy for nothing
Who oddly hasn’t seen the field at all in Pittsburgh
Still take him over what Rowe or biggers have done in the slot. Been an issue more often than not.
Just as losing Mathis had been. Kelly the GM screwing kelly the coach
Beasley owns Jenkins right now. Vomits.
There are times not having Boykin has hurt. Not as much as I thought it might, but there are times.
So much for the “Malcolm Jenkins can play the slot as well as any cornerback” theory.
What made you think he could? The guy was a bust at CB.
I never thought so. But a lot of people said trading Boykin/losing Shepherd to injury were no big deal because Jenkins could do the job.
Jenkins can cover well like a Mathews type slot but never a quick guy
I really hate Beasley. He looks like a freaking hobo.
His bindle is the Dallas offense.
“Bindle”?
The iconic “stick and wrapped bandana” luggage of a hobo. In other words, he’s carrying the offense. Always a great joke when you have to explain it. Apologies…
I’m just happy to learn a new word!
Put it in your brain bindle!
Can someone explain to me why Jenkins is the one covering Beasley?
Bill Davis.
Same reason we used to watch Bradley Fletcher covering Jordi Nelson one-on-one.
I’ll never forget that one game when Patrick Chung was on a 1-on-1 with Dez.
Might want to take Marais off the field in nickel and try putting in someone who physically matches up better in the slot, just not sure we have that guy
Kelly likes tall corners so right now have no experience slot corners , maybe rice but rookie and inactive and where is biggers must be hurt
Matt Cassel: 130.6 QBR (vomits)
Barf
Usually QBR is the ESPN stat which is odd but where 60 is good; the other is called “QB rating”. I assume you mean the latter.
Even better than the 116 QBR he put up against us as a Viking (gouges eyes out with a fork)
Absurd. One of the worst qbs in the league the past 5 years gutting them
Clearly it is a coaching preference, but that seemed returnable to me, at least compared to what most teams do.
Damn Hart should have fell on that fumble
hopefully Lee isn’t back
Don’t piss away this drive
this is exactly where we go 3 and out
Great play for 3rd and 2
You needed 2 goddamn yards.
Fucking Bradford.
How was that on bradford
Listening to it on the radio right now and Merrill Reese blamed it on Bradford. If it wasn’t his fault take it up with MR.
It was a bad playcall by chip
If SB was a very good QB, he might have been able to get rid of it.
Seriously?
Lot of taunting after that sack…
that call on BG was borderline. I know that is whining, but when your team drops balls, etc. you also tend to think the refs aren’t helping.
No, the call on BG was right. He bent over the tackled player and trash talked a guy lying on his back. That is the definition of taunting.
Slicing a guy open and then climbing inside to keep warm is the definition of tauntauning.
Okay you made that up.
Han Solo got there first.
I can still whine about it.
SMH
No no no third and two and decide to pass with no quick option
Two yards = quick throw, but NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chip needs to surrender play calling.
That will happen the day he gets fired and not a day before
Doesn’t Duce handle that?
Looked like a long developing play, Bradford was not looking close in at all, was still waiting for play to develop sheen got hit
Given up on Bradford being the mediocrity he has been to date. The Eagles will have to win with others contributing. You hope he doesn’t commit those few back breaking mistakes
Hopefully we can solve the Beasley issue without unleashing Dez Bryant
No clue how to do that unless double a little with inside linebacker then have safety and corner on Bryant so then open up to the run
Pretty much have to play zone
not sure why we gave up on the run with lee out
It just seems like Chip is just guessing his play calls. There is no identity to to this offense.
Nope. No confidence in anyone or anything with the only productive player player is Mathews
who the fuck is our nickelback anyway
Jenkins apparently.
Yep, we bring in Maragos to play safety
Or certainly a better time for a Murray swing pass with no lee
Hicks needs to finish that play
Does anyone watch NASCAR who does not own a pickup truck or no vehicle?
I’m back…why is this game so close my God were bad
go away!
(no offense)
Wait…what?
we seem to do better when youre gone…
Oh that’s been the case for years now U_U I guess I’ll just go
I think Jerry installed spyware on his computer to read our comments and make adjustments.
I think we scored the moment you left
Tell him to stay away, please.
Hicks just missed the TFL, but still gets credit for that being a short gain rather than a much longer one. He is something.
How long is our takeaway streak? Can we continue it?
THIRD and LONG…
That was an interesting set. They had Kendricks on the outside and Barwin lined up to the inside of him.
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING
I’m about to throw something
Well when you get beat by a future hall of famer like Cole Beasley, you just have to accept it.
I knew who they’d throw to
God damn it.
Get a damn turnover
So Biggers can’t cover him either
Biggers is badders on smallers
He can’t cover anyone really
This is getting ridiculous
Matt Cassell is better than SB
Nice black cat…
Thank you!!!
yes yes yes
HICKS!!!#
My God, Hicks actually is good.
Well goddamn,,,,
Holy crap. Hicks is just good.
Yes!!!!!!!
JORDAN MUTHA FUCKING HICKKSKSKSKSCKSHFKLSDJKFHDJKHDFJKHKDFJSHJKSFHJKSDH
HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICKS
PICK-6!!!
Hicks-Six?
Love it.
Sitting right there… like a lazy Cassel pass…
Thank cassell for being cassell. Just lollipopped it out there
DEFENSIVE ROOKIE OF THE YEAR!
And a Star was Born
Thank God for Matt Cassel!
This dude deserves to be a honorable pro-bowl player.
If we win tonight, I will buy a Jordan Hicks jersey. I have a new favorite player.
Thats totally rationale. I support this
I would love to, but I curse every player when I buy their jerseys.
Can you buy Riley cooper jersey tomorrow?
I consider it. I don’t think they’ll let me get a Truck Nuts #14 jersey though.
Custom order.
I was also considering a #76, Woman Beater jersey.
he already did years ago, clearly.
Last jersey I bought, before he played a down for us, was Asomugha. Barf.
That’s actually a great investment and I might get one too
Hicks=DROY.
Cowboy killer
Gonna call that kid Marboro, the Cowboy Killer
I want this to be a thing
This is setting up a great storyline of the Cowboys despising Hicks for years to come.
JORDAN HICKSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Hicks-Six. Let’s get that going.
Aka Simba Six
Love it.
Pardon my ignorance but can someone please tell me a defensive rookie having a better year?
Marcus peters been pretty good and made lot of plays in primetime games
That’s true. Hicks just made a big one there.
Ms2 was inspirational on the sideline last year
He did an excellent job holding the clipboard and taking notes.
Love Hicks. We can still lose.
Damn you, reality!
Beautiful
Love the TD…but can we get someone to cover Beasley….dude has been extending drives left and right,,,
Biggers couldn’t either and screw that return
am I screwed up b/c sometimes I pause the DVR and just read the comments, then catch up. It’s like the bad is diluted, and the good plays are magnified. I haven’t seen the Hicks play yet.
Well watch it already. It’s only the best play of the season
Hey guys Hicks just got a pick six!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
if we recovered both of those fumbles this would look a lot different.
Remember the collective Uggghh when we drafted him
lets give credit where its due. Oreofstar for leaving. Thank you sir.
…shit
See….
No!!!!!!
Aw, crap…
cant you give us a minute to enjoy..
Of course they did.
We don’t understand “lets keep good momentum rolling”
And just like that we shit the bed on ST….
Huge dropff from last year with a k I have almost no confidence in
And the happy balloon deflates quickly…
Maybe we miss chris polanski…lol
*Prosinski.
And that is why you stick with your board and draft BPA always
So, Sturgis doesn’t atone for inaccuracy woth speed.
Nor leg strength
Those legs are only good for mediocre kicking…
Well at least they can’t tire us out with a long drive, silver lining
How does Bennie Logan bounce off a stiff arm? That doesn’t even seem possible
Gotta be kidding me
WHAT HE DROPPED IT.
Um was it not knocked out?
Holy hell Eli type pass
How
Dez by definition dropped it
You’re shitting me right?
CATCH
No, thats a catch..
Thats a catch fuck this team
Damn. I bet Bryant was good at 55.
Told ya…
Fucking Donovan scramble to Freddie type play
Really kind of a dumb pass. Lucked out.
It’s that kind of year
How are there more Cowboys there (3 to 2) and where the hell was maxwell?
Counting his money….the looks up….ohh shit I gotta play….
That was awful…
fucking sucks.
Unbelievable…
So, offense? Please?
Was that margos and biggers?
If so, no wonder
that ball was in the air for 13 seconds…. HOW>
Nice play. Bunch up receivers then Have them all take out the corners leaving Bryant to catch ball
I’m sorry I just saw on my app that we scored and…I’ll go
Troll
I…
Something positive followed by something colossally stupid.
Rather just lose 55-0
You are telling me rowe can’t be in there over biggers and margors?
yes
we can’t have nice things.
So I’m not gonna sleep tonight
Surprised midget beasly didnt catch that as well.
No but it was Cassell throwing a prayer….because…Cassell.
Cassel is back up to a 120 QBR now.
Cassell got incredibly lucky but his numbers are very good. Just frustrating and why it is a sham this defense is a top 10 unit.
We had 3 different players just laying on the ground.
GREAT OPI THERE
given the penalty WR’s should liberally push off all the time.
Run run run run. Love seeing mathews out there
Run the ball down their throat this drive. Pound, pound, pound. Wear them down.
Uhg, Maragos falls down and give our guys no ground to work with, that the very least he has to stay up and push Dez out of bounds
Great play mathews. He makes things happen
All Mathews and a play Murray has zero chance of making
Mathews doesn’t look 100%
Seeing tonight the logic of having 5-9 and 6-4 inch tall receivers and nothing in between like huff height
Huffs problem isn’t size. He’s a dumbass who still can’t grasp the basics of the playbook or his routes.
And we’re back…
3rd drop tonight.
Mathews can’t catch well at all.
Makes up for it next play.
I think Mathews’ visor caused him to drop that damn ball.
I can get 1m to drop every pass. So can my Mom…and she is 82
…at least he can run.
Terrible ca–great, call, first down!
dont go out mathews!
Love the Barwin fire on the sideline
HURRRY
that was a catch…
How the hell did he catch that??!!
Of course we do circus catches lol
Bradford with another good throw.
Wow Ertz
run run run
Sam playing better.
Nice, let’s get this going.
Great throw by Bradford
CRAMP!!!
Jones faked it?
Fake injury time…
Faking it
Please don’t let this become one of those “gassed” injuries.
Sam has olayed well these last 2 games
I really like that typo, he’s totally olaying well
i’m nervous by every pass. just run it.
Me too. I want to see Mathews run some more.
Time to put in the 3 plays off rule for injuries…
Satan has inflicted me with his torment.
Credit Sammy B for standing in there and getting that ball off perfectly to Sproles.
If Sproles didn’t lose his footing, he would’ve taken off for a TD.
Some of his best passes in this game
whether I’m in a good mood tomorrow or all pissed off hinges on these next few minutes.
It’s a miracle. Jones is apparently fine! Praise be to Jesus
RUN
Edit: RUN but not with Murray
NO FUCKING MURRAY
Murray sweeps need to not happen
deja vu
Please do not call that play when DeMarco is in the game.
I’m shocked, shocked, that Murray to the outside did not work. ‘
Ducking useless stretch play by Murray
Seriously, what the hell is the Cowboys doing??
Saving timeouts.
faking injuries
Yep, Jones coming in after one play. They are faking it now to get substitutions.
Isn’t the #1 rule of running the ball to never stop running until you’re actually down?
Murray has done that all year and I keep waiting to see the guy who keeps his legs pumping after cobtact
Fake ass injuries….if we don’t get the TD here…I think we lose this game….
Dear Mr. Kelly,
We, the Eagles fans, ask that you eliminate those sweeping plays when Murray is in the backfield. It isn’t doing you any justice.
Sincerely,
EaglesHero87
More bogus freaking injuries by the boys. This is some deplorably weak shit
We should just diss dem Cowboys players on the field as we continue our up-tempo.
That’s what Graham was doing.
Can’t really blame them. Rules are set up that way.
And the other problem is you can’t fault the rules on this. Some of these injuries are absolutely fake, but others are not. Putting the responsibility on the refs to decide what is real and isn’t would not be realistic or fair, especially if the NFL values keeping the game safe. So while I hate the blatantly fake injuries where you see the guy looking at the side line completely fine and then jumping to the ground and grabbing a random leg to fake injury, I am not sure of a way to stop the more subtle fake injuries.
Free time outs, uhg, it’s like hiding troops in a hospital, cowards
Gotta get 7 points here.
OK no int please
Feel like that just cost us the game.
Great block Murray (sarcasm)
Horrible pick up by by murray
Pathetic block by murray
29 MISSES!
First time he’s missed a defender all year
Nice design. Murray on hardy 1 on 1
Irving
Either way not the right protection
Wasn’t hardy. #90 is Irving.
ho was blocking Irving? the back had a terrible block.
What the hell was LJ doing?
I swear Murray is still a Cowboy.
Murray whiffed on the block, not that there was anyone open
murray single handedly ruined that drive
Does Celek still play for Chip?
Fuck Dallas.
FG….bull shizz….
Murray couldn’t pick up the blitz but at least he runs those outside runs so well.
Does Lurie’s wife really need a blanket?
To hide under when we lose at the gun.
Maybe they can use that to cover Beasley…
I heard it is a genuine Cole Beasley.
Murray has played real small tonight. Not one play where I have seen him really out in into second or third gear
That drive was so smooth until murray stepped in. Been a theme this season
Does Duce see something we don’t?
Probably the contract
He sees Chip throwing him under the bus
Imagine if we had Gore instead of Murray and used that money on OL
On Maclin and Mathis.
OK. Billy D. Your show.
ugh.
guys guys we have to win this game.
I’ve entered the pleading stage. Please just win. I don’t care how.
Defense except the pick 6 has played small tonight and been up front by this oline
Just let them score
No pressure at all
I feel like we can’t stop Matt Cassel. This is a bad feeling
Is it bad when you start hoping your rookie LB can bail you out yet again?
someone guard beasley
I really hate watching this team. Least fun Eagles team since the Dream Team. Even Andy’s final 4-12 death march wasn’t this maddening.
We knew change was coming then
Time for 11 to kill us…
Beau Allen makes a play!
Need one more Cassel INT
Ballgame play here
PLEASE FUCKING BLITZ ON THIRD DOWN BILLY
if this is a three man rush….
The D is coming up small.
3rd long is automatic unbelievable
Hicks SUX
quiet
Thats it guys
Hicks
Let’s get a turnover here, please.
No pressure
Zero.
Witten made the catch, but that was still solid coverage.
Ugh biggers was on bryantvin slot
Hicks had his hand on it and stil Witten catches it!
Great one on one play by thurmond
Watching witten this team a new one late in games gives me novachek flashbacks from the 90s
send 10 on 3rd down
This game is starting to feel like a loss. We just don’t have enough playmakers. Might be best to miss the playoffs and get some better talent.
Brandon Graham, now would be an excellent time to atone for that bonehead penalty with a sack-fumble-recovery. Just sayin’
Need a stop…
no three man rush…
Who will convert here..I gues mcfadden didnt get his chance yet
A STOP!
Yes!
Biggers!
YES!
cole beasley FTW
Biggers time players make biggers time plays in biggers games?
Beasley now only 2nd Team All-Pro
Biggers finally made a play and then gets up like he is hot shit. Get to the sideline you donkey.
Thank You! Excellent Observation!
Beasley has been killing us all game….the celebration was deserved….maybe?
Not when you have struggled at times. One thing I used to hate about Coleman so much at s. Trash talking all the time and acting like a fool
Quick, someone hide Murray’s helmet!
Winner
Oh, boy – this is our time now.
If it’s murray I don’t think we score
3 minutes. 3 and out is still deadly. But our running game is quickly being phased out of the game by the clock…
IF we were down, yes. But it’s a tied game, and we have 3 time outs. Run game is still valid.
that’s a lot of time. Keep running.
OK. Chip, Sam. Its on you. Prove me wrong and show us that you belong in the NFL by driving for the win.
Boys are taking this game. Guaranteed
This is where signature wins happen for signature QBs. If we had one…
Also, signature kickers…
that one was returnable. WTF?
Rod Marinelli going over the intricacies of fake injuries on the sideline…
I heard they script the first 15 injuries.
i remember when i saw a kickoff return once
twas teh summer of ’13
Time to start Ye Legende of Sam Bradforde!
Allright Genius, whattya got?
Ugh…. return that. Do we not trust our kick return game? He wasn’t even deep in the endzone on that one.
swing pass to murray…
screen play to murray… actually worked decently though
YES!
And on that day, Jordan Matthews found his hands.
He only catches hard ones. Go 81
He has looked very sure handed.
Good catch by Matthews?
Low pass ..scared me
Why’d you run out of bounds, JMatt?
Slow down. Need to eat clock
run run run
too fast guys
too much time left?
Milk the clock Chip!!!!!
Sweet ass handle bar stache by that eagles rep on sideline
Jones made a nice tackle for an injured guy
Still need to get into Sturgis territory. Which could be much closer
milk milk milk
Murray is soooooo slow
Meat on the bone
2 plays in a row saw poor effort blocking downfield, Murray and ertz
I noticed that too. Just stood there and watched. No effort
Only 70 yards to go until we’re in Sturgis range…
what yard are we at btw?
Dallas 31
yes we need approx 31 more yards before we let sturgis on
32. Extra point can be tricky.
Like 40?
About 32
32. Need at least 10 more an eat their timeouts
Time to get ridiculously conservative and settle for a long field goal attempt?
I see this happening…
It is like watching Groundhog Day. get your booties on because it is going to be cold outside
Great, now I have Sonny and Cher in my head
Ned?? Ned Ryerson?
J-MATT LIVES
Forget milking the damn clock. Score a td and worried about the damn time later
I want to run for a TD with 18 seconds left.
if by 18 you mean 0
I was trying not to be too greedy.
fuck
sigh
Oh great
Nice play call chip
TFL. Shocker. ,
get murray the fuck out of htere.
Effin Murray
Thanks for waiting til the final seconds to announce the obvious
All 11 guys on the defense knew what was coming.
What no flag?!
sigh
We lose
Oh, this is really awful.
Clutch throw by Bradford
jesus Austin can’t be the first read on crucial 3rd!!!
oh goodness…
dont miss it
Really…ok good luck
We’re going to lose now.
holy shit
we were going right downfield. Then we ran a stretch play.
Was that stretch? He was tackled right about the handoff so it never developed. That play should have been a pass….
I think chips aura of great new football mind is totslly done by now
O god
STURGIS STURGIS LEGEND STURGIS
Wow…..
i dont fucking beileve it
neither do I
Something’s wrong… he made it?
right I think they switched to another game or something. Or we will just lose in even more dramatic fashion now.
I have to admit, a brick just came out of my… okay, sorry.
Holy shit!!!
S T U R G I S S $SSSS S $$$$$$$$
Dear Caleb,
Thank you. Now please don’t kick the kickoff out of bounds
and no horse collar tackles
I’ll feel better if his kickoff lands in the same spot…
Pray for OT
Just like we were saying: Long, strong, and straight Stugis.
Caleb Sturgis…Philly legend!
1:46 left though Grrrrrr…..Murray…..
I don’t have the heart to tell my son get ready to be disappointed, he is so happy right now
I’m in the same boat with my daughter
Ok D, please don’t have me watching this thing until 1 am
Sturgis: I will give you my soul for this fg!
SatAn: really just a 53 yard fg?
Strugis: yes.
Satan: done deal
with how fast our offense is we shouldn’t have been running out of bounds all those plays.
Rearrange the letters in Caleb Sturgis and you get “Scuba Gristle.”
You also get “Basic Leg Rust” – but not tonight!
good start. continue
Oh what if…
No need to fear, Billy Davis is here!
when the ball is on the ground, just fucking pick it up
Turnover.
no prevent d.
Shoulda picked that.
almost INT
al michales screams like he’s got witten on his FF team
Thurmond had it go right through his hands.
Oh boy. My heart
Nice hit!
YES YES YES
Did Kiko play tonight?
Stop it. Stop it. End it. now
Nice stick
Jordan “SuperSimba” Hicks with the tackle.
punt it!
Andy?
Ok D, I Believe!!!
Kiko who?
I don’t need any more suspense. Just stop them.
Weird being in a close game where we are leading
We need to be leading at the end of the game
BLTIZ
who is 23?
Of course we made it look that easy.
ugh
Of course
huge hold
Why am I not surprised
so much holding there
Oh shit
Hicks holding his chest.
Me too
I hope that’s not a torn pectoral.
Shit
free time out….
OH god no
Great season rook. Torn pec there
For the love of god rush more than 3!
Pec
Shit man….you coulda limped off
are you kidding.
What?? That was a clean play
ot coming up
Bryant just talked shit, where is his 15 yard flag?
Weak stuff
Taunting?
Wha?
and yall think the eagles gonna win,
Time for Cox or bennie to step up
good play.
I want to see that from Maxwell every play
So cheap
how is that pi? bull shit
Our pass rushers are on the ground and awful lot.
Damn, is Cassel good or do we suck?
#2
Both
Bryant took his eye off the ball looking for the flag…
He was right
Bailey can make from 60
disappointment coming
Dumb catch Witten
NONO NO NO
BS
Ok what in the hell
of course they throw the flag
told ya, disappointment coming
Bullshit!!
that is complete shit
Opi
NO NO NO NO NO
That’s BS!
Bullshit
That should be on Bryant!
bad teams find a way to lose
Such a BS Call
Fuck you ref
Un fucking real….. Horrid call
THAT IS COMPLETE SHIT
Dez bull rushed him.
yep. why not though?
Terrible call
Dez wasn’t even looking for it
10 sec runoff
Did they move or was that a makeup call? 🙂
They moved eagles players were calling it
5 yards doesn’t make up for it anyway
I’m surprised that i’m actually happy with Maxwell’s defense this drive. Stop calling good d
makeup
we lose in ot
troll is back
troll is you
They learned the Corner to pick is maxwell not carroll
Refs are afraid of Jerry Jones
Dean Blandino is money well spent.
It speaks volume how the boys have zero respect for maxwell even with Bryant barely able to get back to the line of scrimmage
Refs missed and illegal formation
greaf job refs
SACK!
No no no please no
this is hilarious
jenkins had a bad, bad game tonight
I don’t even know what this team is doing anymore. this is a pathetic display.
Wow, this is just a bad team
sigh
gotta be kidding
Of course
Ha, bounced off the uprights, that’s Eagles’ luck there.
of course.
I fucking hate my favorite football team.
Was going to say the penalty on Jenkins was meaningless but it would have mattered on that FG.
What was he doing anyway looked like he was told to do that
Agree. It was completely intentional to take away the possibility of a TD and waste time.
even that was against the eagles
HAHAHAHAHAHA WOW THIS IS BS
Awful…that we could not get off the field….
Fuck Dallas.
Cassell’s best game since….2013 vs eagles
I swear to god if Huff takes a knee on the kick off I’m never watching another Eagle game.
Liar.
I fucking hate Josh Huff.
You can’t stop that impressive job by cassell in the 2 minute drive
Stfu collinsworth
the hail mary was the kicker
Can we agree the refs are responsible for overtime with that drive?
no, not all of it, the eagles had chances and couldnt win
Liked your old name better loser
really, what was it, mom
Your still a pathetic dick
says your mom
A mom comeback? That is why you are so pathetic at this. It is just sad. you try so hard at and are such a failure. Imagine that is a theme in much of your life accept the level of effort.
Qq
He’s right though
They earn time and a half.
Clearly rigged for OT, more $
game ball to the refs
Why not run that out?
cuz Huff is an idiot
Huff doesn’t decide the guy in front of him does.
I blame Riley Cooper.
Not a huge Huff fun, but I have a hard time putting the blame on him on these returns. Seems clear this is a coaching strategy. I don’t understand why though.
We’re pansies, of course the former #1 ST unit it told to always kneel down always no matter what
So if the plan is kneel down here, what is the harm in attempting a return?
Yep. Another free shot.
Why doesn’t he just run it out… If we are just gonna kneel
Josh Huff need I say more?
No. Its Fipp’s responsibility to make sure Huff understands the situation.
Fumble would not be a good thing in that situation.
Cowboys only send one? Never seen that before
Tails!
TOLD YOU
Eagles got refball’d pretty hard.
Oh Good. More Hochuli. Its my lucky day.
The thought as to who makes the call on the toss was interesting
I’m assuming Bradford is going to take the snap, run all the way back to our own endzone and take a safety because that’s the way this stupid fucking game has gone.
lol
Orlovski special
i like the confusion on whether they wanted to receive
What’s the word on Hicks?
I don’t think we want to know.
Good point
Late for work tomorrow, I hope its not as depressing as my job
3 and out.
oh I just noticed how late it is. This is brutal. Then if they lose it’s even worse.
troll loser
Actually, I think most Eagle fans are programmed to expect a loss. Just who we are. No need to hide it.
I definitely expect it. But I have to stay up and see it.
Maragos sure can call a coin flip. Can’t turn his head around to stop a Dez Bryant jump ball, but the man can call a coin toss.
He nailed that mother!
huff return for TD FTW
hahahah
Or another 3 and out…
i didnt say this week.
quickest 3 and out in the league, coming up
Murray looks to be heading on the field
Hey Team, I throw you catch we win? Thanks Sam
I like that Chip will be incentivized to score a TD. They seemed to change their O last time once they got into FG range.
I’m going to be dead tired at work tomorrow, god I hope it is worth it
10% we win. I know that doesn’t seem right. But true.
A tie…how appropriate that would be.
FALSE START ARE YOU KDIDING
Well that’s a good way to start. Idiots.
just like the start of the game
he got more than almost all of it…
run the ball
Good good. Now mathews time
RUN THE BALL, NORTH-SOUTH. YES!!!
Murray, Matthews, Spoles…repeat
Throw, for 1
big gain
Worst officiating ever just sayin
Matthews playing with a lot more confidence tonight. Good thing to see
and he gets a false start
well, until then
and here we go
choke.
and thats the mathews we’ve all come to love
OMG. That play worked.
Murray wants this game and I like it.
We need the Murray sweep play, I totally said
haha me too
i love that sweep play to murray
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Murrrrrrrrrray
That Murray sweep is awesome.
fake injuries coming soon
Indeed
wheel route would be nice
Don’t freaking dump it off to a guy behind the LOS and totally draped
4 down territory
Run it and plan on going for it on 4th
Murray finally playing balls out a bit. Nice to see. Run angry
go for it
why didnt he keep going outside
Go for it. go go go
OMG
Go for it
unreal how many times are they gonna trhow short
never fails
how do you always run 1 yard short routes
Matthews wtf? You know where the 1st down marker is moron?
unreal, fumble
That took balls
lol
Oh wtf
well theres that
ARE YOU KIDDING
fumble, ballgame
knee down!!!!!!
He was down
GET THE FUCK OUT REF
gettin tired of all your cursing
First down Eagles
HE’S DOWN! HE’S DOWN!
down, down, down
Down, thank God!
Our ball
I NEED MEDICATIONS
Of course these inbred refs rule cowboys without seeing anything
There goes our momentum.
refs really want us to lose
1st down. He’s down. Our ball. That should deflate the cowbitches. Fuck Dallas
He’s down. And these refs are awful. Nice timeout for them
Eat shit Hochuli
Hochuli and his cowboy minions suck!
he’s freaking down
There is like a solid 40% chance they still call this a fumble
I wouldn’t doubt it
I know this is a joke….but…
That shotgun run with a 1 yard to go is just so discomforting
Refs are gonna get reprimanded after this game
Is Blandino going to call them from the Cowboys’ party bus?
I heard Hawaiian Eagle and his daughter yelling there!
Hochuli..time to retire
They’re literally doing everything in their power to give this game to dallas
totally disagree
Are you joking? Two bad pi calls and a missed illegal formation and a bs fumble ?
meanwhile, dallas gets to catch their breath
Gutsy call Chip
Given the way the D is playing? No.
Hey, Bradford is bleeding. Good boy.
Come on chip, td and end this
Finish it
YES!!!!
I hate contrived rigged OT games.
Now That was a gutsy call 🙂
woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Wait, what?
Eat a bag of dicks….. Feel dumb wasting your night trolling for nothing?
YES YES YESYESYEYSEY
ALL IS FORGIVEN POPE ALL IS FORGIVEN
GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME!
yeah
Walk off
GOOD NIGHT FUCKING DALLS!
Thank you….and good night….
Boom goes the dynamite!
yes!
Matthews!!
FInally good god Matthews didn’t screw up
FUCK DALLAS!!!!
BRADFORD FTW!
Buh Bye, Jerruh!
FLY EAGLES FLY!
YES!!
we all have to be fans for at least another week or so. The season didn’t just end!
…But Dallas’ DID!!!
yes it did.
Suck my dick Aaron!!!
awesome
Enjoy the basement with the Redskins LOL
great blocking by huff
Nice block by Huff on the goal line too. Hell yeah.
redemption game by bradford and matthews
Best game of the year for Bradford with several really good throws
Only because there were no drops. But a good win nonetheless.
I counted 3 drops tonight
Yeah, at least two. One almost became an end zone INT it bounced off so nice and high.
You’re right. I should have said no drops in important spots.
still some time to work this offense thing out and still make playoffs.
PLayoffs? We talking about playoffs?
Dude…like I said…8-8 is who we are….we are halfway there….
IM BACK LETS GOOOO!!!!!!!!!
lol nice
Ok, you can stay now
Sooo much sweeter when it’s against Dallas.
Thanks Team.
Hoo shit I won’t be able to fall asleep
I want more of this Bradford
YESSSSSSSS!!!!!
now im going to be up for another hour
awesome. We saw some nice things this game. I still think we are on the cusp of being a good team.
On the cusp meaning, maybe next year with some new players? 🙂
3 seconds after a big win and you need to be a downer?
Sorry. It is good to win.
Tallest midget baby. Tallest midget
Well Dallas is a 2-6 team for a reason tho..
Would have sucked so bad to bookend their 5 game losing streak
Great win. Our running game is legit btw.
I can’t wait to watch the game later lol
Beat Dallas and Hochuli… not a bad two-fer.
Seriously, some of those calls were just so terrible.
Hochulian, even…
Edlian, even still.
Dallas’ tears taste so good right now.
Does my ass taste good, Jerry?
LOL, you tell him!
Shaq ref?
Put an F-ing fork in the ‘boys!
so happy right now
Really hoping Hicks is OK.
Doesn’t sound good especially since nbc can’t speak to him
Well, he is probably getting x-rays, receiving treatment, doesn’t want to talk cause he is hurt, etc.
if he strains or tears his pec, is he done for the year? guess what it is. You’re qualified.
Honestly I have no idea. Pec tear, absolutely. Strain? Several grades, depends how bad it is.
So weird if it is a pec tear…it was a tackle against cole Beasley who weighs 160 lbs….
Hopefully it’s a strain and not a tear
Aaron….Where did you go???
Funny, three star ILBs in and out of health and the rookie being hurt worries me the most.
Almost 300 combined yards (294) J Matthews and Murray all you whiners hahaha. Good reverse karma.
Running game was legit against a good front.
Jordan Matthews..150 rushing between Murray and Ryan Mathews.
Yeah, 150+ yards any game is good running wise. Murray and Mathews are a good Thunder/Lightning against a defense. Murray is a bruiser, but Mathews has a bit more speed.
Ryan is tremendous but with his injury history you need Murray or another reliable back.
I like how they are using both to be honest. Murray is a bruiser, but Mathews has a bit more speed.
We beat up some 4th string ILB while they did the most damage. Consistency is what the “whiners” are calling for.
lmao. you’re still fucking crying.
You have to tip your ten gallon cap – Greg Hardy showed some great leadership.
Dennis Kelly what a surprise at RT.
I thought so too. Lane Johnson looked pretty good as well. If JP comes back, I don’t like the shuffle that will place at guard again.
The guards wouldn’t shuffle. Only the tackles.
I wasn’t sure if Peters was coming in to play guard. I guess that’s next season.
That’s never been anything more than people day dreaming.
JORDAN MATTHEWS CAUGHT THE BALL!
AKJ;ALSDF;AHJF;AHF;KJAKSDFHKJASNFASJDFJAFKLJASKLFJNSAKL;FJ;LAKSNFENAVNAFS;KJSANFAS;NF;KNWIRH38ROAJH38UYR832UJIWJSIFJ#RWR%I#J5489UQ3WTIE$%JU438UTIADNGAHFD8GH34QIJ5#$W%
Your pants are in the dryer. I thought you might need a new set.
I’m still in shock
Ha ha HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jordan had an excellent game today. Dont think he dropped a ball
Btw, Credit to Bradford. He made some excellent throws tonight.
I agree. He just needs to continue that throughout the rest of the season.
And they mostly weren’t dropped.
Ok so now let’s hope hicks isn’t done for year
Yup. Kiko doesn’t look that good right now and Hicks has been dominating.
Very impressed with Bradford and Matthews tonight.
and the OL
I’m just now hearing Hicks got injured… Was it bad? Please tell me its not
strained or torn pec looked like
Damnit, he’s been one of our best players
Then we’ll keep quiet. Didn’t look good.
Looked like a pec or shoulder or something in the upper torso.
Shoulder…looked like it might be separated the way he was holding it coming off the filed..however the replay in slow mo did not look that bad….
ok good night we’ll take this up tomorrow. Let’s enjoy it. No matter what happens next this is sweet.
I am not only glad we won, but we didn’t look like crap in getting the win. Baby steps.
I think this is important. They still start slow, but 3 quarters of play are better than 2.
Yeah that actually resembled a good competitive professional football game, I bet NBC is surprised
Great win. I’m a bit concerned about the play of our secondary (bad calls notwithstanding) and the health of Hicks. Offense just has to find a way to get started earlier in games. Remember, as good as this was , Dallas was w/o Romo and Sean Lee for much of the game.
Life without Sean lee is a common occurrence for Dallas opponents…
We didn’t have Peters.
plus in my pool I had Eagles less about 5, so the TD and covering is nice. In the scheme small, but it’s the cherry on top.
UPOS
Sounds like a missed a hell of a game. And I wish I started the eagles D in fantasy this week.
I started eagles D on my fantasy team. And put demarco murray, eagles d and jordan matthews on my draftkings sunday/monday night primetime matchup..off to a good start in that match
Nice. I had to pick up Jordan M because I had some bye weeks and injuries. So glad I did.
Bradford 103.4 rating. Well played, SB.
I think (IMO) he’s playing better each week. It helps that there’s less drops as well.
This is a big win tonight against a tough opponent. Dallas as much as I hate them have a very good defensive front. We banged out over 150 yards rushing.
I think the key now is to see if we can build off of this.
I think only Huff and Ryan Mathews had drops… and Austin had a big one ealry
I don’t think Huff ever got on the field again after that awful “drop”.
? He had a key block on the winning TD…
Yea my bad I meant another ball thrown to him
Cassel with 105.0. Not sure how I feel about that.
Not pretty but a W, bury the 2015 Cowboys, and the Eagles’ season stays relevant.
Nothing prettier than burying the Cowboy’s season
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>1000 comments. woot.
It took overtime but we did it!
strong effort.
man what about sturgis with that FG.
I want to believe he’s getting better and more consistent.
So kidnapping his dog and holding it for a ransom of never missing a kick again during his time here didn’t do anything for him?
Any word on Hicks…. please be minor. Please be minor
waiting to hear in the PC
As for the over/under question on Cassel from earlier… it was under. He finished with 299 yards.
said no idea about hicks
Next stop, Miami. If we can take care of them the Lions and Bucs should be cakewalks until we get onto the spanking saddle for our date with New England.
Now just need NYG to stumble a little.
I’m not sure there are any cakewalks with this Eagles team unless we get a bunch of turnovers.
Miami actually isn’t that good.
Neither are we really. Real talk.
True I think we can win by 10+ points if Bradford and the WRs show up
Just did a little research, this is the first eagles OT win since they beat the Browns in 2004. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/200410240cle.htm
proof: superbowl rematch vs the Pats as predicted by Banner
I can only hope.
Full list of Eagles OT games if anyone’s interested – http://goo.gl/xe4Ag1
Miami got run over for 266 yards. Enjoy the feast next week M&MS
We just beat Dallas.
