    Feel like no 50/50 calls by the refs have been going our way this year.

    That's only making excuses for this God awful defence. Offence always going to get those calls.

    Last 3 possessions for Arizona. 3 TDs.

    Nah the Garcon push off against the Bengals comes to mind. Brutal call that went against the offense and cost us the game.

    We've had a lot of them this year for sure.

    Maybe. But I'm sure there's been one we've gotten that we can't remember.

    And there's the game.

    At least that interception saved us the heartbreak of scoring the TD then throwing the fade on the on the 2pt conversion and failing miserably.

    Apparently Gruden went ballistic on the team after the game yesterday.

    I know they were very sloppy and probably deserved an earful but I think he needs to look at himself, Barry and McVay as well.

    They had over a week to get them ready for this game yet it was the same old predictable offence and the same old dreadful defence. They seemed surprised that the Johnson and Fitzgerald were the ones making plays.

    Interesting stat

    It must be nice having an offence that can score a TD from inside the 10.

    Heartbreaker but we can still make the playoffs, because the rest of the NFC is so Damn bad

    Dodged a bullet there.

    I think the only way the Eagles aren't going to score when they have the ball is if the mess up themselves. Again, the defence has been awful so far.

    Dunbar, take a seat on the bench

    Another awful call on 3rd and long. The receiver's route was only about 6 yards and there were 2 defenders on him as the ball reached him so even if he caught it he would have been short.

    Although those 6 yards might have made it easier for Hopkins.

    Can't get off the field on 3rd downs again. That was another 3rd and long completion with 0 pressure on Wentz. And the Eagles OL are missing a couple of starters.

    This defence is embarrassing.

    Breeland was awful there.

    Apparently Rex Ryan is getting fired in Buffalo tomorrow. Someone tweeted earlier that the Redskins should go after him as DC.

    I don't remember an Eagles punt in the 1st half so they've gone the length of the field on all of their possessions. The only time they didn't score was the end zone interception.

    Great catch by DeSean there.

    Now the Eagles are even converting on 4th downs.

    Caught another break there with the long snap.

    Let's take advantage.

    Lovely TD.

    Time for the defence to step up now.

    Playing in 2nd gear and 8 points up in the 4th. Riding our luck to an extent but its never a bad sign.

    Yeah definitely got lucky a couple of times. Need to see it out though.

    I usually like this commentating crew (burkhardt was an old Mets guy back in the day) but his mate has made a couple of ridiculous statements.

    1 Joe Barry is a great coach who has done great things in this league. He must have forgotten the 0-16 as DC in Detroit.

    2 The Redskins OL is the second best in the league, or up there with them. What....????

    Everett's an idiot. That's 2 special team 15 yard penalties in a row. 1st one indirectly led to a TD.

    Correct call. Great challenge by Gruden that.

    A win's a win I suppose but that has got to be the worst performance of the season. Considering who they were playing and what the Eagles were missing, that performance was terrible.

    Cam Newton's going to be padding his numbers next Monday.

    Eh .. to be fair the Eagles have beaten the Vikings, Steelers and Atlanta at home. Hardly a walk in the park going to Philly, we're only the second team to win there this season.

    Overall another solid display. I think we can win next week and after this weekend we will need to. Tampa Bay winning yesterday was a disaster for us.
