Eagles 31 Packers 9
It Was Over When......
Donovan Mcnabb scored his 2nd rushing touchdown of the night to give the Eagles a 31-9 lead which they would never relinquish. I would have said it was over earlier, but you never know with the Eagles these days.
The Game Ball Goes To......
Quarterback Donovan Mcnabb who completed 16 of his 3o passes for 288 yards and 2 touchdowns, and rushed for 2 touchdowns as well. Thus, he had a part in all 4 of the Eagles touchdowns on the night.
The Stat of The Game Is......
o, as o points of any kind in the 2nd half for the Packers. The Packers actually led 9-7 at halftime, but by the time the 4th quarter started the Eagles had scored 17 unanswered points, en route to 24 unanswered, for a 24-9 lead.
The Bottom Line is......
This was another nice win for the Birds, but like last week against the 49ers, this was a game the Eagles were expected to win. Also they didn't play as well as they could have. They should have had at least 17 points at the half, but Correll Buckhalter fumbled the ball away at the goal line twice and the Eagles as whole played pretty sloppy at times. Still, a win is a win, so I am happy the Eagles won and I give them credit for playing a great 2nd half. Now that they have won this one the real fun can begin, yes that's right T.O and the Cowboys are coming to town on sunday. If the Eagles really want to be back on top of the NFC east, they will have to win this one, and prove that they can still win the big ones.
