The Eagles Blow away the win in the last two min of the game, possibly even blowing their season away. The Eagles got a late score to lead by 4, which at that time seamed like it would be plenty to win this game. But with 1:57 left the Eagles pinned the Bears Down at there own 3 yard line. With no time outs left Bears were runnning a hurry up offense. They just kept completing pass after pass, and eventually with 9 seconds left Brian Griese hooked up with Mushin Muhammaded for the go ahead score. The Eagles lost in heartbreak fashion 19-16, falling to 2-4 on the season.
The Eagles let there whole fan base down, allowing a team who is ranked 27th in offense, drive 97 yards in two minutes to beat you. There is no way a defense should allow this to happen, unless there was a freak play or they weren't putting out 100% effort.
Another problem with the Eagles is there red zone offense. The eagles had many chances to open up this game, and many previous games. But they are unable to put the ball into the end zone, instead they have been settling with field goals. If the Eagles plan on winning some games the rest of the season I believe they need to start running the ball in the red zone. Instead of throwing it every down and leaving 3rd and longs.
Eagles will travel to Minnesota next week to battle Adrian Peterson and the vikings. A matchup of two 2-4 teams
