Redskins Taking on Eagles With Hopes High for Postseason
Surprisingly enough, DeMarco Murray led the team with 27 yards on five carries.
It was fitting in that the champion of the imperfect NFC East was topped Saturday night in a boo-fest of a game in that might be remembered for points unscored by both teams. For some reason, as a cohesive unit, we’re just not that good.
“I want to go into the offseason with the same quarterback”, Ertz told reporters after the loss. “There were some moments in this game when we could have burrowed our head, but it was great to get a victory and clinch the NFC East”.
Consider the Cousins all-time brain cramp a story for another day.
500 as well as locking down the NFC East title and a playoff spot.
“I wish I had the answer to that, then we would stop it”, Kelly said of the miscues. And he’s not anxious about being fired. “But I’m going to continue to work as hard as I can”.
“Anybody in my situation, if they are anxious about being fired, they probably already should’ve been fired”, Kelly said. Cousins threw a two-point pass to Jamison Crowder for a 38-17 lead. With the loss now confirmed, it is evident that the loss is on Chip Kelly, and the Philadelphia Eagles may be worse off in the future if he is not fired after this season. It was the 12th grab of the night for Ertz, who finished with 13 receptions for 122 yards. Cousins tops 300 yards routinely these days, and has thrown for eight touchdowns in the last two weeks. When we watch the Eagles Redskins game live streaming or on TV tonight, Jackson should be a primary target of Cousins down the field. Bradford completed all four of his passes for 50 yards.
The Eagles are going in the other direction. It also would end a streak: Cincinnati hasn’t won a Monday-night game on the road since 1990. The Eagles sliced, diced and dealt Washington on the drive.
Washington entered halftime with a 16-10 lead, which would have been larger if not for Cousins’ brain fart.
The Eagles dodged another bullet when Washington drove from its 29 with 29 seconds left to the Eagles’ 6 yard line with six seconds left. With no timeouts remaining, the clock ticked off the final seconds with the ball at the Eagles’ 7. He’s 22 for 25 on field goals and 32 for 32 on extra points.
“I think you are always exactly what your record is”, Barwin said. On a third-and-2, they wanted to get the ball to Murray around the right edge.
DeAngelo Hall returned Murray’s fumble 17 yards for a momentum-changing TD in the third quarter.
That’s when fans began filing out.
“As far as the future, I’d like to be back here”, Bradford said. “We’ve got a few more games on our schedule we’re excited about”. Obviously, he came back brilliant.
Kelly got rid of several star players, including DeSean Jackson, LeSean McCoy and Jeremy Maclin. Knowing what I did for the city and the community – that part is frustrating. He’s only gotten better since the first meeting. That guy over there who is the coach makes all the decisions. I mean, they still had a lot of yards. The Eagles had to settle for a field goal.
On third-and-nine at the 40 of Washington they had a golden opportunity to take the lead.
On their next drive, Bradford floated a pass to Agholor in the end zone. Bradford looks more comfortable in the pocket as well and is better at making a subtle move to elude the pass rush. They went 80 plays on six plays, with the help of two penalties.
“It just sucks”, Jason Kelce said. With Maxwell out of the lineup with an injury, Rowe played well in coverage. The Redskins passing attack is strong, but their running game is not. “And we can’t walk before we crawl, put it like that”, Pro Bowl tackle Trent Williams said.
