The Eagles didn’t have an answer in the red zone. They marched the ball inside the red zone five times and were only able to turn only two of those drives into touchdowns.
What can you say about a huge offensive line which can’t open up a hole for a one yard gain? A one yard gain can’t be picked up by the Birds.
It’s pathetic. It was also sad looking out there and seeing Brian Westbrook on the sideline again.
They’re reporting that he had another concussion. Yes another concussion after taking a couple of weeks off for the one he suffered against the Skins.
He just can’t stay healthy. Even when he legs don’t let him down he still wasn’t able to go.
Andy Reid admitted afterwards that the fact that they couldn’t punch the ball in from the one probably cost them the game.
He also pointed out all the cost penalties. I thought immediately about linebacker Tracy White.
Reid said Westbrook got hit in the head again. The coach said it was vicious hit and he has no idea when the running back is going to play again.
He said there were some positive things that he saw from the young guys who were in there taking over for injured teammates.
It was career day for Jason Avant who made a unbelievable catch in the fourth quarter.
I don’t think a lot of Stacy Andrews. He is either hurt or just not that good. I thought Todd Herremans did a good job at left tackle. He only had one holding penalty.
