Can't wait for Rush to comment on McNabb's performance. ;-)
That cancels out the Washington loss. Just goes to show, in the end, you end up with the record you should have.
I guess you are a yankees and lakers fan as well. Red Wings perhaps?
Might as well root for the Cowboys, because USC is going to kick Texas' butt in the Rose Bowl.
Jaw-dropper.
I tuned in at 7-20 and thought they were gonna lose this one. Turned over to Leno through the monologue and headlines.
Turned back just about the time Dallas intercepts and runs back for a TD.
Great game. I hate those close ones. lol.
I am amazed. Absolutely amazed. As a Cowboy fan I am giddy!
Oh...how 'bout 'em...
However, Roy Williams comes through in the clutch, the Dallas offense has a pathetic night, and the Eagles commit FOURTEEN penalties.
McNabb looks done, to me.
Broncos are better. :P
Ping a LING!!!
Eagles gotta go to the Giants next, who haven't allowed an offensive TD in 3 straight games. Eagles will find it tough to score, for sure.
Here's hoping Eli bounces back.
BTW... some badddd interceptions thrown lately by NFL QBs. That last McNabb one... oy. Just like Eli yesterday.
Holy Cow(boys)!
I humbly request to see cheergirls.
Thank you.
My Boyz are in first place! How 'bout dem Boyz!!!!
Way to go Roy Williams & my Boyz......
GREAT VICTORY!
I know how much Parcells was hurting and his usual disapproval or smiles were definitely missing - the team was flat after the long layoff and he just didn't have the emotional energy to rally them.
When Terry Glenn scored I thought, Dallas has some good players and they're going to have to step up and get it done and then Williams picked off McNabb and scored.
Now that the Eagles are 4-5, McNabb needs to get his hernia taken care of - even if he can take it, the unpredictability of how well he will be able to function just hurts the team.
Glenn TD catch, Williams interception return lift Dallas
PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Now the Eagles' problems are much bigger than just Terrell Owens.
Roy Williams intercepted Donovan McNabb's pass and ran it back 46 yards for a touchdown with 2:43 left, leading the Dallas Cowboys to a 21-20 comeback victory over Philadelphia on Monday night in the Eagles' first game since T.O. was told not to return to the team.
The Eagles were in control until Drew Bledsoe connected with Terry Glenn on a 20-yard TD pass with 3:08 left that cut it to 20-14.
On the second play after the ensuing kickoff, McNabb's poorly thrown pass was picked off by Williams, who outran McNabb as the quarterback tried to tackle him. McNabb was hobbling badly after that play, though his injury wasn't immediately known.
The Eagles had a final chance, but David Akers' 60-yard field goal attempt failed miserably.
McNabb, who is playing with a sports hernia that will require surgery, played one more series after the interception, before giving way to Mike McMahon for the Eagles' final possession.
The reigning NFC champion Eagles (4-5) lost their third straight game for the first time since 1999 and fell further behind in the NFC East standings. Dallas (6-3) is tied with the New York Giants for first place, one game ahead of Washington.
For a while, it seemed the Eagles had overcome the distractions caused by Owens' departure and were headed toward an important victory. But McNabb made one of the costliest mistakes of his seven-year career.
Owens was suspended one day before Philadelphia's 17-10 loss to Washington last Sunday. He was told not to return to the team a day later following a series of incidents, including harsh criticism of the organization and McNabb.
A grievance hearing for Owens' four-game suspension is scheduled for Friday, but the Eagles plan to deactivate the All-Pro wideout the rest of the season no matter the outcome.
Brian Westbrook had 86 yards rushing and one TD and Lamar Gordon ran for 57 yards as Philadelphia's pass-heavy offense tried to offset the loss of its best receiver by keeping it on the ground.
But Philly's wideouts -- Reggie Brown and Greg Lewis -- combined for just six catches for 57 yards. Owens had 47 catches for 763 yards and six TDs in seven games.
