another escape by the Eagles!

how you manage to let 14 unanswered points happened? the defense was pretty decent for the most part, reducin RB Frank Gore to not much but did allowed a TD pass to him and same with TE Vernon Davis who also ended up with a TD himself...for the most part...no definitive answer as to how good the Philadelphia Eagles are

from the start, the San Francisco 49ers came out swingin and scored 1st with a TD pass from QB Alex Smith to WR Michael Crabtree. luckily for us, we bounced back and Kevin Kolb made a play outside the box to TE Brent Celek, who messed up on a block that flushed Kolb out. besides that 30+ pass or the TD pass, Kolb really needs to stop doin that Romo-Witten relationship where he throws it to him all the time even when he's not open. he's no Dallas Clark or Antonio Gates or Davis! the other 2 TD came from a fumble recovery from Smith, who was chased down by rookie DE Brandon Graham, by S Quintin Mikell and a rushin attempt by LeSean McCoy. McCoy ran for almost 100 yards in a flak jacket for his fractured rib. somehow he managed and handled the ball very well...except for a mistaken play where he slid in the 4th quarter thinkin he had the 1st down and run down the clock...but didn't.

now...DEFENSE on the other hand had their ups and downs. the down: besides Sean McDermott runnin the same play, LB Stewart Bradley got burned a couple of times when tryin to cover Vernon Davis...CB Hoselio Hanson and Dimitri Patterson fillin in for the concussioned Asante Samuel didn't work too well because...Hanson SUCKS! Patterson was ok...becasuse the ups: the had an INT which was helpful, and so did rookie CB Trevard Lindley @ the end of the play as Smith got hit by Trevor Laws. LB Akeem Jordan was replaced by Moise Fokou for the startin job and did great, with a positive 1 arm tackle, bein physical and a forced fumble on Gore. Mikell, of course, with his TD and S Nate Allen ALMOST came up with a sack but overran Smith but had a solid game...

as for some injuries; McCoy seems to be doin ok...QB Michael Vick seems like he could be out for 1 more week but he could make a recovery enough to play against next week for the 4-1 Atlanta Falcons, his previous team. DeSean Jackson seemed like he banged up his knee durin a punt return but later came back in the game; can't say the same for LT Jason Peters who went out with some knee problem and was replaced by the thought-to-be-impressive-turned-out-unimpressive King Dunlap...how Dunlap played made me realized we kinda need Peters :(...and a severe cause for concern is the injury to DT Brodrick Bunkley who looked like he could've hyperextended his left arm...but hopefully he's good to go next week

and some note: newly activated WR Chad Hall caught a very crucial 3rd down conversion pass...Kolb was sacked 4 times and fumbled once, so did McCoy...WR Jeremy Maclin had a solid game too with 95 yards...um...oh yeah, special team SUCKS!! do your job Bobby April! also Todd Heremens fucked up on a TD run by McCoy with a holdin call but did managed to scooped up a McCoy's fumble pretty damn quick...besides that, stupid New York Giants beat the slumpin Houston Texans, the Washington Redskins came back and win with a field goal against the Green Bay Packers and the "Super Bowl bound" Dallas Cowboys is 1-3 thanks the the Tennessee Titans...so good day in the NFC East :D
