that's what it seems like. some of the most ridiculous penalties against us, and not nearly enough against them. nevertheless, the Philadelphia Eagles managed to hold on to the lead as the beat the Indianapolis Colts 26-24
some notes:
-QB Michael Vick looked good comin back from nearly a month off after sustainin that rib cartilage injury; rushin and throwin...especially 0 INT
-he and WR DeSean Jackson linked up early to put the Eagles in an early lead with 10-0. Jackson also looked good as he seems to be fully recovered after that concussion
-and that drive wouldn't be possible if it wasn't for a 62-yard run set up by RB LeSean McCoy - AWESOME!
-even though QB Peyton Manning and his Colts had the lead @ the half and they seemed to be rallyin back down the field to score a field goal, DE Trent Cole and the defense did excellent in pressurin Manning and collapsin the o-line, forcin a fumble...BUT thanks to the ref, the play was nullified due to a brush against the helmet by Cole
-oh well, we still have CB Asante Samuel who scored his 2nd INT from Peyton with 8 seconds left to seal the win - HOO-RAH!!
on some injury note:
-rookie S Nate Allen took a hit and was out with a neck sprain. hopefully he'll recover soon...
-'til then, another rookie, Kurt Coleman took his place on Sunday and did pretty well...him and S Quintin Mikell collided with Colts WR Austin Collie and left him with a serious lookin concussion but luckily he was alert afterward and hopefully he'll be ok too
ps
-Manning got sacked, THRICE! by LB Ernie Sims and DE Darryl Tapp and Trent Cole - woo-hoo!! :D
-also Vince Vaughn (Couples Retreat, Wedding Crasher) and Kevin James (King Of Queens, Grown Ups) were present @ the sideline...seems like they were Birds fan - lol Kevin James fell over the gate as he tried to climb back after shakin fans hands
