Yesterday’s 32-27 comeback win over the Washington football team was filled with a plethora of delightful Eagles highlights.
DeSean Jackson caught two touchdown bombs of more than 50 yards. Carson Wentz sprinted out of collapsing pockets and piled up 3rd down conversion rates reminiscent of 2017. The defense swarmed all over the place in the second half and made life miserable for Case Keenum. The running game got going. Alshon made some plays.
It was all a lot of fun, but it’s possible none of it would have happened were it not for one key decision by Doug Pederson on the opening drive of the third quarter.
