Sloppy Blowout

Eagles win 30-10 but look sloppy in the process



Those are two words you rarely see in the same sentence of phrase, but the Eagles were sloppy in their blowout win over the Browns last night.

First off, before I get crucified, the Eagles should get credit for overcoming their Monday Night jinx and beating who they should have.

By no means was it a great win and there was some real head-scratching moments, but there was no moment where I or any rational person thought they would lose.

Steve Olenski breaks down this snooze fest in his Morning After blog.

G Cobb thinks B West should have been worked a little less in this game.

And, Jon Runyan hit a milestone last night-his 200th NFL game and 190th consecutive start.

And, once again they nearly gave up a TD before the half. Just what McNabb was thinking on that throw is beyond me. The DeSean Jackson pass on the goal line was another Andy Reid special (stupid play).

All in all it was an OK win by the Birds. Asante Samuel took advantage of a horrific throw by Dorsey and looked like a player that deserved that fat contract...until he nearly dropped the damn ball before the goal line DeSean Jackson style. Fortunately the Birds got the extra point off before the play could be reviewed.

The Eagles are on a short week and take on the Skins next who are in the midst of their annual late-season implosion. Ah, it feels good to be right. Not only was I right about Zorn being a boob, but the Skins have imploded once again.

That's all for now.
