Friday's Football at Four: Andrew Dicecco talks Eagles re-signing Richard Rodgers and what that means for the Tight Ends along with perspective on Wide Receivers
In what has been a historically bad season for the Philadelphia Eagles, more history was made Sunday. The Eagles lost to the Browns for the first time since 1994.
The Philadelphia Eagles have not had success coming out of a bye week under Doug Pederson. They lost for the third straight year out of the bye and this 27-17 defeat essentially wiped out the cushion they had on top of the NFC East.
The Philadelphia Eagles found a way to sneak out of Lincoln Financial Field with a victory thanks to Carson Wentz and the offense. They were down 21-10 with 6 minutes left in the game and Wentz led the team on back-to-back drives to take the lead. His most noticeable throw was to Boston Scott down the sideline for the game-winning touchdown and let me tell you, this throw was ELITE. This was coming after a Jason Kelce facemask which brought the Eagles away from the goal-line and you could argue it was a blessing in disguise based off of their redzone numbers. Doug Pederson had so many head-scratching plays, I don't even know where to begin.
It was an ugly game, but the Eagles pulled it out in the final minute and moved back into first place in the NFC East with a 22-21 win over the New York Giants.
