Eagles vs Redskins

The Eagles played the Washington Redskins this week (the Eagles' first inter-division game of the season) and held on for a 27-25 victory. Once again the Eagles were without Vincent, Taylor, and Dawkins on defense. Fortunately for the the Eagles, the Redskins passing game was pretty bad. Lots of bad throws and dropped passes. The most important overthrow being on the 2 point conversion attempt by the Redskins at the end of the game, which would have sent it into overtime. The Eagles offense looked good in the first quarter and through most of the second quarter, but after that, they couldn't get a lot of good drives going. This also marked the Eagles' first win at their new stadium. Next week, they play at Dallas, who is currently leading the NFC East with a 3-1 record.
