Eagles vs Packers

The Eagles continued to show their dominance of the NFC by beating the Packers 47-17 on Sunday. McNabb put up some of his best numbers ever throwing for 464 yards and 5 touchdowns. He completed 32 of 43 passes, including starting the game 14 for 14. Westbrook had a big game, but more so as a receiver out of the backfield than a running back. He had 12 rushes for 38 yards, but 11 receptions for 156 yards and 3 receiving touchdowns. Of the top 4 teams in the NFC (Eagles, Falcons, Packers, Vikings) the Eagles were the only team to win on Sunday. The Eagles now lead the Falcons by 2 games for home field advantage. It's pretty clear the road to the Super Bowl is going through Philadelphia again, and this time the playoffs won't end there for the Eagles. The most important thing for them now is to stay healthy and not lose their focus since the best teams left on their schedule are the Rams and Bengals, both of whom are only at .500.
