Domination
Eagles dominated, sorta. Defense gave up a ton of passing yardage but when everything the offense does works (this was a week to finally run a successful end around...) you'll get the final score of 56-21. The offense was the opposite of the previous 2 games. Today it was all TDs and no FGs in the redzone and only the time McNabb got sacked and fumbled did they not score. Amazing how a change in opponent makes everything look easy. All the plays where as soon as an Eagle gets the ball and the defense is right on him were different today. Today the receivers and Westbrook on the dump-offs had a ton a space. And those were the plays where the Lions were actually covering people. The Lions horrible tackling also contributed to the Eagles great success.
