I'm just as worried about Jordan Mathews as Maclin. He mans the slot and Sanchez looks for him a lot.
My thought as well...looks like they developed a nice chemistry when they ran scout team or something.

Everyone is slurping Beckham's crank over that catch, and while it was a phenomenal catch, it shouldn't have counted. He drug Carr to the ground right before he jumped to make it.

Just happy this morning. Just another example of a game that would have lost in previous years. I will worry about tomorrow later. Right now Im a towel waving fool.
Absolutely. I take any road division win I can take no matter how it happens.

I kept watching, but it had bad loss written all over it and I didn't think they'd overcome it.

Glad to see them pull it out, but I am worried about Philly's offense and covering Maclin.

We can't stop any receiver worth a damn.
If Dallas will go after Sanchez like they did Manning in the second half I think Philly will be more manageable.

Lots of teams struggled with close games today. This wasn't the only one.
Most games are typically decided by a small handful of plays to begin with, which is why overcoming Beckham's mind blowing TD catch is so important.

Absolutely we would have lost this game in years past. Probably the biggest difference between this and the last few. We are winning games that we used to lose.

And sweet blue eyed baby Jesus Harold Christ on a crutch in a manger I hope it continues.

Yep...could have been easy to tuck tails between legs and get stupid.

Would he be standing in the manger on the crutch, or just like beside the manger? It's important that I know this.

The last angle I saw Carr had a fistful of jersey, but he was clearly interfered with by Beckham at the same time, and at worst it should have been offsetting penalties.

Horrid officiating all around last night.

Hell that last spot was a joke that they needed replay to correct when everyone else watching knew when it was live he was a good yard short.

It feels so good, man. I woke up this morning feeling almost like we had lost because I think I am just so used to us losing this kind of game. It's a damn good feeling to have won in such a clutch situation.

Yeah, no doubt Carr has a hold of him, but it should have been offsetting and replayed. And yes, the officiating was terrible all night long.

I think the key is to hold down McCoy. If you make Sanchez one dimensional and make him pass a lot, he will get exposed.

Watching Carter play annoys me...get Watson ready or move Church up and play Spillman. Carter was horrid in zone on the first Beckham TD, did nothing to try to get off the block on the Williams TD, and bit hard on the play action that we ended up getting the int on. He sucks.
On one of the goal line runs he basically ran into the blocker and took himself out of the play.

R. McClain basically saved the game for us at the end there. What a helluva tackle he made.

Most teams have shut McCoy down and still lost. I honestly think he's a product of really bad OL blocking, not so much that teams are keying on him.

If we can just keep their special teams in check and not give them easy scores on defense, we'll be ok. A lot of there wins have been smoke and mirrors. Time to expose that.
