Curious but did anyone think it was bush that the Eagles tried to score at the end of the game last week?? Granted you try the first play maybe, then with a running clock (assuming Dallas does not use time outs) take a knee and win... But Dallas called time outs and the Eagles ran 2 more plays to score...Not sure what was going on??? Saw a tweet that Garrett was pissed that why he was calling time outs or did the calling of the time outs prompt Pederson to run the score up?? Not that it matters, but I was curious what that was all about??

Garrett should have played to win instead of getting pissed. Eagles don't owe Cowboys any quarter and Cowboys should not expect such. Linehan's play calling and Sanchez's ineptitude should have drawn Garrett's ire more than anything Philly did.

Even the Giants took a knee against the Commanders when they were forced to go out there for the PAT at 0:00.

Eagles should have kneeled down.

We were dumb for calling any time outs.

They wanted to get out without injury but let opponents have more live plays.

I was hoping someone may have read or heard something reported about Garretts take.... why call timeout even if they were trying to score...get out of town without an injury!!

Do mean the fans who celebrated by chanting "Dallas sucks"!!! and then posting tweets that winning was like winning their SB???

1. No injuries.

2. Romo looked great.

3. Eagles hurt their draft position.

4. Rested Lee, Byron, Zeke, Leary, and much of the defensive line.

Don't give a rip about the loss. It was a perfect outcome.

The Eagles were trying to get some undrafted rookie his first NFL TD. I can't fault them for that.

Garrett was being stupid calling timeouts there IMO.
