I agree with the part of the article that stated (paraphrasing) " if anything, it felt lucky that the Eagles were able to take the lead late."
It's like the Eagles and their fans didn't realize they were completely losing the yardage battle and were down 13 late in the 3rd...
... At home
... Against a bad road team
... Against a team that really doesn't play well in the cold
... All while being close to 100% healthy.
They were going nowhere until the Saints best corner went out of the game, leaving the saints even more depleted in the secondary.
But in the end the saints just pushed them around to chew up 4.5 minutes and end the game.
Yeah, the Saints got real lucky alright...
