PATRIOTS-EAGLES SCORE VIEWERS

November 27, 2007 -- SUNDAY'S Patriots- Eagles game drew the biggest overnight audience in over two years for either a Sunday- or Monday-night game.

The undefeated Pats, highly favored to beat Philadelphia, had to storm back from a 28-24 deficit with eight minutes left to forge a 31-28 victory.

The game averaged around 18.4 million viewers and a 15.6 rating - the best numbers since the Colts beat the Steelers, 26-7, in November 2005, according to Nielsen

Yep... it wasn't Pats stealing it... it was Philly and everyone who wanted to see them beat the Patriots.

Yes, even me. :)

Never thought I'd want to see an NFC East team win against an AFC opponent in the middle of the season. But I sure did this past Sunday. Felt strange pulling for Philly.

How do you "storm" back from a 4 point deficit with 8 minutes left?
