Even if 5-4 is only good enough for the NFC East cellar. He said both could be ready to go by the team’s next game, at home against Arizona on November 27. “They ran the same thing back-to-back, and I made a play”. Two plays into their initial fourth-quarter drive, Ryan found Taylor Gabriel alone for a 76-yard touchdown.

One of Agholor’s worst performances this season (and there’s a lot of them!) came against the Atlanta Falcons Sunday.
Thomas posted his fifth-consecutive doubt-digit target game, but managed to find the end zone against a poor Saints secondary.
“We are disappointed”, Ryan said. “We got it rolling early and that really set the tone of the game”. The veteran corner jumped Matt Ryan’s pass to Julio Jones and sealed the Eagles’ victory. It’s no great surprise that the Falcons wound up losing this game, when you take all those pieces together, and they’re going to have some soul-searching to do during what promises to be a long bye week.
“Throughout the week, either one of us got the ball we try to give 110% every time and make it all count”, Mathews said in the Eagles locker room. In his last four, however, Coates has managed just one catch for 4 yards.
“Just some design things we had during the game plan that were not necessarily a reflection on Nelson or any other guys, it was just a matter of the design and the contour of the play, and who was the primary on that play”.
“I had confidence in Ryan to get the job done”, Pederson said. So, when the Philadelphia Eagles finally gave him the ball on a consistent basis, he was ready.
Up: Run game – The ground attack had its best game of the season, totaling 207 yards.
“Ryan had a great day”, Eagles center Jason Kelce said. We do have plays intended for those guys. He finished with a season-high 109 yards on 19 carries – his most since he had 22 carries in the season opener versus Cleveland – and two touchdowns.
The Philadelphia Eagles had lost four games going into Sunday’s match-up against the Atlanta Falcons and they had a chance to win all four in the fourth quarter.
“I thought our front five played extremely well today”. You’re going to give something to take something. “They ended up coming in here being the No. 1-ranked offense in the National Football League, and we’re one of the top defenses in the National Football League, so, defense wins”.
“They outdid us in all phases”, Falcons coach Dan Quinn said.
“We were just off today, ” Jones said.
The Falcons have a bye next week, and they said it’s coming at the flawless time for them.

Eagles starting cornerback Nolan Carroll left in the first half after sustaining a concussion. We had practiced against all of their scheme and all of their plays this week. He will need to perform at a high level moving forward if the Eagles want any shot of catching the division leading Dallas Cowboys. And that’s just something that can bother somebody, because everybody sees that we messed up on this, go ahead and get the right call out there. A fantasy team fighting for a playoff spot will have to go into the final week of the regular season without Marcus Mariota, DeMarco Murray, Delanie Walker, Terrelle Pryor, Gary Barnidge, Isaiah Crowell, and Duke Johnson.
