The ball was in slow motion coming down.

Of course, after today’s performance by Sanchez, Eagles fans might be reconsidering.
I have no problem with the play call and hindsight is 20-20.
C Jason Kelce played one of the worst games of his career against the Dolphins.
-COACHING: A. Interim coach Dan Campbell (3-2) kept his team pointed in the right direction despite back-to-back road losses at New England and Buffalo. “He did so much for us”.
And they knocked Eagles quarterback Sam Bradford (shoulder, concussion) out of the game. On top of that, his replacement, Mark Sanchez, threw a red zone interception that ultimately cost the Eagles the game 20-19. “Whether it’s there or here or in the parking lot, we’ve got to go win”. He then tossed a TD pass to Landry on a ball that was deflected and sailed high in the air.
“It seemed like it was up there for about 10 seconds”, Tannehill said.
The diagnosis isn’t as serious as initially thought, but regardless, it means that Bradford will miss time and the Eagles have to rely on Mark Sanchez to lead them in the second half of the season. Good teams beat bad teams. Tannehill dropped to pass in the end zone and was blindsided by blitzing safety Walter Thurmond and fumbled out of the end zone for a safety, giving the Eagles a 9-6 lead with 8:38 left in the opening period.
On Tuesday, Kelce explained his frustrations and broke down a few of the mental errors that have plagued him in 2015 (see story). “I’m proud of the way the guy played”.
The Dolphins became the first team since the 1980 Seattle Seahawks to take three safeties in one game. Miami’s defense held again in the final minute.
Ndamukong Suh is finally looking like the player the Dolphins envisioned when they signed him this offseason mega deal.
“Yeah, I think that’s what everybody’s point is”, Kelly said.
He had a sack and three tackles for a loss against the Eagles. Dolphins CB Brent Grimes was a surprise inactive, ending his streak of 40 straight starts. Miami then lost starting CB Brice McCain to a knee injury.
“When we arrived last night, he was not feeling well”. Kelly would not give a day on which Bradford must be cleared to play in order for him to suit up on Sunday.
“I wouldn’t have been any help to the team”.
“I blocked one my sophomore year against Utah and we ended up winning that game, too”, Vigil said. “I had food poisoning and that was causing me to throw up”, he said.
Receiver Jarvis Landry said he can’t even remember how to get to the stadium, which happens to be undergoing a renovation costing more than $425 million. Bradford also suffered a concussion on the play. He’s not fleet of foot, but in an offense that struggles to catch the ball with regularity, Celek can be a trusty target. He was also intercepted at the end zone, which could have been a scoring drive for the Philadelphia Eagles.

“Mark’s probably a little bit more conscious of the tempo”, offensive tackle Lane Johnson said.
