You can’t try to do too much. Repeat the trick Saturday in Philadelphia and Washington wins the NFC East. Talib Babb on we got here.

Neither team is where they thought they would be at the beginning of the season, as both have suffered unforeseen setbacks. But the Huskers responded, scoring a pair of touchdowns in the final six and a half minutes of the second quarter.
“That’s why you play the game”, Bradford said.
Tornadoes sweep through Dallas area; significant damage
One tornado was reported in Ovilla and Desoto, and also reportedly struck portions of Midlothian, Waxahachie, Glenn Heights. The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency said Saturday that authorities were monitoring areas for possible flooding.
A win here would clinch the NFC East and the 4th seed in the NFC playoffs for the Redskins. In an ideal world, the Eagles should give Bradford a short-term deal so they can see how he performs in his second year in the system.
Coach Bill Belichick considers resting starters in remaining regular season games
The wisdom of head coach Todd Bowles’ postseason approach is no clearer than it is heading into Jets-Patriots at MetLife Stadium. Whether it’s Jackson, James White or LeGarrette Blount, the Jets need to do what they do best: make teams one dimensional.
The only prediction I can make about the Eagles is that they will be playing this game at home in Lincoln Financial Field, at least that’s what I was told. “We’re building on something special”.
Gruden, who mentioned last year that he would talk to Jackson about controlling emotions, did not feel the need to do it this year.
ROAD WOES: The Redskins are 1-5 on the road and went more than a year without a road victory before a 24-21 win in Week 14 at Chicago. Last time the teams matched up, the Redskins topped the Eagles, 23-20. Cody Parkey missed a 34-yard field goal and a 46-yard field goal in Week 16 last season.
“They’re a little bit different”, said Kelly.
“They have three formidable guys there”. “The first few weeks you had to get used to that, but now…”
For one, he’s no longer glued to the spreadsheet he created before the season to map out his life in 15-minute, color-coded chunks. LINE: Eagles -3. O/U: 47.5ABOUT THE REDSKINS (7-7): Kirk Cousins is in the midst of his the best stretch of his career with a passer rating above 100 in four straight games, capped by a 153.7 mark in last week’s 35-25 win over Buffalo in which he threw for 319 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions.
I think Chip Kelly wants to keep Sam Bradford. We are in a position to be first in our division.
The Redskins couldn’t win on the road nor win consecutive games. He took several good shots on his injured left shoulder in Sunday’s loss to Arizona and had to leave the game for a play at one point. “And we have to focus on what we have to focus on”.
Cousins has become the first quarterback in franchise history to throw for 300 or more yards six times in a season, with five of those coming over his past eight games.
“We’re building on something”, Redskins defensive end Ricky Jean Francois said. Last week, he had no catches in the first half, then had a 45-yard pass-interference play that was big for us. The Panthers have beaten five of their last seven opponents by eight points or more, and Cam Newton’s recent play has made him the surefire 2015 MVP.
The Eagles would be thrilled to strike up the running game. It helps to open other things up.
He also believes that DeMarco Murray is suddenly going to re-emerge as a part of Chip Kelly’s offense.
To make it even worse, the Eagles needed a punt return against the Jets and three non-offensive TDs against the Patriots to get those wins. “I think we’re heading in the right direction and that’s encouraging”. He knows the magnitude of this game. For all the times where DeSean took games (or the entire 2011 season) off, or annoyed me with his Instagram posts, I had a soft spot for him. I’m not anxious about how many plays I am getting.
Starting cornerbacks Byron Maxwell and Eric Rowe were sidelined with injuries.

“One thing I know going into the playoffs in December is it’s the guy who has the hot hand”, Jean Francois said. They were 4-12 in 2014, Kirk Cousins wasn’t supposed to be good, and they were stuck in what originally looked to be a pretty solid division.
