In a game that might prove to save the Philadelphia Eagles season, Donovan McNabb had by far his best game of the season, finishing 18 for 29 passing for 172 yards in the air with another 47 yards on the ground. He also seemed to be more confident in his decisions, threading needles and running all over Ralph Wilson Stadium.

In yet another coaching blunder, Gregg Wilson decided not to stack most of his players in the box when he knew that the Eagles were going to be running out the clock with just 2:49 remaining and the Eagles holding on to a slim 16-13 lead. This led to Brian Westbrook’s 62 yard touchdown run and basically sealed the victory for the 1-3 Eagles.
