Eagles stand alone in first, beat Giants 45-38
Posted on 14. Dec, 2009 by Mike Burke in Eagles Related
From the start of this game, you could see some points were going to be scored. Little did we know that this would be the largest amount of points scored in a match up between the two teams.
The offense came out hot and scored on their first possession and the defense came out and scored on a Brandon Jacobs fumble which was returned by Sheldon Brown. From here things got a lot more interesting and the game stayed close all the way to the end.
After seeing how Brian Westbrook returned from his concussion, there was some question as to how DeSean Jackson would make his return. All questions were silenced as Jackson returned a punt for a touchdown and also had a reception for a touchdown while accumulating 178 yards through the air.
It wasn’t the best looking game but the Eagles prevailed and now stand on top of the NFC East with a 9-4 record.
Fine more analysis: here.

It was a hard fought win, so they deserved it. I love high scoring games and the defense did play a key role (as I predicted on your last post) hehe.
Looking forward to the full analysis.

The “stand alone” status made the victory even sweeter!
