Denny Basens pisses all over yesterday's win. I say a victory is a
victory. Nothing wrong with winning on big defensive and special
teams plays. Relegating Murray to third string and deactivating
Austin were big steps in the right direction. We'll see in a couple
weeks if there really has been a turnaround.

The Eagles won this game on flukey plays from the defense and special teams. They managed to block a punt and run it back for a score in the second quarter. Malcolm Jenkins finally hung onto an interception, and returned it 99 yards for a touchdown. Then Darren Sproles capped it all off with a punt return for a touchdown to give the Eagles a two-score lead in the second half.
Mix in some horrendous coaching decisions from Bill Belichick and some uncharacteristic mistakes from Tom Brady, and you have the perfect formula for a fraudulent upset, which is exactly what this game was.
