>>>>>> With a big nfc East showdown against Dallas looming on Thanksgiving Day, the Eagles looked to tune up for the main course...with an appetizer this afternoon against the 2-8 Titans... Philadelphia, back at the linc following a rough trip to Green Bay...but this is how you respond at home...- How about the opening kickoff...Josh Huff from 7 yards deep in the endzone...finds a seam...comes near sideline...sheds a tackler...then throws a filthy stiff-arm to break free...107 yards to the house...the longest kickoff return in franchise history...the 10th non-offensive touchdown for the Birds this year...7-0 Philadelphia...- End of the 1st quarter, it's 17-0 Eagles...Mark Sanchez threw for over 300 yards...but he also had 2 interceptions...Bran don Ghee with one there...that set-up the Titans first touchdown, it's 17-7...- Less than 5 minutes to play in the 1st half, its only a 6-point game...but LeSean McCoy scores from the doorstep...130 yards and that td for Shady on the day...his 3rd 100-yard game in the last 6 contests...- Then in the 3rd quarter, Sanchez buying some time to his right...fires to James Casey and connects on the 14-yard touchdown...Cody Parkey added 3 4th quarter field goals as the Eagles roll 43-24. With more on the game, here's WFMZ's Dave Lesko.>>>After a lackluster performance against Green Bay and a short week ahead of them, the Eagles needed a good showing against the Titans on Sunday.And they set the tone early with an opening kickoff return for touchdown by Josh Huff.Cody Parkey hit on five field goals and Mark Sanchez threw for over 300 yards and a score. While Sanchez is happy with the 43-24 win, he cant shake the disappointment of throwing two more interceptions. mark sanchez "For anybody to be successful, we have to take care of the football no matter what.We cant be on the wrong page, and i cant miss the ball down the field to Ertz down the field.Well take the win and be happy with it, but we have to move on and get better." dave lesko Meanwhile LeSean McCoy found zone once and rushed for 130 yards on 21 carries, his 22nd career 100 yard rushing game. That's second place all time in franchise history. lesean mccoy "The guys up front really, really blocked well. Even the guys outside, the wide receivers, they blocked well too so it was just all together.I think Mark played good and made the right calls and the different reads, got points when we needed points and drove the ball well." Defensively, the Birds gave up three touchdowns, but they continuously pressured Zach Mettenberger, sacking him five times. trent cole "You know you got to give it to the secondary on down to the linebacking corps to the D-Line.Everybody was giving, it's a team effort. a lot of pressure from different angles, up the middle, and everybody did what they were supposed to do." Now it'll be a quick turnaround, as the Eagles spend their Thanksgiving Day in Dallas taking on the Cowboys for the nfc East division lead.At the Linc in South Philadelphia, Dave Lesko 69
