subject: Cowboys Vs Eagles Live(week 17 Football)final Online Internet Channels [print this page] McGees 37-yard scoring pass to wide receiver Miles Austin with 1:41 left in the game should have given the Cowboys a 27-24 lead, but kicker David Buehler missed the extra point which enabled Arizona to kick the game-winning field goal with five seconds remaining. Buehler has struggled throughout the season, and Dallas finally brought in some competition in Kris Brown, who could handle field goals and extra points and leave Buehler as a kickoff specialist.
I wouldnt say mastered, I would say Im a lot more comfortable with the plays, the reads and all that good stuff, Greisen said. Stephen came in and played great last week and now hes poised to start, and I think hes going to do a great job, and he understands this offense and hes a good player. Kitna said he wasnt sure if he would be active for the game, but at this stage he would be the third quarterback. As the third quarterback he can come into the game in the fourth quarter. However, if he enters the game sooner, the first two quarterbacks would not be eligible to play the rest of the game.
Well see what they decide, but I would think so, Kitna said. In an emergency role, right now, 48 hours, who knows. I may feel good enough to play.
Last Time They Met
December 12, 2010 Cowboys Stadium
Eagles 30, Cowboys 27
The House that Jerry Built was no kind place to the Philadelphia Eagles. In two trips to Arlington last season, the Eagles were soundly beaten in both of them abruptly ending their season and prompting significant change up and down the roster. Upon their return to the scene of the crime, the Eagles were in need of a win on Sunday Night Football to keep their edge in a close NFC East race.
Vick is unlikely to play in this game, however, and Kevin Kolb is nowhere near as nimble as Vick. He can beat you with his legs, but not to such a degree that it makes man coverage impossible.
As always, blitzing the defensive backs could create problems for Philly. Last night, it had tons of problems blocking the Vikings nickel back. Orlando Scandrick has found a lot of success on blitzes this season, so Paul Pasqualoni should dial up those exotic blitzes even more often than usual (which wasnt near enough in the first place).
A bye week followed and theyve responded with two impressive wins, defeating Atlanta 37-21 before last Sundays 38-17 rout of Seattle.
Ever since their bye week, theyve been playing well, too, so its going to be a challenge for us no matter what, Donovan McNabb said.
The Eagles put up a strong offensive performances led the quarterback Michael Vick who completed 16 of 26 passes for 270 yards with two touchdowns and two picks. He had 8 runs for 16 yards and a score.
Philadelphia torched the Cowboys on the ground and were led by running back LeSean McCoy who ran 16 times for 149 yards.
For Philadelphia, the biggest news is the likely return of Asante Samuel (knee), who has missed the last two games. He is listed as probable for Week 14, but be sure to check out SBRs injury report for further updates leading up to gametime. In addition, right tackle Winston Justice (knee) is questionable to play and his absence would be bad news for an Eagles squad that needs all the help it can get to protect Vick in the pocket.
