to get into the playoffs http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-randall-cunningham-jersey , and Chicago provided it.Look how the defending Super Bowl champions repaid the Bears. Nick Foles hit Golden Tate with a 2-yard touchdown pass on fourth down with 56 seconds remaining against the NFL's stingiest defense, lifting the Philadelphia Eagles past the Chicago Bears 16-15 on Sunday in the final wild-card game.Former Eagles kicker Cody Parkey hit the left upright and then the crossbar with a field-goal attempt from 43 yards with 10 seconds remaining, silencing the raucous crowd.The key, of course, was how the Eagles, even when they are messing up, never give up. On Parkey's kick, several Eagles said defensive tackle Treyvon Hester touched it."I think the big thing is, we saw some adversity tonight in the first half (and) I had a couple of turnovers," Foles said. "I think the big thing is that no one loses faith, no one stops believing, everyone just keeps talking, keeps believing in one another, and we just rallied. Our defense really kept us in this game."The defending league champion Eagles (10-7) squeezed into the playoffs by beating Washington and having the Bears (12-5) help them by knocking off Minnesota in the season finale. Philadelphia thanked its benefactor with a 12-play, 60-yard drive on which Foles, the Super Bowl MVP last February, hit six passes.Tate made a reaching grab in the right side of the end zone near the goal line."We found a way," Tate said. "That's playoff football right there for you. That's why we play this game for times like now once you get to January and February."Philly plays at New Orleans (13-3) next Sunday. Chicago's sensational turnaround season from last place to the NFC North title is over."We wanted to write our story and start it off," Bears second-year quarterback Mitchell Trubisky said. "But it does not always go the way you want it to Womens Harold Carmichael Jersey , and that's life, that's football."No team has repeated as Super Bowl champion since New England in 2004, and the Eagles are a sixth seed. The last sixth seed to win the NFL title was Green Bay in the 2010 season; the Packers won the NFC championship at Soldier Field that season.These Eagles, led by Foles once again replacing an injured Carson Wentz, and a defense down to backups at several positions, seem to have that magical touch like last season.It was a sizzling ending to a game marked by superior defense and several critical mistakes by the Eagles. They had to survive after Tarik Cohen, an All-Pro punt returner, took back the kickoff following Philly's go-ahead score 35 yards. Mitchell Trubisky completed two passes to get the Bears close enough for Parkey. But his kick took a double deflection and fell harmlessly into the end zone.He was 11 of 12 in the fourth-quarter on field goals before missing the biggest kick of his career."Obviously, we're just hoping for a miss," Foles said. "This was a hard-fought game. That's an amazing team we just played against and it came down to the wire."The Bears are 1-15 all-time in playoffs when trailing after three quarters. They fell behind when Foles connected with rookie Dallas Goedert for a 10-yard touchdown in the third period that was set up by a 33-yard pass interference call on cornerback Prince Amukamara.Although the Eagles outplayed the Bears in the first half, errors left them behind 6-3. A 15-yard personal penalty on Michael Bennett aided Chicago's drive to a 36-yard field goal by Parkey, and a dropped potential interception in the end zone by Tre Sullivan allowed Parkey to make a 29-yarder as the half concluded.Philadelphia also had an interception by Avonte Maddox deep in Chicago territory overturned by video replay.Philly did score on its opening series of the game, a 50-yard drive to Jake Elliott's 43-yard field goal. And again on its first possession in the third quarter as Goedert got wide open on a short post pattern behind Adrian Amos, who had an end-zone interception of Foles' ill-advised throw in the second quarter.Parkey also made 34-yarder early in the manic final quarter."We had a lot of fun and I love our guys to death," Bears coach Matt Nagy said.REID'S INFLUENCEBoth head coaches, Nagy in Chicago and Doug Pederson in Philadelphia, are Andy Reid proteges. That usually means lots of passing, and each team didn't do much on the ground, combining for 107 yards rushing.But Trubisky threw for 303 yards Wilbert Montgomery Jersey , going 26 of 43. Foles was 25 of 40 for 266 yards.TURNOVERSTeams rarely win when they are minus in turnover differential. The Eagles did, having two giveaways and no takeaways. Chicago led the NFL this season with 36 takeaways.MASCOT REACTION Chicago's bear mascot had the perfect reaction to Parkey's miss, falling flat on his back as he was kneeling behind the goalpost where Parkey's kick failed.UP NEXTEagles: Travel to New Orleans, where they lost 48-7 during the season."Yeah, it wasn't very good the first time," Pederson said. "I think we're a different football team now than we were then."

One of the few questions about this roster is whether there is enough defensive end depth after Chris Long and Michael Bennett departed this season. Will GM Howie Roseman just cross his fingers at one of the most critical positions in football, or make a move before the start of the season? Knowing his aggressive mentality, the latter seems more likely.Eagles 53-man roster prediction after one week of training camp - BGNJordan Howard gets a lot of work with the first team. He’s the favorite to be the 1A in the Eagles’ running back rotation early on in the season. The Eagles won’t be able to resist putting Miles Sanders on the field, though, if he proves himself reliable to the coaching staff. After watching him practice, it’s clear that Sanders is much more dynamic and explosive than any other Eagles running back. Sproles is going to be an offensive role player in addition to the team’s primary punt returner. The 36-year-old still looks spry and fast. Clement started participating in 7-on-7 this week and he said he hopes to be full go by the first preseason game. Some have questioned if Clement’s a roster lock and I tend to think he is given that the team was so high on him heading into 2018. Besides, I don’t see another running back that’s really threatening to take his job. One of Josh Adams or Boston Scott is worth keeping around on the practice squad.The Kist & Solak Show #`107: Eye On the Enemy - Rams Part II - BGN RadioMichael Kist and Benjamin Solak continue their Eye On the Enemy series & this time they go outside of the NFC East to focus on a major NFC contender, the Los Angeles Rams! Too much info to cover in one show so this one is all about the offense with a special focus on Sean McVay and Jared Goff! Powered by SB Nation and Bleeding Green Nation.Eagles stock up/stock down after the first full week of training camp practices - PhillyVoiceLB Zach Brown: His stats over the last three years say that Brown can play. However, he hasn’t stood out in a positive way at all so far throughout camp, and he looks completely disinterested at times during non-team drills. I’ve seen Eagles players go through cruise control during camp in the past, only to watch them turn it on when it matters, making any camp concerns look foolish. Fletcher Cox and DeSean Jackson come to mind there. However, Brown is joining a new team. He doesn’t have the luxury of not having to prove himself.Safety Shuffle - Iggles BlitzTre Sullivan has to be very nervous. The only advantage he’s got on Cyprien is age and cost. Blake Countess will make the team if he’s healthy. We’ll have to see what happens with that. Cyprien could win a roster spot http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-wes-hopkins-jersey , but he’s far from a lock. He’ll have to show that he’s back from his ACL. Cyprien will also have to embrace STs. Backup safeties must play well on STs. I’m interested to see just what he can do. It is a bit of an odd move in the sense that Schwartz likes interchangeable safeties. Cyprien is much better in the box than he is playing back in space. Still, he is a talented, experienced player and those guys can be worth taking a chance on.Eagles churning roster, bolstering depth at safety - PE.comA healthy Michael Lewis in today’s game would be a valuable piece as a hybrid safety/linebacker. In a way, that’s how the Eagles are using Jenkins, who can cover from the safety position in the base defense and also provide huge help as a linebacker when the Eagles take a linebacker (or two) off the field. From there, Jenkins can still cover, and he is also physical enough and a strong tackler to support the run defense. Defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz is as creative as they come, and he’s open to ideas on how to best employ his personnel. He wants versatility and flexibility in his players and with his scheme. So, we’ll see if Cyprien can add to that mix. He’s got a strong NFL pedigree, he knows his way around a defense, and he’s hungry after missing all of 2018. Maybe he lends something to the defense.Berman and Wulf: In need of depth, Eagles add safety Johnathan Cyprien in no-risk move - The AthleticWhat I like about him is that Cyprien could allow the Eagles to go thinner at linebacker because he could play in the box. It’s a no-risk move on Aug. 2 for a player who signed a four-year, $25 million contract with Tennessee in 2017. Just don’t view it with the expectations that they’re adding the player the Titans signed or in the starting role he’s held throughout his career.Roob’s random Eagles points: Dark-horse LB Alex Singleton, surprising WR Carlton Agudosi and more - NBCSPThe most surprising wide receiver in camp has been Carlton Agudosi, an unheralded 6-foot-6 25-year-old who caught 35 passes his entire college career at Rutgers. Agudosi wasn’t even on the radar when camp began, but he’s got real good hands and a good feel for getting open, and he seems to understand how to use his big frame to get open. Agudosi had a terrific week and has definitely caught the coaches’ eyes. He’s not going to make the roster, but if he can continue showing this sort of consistency and he can do it in the games Womens Mike Quick Jersey , I could see the Central Jersey native finding his way onto the practice squad.USA soccer star Julie Ertz opens up on Women’s World Cup run, Zach Ertz, the Eagles and ‘the power of sports’ - CBS SportsIn “Chase Your Dreams,” Julie’s book, she shares exactly that. She highlights humility over stardom and faith over fame, echoing sentiments often touted by Zach and some of his high-profile Eagles teammates in recent years. ”I think time has really allowed us to reflect,” she said. “We’ve both been in our careers for seven, eight years now, and obviously when you’re young, sometimes that fades your vision of the bigger picture. It really helps now, with Zach being my support, asking us to reflect. When you’re in it, you’re going, going, going and forget to see where you’re at.” Now, Julie sees where she’s at, and remembers to ask herself: “Where do you put your identity?” She hopes the next generation does the same. And she’s got a husband who’s right there with her.The worst player likenesses in ‘Madden NFL 20’ (and the real problem behind them) - SB NationA massive lack of customization options means “Madden’s“ likenesses still have a very long way to go.2019 UCLA Football Fall Camp: Closed to the Public Again - Bruins Nation[BLG Note: Chip Kelly isn’t allowing Bruins fans to watch practice.]...Social Media Information:BGN Facebook Page: Click here to like our pageBGN Twitter: Follow @BleedingGreenBGN Manager: Brandon Lee Gowton: Follow @BrandonGowtonBGN Radio Twitter: Follow @BGN_Radio
