Superman and the Eagles win

The Philadelphia Eagles finished off their season with a three game winning streak after beating the Buffalo Bills 17-9.

In the game, running back Brian Westbrook set two individual team records. First, he broke Wilbert Montgomery's record of 2006 yards from scrimmage with a total of 2104 yards [1st in the league]. Secondly, Westbrook broke the Eagles single-season reception record with 90; the previous record was held by Irving Fryar with 88.

Back to the game and the defense played great in the red zone again. They also delivered some big hits courtesy of J.R. Reed, Sheldon Brown, Chris Gocong, and the Sav Rocca.

Also, for the second straight week, Kevin Curtis recovered a teammate's [Reggie Brown] fumble in the end zone for an Eagles touchdown.



I will provide an off-season outlook next weekend.
