David Akers, last second making the kick and falling over in agony is about as epic as it gets.

My favorite part was the long snapper kicking off though. The punter can't kick?

Let's hope he didn't just gut-check his entire season away with one kick...

It was a great ending. Unfortunately for the Eagles, as well as the rest of the NFL, the New England Football Patriots will sweep it all away again this year. Even with all their injuries, there has never been a team that has played under the "team first" concept better than the Pats. No T.O., Randy Moss, Ricky Williams, blah, blah, blah theatrics here, just selfless play.

Thanks Coco. It was a sloppy game, but Akers and McNabb were heroic. Not Andy Reid's finest hour, by any stretch of the imagination. McNabb may have an injury called a sports hernia that will require surgery to repair at some point. All in all, not Andy Reid's finest hour, by any stretch of the imagination. But the Panthers slipped further behind ...[text shortened]... ne is that the Eagles have enough dings in them to wonder how many games they'll win this year.
NFC East is strong so far. All winning records. Anyway, Toby Gowin was a kick-off guy and a punter. I think he also attempted a few desperation place-kicks because of leg strength. I think I've seen teams bring in their punter for a long FG because his leg is stronger. I'd think a punter could at least kick-off and help them in their field position struggles. Guess not in this case.

So was Craig Heinrich (briefly).

Speaking of NFC - I'm officially starting to shovel dirt onto Brett Favre , the Packer organization , and the entired NFC North Division . Figgin' Ball State could stand a 50/50 shot at beating any one of the 4 of these bum teams .

The Black and Blue Division is so weak this year but I wouldn't cast aside the Packers yet. They still have a reasonable shot at making the playoffs. Any team would with Favre at the helm.

is 4% a reasonable chance? Because that's how many 0-3 starting teams have made the playoffs since it was changed to a 12 team format in 1990.

EDIT: 3 out of 75
