It is not the result that we wanted. The Eagles will have to wait at least one more week

to lock away the one seed. They fall to the Cowboys. 34 to 40. On Christmas Eve, Mary

Christmas Eagles fans, I'm joined today for the post-game reaction show by Johnny Page.

It is actually Christmas, Johnny, where you're at. So, Mary Christmas to you, I wish the Eagles

had gotten you a better gift. Yeah, so those of you watching is currently a Gone Midnight,

so he's officially Christmas. I don't even know where we're going to talk about that game.

I think we were just chatting off there, but that was mentally draining. That was,

yeah, thank goodness that wasn't a playoff game, because this podcast would go off the rail,

so that was the case, because yeah. It was just a roller coaster. From the first possession,

Josh Sweat gets the pick six, and I was ready to, I was ready to just have a party,

even though there were 55 minutes left in the game, and then I immediately thought this is

kind of like the Saints playoff game several years ago, where they got the 14-point lead.

Let's rain it in a little bit. It went back and forth, and even to the very end,

the Eagles get the ball back down three, and I said, I'm fully confident. If they don't throw

the ball to Quiz Watkins, I'm fully confident that they can go win this game, and then Miles

Sanders fumbles. Mike McCarthy makes the ludicrous decision to kick the field goal, and I'm like,

I still think they're going to win this game all the way to the end of the last play. I never

really stopped believing, but it was a mess of a game. I guess we can get into the offense

or the defense first. It doesn't really matter to me. Let's just stick with the offense.

Gardener Menshu comes in, and you don't expect a guy to come in off the bench having not played,

and carry your team. I thought Menshu was fine. He was a little shell-shocked, I thought,

in the first half, I thought he really settled in and made some nice throws in the second half.
