2010 Philadelphia Eagles season

The 2010 Philadelphia Eagles season was the franchise's 78th season in the National Football League (NFL), and the twelfth under head coach Andy Reid. The Eagles failed to improve on their 11–5 record from 2009, finishing with a 10–6 record. However, they were able to win their division due to a tiebreaker over the New York Giants, who also finished 10-6. In the wild-card round of the playoffs, the Eagles lost to the eventual Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers. The Eagles played all of their home games at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. The off-season saw a significant roster overhaul as Donovan McNabb and Brian Westbrook, two of the franchise's key players over the last decade, departed. McNabb was traded to Philadelphia's NFC East rival, the Washington Redskins, while Westbrook was cut from the roster and later signed with the San Francisco 49ers. Kevin Kolb was intended to be the Eagles' new franchise quarterback, however he was injured during the Week 1 game and replaced by Michael Vick, who started in 11 of 16 games (Kolb started in Weeks 4–6 when he was injured, as well as Week 17 with Vick and the starters resting for the playoffs.) With Vick at quarterback, they set franchise records, including a memorable comeback win against the New York Giants and a season-high 59 points in Washington.

Game information

The Eagles donned their throwback uniforms (in celebration of the franchise's 50th Anniversary of their 1960 championship team) and began their season at home for an NFC duel with the Green Bay Packers. In the first quarter, Philadelphia had the early lead with kicker David Akers making a 45-yard field goal, but failed to maintain it in the second quarter with Packers kicker Mason Crosby nailing a 49-yard field goal, followed by quarterback Aaron Rodgers throwing a 6-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Donald Driver, followed by Crosby hitting a 56-yard field goal.

In the third quarter, the Green Bay fullback John Kuhn pushed up the middle for a 3-yard touchdown run, but replied with running back LeSean McCoy running in a 12-yard TD run. However, the Packers extended their lead with Rodgers bombing a 32-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Greg Jennings. The Eagles cut the lead in the 4th quarter with quarterback Michael Vick tossing a 17-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Jeremy Maclin, and with Akers nailing a 24-yard field goal, but couldn't do enough, giving the Eagles a loss.

With the loss, the Eagles began the season at 0–1. They also lost Leonard Weaver, who was considered to be the best fullback in the NFL in 2009 and had just been signed to a record-breaking fullback, to a career ending injury.

The Lions looked good early in the first quarter, but with 11:15 remaining, Shaun Hill was intercepted by Nate Allen. Just four plays into the following drive, the Eagles took the early lead when QB Michael Vick bombed a 45-yard TD pass to deep threat WR DeSean Jackson. Detroit replied, driving 76 yards in 6 plays with RB Jahvid Best hauling a 14-yard touchdown run, taking 3:00 minutes off the clock. After three combined punts, the Eagles then fell behind in the 2nd quarter when kicker Jason Hanson nailed a 49-yard field goal. This was followed by QB Shaun Hill slinging a screen pass to RB Jahvid Best, who took it 75 yards for a touchdown, widening the lead to 17–7. The possession took only three plays and barely a minute off the clock. Then the Eagles replied with an 11-play, 75-yard drive that ended with RB LeSean McCoy taking in a 14-yard TD run. After a Lions punt, the Eagles marched 89 yards in less than a minute with QB Michael Vick throwing a 9-yard TD pass to WR Jeremy Maclin. The Eagles led 21–17 at halftime. On their second possession of the third quarter, the Eagles scored again, with RB LeSean McCoy hammering home a 4-yard TD run. Things got worse for the Lions, as Shaun Hill was intercepted on their next possession by Ellis Hobbs. They managed to force a punt, but wasted a 12-play, 48-yard drive that took 5:49 off the clock. On 4th-and-1 at the Eagles 29, Jahvid Best was stuffed for no gain and the Lions turned it over on downs. Worse yet, the drive took into the fourth quarter. The Eagles seemingly put the game away on their next drive when LeSean McCoy scampered off to the races on a 46-yard TD run on 3rd-and-16 with just 6:27 left, and the Eagles lead 35–17. However, the Lions roared back with RB Jahvid Best finishing off an 85-yard drive with a 2-yard TD run, making the score 35–24 with 4:15 remaining. After forcing a three-and-out, the Lions stormed 56 yards in just 6 plays, culminating with Hill completing a 19-yard TD pass to WR Calvin Johnson (With a successful 2-point conversion). The Lions recovered the onside kick with 1:50 left, but four straight incompletions ended any chance of a miracle comeback.

After the game was tied the Eagles scored to take the lead with DeSean Jackson returning a punt 65 yards for a touchdown as time expired, becoming the first player in NFL history to do so.[86][87][88] Fox commentator Joe Buck called the final play with:

And DeSean Jackson, who has averaged, 14th-best in the NFL, 8.7 yards per return, has not returned one for a touchdown this year, waits. And it's a line drive kick. Jackson bobbles, it, and now he has to try and recover. DeSean Jackson GETS A BLOCK! ARE YOU KIDDING?! DeSean Jackson... still not in and now in for the touchdown, no flags! UNBELIEVABLE! NO TIME LEFT! EAGLES WIN![89]

Eagles broadcasters Merrill Reese and Mike Quick called the play on WYSP-FM in Philadelphia this way:[90][91]

Fourteen seconds to go. 31–31. Matt Dodge to punt, gets a high snap, gets it away, it's a knuckler. Jackson takes it at the 35, fumbles it, picks it up, looks for running room. He's at the 40, he's at the 45, midfield (Mike Quick: OH!), he's at the 40 (OH!). He's going to go! DeSean Jackson (OH!)! I don't care if he jumps, dives, he's running around and he's in the end zone, and there's no time, and the Eagles win! The Eagles win! (Quick:) This is Miracle at the Meadowlands Number 2!

With the win, the Eagles improved to 10–4.

Game information

Coming off their miracle win over the Giants, the Eagles went home for a Week 16 intraconference duel with the Minnesota Vikings. The game was originally scheduled for 1 pm on Sunday, but was bumped to a Sunday Night Football telecast due to the NFL's Flex Scheduling policy. The NFL wants to ensure that every Sunday night game after Week 11 has playoff implications. In this case, the Eagles had a chance to clinch their first NFC East title since 2006, and the sixth in Reid's 12 years as coach, with a win. However, the game was pushed back to Tuesday due to heavy snow in Philadelphia (see below).

Philadelphia delivered the game's opening punch in the first quarter as quarterback Michael Vick found rookie tight end Clay Harbor on a 3-yard touchdown pass. The Vikings responded in the second quarter with cornerback Antoine Winfield returning a fumble 45 yards for a touchdown.

Minnesota took the lead in the third quarter with kicker Ryan Longwell getting a 30-yard field goal, followed by quarterback Joe Webb getting a 9-yard touchdown run. The Eagles answered in the fourth quarter with Vick's 10-yard touchdown run, but the Vikings pulled away after the Vikings scored a touchdown on a 1-yard run by running back Adrian Peterson.

With the loss, Philadelphia fell to 10–5, and is locked into the #3 playoff seed in the NFC.

Postponement Edit

The December 2010 North American blizzard postponed the game until Tuesday, December 28, 2010, at 8:00 p.m. out of concern for public safety. The game aired on NBC[93][94] The NFL postponed the game shortly after noon, even before there was any snow accumulation in Philadelphia,[93] after Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter declared a snow emergency for the city.[93]

Eagles and NFL officials said that the postponement decision was made mainly out of concern for the safety of fans, vendors, suppliers and stadium workers. The game was scheduled to end just before midnight Philadelphia time, during the worst of the storm. Eagles COO Don Smolenski said the possibility of having over 72,000 people (over 69,000 fans plus 3,000 workers) stranded in the brunt of the storm made league and team officials conclude "it just wasn't safe" to play the game on Sunday night.[95] League and team officials were also concerned that emergency vehicles wouldn't be able to make it through safely.[96] Indeed, SEPTA and New Jersey Transit, which are utilized by many Eagles fans coming to and leaving games, were forced to alter or cancel routes due to the storm.[93]

The postponement decision was very unpopular in Philadelphia. Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell, the former mayor of Philadelphia and an avid Eagles fan, said that football was a game that was meant to be played in bad weather. DeSean Jackson tweeted, "It's only snow!!!! Let us play... It must be a lot of fun... I'm ready let's get it on!!"[93] The next day, Rendell told WPEN-FM that the postponement was proof that the United States had become "a nation of wusses." The front page of the Philadelphia Daily News had pictures of Nutter, Eagles owner Jeff Lurie, Eagles president Joe Banner and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell in beanie caps, suggesting they were "wimps" for postponing the game. However, Nutter maintained that the city could have had Lincoln Financial Field ready in time for kickoff, and the postponement decision was made by the league and the Eagles.[97]

This was the 20th NFL game to be played on a Tuesday, but the first since 1946.[93][94] The last Eagles game on a Tuesday was September 26, 1944, when they defeated the Boston Yanks in the season opener. It was also the Yanks first regular season franchise game.

The Giants' loss to the Packers earlier on Sunday gave the Eagles the NFC East title.[98] The Eagles' chances of contending for a first-round bye were ended with the loss to the Vikings coupled with the Bears' win over the Jets.

With their playoff position locked and basically all starters resting, the Eagles' sixteenth game was an NFC East rivalry rematch against the Cowboys. In the 2nd quarter the Eagles took the lead as QB Kevin Kolb threw a 4-yard TD pass to WR Chad Hall, but after that the offense had problems after Kolb dropped the ball which was recovered 17 yards for a touchdown by OLB DeMarcus Ware. They took a slight lead with kicker David Akers hitting a 43 and a 22-yard field goal, but failed to maintain this lead when QB Stephen McGee threw a 4-yard TD pass to TE Jason Witten.[99]

With the loss, the Eagles finish on a 10–6 record.

Game information

Entering the postseason as the NFC's #3 seed, the Eagles began their playoff run at home in the NFC Wild Card Round against the #6 Green Bay Packers, hoping to avenge their Week 1 loss. The Eagles had a terrific early scoring attempt. After a three-and-out, the Eagles drove into field goal range, but All-Pro kicker David Akers missed wide-right on a 41-yard field goal attempt. The Packers instead snatched the early first quarter lead as Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed a 4-yard touchdown pass to tight end Tom Crabtree for the early lead.[100] Green Bay added onto their lead in the second quarter as Rodgers completed a 9-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver James Jones.[100] All the Eagles could muster in the first half was a 29-yard field goal from kicker David Akers.[100]

In the third quarter, after an Aaron Rodgers fumble, quarterback Michael Vick found wide receiver Jason Avant on a 24-yard touchdown pass. The Packers countered right back with an 11-play, 80-yard drive which ended Rodgers chunking a 16-yard touchdown pass to running back Brandon Jackson, taking 6:17 of the clock. At 21–10, the defenses took over for much of the remainder of the game. The Eagles drove into scoring range early in the 4th quarter, but Akers missed another field goal, this time a chip shot from 34 yards, keeping it at 21–10. With 8:56 remaining, the Eagles took over at their own 25. 12 plays and 74 yards later, they faced a fourth-and-goal at the 1. Vick took the snap and rushed forward, barely breaking the plain for a 1-yard touchdown run (with a failed two-point conversion) in the fourth quarter. On the two-point conversion, Vick completed the pass to Celek for the score, but his back heel went out of bounds and back in before he caught the pass, making him an ineligible receiver. The five-yard penalty moved them back to the 7-yard line. Vick's next attempt was incomplete, keeping the score 21–16. The Eagles forced a punt and got the ball back at their own 34 with 1:45 remaining. Vick hit DeSean Jackson for 28 yards to the Packers 38. After back-to-back incompletions, Vick hit Riley Cooper for 11 yards on 3rd and 10, moving the ball to the Packers 27 with less than a minute remaining. However, Green Bay's defense stopped the Eagles' final drive of the game as Tramon Williams intercepted a Vick pass intended for Riley Cooper again, in the end zone, with 44 seconds to go to preserve the win for the Packers.[100] Rodgers and Vick were both fantastic. The Eagles outgained the Packers and won the turnover battle 2–1. However, the Packers had longer time of possession. Also, All-Pro kicker David Akers, who was 32/38 on kicks in the regular season, missed two easy field goals. With the loss, Philadelphia was eliminated with an overall record of 10–7.[100]

2011 Pro Bowl Edit

On December 28, the 2011 Pro Bowl rosters were announced by the NFL. Quarterback Michael Vick, offensive tackle Jason Peters, cornerback Asante Samuel and kicker David Akers were named as starters, while wide receiver DeSean Jackson was named as a reserve.[101]

that every Sunday night game after Week 11 has playoff implications In this case the Eagles had a chance to clinch their first NFC East title since 2006 and the sixth in Reid s 12 years as coach with a win However the game was pushed back to Tuesday due to heavy snow in Philadelphia see below Philadelphia delivered the game s opening punch in the first quarter as quarterback Michael Vick found rookie tight end Clay Harbor on a 3 yard touchdown pass The Vikings responded in the second quarter with cornerback Antoine Winfield returning a fumble 45 yards for a touchdown Minnesota took the lead

playoff seed in the NFC Postponement Edit The December 2010 North American blizzard postponed the game until Tuesday December 28 2010 at 8 00 p m out of concern for public safety The game aired on NBC 93 94 The NFL postponed the game shortly after noon even before there was any snow accumulation in Philadelphia 93 after Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter declared a snow emergency for the city 93 Eagles and NFL officials said that the postponement decision was made mainly out of concern for the safety of fans vendors suppliers and stadium workers The game was scheduled to end just before midnight Philadelphia time during the worst of the storm Eagles COO Don Smolenski said the possibility of having over 72 000 people over 69 000 fans plus 3 000 workers stranded in the brunt of the storm made league and team officials conclude it just wasn t safe to play the game on Sunday night 95 League and team officials were also concerned that emergency vehicles wouldn t be able to make it through safely 96 Indeed SEPTA and New Jersey Transit which are utilized by many Eagles fans coming to and leaving games were forced to alter or cancel routes due to the storm 93 The postponement decision was very unpopular in Philadelphia Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell the former mayor of Philadelphia and an avid Eagles fan said that football was a game that was meant to be played in bad weather DeSean Jackson tweeted It s only snow Let us play It must be a lot of fun I m ready let s get it on 93 The next day Rendell told WPEN FM that the postponement was proof that the United States had become a nation of wusses The front page of the Philadelphia Daily News had pictures of Nutter Eagles owner Jeff Lurie Eagles president Joe Banner and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell in beanie caps suggesting they were wimps for postponing the game However Nutter maintained that the city could have had Lincoln Financial Field ready in time for kickoff and the postponement decision was made by the league and the Eagles 97 This was the 20th NFL game to be played on a Tuesday but the first since 1946 93 94 The last Eagles game on a Tuesday was September 26 1944 when they defeated the Boston Yanks in the season opener It was also the Yanks first regular season franchise game The Giants loss to the Packers earlier on Sunday gave the Eagles the NFC East title 98 The Eagles chances of

Round against the 6 Green Bay Packers hoping to avenge their Week 1 loss The Eagles had a terrific early scoring attempt After a three and out the Eagles drove into field goal range but All Pro kicker David Akers missed wide right on a 41 yard field goal attempt The Packers instead snatched the early first quarter lead as Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed a 4 yard touchdown pass to tight end Tom Crabtree for the early lead 100 Green Bay added onto their lead in the second quarter as Rodgers completed a 9 yard touchdown pass to wide receiver James Jones 100 All the Eagles could muster in the first half was a 29 yard field goal from kicker David Akers 100 In the third quarter after an Aaron Rodgers fumble quarterback Michael Vick found wide receiver Jason Avant on a 24 yard touchdown pass The Packers countered right back with an 11 play 80 yard drive which ended Rodgers chunking a 16 yard touchdown pass to running back Brandon Jackson taking 6 17 of the clock At 21 10 the defenses took over for much of the remainder of the game The Eagles drove into scoring range early in the 4th quarter but Akers missed another field goal this time a chip shot from 34 yards keeping it at 21 10 With 8 56 remaining the Eagles took over at their own 25 12 plays and 74 yards later they faced a fourth and goal at the 1 Vick took the snap and rushed forward barely breaking the plain for a 1 yard touchdown run with a failed two point conversion in the fourth quarter On the two point conversion Vick completed the pass to Celek for the score but his back heel went out of bounds and back in before he caught the pass making him an ineligible receiver The five yard penalty moved them back to the 7 yard line Vick s next attempt was incomplete keeping the score 21 16 The Eagles forced a punt and got the ball back at their own 34 with 1 45 remaining Vick hit DeSean Jackson for 28 yards to the Packers 38 After back to back incompletions Vick hit Riley Cooper for 11 yards on 3rd and 10 moving the ball to the Packers 27 with less than a minute remaining However Green Bay s defense stopped the Eagles final drive of the game as Tramon Williams intercepted a Vick pass intended for Riley Cooper again in the end zone with 44 seconds to go to preserve the win for the Packers 100 Rodgers and Vick were both fantastic The Eagles outgained the Packers and won the turnover battle 2 1 However the Packers had longer time of possession Also All Pro kicker David Akers who was 32 38 on kicks in the regular season missed two easy field goals With the loss Philadelphia was eliminated with an overall record of 10 7 100 2011 Pro Bowl EditOn December 28 the 2011 Pro Bowl rosters were announced by the NFL Quarterback Michael Vick offensive tackle Jason
