Ashley Fox: For Cutler, a missed win vs. Eagles

First quarter
Are you kidding me? Opening drive, third-and-1, and the Eagles call a QB draw for Michael Vick? And he gets 34? Nope, not believing that.

Tell me if you've heard this before: Eagles can't score in the red zone. Settle for FG. 3-0 over the Bears.

Jason Avant continues to be a factor. Takes a screen pass 13 yards for a TD. Eagles 10, Bears 0.
If Avant isn't careful, he'll start drawing double teams. 9 catches for 169 yards in the last two games. More to come tonight I'm sure.

If this was a must-win game on Wednesday, I wonder what McNabb thought after watching Cowboys and Giants squeak out Ws today.
McNabb has come out playing like it's a must-win. (And it is.) First quarter stats: 5 of 7 for 56 yards, 1 TD.
Second quarter
Fans are booing Cutler now. Wow, Hester killed Asante Samuel with a double move, and Cutler missed him.

Kahlil Bell? Who? His first-ever rush in the NFL, and he goes 72 yards to the Eagles 10-yard line.
But these are the Bears. They settle for a 28-yard FG. Eagles 10, Bears 6.

Slant to Maclin on the money. Eagles are killing the Bears on third-and-long. Chicago should try giving them third-and-1. They can't get that.

See. Third-and-3, and McNabb throws a pick trying to get the ball to DeSean Jackson.
