Fourth quarter update: So that's it. That's how the Eagles go out, with a big fat zero. No points. No heart. No division title or first-round bye. No way.
In 60 minutes, the Eagles have gone from NFC favorite to dog. They've gone from having a bye and then at least one home playoff game to having the hardest road possible. If they're going to go to the Super Bowl, and at this point it doesn't look like they've got the ability to get past the first round, they'll have to do it on the road, on the road, on the road.
In seven days, the Eagles are going to have to figure out an answer to the Cowboys pass rush. They'll have to figure out a way to get DeSean Jackson involved. They'll have to figure out how to stop Miles Austin. And they'll have to figure out how to win in a building that packed in more than 100,000 people. Impossble? No. But likely? No.
