Video: Merrill Reese's call of DeSean's 'miracle'

POSTED: Sunday, December 19, 2010, 5:21 PM

In case you want to watch it over and over again, here's video of DeSean Jackson's 65-yard punt return that gave the Eagles a miraculous 38-31 win against the Giants Sunday afternoon.

Earlier, I posted on the Eagles' playoff implications and what they need to do to clinch the NFC East.

Hat tip to The 700 Level for getting the video up so qucikly.

Oh, and who heard Jackson say 'unpossible' in his press conference? Will Nothing's Unpossible be this team's rallying cry down the stretch?

If T-shirts are made, all I request is that an MTC logo be present somewhere...

Update: Thanks to reader Michael R. for sending the link of Merrill Reese's call. That one is embedded below.

    Joe Buck has to be the worst play-by-play guy in football history.

    The Reese call is on THE Eagles' website with the clip to view. And people say it's Miracle #2...isn't it #3? People forgetting Westbrook?

    Joe Buck: "Uh, I guess yhe Eagles win, with DeSean crossing the um uh goal line." Worst ever!
    What a game, knew they were coming back after that Jacobs drop, I think it was in the third. He was just past the offensive line, no one within 8 yards, hits him right in the hands and drop. Saw the Giants just moving past the game. Before the return everybody in the room just looked at each other and said, Westbrook...he's gonna do it...rest is history.
