SETTLING IN AT A WIDE RATIO

When you calculate the sacks into the total number of plays, the Eagles are throwing the ball almost 60 percent of the time. Not having Brian Westbrook for two of those games no doubt has skewed the numbers a bit.

Yesterday

Runs: 21

36.8%

Passes: 36

61.1%

Sacks: 0

This season

Runs: 140

37.8%

Passes: 220

59.4%

Sacks: 10

FINALLY, ONE TO SAVOR

The game before the bye hasn't been a good one for the Eagles, who won yesterday for only the fourth time during Andy Reid's tenure.

Year Foe Outcome

1999 Patriots W, 24-9

2000 at Browns W, 35-24

2001 Cardinals L, 21-20
