McNabb hit Curtis on third down, then L.J. Smith for a 6-yarder coupled with a 15-yard Giants penalty. He went right back to Curtis for 15, then Brent Celek for 6. Two short runs by Westbrook closed the quarter and gave the Eagles a first down at the 1-yard line.

Drive: 2:21, 5 plays, 20 yards. Downs.
EAGLES: Seizing the opportunity handed them by the defense, the Birds went three-and-out.
