The inability to capitalize on Malcolm Jenkins' blocked field goal, and mistakes by players who needed to step up amid injuries, cost the Philadelphia Eagles in a 27-24 loss to the Detroit Lions, and has put the Super Bowl hopefuls in a precarious position heading into Thursday night's game at the Green Bay Packers. Philadelphia has loads of talent but early injuries have hit the veteran-laden roster hard. And with DeSean Jackson (abdominal strain) expected to miss Thursday's game in Green Bay, and Alshon Jeffery (quad) iffy, the Eagles enter a critical game against the Packers shorthanded.
SHORT WEEK FOR A BANGED UP TEAM..:facepalm:
