I listened to Vic Fangio and a few Eagles defensive players Wednesday evening looking for – I don’t know. Fire and brimstone, maybe? Rally-round-the-flag talk? “We’re much better than this and we won’t rest until we prove it?”
Didn’t quite hear those things.
Cooper DeJean might have come closest.
“We’ve got a great group of guys who aren’t going to back down from any challenge,” DeJean said, even though most of us believe we just saw them back down from a challenge in Monday night’s 38-21 home loss to Dallas. “We talked about this today. This is the hole we dug ourselves. We’ve got to get ourselves out of it. No one’s coming to help us.”

Les,
I commented in another column that never did I think that the Eagles and Flyers would turn my winter sports viewing into a barren landscape and that coming across the horizon would be the Sixers to give me hope and some watchable Philadelphia sports. Never did I think the Sixers would ride to my rescue.
