Week four was tough to watch as, offensively, the Eagles couldn’t get out of their own way, but here’s an interesting nugget about Eagles fans. They may not always remember the score and a few may not always remember the result, but they all remember when somebody gets knocked out.

The Eagles weren’t going anywhere by season’s end, but thanks to this play, neither were “the Cowgirls”.
