The Eagles moved the ball up and down the field in this game but they didn’t get a lot of points.  It didn’t matter because the defense made it stand up.  Donovan McNabb has a decent game as he completed 22 of 35 passes for 278 yards with 1 TD pass and 1 INT.  Brian Westbrook returned to action and he carried the ball 20 times for 120 yards (6.0 ypc) and he also caught 6 passes for 36 yards (6.0 avg).  Kevin Curtis had another excellent game as he led the way for the Eagles receivers with 5 catches for 121 yards (24.2 avg) with a TD grab.  Reggie Brown also finally showed up for the season as he caught 6 passes for 89 yards (14.8 avg).  The Eagles finished up with 151 yards rushing on 28 carries (5.4 ypc) and they also completed 22 of 35 passes for 262 yards.

The defense played a good game especially against the pass.  Safety Sean Considine led the way on the defense with 10 tackles.  CB Sheldon Brown also had a solid game with 5 tackles and 1 interception.  The Jets did rush for 158 yards on 32 carries (4.9 ypc) but they only completed 11 of 21 passes for 109 yards.
