Vick-tory! Eagles QB Accounts For Six TDs In 59-28 Dismantling Of Redskins

That’s not the case, Landry writes on Twitter.

Missing in this Twitter message is a clear denial.

Landry and Hall reportedly made “go to sleep” and “night, night” gestures taunting him for the Week 6 concussion he received on a hit from Dunta Robinson. Jackson’s concussion in Week 6 received a lot of publicity and was one of the examples that contributed to the NFL upping the consequence for illegal hits.

As SB Nation’s Bleeding Green Nation notes, the pregame trash talking hardly worked out for Landry and Hall.

However you feel about Vick, the proof is in the statistics. 20-28 for 333 yards and four touchdowns to go with 80 yards on eight rushes complete with two touchdowns. That line is so good, it might just be the best…ever?

Williams just inked his second touchdown of the night, a 32-yard scamper that makes it a slightly-more-but-not-really respectable 39-28 with 11:16 left in the game.

I’m beginning to think the contract extension was a bad idea.

Williams now has 31 yards on 10 rushes and the touchdown. It doesn’t sound like much but the Redskins take their successes where they can get them.

Just as it seemed the Redskins might have a glimmer of hope to make this disaster of a game into a competitive contest after scoring two touchdowns following starting out to a 35-0 deficit, the Eagles scored another 10 points before the end of the first half to put the game prohibitively out of reach before the break.

The Eagles were driving at the end of the half ahead 42-14 with a chance to tie the 1983 Packers for the highest first half score in NFL history. Those Packers scored 49 points in the first half of a game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Eagles were forced to kick a field goal, and thus were denied one record.

In the first 20 minutes of the Monday night game in Washington, you could have been excused for assuming the Redskins just decided to spend the evening celebrating Donovan McNabb’s new contract money and not even bother to show up.

But after falling behind 35-0, the Redskins have put up touchdowns on consecutive drives after not having registered a single first down before the team fell behind five scores.

The Eagles added a 50-yard touchdown run from Jerome Harrison and already their leading has expanded to 28-0 with minutes remaining in the first quarter of the Monday night game. Though Harrison splits some carries with LeSean McCoy, it’s almost as though Philadelphia can already give way to back-ups the way this is going.

The 28-0 score also happens to be the largest lead a road team has posted after one quarter in the history of the NFL. Yeah, that’s pretty significant.

Inside the first five minutes of action in FedEx Field, the Eagles gained 151 total yards and two touchdowns. One of them was the result of one play: an 88-yard bomb to DeSean Jackson. The second was the result of a quick and surgical Eagles drive that went five plays for 63 yards and ended with a seven-yard Michael Vick scramble for a touchdown.

The Redskins, hoping for some sort of response to stanch the Eagles onslaught, turned the ball over. On a 3rd down pass play, Donovan McNabb seemed to hit Santana Moss toward the left side, but the ball went through his hands and into the grasp of the Eagles’ Kurt Coleman.

The Redskins beat the Eagles in the teams’ first meeting this season in Philadelphia. Of course, the ‘Skins also knocked Eagles starter Michael Vick out early in the game with a rib injury.

Vick showed right away in the second meeting why the Eagles might have missed his contributions through most of the Week 4 loss to the Redskins. On the opening play of the Monday night game in FedEx Field, Michael Vick rolled to his left and hit DeSean Jackson deep over the middle for an 88-yard touchdown.

As the Eagles were leaving the field following warm-ups to prepare for pregame festivities, a scuffle broke out between Philadelphia and Washington players, though there was little physical altercation, so much as a mass of players yelling each other from both sides as officials and coaches worked to separate the fighting factions.

Michael Vick was shown in the middle of the pack of yelling players. The ESPN broadcast team later showed that a shouting match between Eagles receiver DeSean Jackson and Redskins safety LaRon Landry preceded the full scrum of clashing players.

Missing Portis is nothing new for the Redskins as he’s been out since Week 4 with a groin injury. He was officially listed as questionable for the game. As SB Nation DC notes, Portis’ injury was originally expected to be 4-6 weeks and this is the sixth week so there’s hope that he’ll be available next week.

Taking his place will once again be Ryan Torain, who has done a decent job replacing Portis. Torain had consecutive 100-plus yard games before his nine-carry-for-10-yard stinker in Week 8. The Eagles are solid against the run so Torain will have to earn his yards in Week 10.

Vick says despite the extra pressure of Monday Night Football, he’s treating it as just another game.
