Monday Night Football, Eagles vs. Colts: Philadelphia notches comeback win

Indianapolis fans were fuming at NFL officials Monday Night. Sports fans getting angry at refs is nothing new, but the Colts have a couple of legitimate gripes thanks to one missed call and one questionable penalty during the crucial final five minutes of the game.

The Eagles were on the road for Monday Night Football and escaped with an impressive win over a playoff team from 2013 and the favorite to win the AFC South again this year. But while the comeback was highlighted by the work of Chip Kelly’s offense and the explosive play of Darren Sproles, there were two misses by the refs that played a major role in the outcome.

Nick Foles led the Eagles on a game-winning drive, as Cody Parkey kicked a 36-yard field goal as time expired to give Philadelphia a 30-27 victory against the Indianapolis Colts Monday night.

The win moves the Eagles to 2-0, while the Colts fall to 0-2. Here’s what we learned Monday night:

Remember Darren Sproles bowling over a few dudes on the way to the end zone earlier? He wasn’t done:

That’s 57 yards, and believe it or not, he has more fantasy points than LeSean McCoy. (135 receiving yards, 26 rushing, and a TD.)

We don’t know what you’re supposed to be, but we do know that we would hate sitting behind you. Or near you. You scare us, okay?

UPDATE: This man is apparently well known and also likes the Pacers:

Things looked kinda bleak for the Eagles, as they trailed the Colts 20-6 more than halfway through the third quarter ... then, a LeSean McCoy TD, a Trent Richardson fumble, and this Darren Sproles scramble, and we’re tied:

Crazy fight from the little guy, but that’s pretty much the Darren Sproles story.

Got a little bit of Elaine Benes in him.

The Colts are 3-point favorites at home against the visiting Eagles. The over/under is set at 53.5. You can check out details at OddsShark.
