"That's cool," said the Eagles' right cornerback, after a win in which they forced Seattle to punt 11 consecutive times at one point.
"But they're beat up. They're banged up. They're kind of in a tough situation - they were rallying the troops, trying to find and figure their way. They're searching.
"We'll really see where we're at this week," Brown said.
This week. The New York Giants at Lincoln Financial Field. Sunday night football. Truth-telling.
For a while here, the 7-1 Giants have been the name-that-must-not-be-spoken around the Eagles. After all, the Eagles have had their own problems, falling into last place in the NFC East, losing their first two division games to the Cowboys and Redskins.
But now the Eagles have won three games in a row - and if they didn't exactly have to beat the '85 Bears in the process, well, there is no such thing as the '85 Bears in the NFL anymore. They started off painfully slowly yesterday against the
Seahawks, kept their wits about them in a noisy stadium, and then cruised to the finish, bringing their record to 5-3.
The Cowboys, now with four losses, have fallen behind them and into last place in the division. This thing is still likely to convulse a couple more times before the end of the season, because that is what the NFL is anymore, a season full of convulsions.
"It's all about getting into the playoffs and peaking at the right time. That's what New York did," Brown said. "That's the goal, and we are getting better, no doubt about that. But
we're not consistent."
They gave up a 90-yard touchdown pass to Koren Robinson on the Seahawks' first offensive play, when Lito Sheppard fell and then Brian Dawkins got outmaneuvered trying to make the tackle downfield. But that was it. As safety Quintin Mikell said, "They got a play on us and we said, 'No more.' "
