Les Bowen: Further Review: LeSean's and DeSean's strip lessons

I really don't know what to make of the fact that the Eagles are 4-0 without Brian Westbrook this season. I still think Westbrook's veteran leadership, his blitz-pickup savvy, the fact that he pretty much never fumbles - these are things the Eagles must have to win in the postseason. But there is considerable young talent here, obviously. No other Eagles team I've covered could have gone 4-0 without Westbrook.

Extra point

 

This, finally, was the sort of thing we envisioned when the Eagles signed Michael Vick. A 34-yard run on third-and-1. A handoff to LeSean McCoy for another third-and-short conversion. The check-down pass to Brent Celek didn't go anywhere, but first downs on two of three Vick snaps is huge progress.

The Vick experiment is never going to amount to a huge percentage of the Eagles' plays, as Donovan McNabb noted afterward. But two key first downs, from the guy who essentially is the third-string quarterback, that's worthwhile, if you get it every week or even every other week. Not when you get it every once in a great while, though.
