Cardinals 21, Eagles 24

The Cardinals lose a tough one, 24-21 to the Eagles today in Philadelphia.  The Cardinals fall to 7-5 with this loss.  The Cardinals really needed this one to stay close in the wildcard race, they've now got their work cut out for them.  For whatever reason, the Cardinals didn't seem to show up until the second half, they certainly didn't come out looking like the team that had won their past 4 games, they had a chance at the end though, they just couldn't pull it out. 

Observations:

• And so ends the Cardinals 4 game winning streak.  
• Carson Palmer has now passed for more than 3,000 yards on the season.
• Palmer has also now thrown for 2+ TD's in 5 straight games.  
• Andre Ellington was missed at RB. 
• Turnovers:  Cardinals 3, Eagles 0 
• Another strong game from Karlos Dansby.  Team MVP? 
• Tyrann Mathieu seems to have hit that rookie wall.  
• Can we look ahead to the draft yet?  OL, OL, more OL.
• John Abraham continued his terror, he now has 130 career sacks. 
• Fitz has now caught a pass in 141 straight games.  Another TD too.
• There seemed to be some questionable officiating in this game.  Just saying.
• 3 more TD passes for Nick Foles, he now has 19 TDs and 0 interceptions on the year.
• Up next?  The St. Louis Rams @ home next Sunday.
