The Philadelphia Eagles came into the MetLife as severe underdogs..but two quarters in and one of the leagues elite Defenses are 24-7 down.
The Eagles will get the ball to start the second half..perhaps a worrying thought for the Jets who suffered an 89 yard punt return from Darren Sproles earlier in the game.

The Eagles continued the assault and despite some more dropped passes, it was Sam Bradford finding Ryan Matthews on a wheel route to add the Eagles second touchdown of the day.

But that came after this strange play by Brandon Marshall.

Bradford goes into the second half with a 10-20 completion rate for 93 YDS, 1 TD.
Ryan Matthews has 10 CAR for 67 YDS whilst Jordan Matthews leads the Eagles receiving with 34. After struggling to find any momentum at all in the first half in the opening weeks, the Eagles have amassed 179 rushing yards going into the second half.
Andrew Gardner and Chris Maragos are questionable to return following injury reports.
