Passage: The Eagles came out flat and lost 10-3 to the Washington Redskins in a game that was almost a must-win for them (thanks to the losses by the Cowboys and Buccaneeers). After a scoreless first quarter, Redskins kicker Shaun Suisham kicked a 33-yard field goal to send Eagles to halftime with a 3-0 deficit.  In the third quarter, Washington cashed in on a fumble recovery deep in Philadelphia territory when running back Clinton Portis scored on a 1-yard touchdown run.  The Eagles answered with kicker David Akers nailing a 22-yard field goal to make it 10-3 Washington.  With 3:48 to play, Philadelphia's offense mustered up a late-game drive.  After a couple of incomplete passes in the direction of DeSean Jackson, a pair of receptions by Brian Westbrook got the Eagles inside the Washington red zone.  However, the rally fell short when a pass to wide receiver Reggie Brown only got to the 1-yard line, as Redskins cornerback Fred Smoot and safety LaRon Landry tackled Brown shy of the goal line, allowing time to run out.  The Eagles dropped to 8-6-1, and needed losses by Tampa Bay and Chicago, and a win against Dallas to get into the playoffs. It was thought at the time that the season was over (other than last regular-season game).
