There was a moment in the first half when it looked like the Eagles might be about to make a game of it with the New Orleans Saints.
After a miserable start that put them in a 17-0 hole — gaining just 15 net yards on its first three drives — Philadelphia responded by putting together its first touchdown drive of the game and following that up by forcing a Saints three and out. They took the ball back and started marching downfield against the New Orleans defense.

I think the Who Dat Nation should share the photo of Heather all day so all the Eagles fan will never forget her !
: ) Who Dat !
Drew Brees threw three touchdown passes in the first half, moving ahead of Brett Favre for second place on the career list, and the New Orleans Saints rolled to their eighth straight victory Sunday, 51-14 over the Cincinnati Bengals.
What a game.. The Who Dat Nation was loud in Cincinnati !
It was an amazing game, and great to end the game on a win !
Speaking of amazing..
An MRI confirmed that wide receiver Dez Bryant has suffered a torn Achilles and now faces an expected eight-month recovery, a source told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Saturday.
Two days after signing with the New Orleans Saints, Bryant suffered the injury on the final play of Friday’s practice, a source confirmed to Schefter, after it was first reported by NFL Network.
Michael Thomas wanted to do his best to exactly recreate former New Orleans Saints wide receiver Joe Horn’s infamous touchdown celebration, and in a way, the NFL helped him get there.
The NFL levied a $30,000 fine against Thomas Saturday (Nov. 10) for pulling a cell phone out of the padding of the Mercedes-Benz Superdome goal posts as part of a touchdown celebration last week against the Rams. Thomas was paying homage to former Saints receiver Joe Horn, who performed the same celebration with the Saints 15 years earlier.
Horn’s fine for his celebration? Also $30,000.
As of Wednesday morning, the New Orleans Saints had not signed a new wide receiver.
Not Dez Bryant. Not Brandon Marshall. Not Kamara Aiken.
Those three veterans worked out for the Saints on Tuesday, but coach Sean Payton said Wednesday those tryouts were just business as usual for the Saints.

Preseason rank: 3 | Week 9: 3
Expectations were obviously high for the Saints to start with. But they have exceeded them so far by proving they can win with different styles during a brutal three-game stretch (come-from-behind slugfests at Baltimore and at Minnesota, then a 45-35 track meet at home against the Rams). It helps that Drew Brees, Alvin Kamara and Michael Thomas are putting together one of the best “triplets” seasons in NFL history. — Mike Triplett
