THE PHILADELPHIA Eagles gave the rest of the NFL a smidgen of hope on Sunday night: they showed the New England Patriots can be vulnerable.

GARY ANDERSON made what could be his final kick at the Metrodome a memorable one.

A.J. FEELEY threw two touchdown passes and linebacker Carlos Emmons returned a fumble for a touchdown as the Eagles clinched the NFC East title with a 34-21 victory over the Washington Redskins.
