seemed certain he was going to get sacked. they march down the field and scored. huge game changing play. 2:00 warning. two time-outs for the redskins down by ten. they stop blount short of the first down by 2 1/2 yards. four touchdown passes. career high. 64 rushes yards, a career high. he is the nfl leader by himself in touchdown passes with 17. >> jon: the numbers are great. everybody is going to go crazy in the fantasy football world about wentz but when you look at the film or go watch this man play you don't realize how he did it. unbelievable scrambling. pocket toughness. pinpoint passing. audibles. those numbers don't even do this

>> sean: he's in control of this offense. mentioned they have given him much more flexibility at the line of scrimmage than he is rewarding their fate. blount. everything to escape but cannot. good penetration by the redskins and they're battling all the way to the finish. zach brown finished off blount and washington uses its last time-out. we have talked about wentz the person, man of tremendous faith, if you watched espn this week you probably saw the piece about lucas custers 10-year-old who lost a year long battle with cancer over the summer. he had a visit from carson wentz. actually carson wentz sent him a video wishing him well. custers family here on the field tonight. when it was obvious

getting near the end, make a wish asked him what he wanted and he said he wanted to thank carson wentz. he's a tremendous young man. one of those people who lives it. when you are around him, you can feel the inherent goodness that he has coming from his faith. >> jon: it's unbelievable. he thanks his lord jesus christ gives him more confidence and allows him to cut things loose. he is really done an unbelievable job at north dakota state. he ran his own bible study. doing that here in philadelphia. he doesn't push it down anybody's throat. but good for him. he is a great person that has made a huge impact on and off the field and if you're into good stories, follow this man around. >> sean: the family told the story they were blown away when they saw carson wentz wearing

destroyer, that was his nickname when he played football. loved football. and carson is keeping in touch with the family. the young man was buried in a carson wentz jersey. barnett, the play for philadelphia. second and 22. second sack of the night for the rookie out of tennessee. screen for thompson. has been effective a couple times in the fourth quarter. jaylen watkins to play for the eagles. >> jon: you look at these philadelphia eagles in the defense. look at them. they're all standing back near the 40 yard line. they're just watching these four men in front of them go after the quarterback. and it's fun to watch. these four pass rushers get off the ball.

>> sean: how about that effort. still ten yards short of the first down. 30 seconds to go. and the redskins about to go down go to 3-3. and kirk cousins will be 0-6. hard to play him tonight. as usual, he has given it his all. thrown for 303 yards. certainly below average by nfl standards and he has good company in 0-6. the only other quarterbacks lose their first six were joe namath and archie manning. they wound up winning for monday night football games. he's going to win before he's done. question down the road will be will it be as a redskin playing on the transition tag again

year? espn news is projecting philadelphia as the winner of this game. and go to six and one and the redskins tie with the cowboys. >> jon: some kind of projection there. >> sean: they're going out on the whim tonight. no more room left on the wentz wagon here in philadelphia. it is completely full. give doug pederson, frank wright a lot of credit for the great coaching they have done with that young man. ten-point win for philadelphia. we'll see you next week from kansas city. scott: coming up on isortscenter," louis riddick this the best team, all of the fl, we will show you ben simmons very first ever triple-double. limited minutes

the hide and seek celebration, not be attempted again. "sportscenter" after this. you for watching this presentation of the national football league.

>> for reaction and analysis, time now for abc 7's postgame special. erin: the redskins fall to 3-3. the eagles improve to 6-1. the skins started strong but could not hold on against carson wentz and a very good eagles team in philly. give the young man some credit, his growth from the first year to the second has been remarkable, as the redskins lose by just 10 points. and you are looking at the press room, w

the podium any minute now, and we will bring it to you live when he does. just an incredible game for the redskins. they hung on, started strong. is thisght, hey, who team, they may actually pull off the win, but then they started to unravel a little bit. we are joined by lamont jordan. what did you like, what didn't you like? lamont: i like the way the redskins started. they started off great. fastthe redskins start off and kind of stumble a fit. then the second half they do not go all the way. i don't think they ran the ball enough. i noticed that in the first half. jay's playcalling come if he passed on first down, he would run. erin: the eagles have the number one

league. could that be part of it? day,t: at the end of the when you are a football team come it is not matter if you are first in the league, last in the league, you come up with a game plan. erin: how good is carson wentz? about it inalked the pregame, you have to contain him and keep him in the pocket. early on the redskins did a good job, but then later on he was running. erin: that scramble, though. lamont: i turned around and jumped up. erin: the other quarterback, kirk cousins, what was your assessment? lamont: kirk was kirk. he was under a lot of pressure. i don't like with the backs are doing. enough, not getting out the pass protection. i notice they are standing a yard behind kirk, which puts them in terrible position when you are talking about pass

the manual responsible for, he is just sitting in the middle of the field and he is undercutting the other routes. they have to work on that. ger got beat ain couple of times. lamont: this was a terrible game for him. erin: and this was a game when they needed him because of the other injuries. to that, quinton dunbar has really stepped up. tonight was not the night for d.j. swearinger. lamont: something i did not like about this game was from the offensive standpoint, when the defense gives you an opportunity and forces the eagles to punt, you have to drive the ball down the field and get some points. erin: the redskins have a tough stretch coming up. next week they host the cowboys, another nfc east vi

it's not getting any easier. scott, what is your take away from this? thet: you know what, erin, redskins started off good, building a 10-3 lead in the second quarter, and then it went downhill quickly at lincoln financial field. i think the, redskins awakened a sleeping giant. after they took the lead, wentz and the eagles responded with three straight touchdown scoring drives. carson wentz was dialed in all game. the skins lost the turnover battle, could not run the football, and not convert a third down attempt until the beginning of the third quarter. that, my friends, is not a recipe for success. the redskins fall to 3-3 on the season. you can get some positives from the game. yeah, they showed some glimpses, got after wentz

the first quarter, but the secondary was banged up again. they have to go back to the drawing board. the season is far from being over. they have a huge game with the cowboys at fedex field sunday, so they are very much alive for the wild card game. they have to regroup, get back to the drawing board, and hopefully get a win against the cowboys.

erin: welcome

postgame special. erin hawksworth and lamont jordan with you. the eagles beat the redskins by 10 points. we knew what would not be easy going in, facing this team. if you really thought the redskins were going to pull this out, you were probably in the minority. jay gruden going back to the play calling this season. pointed out the play-by-play, and showed me on first down the redskins would run the ball, second down pass. on first down if they passed, the second down they were always running. that seems very predictable. what were your thoughts? lamont: it is very predictable and this is something you have to correct. as far as the playcalling is concerned, when it comes to the running game, i want to see them doing the things they did against the rams. erin: i'm sorry to interrupt. jay gruden is at the podium. coach gruden:

he sprained both ankles, the other player had a contusion and came back in. >> [inaudible] coach gruden: credit philadelphia, they played hard, coach peterson had his team ready to go. couplemade a unbelievable plays in crunch time, so that is a credit to them. we are not using the injuries as an excuse. they played better than us today. >> [inaudible] coach gruden: that was a big play by carson. we had some momentum, and then they completed the big one down the sideline. that was a big play. you feel like you were going into halftime in good shape, and they were up by seven going into the half. that was a big turnaround for them. [inaudible] coach gruden:

i do not see him. he was just in a ball and they do not blow the whistle and he did not seem to get tackled, and he came out. guys were rushing down the field. he got down so low that we lost sight of him, nobody had a good grasp of them, and a great play by him. >> [inaudible] coach gruden: who? >> [inaudible] coach gruden: we started josh and we were going to get to rail late.l in >> [inaudible] coach gruden: we had third and1.5 and we tried a pick play to jordan that did not work out. we had another play that did not work out either. but obviously you wish you had them back.
