jake elliot just signed to the team after a caleb sturgis injury, from 30 out. chip shot.ere went throws fourth quarter interceptionment changed the momentum of the game. the eagles need to clean these up before the giants come to town next week. now aside from the mistakes the eagles seem to run out of gas in the fourth quarter. kareem hunt, the chiefs super rookie gouged them, for two touchdowns in the second half, including this one, 53 yarder. and travis kelsey, jason's little brother, also a handful. he finished with eight catches for 103 yards. and that touchdown right there, hard to fault the defense, they played relatively strong, throughout. making it tough on alex smith to get comfortable. now, before he looked spent in the fourth quarter, carson wentz is pretty good. pretty much the entire eagles offense. went 25 of 36 for 333 yards and two scores, connected when alshon jeffrey for 92 yards, so wentz obviously a breitbart spot on offense. but what's not a breitbart spot. the running game it has gone completely mia. eagles called just 13 runs which wentz dropping
