Reddit mentions of Philadelphia Eagles: The Complete History

Not sure if you were just looking at the Philadelphia Eagles Wiki page, but here is a decent place to start reading: History of the Philadelphia Eagles

It is a little bit more in depth than the base Eagles Wiki page.

NFL Films put out a decent history a few years ago. but it only covers up to 2004. Still a good video to check out to view a lot of the older Eagles stuff. It is $11 bucks on Amazon

I grew up in an Eagles household, so I followed from a very young age. I get all nostalgic about the players of the Buddy Ryan era.

I'll share a couple fan favorite games.

Games

The Miracle at the Meadowland (1978) - a fumble recovery by cornerback Herman Edwards that he returned for a touchdown at the end of a November 19, 1978 NFL game against the New York Giants in Giants Stadium. It is considered miraculous because the Giants were ahead and could easily have run out the final seconds; they had the ball, and the Eagles had no timeouts left. Everyone watching expected quarterback Joe Pisarcik to take one more snap and kneel with the ball, thus running out the clock and preserving a 17-12 Giants upset. Instead, he botched an attempt to hand off the football to fullback Larry Csonka. Edwards picked up the dropped ball and ran 26 yards for the winning score.

The Miracle at the Meadowland 2 (2003) - Donovan McNabb suffered through one of the worst games of his professional career. He completed nine of 23 passes for 64 yards and an interception. The Eagles were 2-3 and saw their season slipping away. While a 2-4 start wouldn't necessarily equal no playoffs, it would mean the Eagles needed to likely win eight of the final 10 games to appear in January.

With 1:30 to play, the Eagles trailed 10-7 but the Giants had to punt. Rookie running back and return man Brian Westbrook fielded the punt on one bounce and ran it back for a touchdown.

Miracle at the New Meadowlands (2010) - The greatest comeback in the history of the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles had been manhandled by the Giants for the first three quarters and trailed by 21 points with under eight minutes to play in the 4th quarter. They went on to score four unanswered touchdowns in the final seven minutes and 28 seconds of play. The final score to win the game, 38–31, came off a punt returned for a touchdown by DeSean Jackson as time expired. Jackson became the first player in NFL history to achieve a walk-off punt return touchdown

The Body Bag Game (1990) - game that was played on November 12, 1990 between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Washington Redskins at Veterans Stadium. Its nickname comes from a comment by an Eagles player directed at a Redskins player: "an Eagle reacted to one injured Redskin lying on the turf by yelling, 'Do you guys need any more body bags?'"


Edit: Yea I typed this up earlier and walked away and never hit submit. ToTheBlack covers most of what I put here.
