Eagles Make Right Calls In 30-27 Win Over Colts

[...] Andrew Luck and the Colts made too many mistakes. The Eagles turned two second-half turnovers, including an inexplicable late interception of Luck, into 14 points and eventually made a 36-yard field goal as time expired to beat the Colts 30-27. Sproles ran 19 yards for a touchdown, tying the score at 20, and took a short pass 51 yards down the field to set up the touchdown that tied the score at 27, too. Two plays later, Colts safety LaRon Landry was called for a 15-yard penalty on a horse-collar tackle even though replays appeared to show Landry pulling down LeSean McCoy by the jersey instead of putting his hands inside McCoy's shoulder pads. The small, fleet, versatile runner almost single-handedly derailed Indy's 2008 playoff run by leading San Diego to an overtime win. Cody Parkey may have had the toughest job in training camp — trying to beat out Adam Vinatieri for a spot on the Colts' roster. After missing an early field goal Monday, Parkey was money when it mattered most, making the 36-yard field goal twice (once as the Colts called timeout) to beat his former team.
