Terrell Owens, earned my respect with a great game. He had more heart than the rest of his team combined.

I completely agree with that. I always figured TO to be all about himself, and a guy who would be more concerned with drawing a paycheque for the next 5 years than trying to be a champion. But he went against orders for the chance and was the Eagles best offensive player. I still think he's a bit of a tool, but I have a lot more respect for him today.

Why is New England so good?? I think the fact that they ran the ball on third and 5 knowing they'd likely have to give the ball back to the Eagles to purposefully eat up clock. A lot of teams may not have the confidence in their defence and special teams to risk not going for the first down on that play. Instead they pin the Eagles inside the 5 on a play where a lot of punters and special teams units would screw up and punt it into the End zone. With 65 yards to go, backed up into their own end zone and no timeouts left the Eagles had no chance.
