For the Eagles, the playoffs already have begun. At 6-5-1, they no longer have any margin for error. They have to win out to have any chance of making the playoffs.

That's not going to be easy, particularly considering that three of their remaining four games are against division opponents, starting with the 11-1 New York Giants Sunday up in the Meadowlands.

"This is a must-win game for us," quarterback Donovan McNabb said. "In order for us to go forward, we have to win this game."

In order for the Eagles to beat the Giants, they're going to need a solid performance from McNabb, which is no sure thing. Before turning it around with an impressive performance in a 48-20 win over the Arizona Cardinals on Thanksgiving night, McNabb had been in a five-week funk that...

For only the second time this season, the Eagles failed to register a quarterback sack in Thursday night's 48-20 win over the Arizona Cardinals.

But that didn't mean Jim Johnson's defense didn't get any pressure on Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner. Just the opposite.

The Eagles' defensive line was in Warner's face much of the night, forcing hurried throws that resulted in three interceptions and never letting him get comfortable in the pocket.
