The Eagles was able to do whatever they wanted in the Week 11 bouncing of the Falcons 49-21.

On the 1st 2 Falcons offensive plays, they through an interception and a caught pass was fumble and recovered by Philly.  Thiugs didn't get any better the rest of the way for the Falcons who gave up 190+ on the ground to M Sanders and both Philly QB's combined to go 23-31, for 263 yards for 3 tds.

The Eagles defense picked of J Garoppolo 3 times and forced a fumble.

The only bright side for the Falcons was that J Jones fill in R Gage went for 9 catches 188 yards and 2 tds.  T Gurley was held to a low 5 carries on 5 yards, due to game script not in favor of the ran game, as the Falcons were down 21-0 before getting their 1st 1st down.

So, the Falcons drop to 4-6 on the season and now have to face the NFC West leading LA Rams at home.
