This was a blood bath... it reminded me of a quote from an ancient Greek general named Pyyrhrus, who stated after winning a battle where he lost half his army in the process--- “Another victory like this, and we’re done for.”There were many casualties and much collateral damage to both the Eagles and the Ravens. Jason Kelce is probably out for the season with a severe knee injury. It was ugly. Chaos dominated the action as the replacement referees were unmasked yet again---they simply cannot keep up with the speed of the NFL game---and they could have cost either team the game with bad calls and no-calls.And I hereby nominate Michael Vick as MVP of the game--- because he kept BOTH teams in the game!If not for some untimely bad decisions by Vick, the Eagles could have run away with this one... but Vick's boo-boo's kept it close all the way.With the game on the line, though, Michael Vick made most of the right decisions --- and got lucky---again.
