Postgame – Philadelphia

C Daniel Kilgore (transcribed by Bryce Reddick)

(The offense seemed to step up. Did you feel that you were just able to keep that passing game going on the second half?) “Definitely, ‘Fitz’ (Ryan Fitzpatrick) had his hits. We’ve got to do better protecting him. We’ve got to start faster. We’ve got to be able to protect him early in the ball game and not just have what we had in the second half. We’ve got to do that full game. But ‘Fitz’ being able to sit back there and put the ball in the receivers’ (hands), and the receivers, you can’t say enough about them today. I mean they really stepped up and played their asses off and caught everything coming their way. The defense played lights out. Special teams was huge for us today with the fake field goal. We took a shot there after halftime (with the onside kick) but it didn’t work out, so the defense did a good job. Again, this falls back on complementary football. “

(How critical was that six-minute drive in the fourth quarter?) – “Yeah, big time. We’re tired and everything but we look up at the clock and the more time we can run off the clock, the better. It was a real good gut check for our offensive line and for everybody around us and I felt like in that situation, we stepped up to the plate.”

(Take us through that fake field goal.) – “It’s a play that we’ve had for a while and we’ve worked it and we saw an opportunity. Danny (Crossman), our special teams coach, he’s willing to – we are at the point in the season where we don’t have much to lose, so why not take a shot? it worked out. We executed it well. I didn’t see the replay but I just saw a touchdown and that was good enough for me.”
