But as Gibbs and his coaches tried to sort through the players and get the field goal unit aligned, the Philadelphia Eagles called a timeout, and the game slipped from their grasp for good. Suddenly, Gibbs had a moment to collect his thoughts, and, as he put it, he "decided to take a shot" that resulted in a momentum-changing touchdown. The Redskins went on to a 20-12 victory at Lincoln Financial Field that put them at 2-0 and left Philadelphia reeling at 0-2.

Somewhat ironic that the Eagles timeout helped the Redskins win.

Eagles tried to copy the Broncos late time out strategy. Dumb.
Maybe Reid is still distracted by family problems.
You are now 2 for 2 in our head to head match-ups.
