Who were those guys in Blue and Yellow today? It certianly wasn't the same Eagles offense that showed up in weeks one & two.

Humorous(kinda) wrap up of week 3 of the NFL Season. Randy Moss, Philip Rivers and LT pick out curtains. And the Eagles beat the snot out of the Lions while dressed like circus clowns. DeAngelo Hall's punishment will be playing for the Falcons this week, and the complementary Paris Hilton Joke with a side of penicillin.
