Fifty-six seconds remained on the clock before halftime. The Eagles led 32-14 on Saturday night in Green Bay and had the ball on their 8-yard line. Conventional football says quarterback Mark Sanchez takes a knee and the Eagles go happily into the locker room with a big lead.
Conventional, this Eagles offense is not.
Instead, the Eagles pushed the gas pedal to the floor. On first down, a Sanchez screen pass to Kenjon Barner opened up and Barner gained 50 yards to the Green Bay 42-yard line and the race to the end zone was on.
