FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- It was perfect, from the jump Chris Maragos got off the line of scrimmage, to the way he timed his body and arm extension to block Ryan Allen's punt, to the way Najee Goode scooped up the bouncing football and sprinted 24 yards for a late-first half touchdown to give the Eagles a 14-14 tie with New England heading into halftime on Sunday at Gillette Stadium.
It was more than Maragos and Goode, of course, as special teams came up huge just before halftime in a 35-28 win over New England.
