The Carson Wentz prayer candle was sitting in the dining room, not lit since the Super Bowl. Something told Stephanie Ricci not to bring it back out. But last week, it was do or die for the Eagles, who at 4-6 were facing the Giants and needed some help.
The Eagles came from behind to take the game by three points.
Monday night, a match-up against division-rival Washington is another must win. And Ricci is ready to call on the spirits again.
"I didn't want to release some bad juju by burning the same candles as last year,"said Ricci, 32, of Fishtown.
