PHILADELPHIA - The Philadelphia Eagles hid their flaws and overcame glaring weaknesses for three-quarters of the season.Then came December.Three straight losses, including a crushing 27-24 defeat to Washington (4-11) on Saturday, has the Eagles (9-6) on the brink of playoff elimination. If Dallas beats Indianapolis late Sunday afternoon, the Eagles are finished.No one couldve predicted this collapse after Philadelphia whipped the Cowboys 33-10 on the road on Thanksgiving to take control of the NFC East.But the Eagles followed that up with home losses to Seattle and Dallas before falling flat against the Redskins, who snapped a six-game losing streak with the victory.Its very frustrating to us to control our destiny when we are 9-3 and to have this happen, said tight end Zach Ertz, who set a franchise record with 15 catches against Washington. Were very disappointed. Ultimately, it falls on the players. We didnt execute the game, either of the three games. Its very disheartening.The Eagles would win the division if they beat the Giants next week and the Cowboys finish with losses to the Colts and at Washington. They dont have a chance at a wild-card berth.A turnover-prone offence and defence that allows too many big plays were the downfall for this team. The Eagles found ways to hide their mistakes and win games for most of the season, but couldnt do it any longer. They were helped early in the season by 10 touchdowns from their special teams and defence.But once they stopped getting those bonus scores, they struggled. Meanwhile, the offence kept turning the ball over.Mark Sanchez threw for a career-high 374 yards and had a franchise-record 37 completions against the Redskins, but his interception in the final minutes paved the way for Washingtons win.Sanchez has 14 turnovers in eight games since replacing Nick Foles after he broke his collarbone. Foles had 13 turnovers.You have to win games, Sanchez said. The head coach and the quarterback, we are the only ones who keep a record, so it goes with the territory of this position. There have been three really tough games and this one came down to the wire and we came up a little short.Penalties hurt the Eagles during the three-game losing streak, especially ones committed by the defence. The defence had three penalties against the Redskins on the third down that kept drives going and resulted in 17 points.You arent going to win a football game that way, coach Chip Kelly said. We left them on the field too long.The secondary also allowed several big plays, including a pair of 50-yard receptions by DeSean Jackson on Bradley Fletcher. Last week, Dez Bryant caught three touchdown passes against Fletcher. Cary Williams switched over to cover Bryant after the damage. Fletcher was finally benched in base defence situations after Jackson caught four passes for 126 yards against him.Several of those passing plays came when defensive co-ordinator Billy Davis allowed Fletcher to cover his man one-on-one with no safety help. Nate Allen intercepted Robert Griffin III on one deep pass to Jackson when the Eagles double-covered their former teammate.I make plans based on what I see and make decisions on what I see, Davis said. I dont regret one minute of it.Then there were a pair of missed field goals by rookie Cody Parkey, who was 29 for 31 entering the game.It stinks, Parkey said.Eagles fans feel the same.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.organd AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow Rob Maaddi on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AP_RobMaaddi Discount Oakland Raiders Jerseys .

It came a week after Chelseas unbeaten start to the season was ended by Newcastle.Chelsea remains three points ahead of Manchester City, which won 1-0 at Leicester.Less than seven minutes were on the clock when Chelsea opened the scoring. A clumsy challenge by John Obi Mikel on Sone Aluko was missed and play continued, with the ball sprayed out wide to Oscar whose cross was nodded home by Hazard.It was a bad start which soon got worse for Hull as injury forced Steve Bruce to bring on son Alex in place of the injured Michael Dawson.Hull responded fairly strongly considering those early blows, with Jake Livermore flashing a strike wide before Aluko missed the target in a move started by Mikel being dispossessed. But Hull midfielder David Meyler was booked after a comical attempt to hook a corner back into play with a hand, bbefore Chelsea counterpart Willian was booked for taking a tumble as play became stretched.ddddddddddddEpitomizing a scrappy first half, Chelsea defender Gary Cahill was also booked after a late lunge which saw Aluko require treatment.Chelseas sloppy performance continued in the second half, with Livermore firing just wide from the edge of the box after some intricate passing.Jos Mourinhos side was creating few chances and perhaps that was behind Cahills apparent dive in the box. Hull had expected Chris Foy to hand the centre back a second booking, only to be incensed when the referee pointed for a goal kick.Hull players harangued Foy, who was soon under pressure from Chelsea after Alex Bruce smashed through Willian. Bruce was only given a booking — the same punishment dished out to Costa for diving soon after, despite having clearly been caught by Huddlestone.One decision Foy definitely got right, though, was the red card shown to Huddlestone.With an extra man, Chelsea went further in front. Hazard followed a long run by playing a lovely one-two with Branislav Ivanovic, before putting through Costa to turn home.Oscar and Cahill saw efforts blocked in quick succession, before Ivanovic fired over. Substitute Andre Schurrle twice saw efforts blocked as the clock wound down.
