* K Cody Parkey has connected on his last 15 field goal attempts, tying for the fifth-longest streak in team history … DE Brandon Bair blocked an extra point, his second blocked kick of the year … LB Bryan Braman blocked a punt, the third blocked punt of the season for the Eagles … DE Vinny Curry picked up a sack and has six over the last seven games … The Eagles snapped a streak of 22 consecutive contests with at least one takeaway, which was the longest in the NFL and the team’s longest since 1995 … LB Trent Cole played in his 150th game.
