The win over Tampa in 2012 felt like 1973 vs St Louis

Nick Foles did a great job and showed real poise. The last drive like that was nearly 40 years ago in 1973. The Philadelphia Eagles were trailing the Cardinals at St. Louis 24 to 13 with just under three mintues left to play. Roman Gabriel threw a 58 yard pass to Harold Carmichael who dodged a tackle on the way to the End Zone. The Eagles got the ball back and Gabriel threw a 22 yard pass to Don Zimmerman on the final play to win 27 to 24. It was first win for Eagle Coach Mike McCormick and the Eagles would not defeat the Cardinals for five years.
