That was very clearly a catch and a fumble that no one bothered to recover, so shouldn't it be a dead ball at the Eagles' 4 yard line?

It's like it was fumbled out of bounds. Play was ruled dead, so should have gone to where the fumble happened.

So uh, replay has been very suspect so far this playoffs. If the Eagles had any fundamentals they could've saved themselves by jumping on the ball. I mean sheesh, that's something you're taught in pop warner!

Yeah the QB play this weekend was/is very unimpressive

I think it's a little bit of bad QB play and great defense.

Sometimes these things tend to even out. I expect better flow next week.

@SeifertESPN
From the NFL rule book: "If there is no video evidence of a clear recovery or the ball going out of bounds,the ruling of incomplete stands."

Bad penalties by Chicago this drive. Basically moved the Eagles into the red zone.

And now they’re down.

It always blows my mind when I see a DB holding on to the arm
of a WR. What are they thinking?
