By Hayden Kane
The Philadelphia Eagles entered the second half of their game against the Indianapolis Colts on Monday night needing yet another comeback. In their week 1 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, they were able to pull that off. To do so against the Colts looked to be a more difficult task.

If there is one offense in the NFL that is equipped to put points on the board in a hurry, it is the Eagles under the watch of Chip Kelly. They can beat opposing defenses on the ground and through the air.
The Eagles struggled throwing the ball for much of this game, thanks mostly to the fact that quarterback Nick Foles was missing a lot of throws. The running game got rolling, however, with both LeSean McCoy and Darren Sproles picking up big gains on the ground.
Down in the red zone, McCoy forced his way in for a short touchdown to make it a one-score game, 20-13.
