Donovan McNabb hoped to continue playing until someone scored, no matter how much delay. Mercifully, the regulations of the NFL set a time limit for parties horrendous.Eagles 13, Bengals 13. Could not have ended any other way.
McNabb dropped the ball once and underwent three interceptions in the regular time of Sunday's game, and the Bengals ruined the only chance of entering the extra time. So, was the first tie of the NFL Betting in six years.
The Kicking Cincinnati, Shayne Graham, failed a field goal attempt from 47 yards when seven seconds remaining in the extra time, falling to the ground while the ball was diverted a few centimeters to the right.
"Terrible," the field marshal of the Bengals Ryan Fitzpatrick.
Nobody was more surprised that McNabb that the game ended as soon: 3:46 hours after the kick out. The field marshal with 10 years in the league thought that the party would continue until someone scored, as if it was a duel of the postseason.
"I did not know it," said McNabb, who had a leading role for the meeting were kept tied. "I have never been part of a tie. I did not even know who was in the regulations. I was waiting anxiously to get a chance to go out and try to lead the offensive to win the match. But unfortunately, due to regulations we were left with a tie, "he added.
It was the first matched in the NFL since Nov. 10, 2002, when the Falcons and the Steelers ended up 34-34. At that time, the field marshals of Michael Vick and Tommy Maddox Tied in passes.
In this, opponents equaled in metidas foot.
