That changed as quickly as the second half started. They scored 30 points in the second half. The cowboys put nothing on the board for the second half. This 379 victory puts the eagles in even better position to clench the division with just six games to go. They have the fourgame lead in the nfc east and the best record of any team now in the nfl. Fans at home gathered at xfinity live and other viewing stops to watch the team be triumphant. And their cheers could almost be heard in texas. Eagles [ cheers ] were the birds. Were going all the way. Were going to the playoffs. Well clinch it in a couple of weeks, and thats it. Thats it. You heard it there. We have a crew at the airport waiting for the team to return in the next hour or so. Their next game is home against the Chicago Bears set for sunday. More on

And governor of indiana mike pence. They will give 7 million in tax breaks to United Technologies, the Parent Company of carrier, and it covered 800 workers at this stilt. They were going to move 1400 workers over to mexico, so that means they still plan to move 600 jobs to mexico and will also continue with their plans to close a second manufacturing facility in near by huntington, indiana.
