The 2012 Philadelphia Eagles season was the 80th season for the team in the National

 Football League (NFL), who looked to improve on their record from 2011.

 For head coach Andy Reid, this will be his 14th season as the coach of the Eagles.

 The Eagles played all of their home games at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

 

We are in Philadelphia Eagles Country!

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Eli Manning threw a career-high five touchdown passes and the New York Giants kept their slim playoff hopes alive with a 42-7 win over Philadelphia on Sunday in what might have been Andy Reid's final game as the Eagles' coach.

The Giants (9-7) were eliminated from postseason contention shortly after beating the Eagles when the Chicago Bears defeated the Detroit Lions. The Giants needed to beat the Eagles (4-12), have Chicago and Minnesota lose and have the Dallas Cowboys either lose or tie against the Washington Redskins to advance to the postseason. 

The defending Super Bowl champions did their part against Michael Vick and their NFC East rivals. The Giants put themselves in a tough spot to reach the playoffs, losing five of seven prior to Sunday, including two games by a combined 67-14 margin to playoff-bound Atlanta and Baltimore.
