WR Desean Jackson
On his thoughts about the game today: "It's very frustrating. We came out and went on top 10-0 and then we weren't able to come back out and get productive plays that we needed to do to win the football game."
On why he thinks the team struggles playing at home: "I don't know, but the results are not the same. I wish I could stand here and tell you, but it's just really frustrating. We just have to figure it out."
On dropping two would-be touchdowns: "Yeah, things happen sometimes. As a player, I am upset about it. It wasn't one of my best games. As far as a couple of plays, I thought I could have had them, but at the end of the day, I didn't come up with them. I have to move on and make better plays. I know I am a better receiver, there are no excuses behind that, but I just didn't have my best game today. It's frustrating, but I have to figure it out."
On the challenges of preparing on a short week: "We just have to put it behind us as a team. I think that everybody on this team can say that there were things that happened and we have to get better, but we have to get it turned around very fast. We are going to Seattle on Wednesday to play Thursday; we just have to get it together. Myself, I just have to pick it up, help this team and do what I am capable of doing."
On why he wasn't playing at the end of the game: "I don't know. It was a decision that was made. As a player, I just have to live with it, it happened, and I have to keep coming to work, give my best effort and play hard. Come next week, I am going to make those plays"
On his relationship with head coach Andy Reid: "We have a good relationship."
On whether he thinks the coaches were displeased with his play in the first half: "I don't know. We are all human at the end of the day. We are all human. As a professional, I have to bounce back. Week to week it's always different. This week we are talking about this and next week we might be talking about something else. It's up to me to go out there and, as a team, the Philadelphia Eagles; we have to do what we need to do to win games."
On whether it bothers him that because of his contract situation, whatever he does, it becomes magnified: "I am not going to say it's unfortunate. Being the player, with the contract situation, being under the microscope, it's not my decision, I just have to go out there and do my job. I have a job to do, which I get paid to do, I have to go out there and give my best effort. Regardless of what happens, the dropped balls and all, it's not like it's happening on purpose. Everybody has things that they have to go through in life, right now this is what I am going through to better myself. I will be alright."

On how the team approaches the remainder of the season: "Well, we have five games left. Obviously we are ready and in a mode where we're trying to win out. That doesn't change. We just have to keep at it."
On whether the Patriots did anything up front that the team did not expect: "No, not really. [Offensive line coach] Howard [Mudd] has been preparing us all week, we knew that they were going to come in with a wrinkle that was a little bit different and they started hitting that a little bit more in the fourth quarter when we were in passing situations. We had to start coming back and they started doing some things to try and confuse us. I think we handled it well, though, up front. I thought we were on the same page for the most part."
On whether it surprised him that Eagles RB LeSean McCoy only had 10 carries today: "I think everybody was expecting him to get more carries coming into the game. You get down a little bit early, and then you have to start airing it out more just so you can save some of the time on the clock and make some big plays. I think that probably hindered him a little bit and hindered the carries that he was able to get."
On whether the offense moves more smoothly when there is a mixture of McCoy: "Yeah, I think any offense moves more smoothly when there's a balance. But like I said earlier, I think we started running the ball in the first quarter. I think we were doing a good job against the run plays, but once we got down, you have to air it out more. Again, it's skewed a lot of the time, and I've said this before about run versus pass. When you're down, you just pass the ball more."
WR Riley Cooper
On whether this season is weighing on him: "Yeah, it certainly weighs on you, but that is what separates the good from the great, is being able to put that behind you and move forward."
On what turned the tide after a fast start from the offense: "I have no idea. I really don't know. We were not executing. I think the game plan was good. It's up to the players. We have to execute. If the ball is thrown to you, you have to catch it. The offensive line has to block and the defense has to play. It's a team game."
On whether the Patriots put added pressure on the offense by consistently scoring: "It didn't put added pressure on us. We just didn't execute. We don't worry about them. Our job on offense is to go out there, make plays and score. I think we could have done better."
On what the Patriots did to slow him down after a fast start: "They were mixing it up a bit, but nothing we were not expecting. Sometimes they played bump, off, two-man and cover-six. They did basic things."
RB LeSean McCoy
On how disheartening a loss this is: "It's heart breaking. I thought we really had a chance to beat them. Early in the game we were moving the ball. It's hard to talk about. Their defense did a good job on us and their offense they made plays."
On how discouraging it is to look at the playoff situation: "Things can happen. We just have to be positive and hope for the best. All we can do is win next week and beat Seattle."
On preparing for Seattle with a short week: "Like you said, we have a game on Thursday night. We need to win that game. We need to put it behind us. We will watch tape and move past it. We know we need to win all of our games just to have a chance for the playoffs."
