EAST RUTHERFORD Ugo Amadi Jersey , N.J. (AP) — game against the New York Jets on Saturday night with an ankle injury and was questionable to return.Miller was injured early in the first quarter Saturday when he went down after a 1-yard run. He tried to get up and walk it off before going back down to the turf and being attended to by trainers.Miller was able to walk to sideline on his own and returned to the game on Houston’s next possession. But he left the game again early in the second quarter and headed to the locker room with trainers. He remained on the sideline at the start of the second half.Miller had 8 yards on three carries against the Jets. He leads the Texans with 917 yards rushing this season.Jets starting right tackle Brandon Shell was carted off the field early in the third quarter with a knee injury. He was blocking during a passing play when left guard Spencer Long rolled into his left leg.Shell immediately grabbed at his left knee as trainers ran onto the field to check on him. After a few moments, Shell was helped on a cart as most of his Jets teammates and several Texans players came over to him for pats on the back.The Jets announced Shell was doubtful to return. He was replaced by Brent Qvale.Texans nose tackle Brandon Dunn also left with an ankle injury and was questionable to return. Jets wide receiver Rishard Matthews was doubtful to come back after injuring a hamstring. PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The best thing that happened for the Philadelphia Eagles over the weekend took place in a different game between two other teams.After Kirk Cousins torched Philadelphia’s depleted secondary and the Minnesota Vikings rolled to a 38-20 victory Sunday, the New York Jets knocked off the Dallas Cowboys.That sets up a first-place showdown between the Eagles (3-3) and the reeling Cowboys (3-3) in Dallas on Sunday Night Football.Eagles coach Doug Pederson confidently declared in his weekly radio interview Monday morning that his team was going to win the game. He later declined to call it a guarantee.“Never said guarantee a win. I’d never do that Devin White Jersey ,” he said at his news conference.Pederson also said he has no regrets about saying it.“No, because again, that shows confidence in our football team and I promise you (Cowboys coach) Jason Garrett is going to say the same thing with his team that they are going to win the football game L.J. Collier Jersey , as well,” Pederson said. “I’m not going to stand up here and go on record and say: ‘We’re going to go down there and try to win a game. Man, hopefully we can go win this one.’ It just doesn’t show confidence and I want to show confidence in our players. We have a ton of confidence in them. We are going to put a good week of preparation in and go play.”WHAT’S WORKINGThrowing the ball to rookie running back Miles Sanders has been the only way for the offense to get big gains since wide receiver DeSean Jackson was injured in Week 2. Sanders had a 32-yard TD catch and a 45-yard reception that set up a score against Minnesota. He already has five catches of 30-plus yards and is third on the team with 219 yards receiving.WHAT NEEDS HELPThe secondary is struggling. Rasul Douglas was beat by Stefon Diggs on touchdown passes of 62 and 51 yards. Diggs blew past Douglas on one and safety Malcolm Jenkins blew his assignment to help on the other. Sidney Jones had costly penalties and poor coverage. The Eagles are missing starters Ronald Darby Johnathan Abram Jersey , Jalen Mills and Avonte Maddox and key backup Cre’Von LeBlanc. Darby and Mills might return this week, though Mills hasn’t played since last October.STOCK UPRookie left tackle Andre Dillard played 72% of the snaps after Jason Peters was injured and had some ups and downs against three-time Pro Bowl end Everson Griffen.STOCK DOWNWide receiver Mack Hollins has played 109 snaps over the past three games and has only one catch on five targets. He dropped what should’ve been a 21-yard TD pass in the second quarter against the Vikings. Kicker Jake Elliott threw an interception on a fake field goal on the next play.INJUREDPeters (knee) and linebacker Nigel Bradham (ankle) left the game in Minnesota and Pederson said both are getting second opinions on their injuries. Pederson added both are day-to-day.KEY NUMBER4 — The Eagles only had four hits on Cousins and one sack, giving him plenty of time to sit back and pick apart the undermanned secondary. Getting pressure on the quarterback has been a problem for the defense all season — except for 10 sacks against the Jets and Luke Falk last week. They have four sacks in the five other games.NEXT STEPSThe Eagles visit Dallas. The Cowboys swept the series last year and have won nine of 14.
