The\u00a0Philadelphia Eagles<\/a>\u00a0failed Scott Van Pelt so badly last night.<\/p>\n The Eagles blew it in their Monday night matchup with the\u00a0Atlanta Falcons<\/a>.<\/p>\n Scott Van Pelt has been around long enough to know that a game is never over until the clock hits all zeros.<\/p>\n The Philadelphia Eagles led the visiting Atlanta Falcons 18-15 with 1:51 left, and were on the cusp of possibly scoring a touchdown as the offense was on the Falcons\u2019 10-yard line.<\/p>\n If not a touchdown, then a first down would end the game, and the Philadelphia Eagles would be undefeated.<\/p>\n Around that time, Van Pelt stood on the field during the two-minute timeout and did a promo for ESPN\u2019s post-game coverage, and promptly predicted that the Eagles would win.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re going to visit with Joe (Buck) and Troy (Aikman), show you the key moments in this game, and take you inside the winning locker room, which appears it will be the home team,\u201d Van Pelt said. \u201cWe\u2019ll see you when this one is done.\u201d<\/p>\n The Eagles kicked a field goal from Atlanta\u2019s 10-yard line to take a 21\u201315 lead with 1:39 remaining in the game after running back\u00a0Saquon Barkley<\/a>\u00a0failed to secure a pass that would\u2019ve ended the game.<\/p>\n Van Pelt\u2019s prediction aged like ice cream in the sun as the Falcons marched 70 yards on the Philadelphia Eagles defense to score a touchdown and take a 22-21 lead.<\/p>\n
