    Head Coach Andy Reid Press Conference 1/14/07 Injuries/opening remarks: “Really the only injuries that we’ve got here, we’ve got a couple of them is [RG] Shawn Andrews had a contusion in his neck. He’s not sure exactly when it happened, but he had a tremendous amount of swelling there at halftime. He actually was having a tough time seeing. So, they rushed him to the emergency room and had him checked out and tried to get some of the swelling down in his neck. You saw him around today; you probably saw that he had a pretty good lump there. [LB] Shawn Barber has an ankle sprain. It happened on the last play of the first half and he was not able to return.” “I thought the effort yesterday was good. It was a heck of a game, back and forth. We give a tremendous amount of credit to [Saints head coach] Sean Payton and the Saints. They played very good football and their staff put together a nice plan, offensively, defensively, and special teams. We wish them the best down the road. They sure have a good football team, so I think they are going to do very well. On the other hand, I was proud of our football team for the way they handled the last few weeks here. They showed a lot of grit. When it wasn’t looking too good, when [QB] Donovan [McNabb] went down they were able to bounce back and take their game up a notch, coaches and players included.
