DeSean Jackson has had no one's idea of a good season. But on Sunday two plays pretty much summed up how 2011 has been going for the Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver.
The sequence started with Jackson taking a punt deep in Eagles territory and tossing a lateral across the field to Curtis Marsh, who promptly fumbled it. That gave the Miami Dolphins the ball on the 24-yard line. But Matt Moore fumbled on the next play, giving the Eagles the ball back on the 27.
Three plays later, the Eagles had moved all the way down to the Dolphins 34. That's when Michael Vick lofted a ball to Jackson in the back of the end zone. Jackson brought it down, giving the Eagles a 24-7 lead late in the second quarter.
Jackson now has three catches for 55 yards and a touchdown. That was Jackson's first touchdown since Week 5. He also has a chance to go over 100 yards for the first time since Week 4.

Brandon Marshall has quietly turned in a pretty solid season, heading into Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles with 910 yards receiving. The reason it has been quiet, though, is because he has just three touchdowns. He at least added to that total this week, catching an early 16-yard pass from Matt Moore.
It was a nice catch by a receiver who has been a bit mercurial during his NFL career. Moore lofted a fade into the far corner and Marshall was able to run under it, while keeping his feet in bounds.
As big as that catch may have been for Marshall, it was just as big for Moore, another player who has quietly put together a solid run of success recently. That was his 10th touchdown throw of the season and his ninth in the past six games. Moore may not be anyone's idea of a stud fantasy option, but he is proving to be a decent stand-in.
