Why to watch
Miami really should be on a five-game winning streak right now, letting one slip away on Thanksgiving Day. Michael Vick returns for the Eagles with their playoff hopes lost, but jobs possibly on the line for the floundering team.

Inside story
Reggie Bush has been very effective in the second half of the season, and getting Philly's linebackers in coverage has been a common mode of attack against them. Former Dolphins running back Ronnie Brown could see some work against his old team. Matt Moore is shining for the Dolphins, but Jason Babin and Cullen Jenkins have been very disruptive lately, and the team might as well gamble with blitzes at this point.
