Well, it's time: E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES! - Page 3

Well, fair enough guys. I think Detroit is probably better than 6 wins. I agree their defense is bad, but 56 points bad? Anyway...

I do think this secures McNabb's job....that and the fact that Kolb was a bag of shit on the few plays he was in there. He's got to feel good. Hopefully he's got is confidence back...it seems like it.

There might be something there, though the other way around. I think it's possible that the Eagles could see each other better (mainly, McNabb) because they didn't blend into the field anymore. Thoughts?

Looks like he's still a game time "questionable" decision. My money is on him playing. They have a bye week next week, and it's the Giants. A win would be big for them.

Eagles 24, Giants 14.

Well, it was an anal shanking, that's true. The line was truly pathetic. Justice got bitch slapped all night, and Reid did nothing to fix it. They refuses to use the weapons they have, Tony Hunt and Buck, both of who in tandem could at least compensate for Westbrook being out, even if they couldn't replace him.

As you guys know, I get very critical of McNabb, but in this case, it's not his fault. He had nowhere to go. Even the old McNabb couldn't have escaped a lot of those situations.

At this point my feeling is it's time for Andy to go. The list of mistakes and ineptness has just grown too long. We've had:

1. Embarrassing Linc Field Opener in 2003, Eagles unprepared, flat emotionally. Andy Reid takes responsibility, and rightly so.

2. Losing three straight NFC championships, much of it due to poor game planning.

3. Poor managerial decisions such as going hell bent on Jeremy Bloom despite nearly unanimous condemnation of the decsision.

4. Clock management in the Super Bowl.

5. No ability to make adjustments mid-game, as demonstrated last night.

6. Failure to motivate the team in general. My perception is that if the team is fired up, it's the players that cause it to be so. Andy Reid needs to show some emotion...tee off on the guy that made an amateur mistake, get visibly excited about a great play, etc.

7. Failure to explain decisions adequately in press conferences. "Well be fine there" and "we have things to work on" are not acceptable answers, Andy.


Don't get me wrong, again. I like the guy. He's done a lot for the team and for the City. He's a genuinely nice person, and has a great knowledge of the game. But things like this drive me crazy:


I understand that thinking, but where is the recognition that this is NOT acceptable, and that you WILL fix it and come out and kick ass after the bye? I don't want "ho-hum" we'll be OK and we're not really happy but we'll be fine there." That's not the "Philly guy" thing to say.

That would be surprising. But who replaces him?

Well the rumor has been denied. Maybe Donovan can be the coach. He thinks he is already.

I honestly cannot believe what I just witnessed. The Eagles led the entire game. They didn't let the Bears into the end zone the whole game. They moved the ball at will, despite having some trouble in the red zone again.

Then they allowed the Bears to march 97 yards in 11 plays and 1:49 to score a touchdown. Oh, and they didn't even try the Hail Mary at the end.

The loss was pathetic and unacceptable. Fucking pathetic.

I am at a loss concerning the Eagles. There is just no excuse for what happened. All they needed to do was make a stop or two. Instead, they thought they could run the clock. They allowed the Bears to control the pace. They should have called time out to stop their momentum.

As for NE, they are scary good. Brady is playing like Joe Montana...probably better. One wonders if they really can go undefeated. Oh, and I hate them. Gotta make sure I mention that.

I think it might be. Of course, my personal reasons are that Eli is a fag and Shockey is a douche bag.

But I digress. So let's talk about Sunday. It was a fairly decent win. That said, I was really concerned with the number of penalties. FOUR offsides penalties? That's got to be a some kind of record. One might see an off sides penalty once every three games or so per team....but four in a game? There were others too.

I thought McNabb looked better except for a few throws. He's definitely getting more mobile each week. They came back nicely from the 7-0 deficit too. Also, I liked that they called time out at the end of the game to regroup on offense even though they were fighting the clock. It allowed them to at least make sure they had the right package in there.

I'm going to the Dallas game next week. That is a huge game. If they can win, the season may just be getting started. If they lose, it's pretty much over!

I will pay real $ to see Brady and Bellicheat lose. And I hope the Colts first knock Brady out the game (some sort of not too severe head injury...but enough to have him not be able to wear that faggoty hat of his for a while), then run up the score.



Please.

Well, I'm going Sunday. I will be there at like 10 a.m. for the night game. Any chance the Eagles win? I don't know. I hope so. I think it's possible, but thet cannt make the kind of mistakes they have made before. We'll see. In the meantime I plan to be well lubricated, so I won't care.

I like the niners too. I still think the Eagles hate them WAY more. It is like the Super Bowl when they come here, no matter how much we suck. Last year they were burning T.O. in effigy. It was funny because before the game (I didn't go), I thought "what is the most ridiculous thing they could do...like something that would never, ever happen." The answer? "They could burn T.O. in effigy." Lo and behold, I turn on the TV and the news is on, covering the tailgate. And sumbitch....I see a straw man T.O. on a stick, going up in flames. Jesus.
