Line opened with the Eagles being favored by 2.5 and the total is 55
Saturday night at The Linc...so they have the short week, but we knew that.
The hype this week is going to be the Saints being zesty on the road. Its going to be played up huge this week ala Tampa and the under 40 degree stuff from a decade ago.
The OL MUST block better because the Saints get after the passer really good. The DL also must be much better. The fact that they have tall DL will help as long as they can push the pocket around Brees.
Let's go.

i will enjoy attending this sporting event on saturday
have the gates opened yet ?
Anyone have extras?
They need to stick Cary Williams on Graham. He's a veteran with size and should be able to somewhat contain Graham. The key is the pass rush on Brees. The pr was non existent last night and they have zero shot at beating the Saints if they play like they did last night.
if the wolffman is back id look at nate allen on graham....i think his length would serve well there....problem comes when graham makes the catch and has to be tackled
I have to think Wolfffffff is back Saturday. Well i hope he is because seeing Chung out there will eventually kill me.

Dude knows his history
anyone know when these tickets are supposed to hit our cards? i already pre-registered or whatever last week but don't see any charges on my account.
I'm surprised they didn't charge you in the beginning of the year in case they hosted all the playoff games and will refund the difference if they didn't in March.
mine is still pending.
also, heard they re-scheduled the 7pm DOI show. i'll be at the gates when they open.
Who is this DOI and why aren't I getting royalties? Dislexics everywhere are probably going to that show expecting to see me.

the eagles are the only team ive heard of that doesnt charge your card until a home playoff game is guaranteed.....pretty awesome actually
i know the ravens charged for two playoff games a couple weeks ago and they didnt even make it
Haha - how the hell does DIO know about the soccer moms at DOI?
Seriously though, what is DOI? A boy band?
I know about soccer moms because every soccer mom who sees me thinks to herself, "harder than my husband."

Oh.
Yes, some yummy mummies there, no doubt.
My cousin went on the eagles site for the season ticket holder pre-sale and there is nothing available. they refer you to the ticket exchange where upper level tickets are like $200 each minimum
7pm DOI was cancelled, but the 11am and 3pm are still on. parking lot is going to be shtein show http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2013/12/30/comcast-spectacor-cancels-disney-on-ice-performance-to-ease-congestion-for-eagles-playoff-game/
one bad thing about not having to pay early is you get tickets early....and cause of that you dont get real tickets....you must print them out.....im so salty about this because i have a massive collection of ticket stubs
I transferred my tickets this morning to my buddy via E-Mail. It took a couple of attempts to get them to actually transfer but it was easy enough if anyone chooses to go that way.

So, um, when do the Saints plan on arriving in the city? I know the snow will not affect the game Saturday night but tomorrow is the typical day before travel day...and thousands of flights have been canceled.
For a team that sucks on the road now may have to deal with not getting in until a late hour?
As long as Joe Jurevicius isn't on that flight.
It's a charter flight anyway. It's not like they're piling on a Southwest red eye.

sal pal reporting they will be arriving at their normally scheduled time of 6pm
pierre thomas out for tomorrow
mark schlereths wild card weekend bold prediction is that darren sproles will have more total yardage in the game than shady
If you're Billy Davis who do you focus on more...Sproles or Graham?
I'd look to stop Graham more. I'd like to see Barwin line up over him at the LOS to jam him and then pass him off to Williams...sort of like the bracketing that NE did on him.
Sproles is gonna get his because who can cover him? They're going to look to match him up on Cole or Ryans...maybe Kendricks can run with him a bit but I doubt it
Mark Ingram and Sproles seem to have had less than average years. I don't remember seeing any of them on any highlights and most highlights came through the air.
There are lots of veterans on that team. The key is going to be getting pressure on Brees...something this defense isn't known for. But even more key will be keeping Brees off the field, something our offense can do if they wanted.
Yeah I don't worry about their rushing attack...Shady has more yards that their entire team....but Sproles on wheel routes and dump offs is dangerous.
just keep jimmy graham out of the end zone...i dont care if he goes 8/115 or whatever...in the red zone is where he kills you
I am so fired up for tomorrow...I am thankful this was a slow work week because I wasn't focused on anything but Saturday night. Went to my Friday meeting with my biggest customer and then farged off the rest of the day
21yrs ago today the Eagles beat the Saints in the Superdome 36-20...RICH KOTITE, bitch!
BTW - the New Orleans paper was trying to organize a run up the steps at the AM for Saints fans in Philly. They canceled it but I was hoping it would happen and they'd all slip on ice and break their farging faces
Some genius suggested Eagles fans fill pillow cases with doorknobs and head on down to the Art Museum.
Dio?
How good is Pierre Thomas at blocking?
so my body literally shut down for the last two days from alcoholic damage so i put them on stubhub this morning...but then i drank some booze tonight and realized it would be dumb to miss this game.
so i may have one extra if anyone is interested.
i need to not not live in philly
I hope everything goes well for you tonight, CF. They're without Thomas and aren't the greatest road team plus they'll be playing in some chilly conditions. I believe the keys are to run Shady, keep Foles mobile, stop Graham, Colston and Sproles.

I don't know what you guys have experienced, but a lot of neutral fans I know have liked the Eagles all year. People like Kelly and enjoy the offensive fireworks, and are generally pulling for them in the playoffs. It also doesn't hurt that they eliminated the Cowboys, and no one likes the Cowboys. Not sure how much that rubs off on the NFL media.
Most people I run across down here are swayed because of an allegiance to the Cowboys or Saints. There is a heavy Who Dat contingent in Houston. So for the last two weeks its been a heavy anti-Eagle sentiment around me.
I enjoy when the Eagles win because then I can pull my overly smug Ruben Amaro Jr impression off.

Agree, one play doesn't prove or disprove a point. And good point about a FB/H back - it would make McCoy follow a blocker rather than dance until a hole closes. He needs to mix it up by hitting the hole fast, alternating with being patient sometime and can be his own change of pace back if they aren't going to put anyone else in there.
Akers lives. Fag.

That's how you throw a pass away Foles.
Collinsworth starts talking about Sproles and they play the Colston package. Great producing.
They need to get some points off this turnover. The Saints probably won't keep shooting themselves in the foot.
shtein....I think he was down.
To close, that's a fumble. farg you Al, we know it gets reviewed ahole
Similar to the shady fumble vs the Bears. Hope we get some home field lovin.
Al on our side?
A few weeks ago they used an Alkaline Trio song to go out to commercial, and just now used a Taking Back Sunday song.
He never got that ball to the first down marker anyway
I can't take this corksucker Colinsworth anymore.
Not close at all, he was down.
This is taking too long.
farg me and farg you.
Welp, I guess they'll pick up this first down, too.
This is the game of coaches who don't want to kick field goals ever
Just draw Cox off.
I think Collingsworth has it right, prob a fumble but so close don't over ref and overturn
Thank you, Ben Watson.
Nobody would have wasted a time out on that turnover, not sure if I like the automatic review.

Brees is more off than on - need to capitalize on that
About time!

I'll take a one point lead at halftime. That's way better than I thought it would be.

The gut punch is usually felt on this side of the screen during Eagle playoff games.
I'm pretty sure Foles was beyond the line of scrimmage on that pass. Nevermind, he'll just farg it up on the next play to make sure he gets flagged.
So far, McCoy very Barry Sandersesque
Good blocking o line
You guys didn't tell me Desean was killed on the way to the game!
That was a Pop Warner swim move on Lane Johnson.
Was that Foles' 4th or 5th int grounding or should be int gr penalty in the last 2 games?
For a second I thought they were gonna let that hold go without a call
This is where Payton out coaches Mr. Gimmick.
awful coverage
Just when you think the touchdown celebrations can't get any lamer...
I knew this cold weather thing would favor the birds.
farg. the momentum has been in NO favor because eagles haven't been able to to take advantage of opportunities with turnovers
This is it...eagles either step up and tak over this game or hello offseason.
Foles better get his shtein together real quick.
Cue in QB's gut-punch.

Surely losing their least terrible corner on a critical 3rd down won't hurt them at all.
Carmichael, yikes

Boykin was just two feet two short to get them back in this game.
Poof
How the farg do you let Ben farging Watson get that wide open
Hey, I've got this cool idea - how about stop them on 3rd down? Neat!
Ingram just plowing his way up the sideline is a god damn joke.
Good tackling guys
It has been an interesting season. Bring on the draft!
This defense is as bad as we thought it was. This is so over.
Offense, time to shtein or get off the pot.
So, they should draft around 22? HaHa, probably little to late to get the top safety.
farging awful
I hope cooper plans on making it up for that killer drop

So the NFC East was that bad.

The booing at injuries thing is getting pretty old, Eagle fans. They aren't taking their best DB out of the game to slow down an offense that isn't doing shtein.
Ha, Lewis was trying to walk back into the game
NICE!
Take that, concussed guy!
OMG. :o

Come on, defense. Pick off a pass and take it in. I have faith in you for no reason!
3rd down stop? No wai!
Nice farging return!
Nice stop, now drive for another TD.
I thought Brad Smith was back for that punt. He and Jackson need to stop dressing alike so I'll stop confusing them.

One Andy choke a day is enough.
Graham is a bigtime journeyman who has played for half the teams in the league and always gets cut due to sucking. No chance of him missing a FG in this game whatsoever.
Please keep feeding McCoy.
Celek's hurt? Time for the Scorched Ertz campaign!
YES throw that flag!
Blatent interference there....Jackson catches that and probably falls forward into the endzone if he doesn't do it though.
And now the short yardage offense gets to suck
Shovel passes even uglier than their screens. This offense has everything.
Are you scared Foles? Walk that in!
The good thing is that they're on the 1 yd line. The bad news is that they'll probably score, leave too much time on the clock and lose on a FG.

Easy answer is to just give up a one play TD drive to leave them enough time to score again.
Only problem with the penalty is lots of time left on the clock.
To many holes in this Saints defense? Cris you have been watching the birds defense haven't you?
I would be really aggressive against Brees here. If they score so be it, get the ball back with 2 or 3 minutes. But don't just allow a 4 minute drive motherfargers.

I was more worried about that when they were slowly moving. The big play solved that. If the Eagles don't get the ball back now, it's due to defensive collapse. Nothing they can do about that.
Nice horse collar
That horsecollar tackle definitely saved a touchdown. Shame the legs are still whole, though.

And now the Saints just chew up clock at their leisure.
How do you let that little midget UDFA run like that on you...christ

they knew what was coming and couldn't stop it against a mediocre running team and a 3rd string running back. DLine got no pressure all game and was getting blown off the ball in run defense.

Nail in the coffin yes, but the critical plays were much earlier - not getting points off a turnover, Foles taking a horrible sack taking them out of FG range, Coopers drop on 3rd down, not stopping the saints on a 3rd down etc. The plays that lost the game didn't happen near the end imo.
Honestly, it's alright. We knew this defense wasn't very good and we knew they weren't going to win the Super Bowl. The season annihilated all expectations and I couldn't have drawn it up much better. Howie, start finding some nasty motherfargers for this defense.
For the rest of this season I just hope the fraud Packers get eliminated so the NFC can send a worthy team to the SB.

It turns out none of those things are a defense or special teams. Except Jackson, who is in fact special teams and did a good job there. So none of those things are a defense or the other parts of special teams.
We can sit here and pick apart the team, or we can just acknowledge they overperformed this season. Sure, it's a bummer they lost and yeah I want a Superbowl as bad as the next fan, but there's not enough talent to make that happen this season. They desperately need another playmaking WR, DE who can collapse a pocket, and DB not named Chung. If you asked me prior to the start of the season would I call 10-6, winning the East, and a first round loss a success, I'd of said hell yeah. Pretty sure my ceiling prediction was in the 8 win range and thought they'd only win 6.
It was great to go 4-12 to 10-6.
Chip proved he is not overmatched and that he can be a legit HC. They have another off-season to fix the holes and then come back and dominate next year.

Pretty much all that needs to be said about this season. Sure it sucks that they lost but NO ONE thought the Eagles would sniff the playoffs much less the Superbowl. Anyone that says they would/could win it all this year is either flat out lying or a complete farging idiot.
This team did more than anyone could have hoped given the extreme lack of talent on the Defense. And given how the season started off - with their zesty defense that everyone knew was bad from the start - why anyone is crying about them getting bumped from the playoffs is mindboggling. I guess it helps that I'm not a fan of Philly sports in general, just the Eagles, but some of you guys need to get a farging grip.
imo thats a cop out in todays nfl....you make the playoffs the expectation should be making the superbowl...theres only three teams in the playoffs who are clearly better than the eagles....denver seattle san fran...and with the draw they had (new orleans, carolina) you were only guaranteed to have to play one of them to win the superbowl
theres no reason they shouldnt have won last night and theres no reason they couldnt go to carolina and win...then maybe you get san fran at home...you never know...but i farging would have loved to find out...and im sitting here salty as farg that they didnt even won game towards that end...im certainly not sitting here saying im so proud of you guys well get em next year...because theres just as much chance they go 5-11 next year as 11-5
luckily it was a very small group a few hundred people but they were at the eagles tunnel after the game last night cheering the team as they came off the field....it made me sick....you were favored at home in the playoffs
I'm 100% in agreement with this and it's why it pisses me off. This with the fact that whenever another team has never won, or can't do this or that, or stats point to them losing, when they play Philly, they win. I knew this was going to farging happen. They should have won. No reason they couldn't have. farging cursed farging team.
Then enjoy being miserable I guess. They didn't win because the defense is not good enough. It's the exact thing that people have been saying ALL YEAR about this team and now you guys are shocked, surprised and angry that they lost because the defense couldn't stop the Saints when it mattered? Eh, whatever...
Only one team is going to win it every year and if anyone was delusional enough to think that this team, this year, was going to be the one to win it then I have nothing to say to you but, "suck it up, buttercup". They lost, get over it.
Buttercup? Now you're just flirting.
its wasnt the defense...well it was on the last drive but it never should have come to that....because overall the offense was the bigger problem...one of the reasons new orleans was able to run the ball like they did is because the eagle offense allowed them too...the defense gave up 6 pts in the first half...if the offense puts up 17 like they should have the saints come out throwin and playing catch up
i mean the eagles couldnt even throw for 200 yards...thats pathetic in todays league and is like not throwing for 100 yards 15 years ago
24 pts allowed to drew brees isnt terrible....jimmy graham was basically taken out of the game and they forced two turnovers...not sure how much more you want from them
but the offense passed for under 200 and rushed for 80....thats unacceptable

Foles made some bad decisions, the offensive line didn't block great, Cooper dropped an easy pass, Henery missed a kick everyone knew he was going to miss and couldn't get his kickoffs in the endzone, the kickoff team totally forgot what they were doing on their last kickoff, the defense couldn't stop the run when they knew it was coming, and Chip called some dumb plays sometimes.

nfl games are 60 minutes long
honestly you can say they lost as a team...no one player or part of the team you can blame it in
in a perfect world youd like to score more than 24 points at home in a playoff game....and youd like to hold a lead with 5 minutes to go at home in a playoff game....and not give up a back breaking kick return and stupid penalty
they lost its over move on

I was looking at that yesterday and it seems like the dude who took the loogie, who is a college football player, was in it for the publicity.
I was looking at his timeline and he was pimping that video to every news outlet.
Maybe someone will Dennis Byrd his ass
supposedly theres also a video of him fighting the guy in the parking lot but i havent seen it pop up yet
Probably hasn't come up because he got his ass beat and/or didn't get a favorable result. If he woulda whipped him then you know it would be making its rounds
on twitter he claimed that he got "3 or 4 good shots in" which i'm sure is a lie
Probably...thats a classic brush off answer.
Maybe he will travel to SF if they both win and then get stabbed...video that one, bitch!
Oh well, there is always next year. At least Andy Reid and his clock and game management skills is gone.
diddy was on WIP earlier and echoed a few others this week who said that Jackson wasn't shut down in the 1st half like NBC was suggesting. i said the same thing because I was there and was watching him, but he beat his coverage a few times and either Foles wasn't looking or took too long to make his decision. shame because people of course jumped all over that when desean said what he said monday.
There was a moment on the broadcast where you could see him running free with his arm up and obviously didn't get the ball.

i think you are talking about the first off. series of the game.....foles roled out and celek broke wide farging open...it wasnt really straight up the seam more a soft fade towards the sideline but either way he was completely naked and foles totally missed him and threw a one yard pass to avant instead...i was beside myself for like the next two series
foles specifically and the offense in general just werent very good in the first half....and thats where the game was lost
fortunately these kinds of things can be corrected....his physical tools are what they are but in theory he should improve his reading of the plays and decision making
Yeah that might've been it. I just remember them mentioning it and then on reply there's Brent The Hipster wide open.
I believe that Foles has shown enough of a foundation that he can build on.

This post makes me laugh. I don't know how you can reconcile feeling like this team could have gone to the super bowl with the idea that 5-11 and 11-5 are equally likely next year.
because the playoffs one year in the nfl dont have a lot to do with the regular season in the next year
each year is completely different in the era of parity....id say every year about half the league has an equal chance to win 6 or 10 games
also thats my feeling on the eagles right now....lets wait for the offseason to see what they and the division do in march april and may
