Yeah, I'm biased, but I think the Eagles have a no. 1 defense in the makings. They look dominant in every aspect, line, linebackers, defensive backs, every player is making plays. The d-line was all over Palmer, with Kearse and Kalu getting great penatration off the corners. Trotter leads a much improved linebacking corps from last year, and the secondary/defensive backfield just keeps getting better, and better with great young players.
I can see this defense shutting down other teams. They're smothering, and have big play capability across the board. There is no weak spot, just pro-bowlers. It makes me laugh when I remember Mike Greenie on Mike and Mike in the morning saying that the Eagles were done when TO was holding out weeks ago, saying The Giants or Dallas will take the division. Sheeeet, they'll be lucky to score anything but a field goal against this defense.
I love JJ's defense. I love the personel and the speed and the scheme. And having said that, I don't ever see one of his defenses being #1 in the league. They'll always be good at keeping teams out of the endzone and that's all I care about, but for as long as he's been with the birds they've always given up large chunks of yardage and I can't imagine why that would suddenly change.
come on....the SKINS have the best defense. If it weren't for their offense blowing goats, they'd be RANKED #1 too!
:-*
Well, most teams are gonna' be coming from behind, so that means they'll be throwing the ball, which means that you might not see those chunks of yards 'cause most the time they come on the ground, running the ball.
Corey who???

I can't wait for those games. I just love whipping up on the Skins, it will be great seeing what D-mac and that high powered offense does to their defense.
eagles defense is very good...but their lb's leave something to be desired...their run defense will keep them from being a dominant unit
you heard it here first....skins will have a better ranked D

You're hardly the first person to say that was a distinct possibility. You might be right, but...

Which is the bottom line. People tend to forget we had our scrubs in vs. the Bungles and Rams starters the last two games of the season. Also, this Skins D is minus Pierce and Smoot who were described as 'Core Skins' ::) (by their fans) last season.

You've got a serious gambling problem.
Almost forgot,
FARG THE SKINS!!
How the farg can an Eagle fan say the Skins will be better at them in any aspect of the game? When it concerns the stinkin' taterskins, I become 10 times the homer PG is.

OK jackass, go ahead an back outta' the bet. Your exact words were directed towards me as you quoted me in your post, "YOU or ANYONE ELSE".
I figured you for as much.
Chump.
Chicken' shtein taterskin backer.
backpedal much?
or anyone else
yeah i would have bet him or anyone else five bucks
one time deal
i just saw a commercial that say "we stand behind our furniture for 6 months!"
why would anyone want to stand behind a couch for that long?
Haha. F that, man. You're only willing to put up $5 total?
Lame. You should put your money where your "innate genius" mouth is.
you in or not high roller
pg you want the lincoln on total points or not??
those are my ONLY two bets
IMO, you gave me first shot, so therefore, your chincey ass five dollar bet should be my choice of first refusal.
We don't have to bet money though, we can substitute something else, like you eating your words and aknowlegeing my great football mind, and your apparent lack of one resulting in your thinking that the Skins might actually win a game that means anything against the Eagles.
Quoteill bet you...or anyone else...5 bucks that the eagles dont sweep the skins
Id it is a one time bet, I've only seen it one time and I'll take.

first reply gets the bet...well see if money bags really wants it or not...if he weasels out then you are in it to lose it
pg is shook on the total points bet...so you can possibly have that one as well
a hot plate of words with a lager riding shotgun....mmmmmmm

Well, lets see. When the Eagles have the conf. all wrapped up at the end of the season and play their reserves for the last 2-3 games...against the opposing teams' starters, the story will change (that was the only reason the Eagles defense didn't win the #1 ranked for points allowed). So, unless you are going to not count those games, I won't go in on this.

lolololololol
told you...you aint a crook son yous a shook one
whos next??
Read my posts in the Skins thread, jerky....its been my point all along. AND last year. The Eagles ended up second in points allowed last year BARELY...because of the points allowed.
They will end up with fewer points allowed than the Skins...those last 2 games or not.
SO you're on....5 bucks. Eagles give up fewer points than the Skins.

I'll bet you 25 bucks the Eagles beat the Skins twice. Shut the farg up with all your other bullshtein and put your farging money were your sewer hole of a mouth is. Grow some goddamn balls. Hoyda.
you can have the five buck bet that ff is obviously scared of
ok then
ice vs pg total points allowed birds vs skins 5 bones
ice vs shorebird eagles dont sweep skins 5 bones
whats hoyda??
dave hoyda was a brawler for the flyers in the late 70's
Hoyda is the censored word for the first part of P...sycat.
Hoyda was the username of an old poster on here dating back to the days of the original EMB...where the founders of CF all started back in 1999. He came over here with us and disgraced us with his presence until he was finally banned.
Other screen names included Schultz and something else.
He came over here with us and disgraced us with his presence until he was finally banned
lol
If you're only going to make the "Eagles don't sweep" bet with one person, then shorebird seems to want in.
If you're willing to go up to $10, I'm in for the other $5.
yeah, this thread is going nowhere.
Wait. Did we ban Hoyda or did he leave on his own? I forget.
