Someone here has to have this photo saved on their computer. It was too classic to just let it go.
Back in 2004, when the Eagles whupped up on Green Bay (12/5/04), Green Bay finally scored a touchdown in the 4th quarter (I think it was William Henderson). He spiked the ball like he just won the Super Bowl. One of the defenders (can't remember who), ran up to him and got in his face, and pointed at the score board. I'm pretty sure he was laughing, too.
Any one? Bueller? Little help?
While looking for this on the innerwebs, I came across this quote from that very same game:
"I just thank God for Donovan. It's special. I can't put into words what he means to me,'' Owens said.
:puke
The WR's are fine.
Could have been Lito or Shep. For some reason, that sounds familiar.
I was at that game and I remember that. I don't recall who it was. But I do remember that Nick Barnett made a tackle with a few minutes to go and did some kind of dance, perhaps he even mimicked the ax chop and the people left at LFF broke out into a hearty assssssssssssssshole chant.
I believe it was Mike Lewis or Ike Reese.
Michael Lewis sounds alot better.
I don't know why, but I keep seeing Matt Ware.
Stop staring at his football card.
It was hilarious. That was a great day to be an Eagles fan...
Still looking for the picture... anyone?
I think it was someone in the secondary, i remember exactly that moment. I want to say it was Rod Hood, Mikell or was Clinton Hart on the team that year? I'm pretty sure the back ups were in at that point. I know someone had posted a pic of it on here.
Closest thing I could find was Lewis standing over a dead Packer:

I went through all the PE.com and NFL.com pics of the game earlier today. It's not there, the picture was probably from ESPN, SI, or the AP. Seems unlikely that someone here will get their hands on it, unfortunately.

You all suck.
mussa came the closest. It was Mikell. I found a video of it on a DVD I have of 2004 videos, but now I have a new problem. If I try to "print screen" of the video to get a picture, all I get is a black screen. I tried removing the overlays from WMP, but still can't get a screen capture.
Any ideas?
yea thats right. demon you might have to resave the dvd to a diff. file format to get the screen shot. im not sure though...

We'll see a lot of that this year with our SS, only he'll be the one limp on the ground, and the WR will be taunting him.

Ha. You're talking out of your ass.

For Considine, the improvement comes in a physical sense. He moves well, he sees the ball, he reads well and he knows the scheme well. But Considine needs strength. He needs to bulk up and become more stout and tackle better.
If he can make that kind of improvement, Considine has a chance to dramatically improve his role in the defense. He knew it last year. He knew how challenging the physical demands of the defense and of the NFL were for him.
I'm guessing we will see a more stocky Considine in the spring. I'm certain he has been in the weight room, building his body for the long grind of the season. Let's see what kind of difference it makes in his game
Everyone knows how excellent an evaluator Spads is. The man spits troof.
Considine and Bunkley will be virtually impossible to tell apart.
considine is one of those players who is so awful at one part of the game (tackling/stopping the run in this case) that people are tricked into believing he is real strong at the other part of the game (pass coverage)
dont get it twisted tho considine isnt especially good at either
I love how in one offseason Considine is going to 'bulk up'. Unless he takes a helper (steroid, pro-hormone) the most he'll gain is 5 lbs. of muscle, and considering his thin frame thats being generous.
Does anyone remember the open field tackle he had on either Jones or Barber in the first Dallas game? That was his tackling highlight reel.
I remember he had a nice open field tackle on Mike Vick, but that's about it....
I like Considine, he came in last year and played way over my expectations. He's a hard hitter and IS better coverage guy than Lewis. That being said I wouldn't mind them bring in another SS to compete, via draft or FA.
A picture is worth 1000 words. Or, in this case, 3 pictures and a whole story.

Well, it's a good thing they re-signed Mikell.

Not only that, but I think his coverage "abilities" were blown out of proportion because of how bad Lewis had been in the previous weeks before getting benched.
absolutely sarge....thats something i brought up during the season
Both Sheldon Brown and Considine had a lot of *almost* coverages last year, where a receiver beat them deep, but it looked more like a speed/athleticism issue than a mental mistake.... whereas when Lewis blew coverages, he meant business about it and usually wasn't even in the camera shot.
The net result is the same - big gainers and TD's.
I think Lewis' Complete LACK of coverage "skills" made Considine's pedestrian coverage abilities look stellar in comparison. While he's not great, I'm willing to give him a full season since his rookie year was washed out with injuries.
It doesn't make me feel dreamy, but if the LB's suck as bad as last year, you could put Jesus at SS, and the defense would still be average.
has anyone said anything about lewis's bad coverage skills making considine's look better?
LOL - I was looking for a McCoy picture to use as a joke and found this snippet from PE.Com on him:
QuoteMatt McCoy -- McCoy is enjoying a breakout season, his first as a starter and second in the league. McCoy is second among the linebackers with 62 tackles this season and with a good grasp of the defense, is able to use his speed and instincts. Jeremiah Trotter took McCoy under his wing after McCoy struggled to assimilate to the defense his rookie season. Trotter said that McCoy is "explosive, athletic" and is "a crazy man."
That might be the most absurd collection of bullshtein I've ever read. McPherson should be shtein-canned for writing it too.
Ass.

I don't think so. Tell us all about your theories.

Ass.
When was that written?
McCoy did have good games during the 1st four or five weeks of the season.
The whole defense had good games during the same period. Then they all went tits up.
