San Diego isn't exactly a great team, but they have some great players. And some great mis-matches against the Eagles. They are similar to the Eagles in the sense that they are slow starters and maddeningly inconsistent. Oh, and Norv Turner is a bonehead.
Antonio Gates versus the LBs and DBs = advantage Bolts
Darren Sproles versus the LBs & on STs = advantage Bolts
Vincent Jackson & Malcolm Floyd = advantage Bolts
The only hope to win is to beat up Rivers, which is possible because the SD OL is not great and to throw a lot because their secondary is beatable.
AFC game on the road = automatic loss
They open as a 2.5-pt underdog, O/U 47.0
No Matt Ware=No Win

And I don't even know what LBs will be on the field. After Jordan went out yesterday, I think the entire group had what, 3 starts with the team between them?
So is the sky falling yet? From the looks of this place I'd say yes. from the perspective of a rational person I still believe that they will go either 9-7 or 10-6.
How they get those wins is farging beyond me at this point, but they will get them because my penance for years of suceeding without trying and being snarky and destructive to those around me is that I will have to tolerate 25 years of Andy Reid on the sidelines in Philadelphia.
I would add an internet-approved "fml" but my life rules so I'll just say farg Andy Reid and be satisfied that my point has been made.
Andy in AFC road games:
1999-2001 = 4-2 (one of which was Seattle)
2002 (realignment/expansion/new rotation)-present = 6-8-1
four of those ten wins were against Cleveland and Kansas City
and not that they've played in San Diego that much anyway, but they haven't won there since 1974...
This is the game that marks the next step of the annual mid-season swoon. AFC road trip, zesty match-ups (as noted above) and endless pass plays. Weather should be nice, though.
But at least they'll be a "scrappy" race to a wildcard after a wrist-slitting run of the next 4 games
Thom Brennaman and Brian Billick are calling this one. Great....
The game will be on in Philly, San Diego, Syracuse and Denver....that's about it. Bar, DirecTV or illegal for everyone else....
lol @ cuse still getting mcnabb games
that was like, 14 years ago.
I'm having trouble even looking forward too this next game after Sunday night. I know that every year since Romo became the Cowboys qb that he looks good in the beginning of the year and tanks out before he can win a playoff game or even make the playoffs. That has happened more than not at the hands of the Eagles. But still, Andy Reid has me with such a bad taste in my mouth, that I don't think I can really get excited for a game anymore. The situation right now is such that this team will be lucky to make the playoffs, even with all the talent we have on offense. I know the o-line is inconsistent, but I feel this team doesn't reach it's potential solely because of Andy Reid and his game day coaching. This team is inconsistent with a capital I, and half the time doesn't looked prepared to play at all, and that is a direct reflection of it's coach.
Until Lurie can find it within himself to find another coach and move Ried up to the FO, or let him go altogether, every year to come will be the same as we've endured in the past.

I only have a good feeling for this game as I'm in San Diego for it (arrived yesterday).
Hoping the Eagles have a good game - that I really have something to cheer about!!
Birds 31
Rivers 24
The "Gold Standard" looses this one but still manges to go 4-4 in the last 1/2.
my only prediction is that i'll be too drunk to have any clear memories after 10am pst.
youre a better man than me if you can find five wins on the schedule after sunday

L.T. has a hip injury
Posted by Mike Florio on November 12, 2009 1:07 PM ET
As Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson figuratively limps through what could be his final NFL season, he could be literally limping, too.
Tomlinson, hobbled earlier this year with a sprained ankle, missed practice Wednesday with a hip injury.
The development comes as a time when coach Norv Turner is expressing a desire to pump up the running attack, which has languished in 2009.
Currently, the Chargers are last in the league, averaging only 69.6 rushing yards per game.
"We need more carries," Turner said Wednesday. "To continue to get better as a total team, no question we need more."
Five other Chargers missed practice on Wednesday, including tight end Antonio Gates (foot), defensive lineman Travis Johnson (groin), defensive tackle Ogemdi Nwagbuo (ankle), linebacker Shaun Phillips (ankle), and linebacker Jyles Tucker (ankle).
Center Nick Hardwick, who sprained his ankle way back in Week One, participated on a limited basis. He has been practicing at times over the past few weeks, but Hardwick has yet to return to practice.
Linebackers Shawne Merriman fully participated on Wednesday, despite a foot injury.
looks like the battle of the gimps and the makings for an ugly game. o/u total run plays = 7
i bet a good chunk of change on the over in this game

if it works whatever, he has the make-up for it...but I wouldnt say im thrilled about it.
Im pretty sure Gocong has more speed then both Witherspoon and Fokou at this point, and they will need his speed inside/outside the hashes--especially against a squad that passes their ass off.
dont know if anyone saw this but M. Mayock and Belick break down the eagles/dallas game and some of the problems.

its crazy all the shuffling thats going on with that front. Im sure ron rivera is going to throw a lot of blitz packages at mcnabb to throw him and the line off being how bad he is against the blitz this year, but I still think they win this game though... not because they are more talented than SD, but I like them more as an underdog

OK, you all know i'm the last to defend this FO. But they have a shteinload of injuries this year and right now. THey lost their starting MLB, another starting LB and 2 CBs. What teams have enough depth in those positions to have "those who would start on a playoff team" waiting on the bottom of their roster?
Comments like these are farging ridiculous. They went out and got Witherspoon which is looking like the pickup of the year so far. They can't pull that shtein off every week when there is another injury or suspension.
WTF else are they supposed to do?
Again, I hate this FO. You all know that. Reid, banner, lurie...all of them. But this kind of shtein is ridiculous to get on them about.
Having Gocong as a linebacker starter is what's a joke. They lucked into Witherspoon too. And while it's impossible to have All-Pro backups coming off the bench it would be nice if they had at least remotely competent players but that's just not how they roll.
On the plus side, they'll have two out of three linebacker spots filled with okay players next year with Stewie and Witherspoon.

Bullcrap. Like the wr position in years past, the linebackers have gone almost unadressed. They have one that might have made the pro bowl, and he has been lost for the season.
, the other who was injured wasn't that good anyway. All the rest are either out of position or just not good. The linebacker position has been a terrible part of this defense for the better part of the time Reid has been here, other than Trotter, and thats debatable around here.

Exactly, thier backups are practice squad players. Since Bradley, when was the last time they drafted a starting linebacker??
"WTF else are they supposed to do?" How about addressing the need they've had for the last 5-6 years for a decent linebacking corps before someone gerts injured and exposes thier roster for the lack of depth is has?
Hmm, so name me all of those teams with 3 quality backup LBs. :yay
Pittsburgh, historically.
Backups? This team doesn't even have 3 quality starting linebackers

farging this
the issue is that the starters are a disgrace...so if your first three are the worst in the nfl what the hell do you think your back ups are gonna be
Akeem Jordan would be a nice 4th LB. I like the way he plays. Pretty aggressive and can make some big plays here and there.
I struggle to think about any big play made by Gocong. He rarely misses games. But he's no solid, no numbers guy like Carlos Emmons was. Emmons wouldn't get picks or sacks but was just a damn good SAM.
I like the idea of Stew and Witherspoon next year.
But that won't help the disgusting mismatches at Jack Murphy tomorrow.
its not gocongs fault...its farging andy reids...gocong is the eagles division II engineering version of the wildcat
I actually think Gocong has shown the ability to get to the QB. Once he's done flaming out as a LB, I hope the give him the chance to put his hand down for a season.
gocong was and remains a situational pass rushing defensive end. putting him at the mike might be the most comically retarded move of reid's tenure in philly. i know they don't have many other choices but that's on reid/heckert too.
I just saw a guy walk by in an eagles jersey #45 that said "irvins end" on the back. Awesome
pics or it never happened.
Do you think I'm smart enough to come up with that on my own?
Eagles: 27
Chargers: 24
A true hope and a prayer pick.
Eagles win.
LT breaks a bone
Phillips has a stroke and dies
Matt Ware blocks field goal
They actually have a decent shot today.
I still think the Chargers win but for the sake of argument I'll say...
Eagles 24
Chargers 23

seriously - didn't know that. just a feewing.

They've got Witherspoon at SAM and Gocong in the middle....
Howard/Abiamiri get a sack.
Babin has looked good so far since they activated him, surprisingly.
Trotter Sucks
And 3rd and 4 from your own 11 yard line...Andy thinks a brilliant play call would be the TE screen. :yay
My god get rid of Rocca, he cant punt from the endzone
dammit.
These guys sometimes look like they don't want to play.
Well, that was quick.
Our linebackers are the awesomest!
lol @ rocca still being on this team
and lol @ this linebacking core
this is gonna be a bloodbath. donovan sulkathon 2009.
over lookin solid
3 and out here we come
2nd and 4...time to pass... :boom
Christ, why do the commentators always say McNabb is an accurate QB??
lol at mcnabb generally an accurate passer
did you see the look on celeks face after that pass....hes like put farging cobb in
who the farg is # 86 ;D
Reggie sighting!
YAY!!
What in the world... was that?!
Ugh with the trickery...just run the farging ball Andy.
who the farg runs a double reverse in the NFL
has any team run trick plays worse than the eagles. and now they have athletes. farg you andy i hope you die.
The Chargers suck against the run, so our coach passes away.
This team goes all or nothing. Horrible 1st down loss and then you decide to bomb it down the field instead of trying to make it 3rd and manageable? If this team doesn't score in 4 plays or less they don't score.
The funny thing is McNabb is #2 all time for lowest interception %, but that doesn't correlate to being accurate.

two runs
six passes
and a disasterous double reverse
and this is the scripted part of the game plan
it will only get worse. they farging suck. Oh, and about Gocong being sam, remember in camp when Fokou was being talked about as starting MLB..LOLZ
Would someone shoot every single one of our LB's. fargin idiots.

This sucks something awful. But I had good food at the tailgate.
Damn, this team is stupid as shtein.
is sarge really posting on a message board from a game
of course he is
thats how bad they suck, Sarge would rather talk about a tailgate than the mess he's at
Pimp is back on the sidelines.
2 rush yards for the Eagles.
Yes he is. Its better than watching this garbage. Where's my makers?
good and bad news "phillies" fans desean jackson is fine and will be coming back
ummm whats the bad news funhole?
:-D Gocong sucks
Chargers offense is carving the Eagles D up.
i think brian billick just learned what the word 'passive' means
Sheldon can't run.
christ sakes...
The thing that sucks is if we get blown out NOTHING will change, absolutely fargin nothing. Fat Ass will keep plodding along.
Sheldin brown ftl
So lets see.
Defense sucks.
Offense sucks.
Special Teams are stupid.
I am proud of this team. ::)
I hope your happy fat ass, you dumb farg
LT to the house. Think he's done that a few times before... :paranoid
if they dont put a drive together before halftime i sit down donovan...not even because its been his fault but just to try something ANYTHING other than the garbage that is this offense
plus youre at the stage of his career with this probably being his last year in philly where you dont give a flying farg if his wittle feelwings get hurt

chickenshtein andy won't go for it
How sad was that shtein?
WHAT THE FARG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
mother fargin idiots
Fire him. NOW.
There is just NO farging excuse. None.
How.
EMBARRASSING
and how the farg do you not go for that down 14...your defense is rocked with injuries...youre offense is inconsistent at best and zesty at worst and you kick a fg??
What a joke
Because as the announcer said....they don't get it on first down, every team knows he's abandoning trying to run it on second down and going for the play action.
Now WTF did they wait til 3rd down to line the backs up in the I? Enough with this split backs shtein in goal line.
Fair catch? at the 5? Get the farg out of the way.
that was moronic...good thing maclin is contributing on offense because he sucks on special teams
aaaaaaaaaaand Maclin fair catches a punt at the 5. :boom
take your time guys, why hurry?
mcnabb already looks spent and might puke soon
cant imagine what hes gonna be like in the 4th

great farging throw as he got hit
clock management caught him off guard? :-D
22 attempts in the 1st half, oh yeah...this is gonna be a puker
way to not look at a wide open westbrook there, and do a worm burner instead
lol at running it there of all places
here comes another FG
lol at that run
A sweep? holy shtein man :(
Here comes a wasted play... and then 14-6.
LOL!!
beautiful, farging morons
awesome.
This team is garbage in the red zone.
throw it in or out of the end zone douche...at least give yourself a shot
What the heck was that? Plus that was a no-back set wasn't it? (not like our running game is a threat, but still)
Please fire Reid and Morningwood. Please.
It is both a miracle and a travesty that this is 14-6 game at halftime.

I'm having more fun watching the Australian commercials on this feed than the actual game!
Yeah, Fox TV is just as zesty down under as here, apparently...
the process of writing my article on the northeast/washington game is more exciting than this team
im barely paying attention. i dont even care anymore. just be done with this regime. though, getting another classic McHeart-throb/McNabb, that sweet hunk of man meat, tonight will be funny
dallas down and shutout at half...could be huge if they can come back and win this
FFS why do to the talking heads keep saying the Eagles run the WCO? They don't pass short/medium routes, and the real West Coast relies on play action off of a solid running game. Sigh...
Sheldon Brown hurt, so looks like the Eagles are down to Samuel and a bunch of nobodies at corner.
9 yds. rushing :-D
LOL a run
nice pocket awarness
WTF McNabb you didnt fargin see that?

so glad they got that first field goal
Bobby Taylor was a far superior tackler than Asante is. So bad.
It's going to be a while before the Eagles get a call in this game too. Offensive PI on Maclin but not on Floyd when he pushed Sheldon out of bounds. Unneccessary roughness on that push by Fokou? The Eagles are terrible on their own they don't need any help.
the linebackers are getting blown away and we suck!
Is it safe to say that McDermott ain't Johnson yet?
I wonder how many losses to balanced offenses it will take before Fatty realizes the value of a running game?

the worst part of this season is that they already have five wins which means they end up with 7 to 9 wins and go into the offseason with a zesty team and an average draft pick

we shouldve been on this earlier
she started the nfl moms group and demanded to play dons mom in the chunky soup commercials after the actress did it the first time. total control freak and they typically raise weak minded and soft kids.
i guess shady hasnt been on the team long enough to realize in hurry up situations youre supposed to mosey on back to the huddle after plays
Holy shtein, McNabb was avctually jogging there :o
Who's this Avant guy, and why hasn't he had more playing time? ;)
:boom fargin a. to many Penalties
If they come back and win this, I don't know if I'll be happy or suicidal...
they might as well huddle up, they are taking 25 secs to run a freakin play.
and now he runs
lol how finished is westbrook and how awful is shady in short yardage.
holy farg another timeout
if they didnt kick that first fg you wouldnt have to go for this right now
come the farg on, move it move it move it.
Celek...Pro Bowl?
why the farg are you running now?
small thing but not going for 2 on the last td was brutal
you make its its a td with 2 pt and a fg to tie. you miss you still need 2 tds, like you do now.
shady was wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide open coming outof the backfield

That's game...
This defense is just awful.
the savior here is that normally youd be throwing shtein against the wall right now but because you know the offense has zero chance of having a late game td winning drive you dont really care
can't wait to hear all the excuses by Fattie after this one.

You may as well get some sound bytes from a loss in 1999 and play it today.
if macho cuts that to his right he might have been gone
Good thing the Eagles have such tall recievers to go for a hail mary!
450 yds passing and only 23 pts. :-o
With this loss it's going to be very hard to make the playoffs. Dallas is getting beat 17-0 by the Packers. The Eagles have blown a big chance to gain in the standings, just like they did last week. After watching the offensive ineptitude in the red zone today, I can't help but think that this season is over. There will be no playoffs this year for the Eagles. Not unless they make a miraculous turnaround.
When Andy Reid gets an extension it is going to be awesome.

They lost to the Raiders. It was already going to be hard to make the playoffs.
ha.....after all of this, the Eagles actually moved up from the #6 seed to the #5 seed this weekend...
9-7 Wildcard, first round exit. Reid will be able to keep saying he consistently fields playoff caliber teams. Fans' brains will explode when they realize it means many more years of Fatty. Kolb starts next season, Eagles finish 10-6, first round exit. McNabb goes to a run first team that just need an experienced QB who won't do anything truly stupid (think Johnson with the Bucs or Dilfer with the Ravens) and wins a SB ring. God laughs.
They won't make the playoffs if they continue like this. They wouldn't have made it last year barring a Giants collapse and them getting extremely hot at the right time.
I don't see this team getting hot again though. Andy Reid is too bad for it to happen again and McNabb too inconsistent.
now im not saying they are gonna go 1-6 the rest of the way but other than sf i dont see a game left that you feel really confident about them winning
my guess is 8-8
You feel confident about the SF game?

Yeah...right. You look at the standings and see a team one game out of first. I look at
this team and see 58 penalties, terrible inconsistancy and game day coaching, and a qb whose best days are far behind him. Not too mention a defense that within the last two weeks lost two corners and seems to be getting worse by the game.
The remaining schedule:
Chicago
Washington
Atlanta
New York Giants
San Fransisco
Denver
Dallas
You might think that Chicago, Washington, and San Fran are wins, but don't forget this is the same team that lost to the friggen' Raiders. They have terrible coaching, and cannot, I repeat, cannot get it done inside the twenty. When you have a offense who can't get a single yard in three tries, you have some really serious problems. I can see them going 3-4 or 1-6 to finish the season.

before leaving the game, westbrook was averaging about 4.7 ypc. he had SIX carries.
this is the dumbest farging team the redzone. reid's terrible playcalling gets even worse inside the 20 and the entire offense in general just seems to no give a shtein.
this defense is terrible. sheldon brown has no business thinking he deserves a raise after yesterday. they made LT look like he was 5 years younger.
why the hell was buckley and macho harris returning kicks? why was maclin returning punts?
what's the record on consecutive plays from the shotgun? i bet andy slaughtered it yesterday.
did i see the eagles line up in the wishbone and then motion out of it on one of their god awful play action plays in the red zone?

Yesterday zapped me of emotion. It is painful to watch the same farging idiotic football week after week. Dumb penalties, dumb mistakes....everything. Totally unprepared and undisciplined.
Oh, I loved McNabb begging the sideline to run the ball after the failed rollout on 3rd and short.
I hate that goddamn roll out play on short yardage and especially in the red zone! Why take away half the field in a already shortened area to work?!
Props to McNabb for motioning the running motion to the sideline.
farg you Andy and Marty.
props to for him asking to run?
hes still a Hoyda. call a freaking audible you pansy.
Did they have the personnel on the field to run it? I dont remember the formation.
then call a timeout or wait for a delay to prove a point
growing a pair and bashing andy in the media like he bashes people behind their backs is one thing, it would be great but i dont expect it. at least behind the scenes and in game, do something.
but hes just a parrot to andy. its andy eagles and andys team. donovan is his bitch. gonna be hurt feelings when hes cast out of town next year.
lol mcnabb said yesterday in the post game presser that the team didnt have enough veteran leadership
Good for him.
Oh, and did anyone see Chris farging Gocong make a tackle yesterday?!
The first thing that icehole hit was when he pushed the Chargers OL in the face at the end of the deflating drive in the 4th.

The only legit loss they have is to the Saints.
Play like they are capable of and they beat Oakland, Dallas and San Diego.
Dispute it.
Yeah they could be 8-1, but the fact of the matter is they are what their record reflects. If you can't convert short yardage on a consistent basis you aren't going to win. If you can't score in the redzone you aren't going to win. If the defense can't make a stop when it needs to late in the game you aren't going to win.
Halfway through the season they haven't fixed any of these issues. Hell they have had these same issues for several seasons.
Exactly right, one of Parcells' best quotes was "you are what your record says you are".
*inefficient in the red zone
*poor special teams play
*no run blocking whatsoever
*inability to convert short yardage
*poor play calling
*dumb farging penalties
If the run blocking/short yardage/red zone junk was even half decent, they would have won at least the last two games.
That is what is so frustrating, because any good NFL team can do even the simplest things, yet this team can't.
that's because this team isn't very good. farg me for still watching them.
I honestly don't know why anyone is pissed off after this particular game. For I don't even know how long now, you know the outcome of games by halftime. If they're going to lose, their last attempt will come with about 7 minutes left in the fourth quarter. If they're going to win, they're up by twenty.
I genuinely enjoyed the game. The stupid playcalling, the wasted timeouts, the complete refusal to run the ball. All of it. Friggin' loved it. I got to MST3k my way through the whole thing.

The penalties thing is new to this and last season, but everything else that ails this team has been going on for years
i cant ever remember the penalties being close to this bad...directly related to there being no leadership and thus no accountability in the locker room anymore

4th most so far this year
4th least last year
last year they had 74 penalties called on them total
they already have 67 this year
Last couple of years of the Rhodes era seemed to have a lot of flags. Perhaps leading indicator of eventual breakdown. I mean could you see Reid pushing a Hegamin on a sled today? Nope. Mr, Discipline isn't so much now just like Rhodes at the end....

So that's why he picked up Vick!
r diddy is on the radio now saying that after watching the tape, Donovan didn't play nearly as well as he thought he did live. missed a lot of open receivers. many of the plays in the red zone were there to be made, but Donovan either missed the throw or waited too long to throw the ball.

Its a shame that the eagles make these runs to get in the playoffs year after year, thus the reason Reid gets these light passes (at least in my mind) from the press and upper management..more-so from upper management because its a dollar and cents thing to them. Getting to the superbowl was a crusher in terms of his firing of any kind. Thats why it disgusts me that there is talks of an extension.
His play calling and coaching inefficiencies gets overshadowed by McNabbs play. Should McNabb get criticized..no doubt...but their should be a local/national shtein storm on tv, newspapers, etc. about Reid to no end after every game. I dont think there is a coach in the league that comes close to making the blunders that Reid makes on game day on a consistent basis...even the worst NFL coaches with the worst record.
Watching that game live made me sick Sunday and it should of to Lurie as well. A "true" winning organization with the right goal in mind would see these mistakes as a horrendous trend that only gets worse (if thats possible), not better, and looks for the right guy to being them a championship. Not this one which is a joke.

You could literally kill everybody on this team right now. Every player on this team that is playing has left plays out on the field. Good teams don't do that.
Avant had a pretty good game this week. Can't really complain about the guy that was supposed to be last on the depth chart.
avant is money. jackson/maclin/avant is basically the exact opposite of the top 3 recievers the eagles have ever run out on the field since reid took over.
they have good to great receivers yet they still refuse to balance them out with a decent running game.
farg this team. i hope reid's heart goes supernova on him.
Reese, stop acting like you were there. If you were, you would have stopped and said what's up.

Ditto this. Its seriously maddening to watch.
it's no more maddening than when they had below average recievers and still didn't run. if anything, this should be the year that we want to see mcnabb throwing the ball 40 times a game because after 10 years, reid finally has the personnel to run a pass oriented offense. jackson, maclin, avant, celek, mccoy and weaver are all threats to catch the ball and make plays. the inconsistancy of this offense and the passing game is without a doubt, proof positive of how terrible reid is at game planning/in-game playcalling.
he has EVERYTHING that he needs to run the type of offense that he wants to run and it still isn't working. what else does lurie need to see to realize that his head coach simply hasn't, isn't, and never will get the job done?

I am just saying in general. I love this receiving corps as a whole, but they have had some key drops. Avant probably only has one or two drops the whole season.
This is definitely the best group this franchise probably has ever had. The main point I was trying to make is that no one area on this team should be shielded from criticism.
