It's good to have this all in one place. Pick the winner of the Eagles game straight up week to week. The score differential will be used for an end-of-season tiebreaker if needed. Like IGY's contest, any edit is a DQ. Picks must be submitted before the scheduled kickoff time. I will edit this post with the results weekly.
Feel free to pad/banter/mock all you want in between predictions. You're welcome.

Awesome contest. Best ever.
Eagles lose to the Packers.
Eagles 19

this IS my contest...i stopped doing it cause i got tired of tracking everyones stupid predicitions...im very happy someone else is
the closer we get to this game the more confident i get but i know its only because its the opener and i always get like this
that said i give the eagles a shooters chance because of green bays pass defense
but at that point it comes down to a qb game and the eagles lose cobb vs rodgers everytime
the game goes one of two ways...high scoring but cobb throws a few picks that rodgers doesnt and the eagles have a few to many three and outs
or
the eagles have a million three and outs...one of those games where they dont get a first down till like their third or fourth possesion and by then its 14 or 10 nothing on the way to an easy green bay win
you KNOW which way im going
green bay 30

but its not even that close
By tomorrow I will be more optimistic too. It'd be nice to steal a win.

The elusive Packerbird.
Green Bay Peckers.
I think Green Bay wins this one.
Ok onto week 2:
They should be able to beat Detroit with Shaun Hill at QB. Detroit has a terrible secondary so Kolb (I think he plays this week) should be able to pick them apart.
Of course if they should also runt he ball about 20-25 times with Bell getting some carries.
The Birds got a huge break when Stafford went out. With him, I think they would've beat the Eagles.
If Reid doesn't farg this up, it can be a huge confidence builder for Kolb. Have him throw it 20-25 times, and pound the football. My hunch is this doesn't happen, the Birds win ugly, and there are even more concerns afterwards than there are this week.
well if anyone saw the detroit/bears game you would of saw Cutler running out of the pocket because of pressure the majority of the game. They forced him into a lot of bad throws. It wasnt until they started throwing screens and dumping off to Forte that things turned around
the detroit pass rush is their strong suit, so I expect a lot of the same going down for Kolb this week as well
Well word is that Kolb wont play. Or that the NFL is going to be on the Eagles to play it conservative so we might see Vick start this coming week.

They started with the concussion stuff last year. If the doctor comes in and you tell him two plus two is banana, you don't get to play. Last year Westbrook went through a fruit salad before they let him back on the field.
i cant imagine he plays even if hes cleared to go on friday just because he wont have practiced all week

other people picked the eagles too, dummy.
Eagles win this week.
My prediction last week was pretty good until Vick had to go in.
The Lions are improved and will keep the game close/interesting throughout. I think the Eagles win but I won't be surprised if the Lions pull a last minute upset. I will be surprised if either team is dominant or controls the game tempo.

27-23 packers win after scoring a td in the last minute. this after the eagles had to settle for a FG in the prior drive because they could not get 6 in the redzone.
I'm not going through that mess for anyone else's prediction, so no.

Especially.
its funny because all you heard all week is that detroit is improving its not the same old detroit they should have won vs chicago if not for the ref
well no they shouldnt have won...chicago had four turnovers over 100 yards in penalties and still outgained detroit by 300 yards and 10 first downs
detroits offensive line might be worse than the eagles and the eagles defense is better
this could be indomikhen suhs coming out party as i would expect him to eat mike mcglynn for lunch
brandon graham homecoming should have him playing like a tazmanian devil...whether that leads to a few sacks or a bunch of over pursuits is to be seen
barring a catastrophe of say something like 5 eagle turnovers they should win this game quite easily...backed by a few interceptions and a possible pick six by assante

those are some crazy non football numbers
detroit was completely unprepared for the eagles spreading the field last week and running shady on the delays...i think jacksonville will be ready for this and force the eagles oline to physically move people if they want to run the ball...this means their ends will be staying at home more and should give vick much daylight to the outside...the question is with vick now the announced starter are andy and marty trying to make him a pocket quarterback who runs (ala early mcnabb) as opposed to a running quarterback...that to me will be the most interesting aspect of this game
i suspect it will be more towards the former as andy wants his offense run like he wants it run...which brings up the ultimate question...can vick (or has he to an extent already) become a competent passing quarterback...i need more proof than one game vs detroit...so until i see consistency in vicks throwing im leaning towards him having a come back to earth type game this week ...combine that with a very efficient dink and dunk game by garrard to mjd and mercedes lewis andit all leads to a jacksonville win at home where they are a different team

Fifth season, but whatever.

Yeah he was actually drafted the same year as VD wasn't he? He was the 2nd "big name" TE in that draft but has been used more as a blocker in Jax.

Not sure I buy that.
Sportsbook has 81% of the $ on ATL. You can never tell how representative that is with sample sizes but you're getting a large portion of the play on ATL here, which leads me to think Vegas doesn't have a problem with the $ going against Philly.

im sure they dont care which way the money is going....but the money in vegas has been flying towards the eagles all week...mainly because people only know their own teams and not others...especially in depth...they basically see two equal teams (probably a slight lean towards the eagles being better) with one of them at home and thats the one they are betting on
they might be right who knows but thats def the way the general public is thinking

Yeah not sold on them being the best team in the NFC. A win is a win but they haven't really had the most impressive wins.
The best NFC team should have beaten a Ben less Steelers team. Maybe I am in an extremely homer mood, but I see the Eagles winning this one with Kolb or Vick.

No one poo pooing.
ATL does not come across as scary good. They have a good record and in the mediocre NFC might turn out to be the best team but looking at this game I don't get the feeling of doom.
The Falcons don't scare me with their ability to play well as much as the Eagles scare me with their ability to play bad.
Having said that, the Eagles can't cover TE and the Falcons have arguably the best ever. Not to mention that the best QB the Eagles have faced out of their 3 wins is David Garrard....who scares no one. Ryan is legit and if the Eagles defense gives him the same late game opportunities they gave to Hill or Smith, he will most definitely take advantage of it.

The Phillies lost last night so the Eagles are absolutely a mortal lock to win today, and win big too.
Everyone here needs to bet big on the Eagles.

Check out the big brain on Rome! You're a smart motherfarger
No love for Drunkmasterflex? Last one to get his prediction in before kickoff, and he calls the score exactly? Nucking futz!
I didn't check the time, I just thought he was being a smartass. Props to DMF.
dmf is a smart young fellow.
haha well Im half smart....so I am curious do PG and Phreak still think Kolb is awful. He isn't even a backup?

3-1 as a starter (not counting GB) and he's thrown for 300 yards in 3 of those games. Definitely not backup worthy. They'll still bang the hate drum.
Yeah, I hate him.
Questioning his skills is hate? Wondering if he is the right choice and opining that he is not is hate?
Regardless he is at least solid

Updates made.
We have a new overall leader, by virtue of a tiebreaker. Phreak is still, however, a McNabb-farging hillbilly who drives a new truck with no wheels.
Neat fact: Both of our lovable week 6 losers, IGY and Drunkmasterflex, called the exact correct final score but for the wrong team.
from seeing them monday nite i was impressed by how farging strong and big the titans defense is...they are gonna mash the eagles offensive line...however they lack speed on that side of the ball...if mandy can get together and come up with a perfect game plan of short underneath routes crossing routes mis directions plays ect that get people in space to take advantage of that mismatch they could have a chance.....its really a shame but this is one game where they could really use pimp...look for chad hall to possibly have a bust out day
please please please start the game kerry collins
17-12 titans
Vince Young is the worst quarterback in history so I'm rooting hard for his immediate return.
DeSean Jackson was not the brightest bulb in the first place so a concussion concerns me not and I am rooting hard for his immediate return.
Andy Reid is typically asleep at the wheel the week before a bye.
The Titans are on a short week after the monday night smooshing of the Jags.
In other words, this game will be close with the Eagles pulling out a last second victory.
20 - 19 Eags.
I predicted a win earlier this week, so I'll stick with that.
28-22 Eagles.
The Eagles already have their 1 win over an AFC opponent...
Eagles 15

hahaha...I just noticed I picked Akers to kick 5 field goals, obviously forgetting he sucks
Jackson playing this game would give me a better feeling about it.

I'll order one with you. Group discount.

I think this is a tough spot for the Eagles. Fisher always completely outcoaches Reid and the Eagles had a perfect game plan last week. What are the chances of him completely outcoaching his opponent 2 weeks in a row? Plus I can bet you the Titans find a way to exploit the offensive line. Kolb could be under pressure quite a bit. Then they will pound Johnson all game long, but they don't have a QB who can exploit our secondary.
My head tells me the Titans, but I'll pick the Eagles anyway simply because I always pick them as it's the awesome thing to do.

if not for the "close one" score you nailed it.
this week the eagles will lose to the bye
next week eagles lose to the colts 23-17. Akers redeems himself with 5 fgs then sacks manning in the endzone for a safety. gets fewer votes for ST player of the week than Indy's kick returner.

All I could think about watching that game last night was how Manning was going to carve the Eagles up. It could get ugly.
yeah i was thinking it had a chance to be close but that guy is too damn good for the eagles to stop

Probably because the movie thread (Dec 9, 2004) had already been in existence for over a year when you started the Miller's Crossing thread (Jan 26, 2006).
It was as random of a musing as there's ever been on this board, which you (ironically) started a thread for just a few months later.

I believe every bit of it. I think the owning of the Eagles by the Colts in recent years has made people terrified of anything having to do with the Colts. The Colts this season are not as good as they were last season or in recent years. They are riddled with injuries, their defense is a joke, and Manning has shown signs this season of actually being human.
If the Eagles beat the Falcons by double digits they can beat the Colts by double digits. Plus it is just a great spot. The Colts are not invulnerable to getting thumped in a game.
I won't say I disagree with the logic. Everything you've said about the Colts is true. But you left out one minor detail. Manning is about 1000x smarter that Reid, Marty and McDermott combined. The Colts won't win because they have owned the Eagles in recent years or because they have far superior players. They'll win because the Eagles are a mediocre team that lacks solid fundamentals and intelligence.
The Colts could win the game, I didn't pick it as a lock or anything. Any time you play a very good team, that team obviously has a chance of winning the game. I just think the spot for the Eagles points to big win. I wouldn't be shocked if the Eagles beat the Colts by double digits and then throw up another stinker against McGut and the taterskins so we'll have to hear about McNabb's revenge all season.
Also, you are right that Manning is way smarter than Reid and Co. but he's also smarter than the Jack Del Rio, and the Jags beat the Colts. Any other scenario than this one and I think the Colts probably win, but this is the best chance this team has of beating the Colts. If you can't do it this season, then it ain't happening.
Yes, this is thier best chance at beating the Colts. I still don't see it happening. He'll, given the outcome of recent games with them, I'll be happy if the Eagles lose by less than 10.

This is the same thing that was said about the Colts last week before they destroyed Houston. Don't forget, this is an Eagles team that got torched by previously unkown Kenny Britt and Kerry Collins.

I did know he was a first round pick, the only other thing I knew was that he had three td's all of last year, and matched that total in one game against the Eagles with Kerry friggen' Collins at qb. The point being that the Eagles defense sucks.

I actually think McNabb is going to play fairly well in this game. He caught fire for a few weeks after Reid benched him a couple years ago and I think he'll respond in similar fashion. I don't think it will be enough though because the Skins just aren't a very good team.

I don't get why anyone thinks shanahan is really all that great of a coach. Nobody chokes a season a way quite like this fraud.
Norv Turner and Andy Reid would like to have a word with you.
Shanahan has gone 7-3 at least 3 times and missed the playoffs.
Norv Turner chokes in the playoffs. Reid is dumbfounding at times.
Take away 3 years with John Elway and Terrell Davis... and Shanahan is average at best.
Agreed on Shanahan being overrated.
I also feel the same about Gruden
They are, but they'd both outcoach Reid nine times out of ten.
Are people arguing that Shanahan is somehow inferior to Reid as a coach? Remember, it only took him 6 games to realize that McNabb is a choking bitchboy. Reid still hasn't figured that out.

I'm not arguing it. I'm stating it as truth. Because it is.
You really don't think Reid didn't know about McNabbs deficiencies?
I don't think so, you can argue that Shannahan had Elway, but I'd counter that he doesn't even want to keep the same qb Reid kept for over ten years.

Their stats are so similar, I have to say the thing that separates Shanahan from Reid are the Superbowl wins.
You don't say!
Well if that's the only thing, they're completely comparable. We can't call one better than the other. Nothing to see here. Move along.

I think Andy Reid did what Andy Reid is best at doing. Ignoring the elephant in the room. Sure, some part of him knew that McNabb was weak as shtein and tried to cover it up with a false air of carefree douchebaggery, but the coach never acted on it. Shanahan sniffed that shtein out in less than half a season and sent a message to his dumb ass.
Andy Reid, has his strengths as a coach. Out-smarting other successful coaches, in-game, is not one of them. Pitting him against a two time championship coach makes my bowels loose.
i don't think shanahan is sending any message to mcnabb. i think he's sending a message to the rest of the team by pointing out that anyone, even the star quarterback, is accountable for their play.
shanahan's an icehole, no doubt, and the message simply doesn't play in 2010.

the whole nfl is bi polar...ever heard of parity?
new england gets blown out by cleveland then kills the steelers in pittsburgh
eagles beat the colts then put up 60 on a squad....i think its time for a loss...and its not even like they are playing a zesty team
The Eagles have been bi-polar for past few years, when other teams have been straight dominant. Just because this year its anyone game doesn't mean the Eagles are the same team. The only thing inconsistent this year has been Kolb's games. Vick in undefeated if you haven't noticed.
so vick has won four games and all of sudden theres no way they can lose to the first place team in the division?
I think this is a bad spot for Philly. I still think the Eagles eek it out, but it's a complete coinflip in my mind.
i agree with that and if vick doesnt get hurt i think he probably pulls it out in the end
but for some reason
maybe because im a hater
i have an ominous feeling that hes gonna get hurt
This one makes me nervous...the hype-train has been gaining momentum this week and that usually means a cold crash at the end.

We are tied for first IGEE. JON KITNA & THE 1-7(?) COWBOYS TORCHED THE GIANTS AT HOME LAST WEEK. I think we have a damn good chance of beating them. Call me farging crazy!

I think the Eagles probably win too, but lets not enact some magical transitive property here and pretend Dallas beating them last week somehow leads to the Eagles pulling out the victory here. The Giants are certainly beatable, and I wanted Dallas to win last week, but I think if anything it makes them more dangerous Sunday than if they had won.

Giants defense is good; Eagles defense is not

Any NFC East game is usually a close game, except last week. I just think the team is playing the best ball of the season right now and I think the Giants were exposed last week. Just hoping the coaches realize this as well.

real quick--how do you preface your prediction with that statement then pick the eagles to win?
I thought about that and then just decided to go with it.
the giants defense is 17 pts better than the eagles defense and vick is 21 pts better than eli?

All this hype is going to crash. Birds secondary is still suspect. Giants are going to be pissed about last week. I hope I'm wrong. Win here will be huge for the birds. Celek, please catch the ball and not worry about the hit.
no doubt hawk and don are baking right now.
how do you have a victim winning the game and the victor losing?
not baking, but still might be a little drunk from last night. pool league in conjunction with lack of self control is killing me

yeah, you already said vick wouldn't finish and the giants would win
Well, considering the Giants have knocked out 5 qb's so far this year, that is a real possibility.
That clearly plays in the Eagles' favor, as they've only had two QBs knocked out on offense.

True.
I had to pick against the Eagles two weeks in a row in an attempt to gain ground. Safe to say I'm OUT.

I'm geting mentally prepared for the trap game, but I don't think it's this one.

Bears 20
I don't think this could really qualify as a trap game.
So if the Eagles win this week and the Packers win.....don't they overtake the Eagles as the #2 seed?
Edit: guess they would be #1 since they are playing Atlanta.
It wouldn't be a trap game if anyone outside of Chicagoland actually believed the Bears were a good team.

Yes, GB would become #1, and the Eagles would jump over ATL. Not sure what the scenarios are if NO also wins though.

I think the Eagles are the better team and can win, but with the ebb and flow of games I like the Bears. They're coming off a long week (Thursday night game) and the Eagles are coming off 3 monster wins and have to travel to Chicago. If the Birds do win I'd expect it to be an ugly game, like 20-17 or something.

I also notice the front page hasn't been updated. I'm now tied with J in terms of record, but he has me on points.
I'll tell you what, starshine. You can do all the updating, post it, and I'll copy and paste it into the first post of the thread.
You shouldn't start something you can't finish
the easiest bet of the year would have been to put money on him not doing the standings for the full season
a good pool would have been to do the over under on what week he stopped doing it
weak
Updated. Those with 3 or fewer correct guesses and no tiebreaker are mathematically eliminated.
Phreak paid me $20 to keep the thing going because he "desperately needs a win in life." Sounds pretty bad, but money is money.
20 bucks isnt near worth enough money to have to track this thing...i think the year i did it i lasted three weeks
You say that now, but you've got a couple years with no pay raises to look forward to.
probably not dooks
unless it changes that only refers to cost of living increases
i got a step increase coming my way next summer
and then im going for my 14 in 2012

An easier way would be for everyone involved to keep track of their own records/scores then all you'd have to do is copy and paste. Honor system.
That would not be easier. It's only 5 more weeks. Phreak promised to pay me double the previous week every week he remains in the lead, so I stand to make $40+$80+$160+$320+$640 from him, plus the $20 this week. Apparently, he's had a good run at the Peruvian casinos.
We know he loves the Peruvian slots.

I haven't paid anything for these shenanigans.
But I did make a nice wad at the tables.
Yeah, you haven't paid yet. But your word is your bond. Bitch.

I think my score is the bestest and you are all donkeys.
Who has the better D? They win
It's much more likely to be the team that allows fewer points while scoring more.
It's much more likely to be the team that has the ball last
I think it'll come down to a fan vote via text message.

P.S. Standings are updated. Tomahawk and his awful cougar-hunting straw hat also got the margin of victory exactly correct. SD is closing in on Phreak in what could be deemed the least interesting battle in the history of sports message boards.

Updated. SD has gotten the point differential exactly correct two weeks in a row to pull within one point of PhillyPhreak54 in the tiebreaker. IGY has been the most incorrect two weeks in a row. All those with fewer than 7 correct picks are mathematically eliminated and are no longer being tracked, except for weekly recognition.
You idiots are actually keeping track of this? :-D
Side note to Don Ho... You will need Phreak and SD to pick the same team this week, and you will need to pick the other team in order to survive. Also, to tighten up that differential, you will need to go big. So, if they both pick the Eagles to win by a small margin, you should probably pick the Giants to win by 30. Just saying.
