pick the game straight up and with the spread each week
2 pt for a correct winner prediction
3 pt for person with closest score
2 pt for person with second closest score
2 pt for a cover
cannot get closest to score unless you pick the winner
closest to score is the lowest number by taking the distance you are from the eagles score to their actual pts PLUS the difference bwtn the opponent score and their actual score
so if the eagles win 20-15 and you picked eagles 24-17 you would be six pts from the actual score

The Browns are
bad, especially if Richardson isn't going to be 100%. I never underestimate the Eagles ability to farg something up, but Cleveland should be awful this year.
Cleveland is also 1-9 over the last 10 years on their opening day.
Maybe a rookie QB will help.
or the birds punting game.

its now 48 hrs before the game and the nfl refuses to announce if joe haden can play or not...for whatever reason this makes me so angry
anyway i really want to pick a shutout here because clevelands offense is a disgrace and i dont see how they score...but im giving them a fg that they will get from field position (a big return - eagle turnover - eagle punt from their own end zone) and a late garbage touchdown
24-10 if joe haden plays
31-10 if he doesnt
I figure the wide nine is good for three deepish Cleveland drives that rely entirely on the ground game, hence my 9-point prediction. But yes, their offense looks abominable.
their first unit OL couldnt block an eagles front made up of 1's and 2's in the preseason...now with everyone healthy on defense i expect even more of the same
Eagles 28
Browns 16
I do have this weird feeling though, that Cleveland will jump out to an early 14-0 lead, possibly even 17-0 before the Eagles wake up.
Last year I went full hater and did pretty well. This year I'll try full homer and probably do just as well.

So the Eagles are favored in this game. I remember them being favored in a lot of early games last season too.
Here's a word of advice: Take the Ravens
My prediction is a little over the top, but honestly I will be shocked if the Ravens don't beat the Eagles handily.
I do like what I saw from the defense, specially the Ryan and Kendricks.
Let's see if they can keep that going.
The Ravens offense looked better than it is on Monday. And they're coming off a short week and on the road. I think the Ravens win but it'll be an ugly close game.
i dont know about that regarding their offense...they are loaded if you ask as me and flacco is about to come into his own and have a bust out year
its weird to say this about a ravens team but im more impressed with their offense than their defense
classic letdown week for the ravens here....remember last year they blew out the steelers in the opener then went on the road and got owned by the titans...ravens are a home heavy team...i think they are like 25-2 in their last 27 home games...they also lost at jacksonville last year...and for those that believe in looking ahead hich i dont...they have new england next week...so could this also be a bad sandwich game for them...eagles are wrapped around a huge divisonal win at home to get the ravens overconfident and a game against the team that stands in their way of the lombardi trophy
eagles need to work the short areas of the field....gash them with shady....lots of misdirection to creat room...i know its not vicks strength but ravens defense is not quick...and you can exploit them in space....so lots of screens to shady and pimp...as well as short to intermediate crossing routes to take adavantage of a lost a step ray lewis and the overall lack of quicks at the lb position...i also expect celek to have a huge game...you cant force anything deep with ed reed back there..you know hes gonna try and probably succeed in goating vick into a couple picks...cant force it down the field sunday
eagles 33
ravens 27
Ravens 24

The defense plays well, but this is the game that cause the Nick Foles era to begin - and I don't mean that as a good thing. Vick has another multiple turnover game, against a team that capitalize on them. I think what we saw from Vick in the opener is what he is at this point. He's thrown 15 picks in his last 10 games. I think he's done, and Reid becomes a lame duck.
I like homer igy better than 'skins fan igy
A good chunk of it seems to be Homer IGY, but I can't help think there's a little bit of Raven Hater IGY in there.
i actually dont care about the ravens at all...i dont watch any bmore tv stations because they are so MA and the city in general is small time....their fans are minimal and non descript....overall the whole place is harmless and hard to hate
I heard Ray Lewis thought The Wire was stupid.

QuoteAdded Jeremy Maclin: "I'm not going to just let somebody slap my helmet or put their hands in my face. I'm a man."
Cullen Jenkins was also mixing it up. He and a Ravens defender were called for offsetting unsportsmanlike conducts on Vonta Leach's five-yard touchdown run in the first quarter.
"We want people to know what we're about. We want people to know we're going to fight," said Jenkins. "You're not going to intimidate us. That's pretty much it. We've still got a lot to improve on and have to clean up our play, but that's stuff that we can work on. But the fight in this team is definitely there."
As you might imagine, Baltimore felt it was the Eagles that were going over the line.
"They take a couple of shots," Ravens tailback Ray Rice said, via CSN Philly. "That's just how they're coached and stuff. They play dirty and stuff. They take shots after the play, lot of dirty stuff after plays."

Know what the offense did well last week and what they did well at the end of last season...using max protect. The Eagles don't disguise when they're using max protect, they usually line up a RB/TE in the backfield in a form of a pro set then have them shift to the sides of the tackles. You can't use max protect every play but when your QB is running for his life it's a nice variant to use along with the running game.

after you brought this up i broke down all their passing plays in the ravens game to see who they kept in to help out in protection...it looked like this
40 called passing plays
FB - 1
TE and RB - 9
RB - 4
TE - 7
2 TE - 0
empty - 15
FB/WR - 1 (avant)
chip block and release - 3
i also broke down the 15 plays where they kept no one in to help
1. quick dump off to shady
2. vick interception but had plenty of time
3. 15 yard completion to pimp
4. 20 yard completion to celek
5. almost picked off - no real pressure
6. dropped pass by shady - quick throw
7. dump off to havili
8. roll out to mack for the td
9. ngata urinated on the fireman and hit vick
10. almost picked - no real pressure
11. 12 yard completion to avant
12. vick hit as he was throwing
gw drive
13. 13 yards to pimp
14. 25 yards to celek
15. 15 yards to celek
so as you can see well over half the time they kept someone in to help...at the same time they were pretty successful when they went empty of extra protect...overall the line was excellent in pass protection and not so good in the running game...shady is a the closest thing to barry sanders youll see and saves them on so many occasions...the guy is just ridiculous...what also really helped them in the pass protect game was play action...for all vicks faults as far as being a traditional drop back in the pocket qb he runs play action beautifully

this is almost a carbon copy of the cleveland game...unless the eagles defense is a total fraud and we dont know it i see arizona having a ton of trouble scoring...cardinals have zero ability to stretch the field and because of that cant run the ball worth a lick...like the cleveland game i just dont see how they can score much here
brandon boykin better put on his big boy pants for this game cause hes gonna get a lot of action on short slot routes...in the end just dont let fitz go off and the cards arent eclipsing the 17 pt mark
i have no faith this is going to happen but andy reid has to practice big time patience this week and not abandon the run game...at times its going to look ugly agaisnt a good arizona front seven...but he needs to keep working it and not put the game on vicks shoulders...
arizonas defense is interesting in that it seems like at almost every position they either have a younger really talented type or veteran with a lot of wear and tear on his tires...
if vick can get a little time i believe their secondary can be taken advantage of...william gay stinks the two safeties are slow as shtein and as good an athlete as PP is he can be taken advantage of...id try to get him on a couple flag or up routes...but this is why they need to work on the ground so that they can use play action to get vick an extra second or two
i like the spot the offense fell into though in being able to play the 3-4 ravens defense a week before the cardinals 3-4 defense...more time prep time this week spent coming up with different way to actually beat the 3-4 rather than have to spend time on introducing it
im looking for a big retrun or two this week from special teams...damaris looked much more comfortable last week than in week one...both youthletes should have the game more firmly under them in week 3 and seattle torched arizona on ST in week 1...so im definitely keeping an eye out there
in the end the difference btwn this game and the cleveland game will be turnovers...eagles turn it over "only" once or twice and get out of there with a win to set up a monster prime time showdown bdawk special with the giants

Yes, keep giving Shady the ball and he's going to break one sooner or later. But, Reid is so damned hard headed, I mean, how many times has someone said the exact thing you've said here? It drives me friggen' bonkers. And it's not just a bunch of fans here on a message board saying it, you hear it everywere in the media also.

Well if anyone here has watched this team in the past 10 years, they'd know the Eagles drop a shtein one game and then are just as likely to throw up 30 points the next game. I'm not saying it'll happen, but this isn't a team where you'll have to see slow steady improvement before they compete in games against good teams.
rjs... That's a logical assumption but this team is capable of anything from a huge ass kicking to ridiculous loss like last week.
Except that the one thing that this team consistently does is fail against good DLs. The Ravens' front is a shell of its former self so don't feed me that crap. They can beat good teams. They do beat good teams. But they get shtein on by good DLs.
the giants who have had a really good dline for a while now are 1-7 against the eagles in their last eight games

michael vick gets crushed on the 3rd play of the game. nick foles comes in and throws a TD.
vick comes back for next series, gets sacked and leaves the game holding his ribs. foles comes in and throws another TD.
vick starts the second half, runs for 15 yards and comes up limping. nick foles leads them down the field for a shady TD.
foles finishes the game. other various TDs occur. Eagles win.

Eagles Defense scores Sunday night - Vick still throws 3 picks
ebs and flows....
29-24 birds
I wanted to let the week go by before picking because I didn't want the stank from Arizona to be a strong influence.
I think they show up, but I think they still lose late.....either giving up the go ahead score in the final minute or turning the ball over on the potential game winning drive.

Eagles actually covered the line at kickoff (-1 or -1.5 most places).
They are 3 to 3.5 point dogs this week. I do not like them getting Steelers in Pitt off a bye, but I also think the Steelers are not very good at all.
Eagles 24
Steelers 20
The Steelers are probably the one team in football who I have no fear against. I really do think the Eagles beat them in the Superbowl if we would have beat the Juggernaut known as the AZ Cardinals.
I think the Eagles make a statement this game. Not basing it on anything I've seen or any facts...just gut.
Eagles-38
Steel Magnolias- 20
This is the game the defensive starts to tally up the sacks. I'm thinking somewhere in the neighborhood of 6-10 sacks, and a ton of hits on Rothelololburger. That being said, it's another close one.

blowout city, vick has 4 picks and 2 fumbles.
PIT is getting Harrison and Polamalu back (Mendenhall too).
So Harrison will blow up Vick and break his ribs and then Polamalu picks him off in the process.
PIT OL is trash. I worry about the DBs against their WRs though.
Eagles still win.

even setting aside harrison, mendenhall, and polamalu coming back, this is an awful spot. pittsburgh at 1-2, needing a W badly, coming off a bye week, at home, after the eagles had a tough close game against a rival.

You disagree? Pittsburgh's O-line is atrocious.
they clearly arent going to get that many but i wasnt really disagreeing per se...i was just laughing at the notion of predicting 6-10 in a game as easily as if you were predicting shady was going to rush for 100 yards or something...
in 1100 all times games the eagles have had 10 sacks or more in exactly two of them...and when was the last time they even had 6?....steelers have been sacked six times total this year and the eagles have seven....90 - 91 - 92 eagle defenses had a combined total of four 6+ sack games
i think you are way underestimating how hard it is to get six sacks in a game....and while i think the eagles have an advantage when it comes to their DL vs the steelers OL i think atrocious is also a little strong in describing the steelers line
i think where the eagles have a huge advantage this game is against the steeler def....if vick was the least bit reliable there would be no question the eagles would pretty easily put up 30+ pts this game
This might be the game he breaks out and starts to get his confidence back and starts to settle and calm down.
If he wasn't running for his life after three steps on every dropback he might be able to get a wee bit more comfy.
The line can't protect him at all, so if they're smart they'll send one guy out and keep everyone else in to block. And that still might not be enough.
PS: My prediction will come later in the week. You all care.

i know its so easy to say but this simply isnt true
The Steelers o line must not be that atrocious considering Big Ben is having one hell of an efficient season so far. 2nd best passer rating and 4th best comp percentage at 40 attempts per game does not scream my oline sucks.
I mean look at Heath Miller all of a sudden again. A little sign that he doesn't have to stay in and block like he used to. If the Eagles knew how to effectively blitz diff story.
Still think this will be close but don't think Pitt loses at home here
24-19 Pitt
One thing that I thought the coaching staff did well was in the second half against the Giants, TE's and Backs were helping chip the ends and that helped a little...at least it didn't seem like the feast for all the Giants were having in the first half.
I don't know what feast for all means, but you get the point.

Does Vick even take three step drops, or five or seven for that matter? Seems like he backpedals 10 yards, doesn't see anybody open because he's short and too stupid to read a defense, and then either takes a sack or rolls out at which point he'll either get sacked or throw a pick.
lol yep, that's every Vick dropback

im not trying to make this a vick vs the line thing...vicks struggles have been duly noted...but he also has three long game winning drives...real game winning drives...not bedwetter specials with 11 minutes left in the game....and no other qb in the nfl can say that...
all im saying is that the line has been better and in many cases much better than a lot of people think
i thought the line was very good from the 2nd quarter on sunday, they struggled early and Vick had no time, but he also didn't force anything and just stayed patient, which is a huge change for him.
between Vick seeing blitzes better and making better decisions and the line adjusting and playing better it opened up the plays that he made later in the game.

Probably for the discussion thread at this point, but I didn't say 10 or more. Their tackles are weaksauce, Cole/Babin should have monster days.
yeah you said 6-10....which is ludicrous
shtein ill give you mad credit for the prediction if they get four or five

I think this is the game where Boykin does something amazing. He'll have a return of some sort, hopefully a pick 6.

if they win next week is a textbook andy reid stinkbomb before the bye...so basically the same as it ever was
ill say this: win the next two (huge win + avoiding typical no-show) im IN
They go into the bye 4-2 and I'll be excited. They win next week then put up a stinker and I'll be good with that and vice versa.
During some part of every Eagles season under Reid the team ceases playing like crap and resembles a decent football team. Last year it took longer than usual. This season if they can just stay afloat and get to that point we'll see what we've got.

If the Eagles lose and score below 24 points (which is the minimum anyone has scored against the Saints this season and which seven out of twelve of you think is going to happen), it's gotta be Vick's last game or there will be a full-scale fan revolt.
I'm with Deadspin on this one. (http://updates.deadspin.com/post/34837946472/signs-your-season-is-in-meltdown-starring-the)
QuoteFortunately for lovers of drama and schadenfreude, Philly's next game is the Monday nighter. A national TV audience gets to see what most expect to be Vick's last chance at keeping the starting job. This is the last requirement for a season meltdown: it must take place under the lights, in front of God and America.
Of course you know what's going to happen. The Eagles are playing New Orleans's dumpster fire of a defense, so Vick will throw for 300 yards and four scores, Philly will claw its way back to .500, and no changes will be made for months. Which would be the biggest disaster of all.
