C'mon, do you seriously think that if the Eagles came back to win, the coaching staff would think everything's okay, and not go back and look at went wrong in the first half? Anyone who believes that has a severely distorted idea of how the National Football League works. Every coach, no matter how zesty, goes back and looks at the mistakes even after a dominating win.

uhhh....11 of the first 12 plays andy called today were passes....and that's after last week's game where the offense stunk because of no running game.

I noticed that several of those plays near the beginning were called run plays that McNabb audibled into pass plays after taking a look at the defense.

No way of knowing for certain if it was a run play or not. Could have been a formation to show run and then motion into pass. Who knows?

I would just love to see Andy run the ball next week on 1st 2nd and 3rd down. I know he won't but do it to send a message.

What is this guy's deal this year? I'm sick of his smug attitude. This is not rcoket science it's common sense. They blitzed every down.

RUN THE BALL!

75% of the loss is Andy's fault. The 3 and outs got the defense dead tired. Then they got torched. This defense can't be on the field every minute after a 3 and out.

1st, 2nd, AND 3rd? Todays run/pass ratio was 17/36. If you add in McNabb's runs, or the audibles in the beginning which were possibly runs, its 20/35ish. Take in the fact they were down TWENTY-EIGHT TO ZERO, he did alright. If you noticed today, he did do a couple run on 1st and 2nd downs, it worked out well.

Horay! We've kept up the tradition of getting our asses kicked by one AFC team every regular season!

I have one question. When the Eagles and taterskins play next Sunday Night, who do you think will be more pumped up? The taterskins just came off a total ass whipping, as well as the Eagles. We got shut out by 36, you lost by 27. I think that next week will be a total ass kicking fest from both teams. Both teams will be pumped up.

This will be the first game to end in negative points.

the skins defense will own the birds offense...that goes without saying...hopefully tho their o will be pathetic again

They waited until they were down 28-0 to run. Stop looking at the numbers. It was too late by then, the game was over.

2nd and 7 and or 8 and they pass the ball EVERY time...does andy not know the odds of picking up a third and 3 or four compared to a 3rd and 8

in that situation no one is asking that you get a first down with a run...but when its 2nd and seven even if you just gain three yards on a run you got 3rd and four and a high % chance of getting the first....keeps the defense off balance as the possibility of another run or even a screen exists..compared to 3rd and eight where you know its a pass and the blitz is coming

Stop using logic, damn it!

You guys know the funny thing? This could be the Eagles last good year in a LONG time. With the potential of TO and Westbrook possibly leaving, then next year we won't win 5 games without those players. I'm not jumping the gun yet, but something to keep in mind. If the Eagles don't make it to the playoffs this year, it could be the end of the Eagles dominance for another 10 years until we get great again. You never know.

Thrash. Pinkston. Autrey.
