Covering the spread would be a moral victory.  This one'll be ugly.

And all you's thinking they'll score a TD are on crack.

Pats, 63-6.
Anyone but Reid.

QB Eagles

This game should be enjoyable no matter what. The Eagles come into the game with zero expectation of success. If the Eagles get steamrolled, it'll be fun to watch the clinic the Pats are putting on against some of our least favorite Eagle players and to be part of their historic season. If it's a close game by any stretch, it will be a statement game for the Eagles. If the Eagles somehow win, it would be fall-down hilarious. If key Patriots get injured, I'll be laughing also. Key Eagles get injured... who cares, this season isn't going anywhere anyway.

I should be able to derive fun from this game as long as there isn't a career-ending injury to Westbrook.

Siran Stacy has a better chance of winning the Daytona 500 than the Eagles do winning this game.

QuoteDOTHAN, Ala. (AP) -- A van driven by former University of Alabama football star Siran Stacy was struck by a pickup truck at an intersection, killing six people, including Stacy's wife and four of his children, state toopers said Tuesday.
   Trooper Sgt. Tracy Nelson said the driver of the pickup was on the wrong side of the road when it struck Stacy's van on the passenger side around 11 p.m. Monday.
   Houston County Coroner Robert Byrd said the Stacy van, going north on Alabama Highway 123, had stopped at a red light at the intersection of U.S. 84, about six miles west of Dothan.
   "The light turned green and they proceeded to cross the road" when hit by the other vehicle, Byrd said. "It was a small pickup truck headed west, but it was in the eastbound lane."
   "He hit them broadside, T-boned them at the intersection there," Byrd said.
   Nelson said investigators are trying to determine what caused the truck to be in the wrong lane of the four-lane U.S. 84.


I am probably missing something here, as I usually do, seeing I've been gone for awhile, but the account of the accident points none of the blame towards Stacey, who is lying in serious condition with 4 of his five children and his wife dead. What did he do wrong?

Eagles 27, Patriots 17

Hey guys. Pats fan here (so feel free to blast away). Like you guys, I don't see this one being close. Pats are playing at too high a level and the Eagles have too many question marks. It's a home game for the Pats although this year location hasn't really factored much into the equation. I'd guess a final score of 38-14, which is just about the average for Pats.

I like the Eagles a lot. I grew up an Eagles fan a few miles west of Philly (in Media). Moved to Boston in 1990 and it wasn't until the 2003 SB when I finally had to make a choice between the two teams. I still root for the Eagles second. Andy Reid has been great at keeping the Eagles at a consistent competitive level but I've been frustrated at his lack of in-game adjustments and weird blind spot when it comes  to seeing the need for a quality WR corps. Buddy Ryan IMHO is still the best coach the Eagles ever had. Belichick reminds me  of him in certain ways, not in the Xs and Os but in the us against the world, go for the throat and never let up mentality.

'Lo there, Ed. They miss you over on the Panthers board. Tough year fer Iggles fans. Westbrook deserves better support than what he's gotten from the birds FO these past few years. Fingers crossed that Nova gives Philly fans something to smile about this season.

Pats - 14
Eagles - 13.

Pats will rape us.

Pats 69 - Birds 9

...and McNabb dies.  I feel sorry for what's about to happen to him, he's going to get slaughtered and Reid won't do a god damn thing to help him.  ...and the Pats will continue to rape him until he's injured (again)

Eagles should just double Randy, single everyone up, pray, and blitz everyone trying to kill Tom Brady.  Knock his farging head off.  Only way there is hope.  Throw bombs every play and throw them short praying for pass interference.  Bruschi will probably end the game with 4 sacks. 

We barely beat the farging jets with a zesty qb and squeaked by the god damn miami dolphins.  the farging miami dolphins!
Pass.  Pass. Pass. PUNT.  No pro bowl WR's.  Pass. Pass. Pass. PUNT.  Retarded special teams.  Pass. Pass. Pass. PUNT.  "I've got to do a better job."  Pass. Pass. Pass. PUNT.  Running game shines for 3 plays. Pass. Pass. Pass. PUNT.  No adjustments anywhere.  Pass.  Pass. Pass. PUNT.  (repeat)

positives from the game will be: the calls from the ref saying the QB's arm was going forward (not bad for on the road)

negatives from the game will be: if McNabb plays, he generally won't attempt passes of more than 7 yards, with a 50% completion.  If AJ plays he will be knocked out. If Kolb comes in he will throw up, showing that it could happen to anybody really.


Pats 41
Eagles 20

Oh, and if the Pats pull one of their "go for it on 4th down" when they have a 20+ point lead, watch for Reid to lose his cool in the presser.
An ad hominem fallacy consists of asserting that someone's argument is wrong and/or he is wrong to argue at all purely because of something discreditable/not-authoritative about the person or those persons cited by him rather than addressing the soundness of the argument itself.

It'll be a clearing-the-throat bonanza!

The scenario being painted is pretty bad. The Eagles down big, and the Pats DLine pinning their ears back and coming hard at a gimpy McNabb looking downfield and seeing no one to throw to (except maybe LJ who has shook his defender by lulling him to sleep with contract talk). Reid leaves McNabb in to get crushed, he finds the nearest Patriot likely to hit him, and hurls himself in that direction, and so ends an era. I still have hope that Jimmy Johnson and the Defensive side will rise to the occasion. We have shut down Moss time after time in the past. The key is getting to Brady before coverage breaks down. They have no great running game, Brady is not a scrambler, its all about the time Brady has and the accuracy of his throws. Grant it, most of the defensive teams who have faced him this year had the same plan, but at the end of the game couldn't pick Brady out of a police lineup because they never got a good look at him. Shake him up, harrass the receivers, get them off their game. The defense and the running game thrive on the passing game for New England.

Sidebar: Didn't we play a three point Superbowl against these guys a few years ago? Now we are 23.5 point underdogs? How do two management staffs make decisions that differently?

anyway, the point spread alone should motivate the Eagles. If this game were in the Linc, it would give us a better shot, but this can be done.

Take the points, and the canolis.
