Yes we lost. Yes, there were still alot of things that I didn't agree with in terms of defensive play calling and some offensive plays.


But this is one of the few games I've seen in recent years that the team, from top to bottom, coaches to players, played all 60 minutes.

Defensively they didn't roll over. They were going to let Welker beat them, not Moss. Offensively, other than for a few miscues, they came out like they didn't care what the Patriots have done this year so far.

These guys showed heart. These guys played like men. I wish the Eagles would game plan every game like they did this one. It seemed like the staff was prepared, and they generally executed.

It really gave me refreshed confidence in Reid and co. and this team. Now, I know alot of you would probably expect that, probably more so coming off a win...but I honestly wish we would see this side of Reid more often than his other side we are used to.

Sheppard and Brown did a general good job tonight. I know there are things there they did that cost us, but they came with their 'A' game.

The loss sucked. It was the Superbowl all over again. But I was proud to see us not go down like other teams have and let the Patriots pound them. We made them sweat a little tonight. Whether that carries over for the rest of the season will be up to the players. But, they came out and showed me more than I expected. I heart the Eagles.

Let's hope we can finish the season 10-6 and make a run at the playoffs.

Go Eagles.

We is damn right. This is Philly's team more than Lurie's. The team has been here long before Lurie and will be here long after he is gone. Same with every player on that roster.

We is the only correct term to use.

a really gay post from a really gay poster. great.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Aren't you supposed to be on your honeymoon? Go circumcise your husband with your teeth.

For the record, I wasn't going to watch them the rest of the way if they played like a bunch of Hoydas. They didn't, so they deserved a gay, sappy, 'i'm love the eagles' post from me.

well ive never been ashamed to be eagles fan. i love the fact they put up a fight and were one bad play away from pulling off the biggest upset in football history.

but also im pissed that they can not get this amped and be this ready to play each week. if andy is really going to go all out he needs to call the trick plays like he did last night. just go all out. what do you have to lose now?

also westbrook should have been returning punts all night. not just the last one.

I'm not sure I'm ready to put Westbrook out there on punts.  It isn't all Reed's fault the return game sucks.  The blocking is abominable.
Anyone but Reid.

after several beers yesterday i realized that there was no way i could not put money on the eagles +25.  it's one of the better drunk decisions i've made in a while.

Exactly.  Through the whole game last night, I kept screaming, "Where the farg has this team been all year?"  It's a farging shame that Andy & Co. haven't got this team ready to play like that all year... and haven't been that aggressive all year.  Let's be real.  If he had... GB is a W, CHI is a W, WSH is a W... and not getting his team prepared to play is one of the many reasons he's gotta go.
