Eagles/Saints Talk

[Drunkmasterflex]

This game was a tale of two halves.  You can't turn the ball over deep in your own territory two times in a row against an offense like the Saints.  They actually played o.k. game went kind of how I expected though.   Kolb had a decent game, it would have been completely different with McNabb  in there.

absolutely pathetic effort by the defense, especially on 3rd down.  the corners were awful and the tight ends ran free all day.  the offense wasn't awful, but it wasn't good enough to win either.  special teams farging the defense in the ass all day didn't help things.

Kolb sucks.

I don't give a shtein how many yards he had. If anyone's opinion changed for the better for him today, well...you suck too for being stupid.

I don't think anyone was saying he looks like a #1 QB or anything. He showed he wasn't a complete waste. To me he went from "get him the farg off the team" to "I might wait a bit more til I think he needs to get the farg off team".

worst analysis ever.   

don't get me wrong, i don't think kolb will ever be a top tier qb in the nfl but if nothing else, he showed the potential to be a servicable backup.  he'll never justify being a #2 pick though and should still probably get the gas face.

but anyone pinning this loss on kolb is either blinded by hatred of him, an idiot or a combo of both. 

[PhillyGirl]

Not pinning it on him at all. Did I type that without my knowledge?

Nothing he did today made me think he was any better than I did before the game. That's all I'm saying.

Pretty sure you and everyone else on the board (me included) were sure he was going to be the reason the Birds lost. For the most part, he played as well as a person could expect for a guy getting his first start after only a week of playing with the first team. Do I think the dude could have done more? Maybe. Could you make the argument that he was the only guy that kept them in the game for awhile? Absolutely.

[Drunkmasterflex]

The Kolb hatred is ridiculous, is he a good quarterback? No. But he is not nearly as bad as people make him out to be.  For a Qb drafted in the 2nd round he is alright.  There aren't many franchise guys taken in round 2.  He had a decent performance today nothing more, nothing less. 

[SunMo]

no, he is the worst human ever to touch a football and deserves to die...DUH

[Don Ho]

Farg on the post game now. "We didn't do very well". "Kold will start next week if McNabb isn't ready" A reporter asked if they will bring in a punter to challenge Rocca, Reid said "we'll see".

Rocca punted like shtein today.  Giving a potent offense like the Saints a short field is sure death.  Brees looked like he was salivating all day.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Terrible.

1. Special Teams
2. Penalties
3. Defense
4. Turnovers

All in all a solid day for farg ups. They lost the game in the last two minutes of the first half and the two possessions into the second half.

Blantant holding/hands to the face call on Cole missed
Ellis Hobbs coughing it up
Dumb farg throwing an out route to a LB with ONE career INT.

Give the Saints a short field and goodnight Irene. shtein, those clowns can go 99yds in 2 plays...putting them inside the 35 two times ina row is a locked up 14 points.

[General_Failure]

Good to see you guys giving the defense even a half of a shot after this past game. 

44 points? Come on.

I'd give this defense a shot if McDougle was still around.

That is the most ridiculous statement you've ever made.

[shorebird]

Yeah, he's not much of a qb, so he deserves to die.

[SunMo]

you're awesome at sarcasm
