I was wondering why Akers got the game ball and that reminded me...it was because of being the longest tenured Eagle as of last night.

Good call.

Great video.

QuoteI'm still not sure why Andy Reid and Marty Mornhinweg allowed Vick to take so much punishment. They could've run the ball more in this game, but that's nothing new.

And Im not sure how many years EVERYONE needs to see this BUT Reid.

and from that same link:

Quote
What I couldn't tell: If Schaub actually got hit in the helmet by Joselio Hanson on that fourth-down play, which would have warranted a flag and produced a first down. Schaub and Gary Kubiak certainly thought there was a missed call.

Really dude? There wasn't any contact made with his helmet at all. None. Go suck off Theismann a little more.

And that would only be payback for the non-call when Andre Johnson threw Patterson 5 yards

I was thinking the 2 late hits, or 2 facemask non-calls on Vick

Reid and the Eagles are in the process of asking the league why they protect QBs but not Vick.

Was working Thursday night so I had to dvr the game and finally got to watch last night.

These dropped passes in the end zone have got to stop. Vick could have been a little more accurate on the one for Celek but Celek needs to lay out for that one. Speaking of Celek, it's about time he made an appearance. Couple of catches and his 3rd down conversion in the 4th qtr was big.

Oline play is getting better as the year goes on. They gave Vick some solid protection and Peters has been playing the last month or so like the player we were hoping for. 

Red Zone offense was much better this week than the last few games. Settling for a FG off the Laws int was bad though. Turning turnovers into points is good, unless your starting position in inside the 20.  Gotta walk away with 6 there.

Reid passing on 3rd and 11 in the 4th qtr was typical Reid. Houston only has one time out left so rather than run the ball and make them use it, he lets them save it for when they are on offense.  I heard a lot of people bitching on the radio for the last 2 days about how Shady only had 12 carries, but I didn't have a problem with that.....when you're facing the 31st ranked pass defense in the league, you should throw all day on them. At the same time though, you still gotta make smart play calls late in the game. This was one of those games where the amount of carries wasnt as important as the timing of those carries.  Reid had over 3 and a half quarters to air it out....gotta run the clock out there.

Red zone defense is terrible and the 3rd quarter was pathetic. But kudos to boy wonder on a solid 4th quarter that gave the offense a chance to retake the lead and put the game away.

Joe Theisman is the Andy Reid of commentating. He's been doing it for so long you can't help but wonder why he hasn't fixed himself yet. Christ he sucks something hard. Kudos to Millen for punking him a couple times during the broadcast.

Just a random thought here, but is it possible that Celek needs some Ricky Vaughn correctional lenses?  Brent straight up whiffed on this pass when the ball was about a foot in front of him.  I know it is wishful thinking that all the starting TE needs is some Lasik, but damn, can he even see the ball?
