Giants/Eagles Pre-game Talk

[reese125]

I expect ALOT of underneath passing to Shockey and Tiki out of the backfield which spells trouble if they dont get a pass rush. The Eagles were piss poor early in the game and it was very discouraging

The LB's were a major concern before the season started and they are a concern after 1 game with the Texans. It was obvious that the OL of the Texans wore down as the game progressed, and we took advantage midway through the 3rd quarter. Hope that we can do that again, because if the Giants jump out of the gates early, it will be tough playing catchup against that offense

what ever happened to will peterson?

He was released earlier in the year.  Some sort of  stress fracture in the vertebrae that kept re-occuring did him in.  I'm not sure, but I think he did retire after being let go.......

As for Sunday?    Who knows?

As has been the case far to often over the years it's going to depend on what Giants team shows up.  Last night was a perfect example of Giants football........a game where they held their own against one of the elite teams in the league, but end up losing because they shot themselves in their collective feet.

What should have been sure INT's  were dropped  thus allowing  three different Indy scoring drives to continue..........Three dropped INTS = 13 points for the Colts.....add to the mix several unforced bone head mistakes:  game over.

If the Giants come out clicking on all cylinders  they win.  If they come out and continue to make unforced errors the Eagles are going to punish them.

yeah because the eagles could never come out and just straight up beat such a superior team as the giants

exactly

Sure.

Funny.  That's exactly how I feel about the Eagles.

The Eagles D is gonna' have to suck it up and knock Eli on his ass. This is a perfect example of why Reid drafted a D-lineman first, because we need to get to the quarterback. We need a big game from the whole line, Bunkley, Patterson, and Kearse in particular. It's time for some good old NFC smashmouth football. If the D doesn't get to Eli and put him to the turf, we lose this game. It's that simple. This is the perfect game to show the fans at their home stadium that the Eagles are back on top of the NFC East.

I think with a healthy Bwest on the field, McNabb won't have too much of a problem getting the ball in the end zone. I'd say it's going to take at least 24 pts. to win this game.

It would be soooo nice to put last years division winners down 0-2.

The Eagles are going to punish the Eagles if they make unforced errors!

the giants have more cylinders than any team in the league

Especially in Strahan's locker.

Eagles may need to give McCoy some help or possibly start Barber this weekend. If Brandon Jacobs runs at him he will get flattened like a pancake. Eagles also need to spy on TIki and those damn screen and swing passes they like to give him.

Tackling is all about leverage and getting a guy like jacobs is going low and cutting his legs out.

Eagles need to throw in some gadget plays to keep the Gints off of Westbrook, use Westy as more of a decoy.

[ice grillin you]

why do the eagles need to use gadget plays to get westbrook off...westbrook healthy is just as dangerous as tiki....no way you use him as a decoy...the eagles are gonna key on tiki and the giants on westbrook and the team that executes the best and get their rb lose has a good chance of winning.....

[phillywin2k5]

Eagles need production from the other 3 WRs to keep them in this game. Should activate Avant as he seems more agressive in getting the ball when thrown to him.
