Positives amidst all the negativity

[MadMarchHare]

Really?

[Feva]

(click) Yeah.

[Magical_Retard]

my positives? we are still 4-2 and first in the nfc east. at the end of the season i think we can still have the 2nd best record in the nfc and at the very least be in the playoffs.

[Drunkmasterflex]

I shtein on positivity, especially after failure.  It's for Hoydas.  Washington lost, but so did the goddamned Eagles.  Meanwhile, Dallas and NY won.  Man up and embrace the fact that this team is a pretender, not more.  Otherwise, they'd have beat the Saint.  And the Giants.  I have no reason to believe it's going to get any better in the coming weeks.

It's still Reid at head coach, isn't it?  He'll still pull the same dumb farg plays out of his fat ass, won't he?  I see no reason to feel good today. 

And I'm not gonna apologize for it, either.

I agree, I am so sick of Andy Reid, I really wish we could have a different HC.  The thing that bothers me the most is that he hardly ever coaches well in big games. 

[MadMarchHare]

Honestly, I don't know that he doesn't "coach"well.  The problem is when his gameplan doesn't work.  If he installs an effective gameplan, it's lights out.  If the opponent stops his gameplan, he's totally lobotamized, drooling on his fat ass on the sideline.

He's a horrible game day coach.  Just awful.  Addicted to the pass, never heard of clock management.  Can't tell a good WR or LB from a pile of dog shtein.

Otherwise I think he's great.  Gets players to buy in, play like a team, etc.   He's stable, his teams are always competetive, even when they suck.  I'll take 6-10 "off" years any day compared to what happens to other teams when they have lousy coaches.  See Oakland, for example.

I'm torn between sticking by him, figuring that if he keeps the team relatively competetive, maybe they'll win despite his idiotic game calling.  Or just wanting him gone.

Couldn't agree more.  He has brought unprecedented long-term success to the Eagles but his stubbornness is infuriating.  Run the farging rock Andy, draft a LB in the first round.

Drinking too much Lonestar?

Drinking too much Kool-Aid?

Thats exactly how I feel, only it is the day after a loss so I want him to go.  The thing is his formula of passing that much will not work.  There has never been a Super Bowl winning team that passes this much.

passing too much or reid really didnt cost us the game this time. it was the defense. we finally have a damn good offense and now our defense is average to mediocre.

[The BIGSTUD]

Who cares if he doesn't run. We have the #1 offense in the league. We'll probably need to run the ball effectively sooner or later, but we'll cross that road when we get to it. For now the defense just isn't playing well.

Way too much blame on Reid right now. He is a top 5 coach in this league. I wouldn't want anyone else but Belichick coaching this team right now.

[SunMo]

he's a top 5 coach?  maybe until Sunday, then he falls back to bottom 10

[The BIGSTUD]

Sundays are where the games are won and Andy has one of the best win percentages in NFL history. Andy is under a microscope because he is the head coach of the Eagles, but every fan base questions their coaches play-calling after every loss. We just don't follow all other 31 teams under a microscope.

Case in point: The Cowboys scored 3 points in the second half last week against the Eagles. They stopped running the ball pretty much the entire 3rd quarter. All coaches have trouble adjusting in games. Andy wins ball games and that is all that matters.

I know, I am just venting some frustration today.
