7:38 and 2:42. Two of the reasons Andy should be fired at the end of the season

[Rome]

The only thing worse than watching that botched abortion of a game today was watching it sober.

I wish I was shteinfaced right now.

Oh, and firing Andy Reid is an idiotic sentiment.  I share it but that doesn't make it any less retarded.

[TexasEagle]

He puts up that facade on purpose.

That's encouraging.

I'd be more convinced that he cared more about losing if he actually tried to change his approach to the game so that they would do something to keep them from losing.

15 called runs and 34 attempted passes (plus another 5 McNabb scrambles for 38 if you want to count those) today - not like the team was down 30 points on a perfect day. They were down by 7 points for the majority of the day. What the hell happened to that so called "balance" that Reid was going to be working on this year?

[Rome]

I smell a road trip.  Anybody wanna go?

im down...my girls mother lives 20 minutes north of daytona....how far is that from clearwater

It's about a two and a half hour ride from Daytona to Clearwater if traffic is clear on the Interstate.  We usually leave early on Saturday morning and get to Clearwater and do a tailgate before the game.  Beers, food, music... the whole deal.  We stay over in Clearwater Beach after the game and then party at the beach bars until closing.

If you guys have never been, it's an amazing trip.  We had beers after the game last year with Sal Fasano and Larry Anderson at the Tiki Bar at the ball park.  L.A. can drink like a motherfarger...

Hey, I agree about the run. They should've run it way more than they did today. Way more. And when they go to Indy they need to pound it because the Indy run D blows. He has to adjust to what the defense is giving him.

But, like Ray Didinger said today, this whole notion that Andy doesn't care because he isn't ranting and raving in his PC (although he came damn close today) doesn't mean he doesn't care or is emotionless. He said that some people might've watched too many Knute Rockne speeches. This is the NFL. Andy coming out and blasting away doesn't make then play better or worse.

Fixing the problems, which is done in a team setting, is what'll help. And that is the only thing.

[TexasEagle]

I don't care if he rants and raves, I care that he doesn't fix the shtein that's wrong and rarely, if ever, has. Every week (year?) it's the same old shtein week in and week out. It's one thing to try something new and have it fail. It's something else to do the same shtein time after time and ignore what's not working.

Besides being a horrible game day coach it's that stubbornness that's so maddening.

It's like he's determined to make his shtein work come hell or high water no matter how many times it fails.

LOL, He reminds me of Joe Paterno........

pretty much

[Rome]

First down:  Long pass failed.

Second down: Screen pass dropped.

Third down: Run... 3 yards gained.

Fourth down:  Punt - 40 yards, 10 yard return.



That's what the last three games have felt like when the Eagles haven't gotten drives going.  Somehow, somewhere, someone has got to notice that the offensive gameplan is not working and has to be changed.

[SunMo]

so many threads....so much anger.

of all the games i've ever been to, of all the horrible losses...i've never left a game feeling as if i wasted my time, and that's what today felt like.  something felt off right from the start, the crowd wasn't into it, and neither was the team obviously.

Couldn't agree more.  My wife said as much as we were walking into the game today, that the regular atmosphere just wasn' there.  There were several times during the game that the Jags had the ball, and the Linc was silent.  Not quiet...silent.

Were this a one-game downer, I could somewhat accept that.  We now have pattern, and that is why AR needs to go at the end of the season.

[The BIGSTUD]

I would like to see Andy just run the ball 3 straight downs on the beginning of a drive for once. Even if it's 3rd and 7 still run the ball. Even if we don't make the first down and punt, when we get the ball back run 3 straight times again.

Just to show he's not farging afraid to do it. I don't even care if we don't pick up the first down. Just show you'll stick to the run.

[Don Ho]

farg it, i'm still pissed about last week.

watching Tony Romo play a fairly descent game this evening makes me more sick.  Not because he's on the cowboys but because he is an undrafted qb out of Eastern Illinois. 

BRING BACK TIMMY CHANG!

lol its not worth it. he also thinks mcnabb is fragile because he didnt publicly call out TO or basically act like TO does. we all know reid calling players our or having a dennis green or parcells like moment has any effect on the team and how u play. we have been 4-3 b4 with reid and we almost always have corrected but it seems like we wont this season. and i refuse to believe we won for so long in spite of reid...cause quite frankly we were never that talented offensively to do so. of course there are things he can improve and if the losing continues into next season ill be calling for a change also.

Your avatar makes me happy.  I'm still dying inside, but at least I know there is still hope in the world.

Speaking of which, your avatar is infuriating.  What can Brown do?  He can either get open and let the pass clang off of his fingertips, OR he can get open and have McNabb miss him by 5+ yards, OR he can just not bother getting open in the first place.  He's a triple threat!
