Around The NFL -- Week 15

[The BIGSTUD]

Great play by Smith! TD throw to Gore after avoiding the sack.

Points for me. And SEA is going to lose...helps the Eagles.

Helps Dallas too which only makes it feel halfway good.

[BigEd76]

Nice fake 

24-7

[QB Eagles]

Man that had to be embarrassing for Seattle. Got totally taken in by that naked bootleg.

[BigEd76]

Branch just got JACKED UP

personal foul too

[BigEd76]

24-14 final

Seattle got swept by San Fran

[The BIGSTUD]

Every time I think the Eagles suck, all I need to do is watch some NFC action to remind me that us being bad is in the norm these days.

[MDS]

9 points for Branch. I'm pleased. He's been unproductive this year, but not everyone in the family can be a breadwinner. Just ask mpmcgraw.

Thank god the birds drafted Moats and not Gore

Thank god the birds drafted Moats and not Gore 

Gore was taken 12 picks ahead of Moats.

This isn't like a Freddie Mitchell / Reggie Wayne / Chad Johnson / Steve Smith thing, where the Eagles actually could have taken any of those Pro Bowl players instead.

No matter.  Gore would be inactive every week then. 

[Seabiscuit36]

they traded up for Herremans...  The sad part is draft day i really thought the birds would draft gore since he had an extended stay at the novacare before the draft.  He had the bad knees that andy looks for.

Could've had Marion Barber though.

I hope DH took the under.

NFL HOOKS UP GIANTS, EAGLES FOR COWBOYS GAME

Later today, the Dallas Cowboys and the Atlanta Falcons will play in a game televised only on the NFL's in-house network.  With the Cowboys leading the NFC East at 8-5, the 7-6 Giants and 7-6 Eagles are keenly interested in the game.

But there's a problem.  The Giants and Eagles, who play on Sunday at the Meadowlands, are staying at hotels in North Jersey that don't get the league's in-house network, since the league's in-house network generally isn't available on cable systems in North Jersey.

The hotels, we're told, are wiring banquet rooms with DirecTV so that the Eagles and Giants can watch the game.

And the NFL is footing the bill.

[BlueHeart]

Very cool.
