I don't read a lot of what other people say here...

That's twice now you've said that you don't read what other people post, but yet you still keep posting.  That implies that you think we care what you have to say - more so, in fact, that what anyone else has to say.

News flash: if there was an ignore function on this board, you would be in the top 5 most ignored.  Do us a favor and pretend there is an ignore function and make your posts go away.
An ad hominem fallacy consists of asserting that someone's argument is wrong and/or he is wrong to argue at all purely because of something discreditable/not-authoritative about the person or those persons cited by him rather than addressing the soundness of the argument itself.

And yet, you continue to post here without reading anything that anyone writes. Living in a vacuum, thinking that you have anything to contribute. I used to live with a kid like that. You could have a conversation right across his face and he wouldn't have any idea that you were talking. Then five minutes later he'd just repeat everything back to you as though he just came up with it and expected you to to think that his ideas were somehow new or interesting or deserve a second thought. He got mocked a lot. Just like you. Put a sock in it, assface.

The fact is everyone here posts their "observations", and they're all pretty much the same damn things. Except for you, who just thinks "hey I can try and say something really really mean cause I'm a big icehole and it will be awesome!" When infact, you suck at life. And you care way too much what people on a message board think.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

Are you actually intending to write that to yourself?  Could you at least use your own terminology and insults instead of copying phrases like "you suck at life" verbatim from rjs, SunMo, and IGY?

Suck it up, Sally. rjs246's post was neither really really mean nor was it even really mean. I'll agree that he's as big an icehole as hbionic's is cavernous though.

So I'm sure this has been said several thousand times already but I haven't read any of the game threads so eat my ass...

This was the best coached game Andy Reid has put together in my memory. And yet he still somehow managed to single-handedly lose it at the end. AJ took the blame in the presser, but what the farg were they doing lofting a deep fade from the 29 with under 3 minutes to go and just 1 timeout? Even if they score there they give the Pats the ball with 3 timeouts, the 2 minute warning and Brady going for the win.  Absolutely awful. 56.25 minutes of coaching brilliance, all ruined by a massive brain-fart. What a douche.

Actually I thought the brain fart started when they took their second frivolous time out in the second half and continued from there...

I know Reid's been taking a beating here for this call, and that AJ should get a pass.  Here's my two cents.

Reid and Johnson had been aggressive and clever for the whole game.  Which was a beautiful change.  Why go for the stop and go and give the ball back with 3+ min? "Because we aren't scared of these guys".  I think Reid was trying to make a statement - that the Patriots are just guys;  get the lead, give it to the defense, and prove that the Eagles belong in the same arena.  AJ should've seen that the deep route wasn't open and dumped it off.  Hell, even take the sack.

We as a group here bash Reid endlessly for not having any balls.  Throwing for the quick score in that situation was incredibly ballzy.  I liked it.  If they score and the Pats roar back, I couldn't possibly be more pissed than I STILL am anyway, so why not?
Anyone but Reid.

OR...it was just a bad, quick reaction by a back-up QB, that could of easily check-downed or went to Reggie Brown on the other side. AJ was thinking "hero" and it got the best of him.

I didn't think that the timeouts were deserving of criticism at all. The Eagles didn't like what they saw when they lined up either time. Running the play as planned could have led to big mistakes, and the Patriots give you very little room for mistakes.

After the first 2nd half timeout, AJ Feeley threw a touchdown to Reggie Brown. After the second 2nd half timeout, Takeo Spikes tackled Kevin Faulk in the backfield. They took the time needed to get those plays right instead of farging them up.

If an Eagles-Patriots game comes down to the point where the Eagles need timeouts to win, the Patriots are going to win that 99% of the time anyway. No reason to hold onto timeouts in that game.

I agree that the long throw (or if you like, bad, quick decision by a backup QB), was AWFUL.  I also thought failing to call timeout after the questionable TD to Gaffney, giving the replay booth time to get their shtein together and call a review, was pretty lousy coaching.

Reid does not get a pass from me for this game (no pun intended), despite his success through the first 55 mins.

It was an an aggressive playcall. Everyone was expecting us to grind it out and go short.
If it had worked it would have been incredible.
The deep route was not open but the checkdown for the first down was. AJ channeled Farve and threw it to where he wanted the reciever to be and not where he actually was.
