The observation thread

[rjs246]

He'll get hurt whether he gets a new contract or not. It's part of his yearly cycle. He still needs to be paid.

Gold - Standard

The Birds FO will run Westbrook to hold-out and then right out of town. This would not surprise me one bit.

Sal Pal with the conspiracy theories on DNL....wants to know why Banner declared that Reid will be the coach but used a double negative when describing McNabb's situation.  He was going nuts because Banner said "I can't envision a situation where Donovan won't be our QB next year" instead of saying "McNabb will be the QB".  f'ing Sal

[ice grillin you]

its not a conspiracy its out there for everyone to see...banner left it wide open for mcnabb to not be the qb next year...as of thursday dec 6, 2007 he couldnt envision a scenario where mcnabb isnt the qb...lets see if a scenario where he isnt the qb arises say april 6, 2007

banner had to come out in support of mcnabb...if he doesnt mcnabb goes into hissy fit mode and the shtein blows up big time...but once the season ends all bets are off

banner did what every good politician does...made a strong statement while at the same time leaving plenty of wiggle room

[ice grillin you]

ok so the eagles have a better shot at the playoffs than we think...even if they lose to dallas

lets assume they lose to dallas and win their other three games and end at 8-8

they have five teams they are competing with for the last spot

detroit 6-6 = done....injuries have ended them and they still have dallas and gb left...plus eagles have a tie break over them

taterskins 6-7 = done....two words todd collins

arizona 6-6 = biggest problem as they are a game ahead and the birds have no tiebreak...still have to go to sea and have a huge game at no...its essential that the saints win this game

minn 6-6 = playing well right now and have a failry easy schedule but the birds hold the tie break and only have to tie them

saints 5-7 = done...reggie bush out for the year tough schedule and the birds play them head to head



anyone on this bandwagon with me?

[SunMo]

Joe Banner just read that and pushed the big red button in his office that prints out playoff invoices

Wow. That seriously is terrible. The other options were:

I can envision a situation where Donovan won't be our QB next year.
I can't envision a situation where Donovan will be our QB next year.

Both options are the same. Banner said the right thing. Sal is a farging retard.

[phillymic2000]

McNabb is the talk in Chicagoland, especially now that sexy rexy is gone for the year. Everyone keeps on asking me about it. I am just telling them it sounds like a done deal just to get their hopes up, the smile it brings to their face makes me laugh.

[Cerevant]

Let me paraphrase for those who don't understand what Sal is talking about:

"I can't think of a reason to trade McNabb, but I'm working on it"

[ice grillin you]

so a little review of the games that effect the eagles playoff run and their importance

wash or chi loses - very important - check

phi beats nyg - ultra important
sea beats arz - ultra important
dal beats det - very important
sf beats minn - not important
atl beats no - not important

[Diomedes]

I like this bandwagon.  I'm on.

Go Eagles.

[Rome]

Die, playoffs, die.
