Eagles/taterskins Talk

[The BIGSTUD]

Why the hell was McNabb wearing his little mittens in 60 degree weather?

[Rome]

He didn't want to get chicken grease and watermelon juice on his hands.

See what I did there?

[ice grillin you]

it was so funny watching the mcnabb plead with the ref that his arm was going forward and thus they should keep the ball

ummm it was an interception big guy not a fumble and there are still no ties in the superbowl

[Tomahawk]

Regardless, Turner will run rampant on this D.

I doubt it - Turner had 12 carries for only 33 yards against a horrible Bucaneers rush defense. Gonzalez will probably have 20 catches for 236 yards and 3 TDs

He was doing that before he even knew it was picked off

replay on NFL Network Tuesday at 8 ET

lol....I wanted to kill myself a couple of times and almost had about three heart attacks during that game.

I don't think I'll be watching.

My little insight about the onside kick is this.
When this team scores, it doesn't seem like yards-to-goal matters. The big play is obviously not their problem, more like converting third downs, short yardage and red zone. It almost seems like sometimes DJack works better with 70 yards in front of him.
That means that they are taking an obvious risk to alleviate a problem that they don't really have.
I mean it's not that logical, but it just seems like to me that when they score, they can do it from anywhere on the field, and when they don't have it together it doesn't matter what their field position is.
Also, the pattern on special teams this year has been:
suck, suck, suck, Djack! (repeat)
so i don't know why they were so confident that they could get it done.

[mussa]

I don't think DJack gets the ball enough

[methdeez]

I don't think Vick gets the ball enough

i think youre overanalyzing it....they tried the onside kick for one reason and one reason only...because they saw something on film that led them to believe it would work

the sad thing is it did work, minus Joe Mays running in front of the play, and touchign the ball, making it bounce wide, and Gocong taking a horrible route towards the ball.  Engineer needs to learn angles

[ice grillin you]

so it worked except the part about recovering the ball

i think thats what i'm going with
