And here I was all excited to he the only one thinking this way.

I cannot lie:  I stole your opinion. 

Thank you.

With 2 extra days, he couldn't figure out Joe farging Webb...making his first farging Webbing start.

[SunMo]

young quarterbacks who can run are always a problem

how many farging times is Juqua Parker get shook out of his jock when he had Webb 1 on 1?

[QB Eagles]

Didn't one of the defensive guys say during the week that they were preparing for Favre? So I guess they were waiting the whole game for the lame duck ball to pick off, and it never came.

[phillymic2000]

This whole gameplan was a fargin joke, offense and defense. Refargindiculous!!

I counted 4 but it might have been more. Parker's worst game as an Eagle.

if they were game planning for joe webb then they have bigger problems than any of us can even imagine

The offensive gameplan last night was just f'ing awful. Teams are obviously throwing the kitchen sink at Vick and he was obviously off his game. The best thing to do to curb that is to run the ball right at the defense. I'm not as gun ho about Reid's Run/Pass ratio these days as I used to be, but last night against an inferior opponent he needed to run.

[smeags]

ahhhhh yes, when something was really on the line reid and company once again come through with flying colors.

he could have run more but the blitzes were also killing the run game not just the pass...when shady got the ball most times there was like three vikings flying in behind the line of scrimmage...better blocking would help...picking up blitzes i would imagine will be a center of attention in practice over the next week and a half

what the farg has happened to the eagles screen game...if there is anywhere the eagles miss the bedwetter this might be the place...vick doesnt sell the screen nearly as well as donnie....for the most part their screen execution has sucked this year....and because of that they now run them a lot less

[SD]

Teams are covering the Eagles deep and bringing pressure because they know Vick likes to scramble and the Eagles like to throw the ball deep. If the run game isn't working the best way to exploit this is to focus on the middle routes, hope for some YAC, and start hitting check downs until the defense adjusts. On the drives where the Eagles actually moved the ball this is what they did. I see nothing wrong with moving the ball this way but the Eagles keep airing it out 30 yards down field. When they focus on moving the chains and not scoring a big TD on every play they're decent (when Vick doesn't fumble).

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I would have thought Celek and Avant would have had a lot of open space in the 8-15 yard range in the middle of the field as well.  I can only hope that the lack of adjustment is some sort of ploy to throw off their wild-card round opponent in film study.

[mussa]

Exactly, they didn't start 3 step passing until second half. Its so frustrating to be able to see what the D is throwing at them and then they do absolutely nothing to adjust until its too late. In the meantime Vick is getting hammered out there, this has been going on ever since the Bears game. They need to hit the receivers quick and just stop the half ass play action nonsense. Every fargin coach in the league knows they can't help themselves when it comes to the pass play and the big pass play. This kind of bullheaded faith based coaching will lead to another epic failure in the playoffs. The only difference this year has been Mike Vick and his ability to run for the 1st. Nothing has changed otherwise. There is no reason to praise Reid, he's the same old idiot, he's just riding a better horse.

I thought the vikings defense put more of a press coverage on the outside no? I could be wrong. I saw them blitzing the edge with a corner with the LB's either containing the 2 gaps or having one blitz with the other in coverage.

Yeah you leave over top the LB's exposed to the TE and slot receiver, but the Vikings could afford to give that up because of the front 4 pressure. Marty better adjust real quick because this is turning into an easy trend for the good defenses and a new hip for Vick.
