    I hope the eagles are smart enough to keep reid around.

    exactly. because a coach good enough to just make the playoffs every year should get a lifetime contract

    i will never understand people who blindly support a coach who has won nothing... for a decade and a half.

    who knows? maybe he figures it out in year 13. :thumbup:

    It took Cowher 14 years to do it for the Steelers thru 13 years he was 8-9 in the playoffs with a loss to the Cowboys where he literally did everything right against a far superior team and lost because of Neil O'Donnell and his WRs having poor communication. Andy Reid has taken the Eagles to the Playoffs 9 times in 12 years...there is hope for the Dream Team yet. Of course then he will retire and you guys will get some black coach that was my MA/PhD advisor's former Master's student at Memphis to get them to the promised land in 2 (much to the chagrin of The Fixer...j/k), and they will forever be known as the "American Dream Team". Uh oh someone's been on AMT a bit too much lately.

    On an important side note your Towson Tigers are 6-1 (6-0 FCS with a win in a game on a 61 yard pass on 4th and 29) and facing a Delaware team that they haven't beaten since Joe Flacco was their QB, and has abused them like Miami did to Suck U after McNabb rolled them 66-10 in his senior year.

    On an even more important side note any get PJ20 beer in Phiwwy yet? Still no go here.

    Hey man it's the American Dream Team vs. America's Team week gotta twist the knife a little. So who's gonna win this weekend and why?

    Personally I see the Cowboys by 7+ if Orlando Scandrick's effort against 5' 3" WRs a few weeks back wasn't a mirage, Murray/Jones is a more successful tandem than whatever dolts the Republicans dig up for the Presidential election (damn it AMT stop), Witten does Witten things (I'm stuck with the fucker so I gotta root for him) and at least one of the three WRs get something against you guys.

    Conversely, the Eagles blow out the Cowboys because Reid spent all last week actually fixing things, and they shut us down on offense. The Vick goes nutso.

    For whatever reason I don't see this game being close (maybe I'm just happy there wasn't a close game for the first time in 3 months of Cowboys football last week).

    dick vermeil as well

    like I've been saying for 3 years now. show me a better candidate and I'll endorse him.

    Reid has been great for the franchise. McNabb was a loser. Reid's biggest flaw was keeping that bum around too long (the guy Jeagler was so pissed reid traded to a division rival)

    Restore the Roar brother. Love that Towson is back on the map

    I posted the 4th and 29 play in the phils thread (ya gotta keep up with that one...this is the B-team thread...until the phils start losing again and no one but me, jearlpam, and johnny care about them anymore, like pre-2008). the dude that caught the pass...philly boy. holla

    honestly, I think birds win by 10+. I think they go up early, dallas makes a late run, and the eagles score a late TD to seal the deal. eagles win 38-27. game isn't as close as the score

    rob ryan is so embarrassed after the game that he shaves his head and promises not to speak for a week. he lasts 1 minute before spouting off to the media about how he has the best defense in football.

    what a bunch of ass holes that family is. can't believe the eagles are honoring a jerk off coach that won one playoff game during his tenure. that is worse than the phillies honoring john kruk. man, philly sports recent history (my lifetime) really fucking blows

    eagle fans love buddy ryan and hate andy reid. that should tell you all you need to know about the knowledge of this fan base

    who did you endorse in 1999? :lol: look around the nfl. it's not always a big name guy that comes in and has success.

    dick vermeil? what? he won the sb in his 3rd or 4th year with the rams. no way he would have lasted 13 years. he was here for 5 years and retired when he didn't win. he was with the chiefs for 4 years before retiring again without winning.


    reid's biggest flaw is not being able to learn from the same mistakes he has been making since 1999. how is that possible? ugh. so frustrating.

    the eagle are honoring buddy ryan? you sure about that? when? maybe you are confusing buddy ryan with jim johnson (who the eagles are honoring with eric allen on sunday night). seems logical.

    who knows? maybe he figures it out in year 13. :thumbup:

    i'll never understand people who blindly dismiss a coach who has been to 50% of his franchise's super bowl appearances and 83% of his franchise's NFC Championship game appearances. say what you want about the results but 5 NFC Championship game appearances sure as shit was a lot of fun. but i guess people are either too young or just don't remember how bad the shit fest of coaches like marion campbell, rich kotite, and ray rhodes were. of course i want to win super bowls but i sure as shit like to compete every year they go back to the 3-13 bobby hoying, koy and ty detmer eras (juggler still probably has their jerseys :D )

    and Fixer football was never more fun to watch than when Buddy Ryan was the coach. For a guy who loves fighting in hockey you can't tell me having a guy set bounty's and basically telling the world to fuck off wasn't awesome. i loved it. so many memorable plays and games in that era. and i'll always believe we fired him too soon. remember the year after he was fired they were one of the greatest defensive teams ever. all buddy.

    oh and it must be a full moon but i agree with Fixer here. Eagles 34-19. Jackson with a huge game with at least one td over 50 yards and a Samuel INT for a TD.

    i've always said he's a good coach. sadly, he has a 13 year history of coming up small in big games though. if i have time today i wan to check his records against team's with winning records. i was thinking about that this morning for some reason (and i believe everyone here is old enough to remeber back to 1980's man).

    5 nfc championship games were fun, despite losing 4 of them. but he's only made 1 in the last 7 years though.


    i don't have a read on this game. at all. i think you'll enjoy it as they will probably go to the air against the cowboys defense though. absolute must win. that we can all agree on.

    Juggler i remember this same argument last year on here and I remember going back and checking his record as a favorite in the playoffs and it was actually quite good (but i'm not going back 100 pages to find it).

    i'm talking regular season vs teams with winning records. that's not hard to find.

    his playoff record is obviously good. i think it's 3-4 since 2004 though...

    i agree with you about buddy. reid is obviously the better head coach. nobody ever disputes that.

    but as far as impact on the game of football itself, buddy's contributions far outweigh anything andy reid has ever done. that''s not even close. buddy was one of the greatest defensive minds in the history of the game. he was an innovator. anyone who disputes that needs to brush up on their knowledge of the game a bit.

    still no read what so ever on this game....

    for what it's worth here are the numbers:
    reid:
    49-59 against teams .500 or better
    71-18-1 against sub .500 teams

    in the playoffs:
    4-1 against 8 or 9 win teams
    6-8 against 10 win or more teams


    for comparison's sake here are belichek's numbers:
    61-41 against teams .500 or better
    65-9 against sub .500 teams

    in the playoffs:
    1-0 against 8 or 9 win teams
    13-5 against 10 win or more teams



    like i said, he's a good coach. but he has really struggled against good teams since 1999.
