    good win considering the penalties and dropped balls. great win considering it was against the giants :twisted: long way to go however.

    5 straight over the Giants - good stuff. Team still taking way too many penalties. Dropped balls what can you say? at least it was only one game and not a trend with this team. McCoy becoming Westbrook2 with big plays. Defense was good again, but can someone explain to me why we leave Steward Bradley in the game on 3rd and long situations? And we have the be the only team inthe league whose lbs and dbs don't turn around and play the ball at least 2 times every game. 7-3 but doesn't get any easier - very tough road game next week coming off this big win. going to be very difficult to win that one i think but hopefully can pressure Cutler into turnovers. Shaping up for some big december and hopefully january games boys.

    He CAN'T be THAT GOOD. :D

    The Eagles get blown out, even though I'll somewhat root for them.

    Peace

    Umm, excuse me, what was that again?

    I don't care for either team BUT last night I was more than somewhat rooting for the Eagles. It was more to do with the play of MV who might just if he continues to play like this become the MVP. Good game last night so who's next for the Iggles?

    defense. defense. defense. and, defense. been saying this all year but they continue to get better. 61 rushing yards. 200 yards in total. 5 turnovers. 5. that is how you win football games and we're doing it better than anyone else in the nfl. nice to see b graham force a fumble. asante is having a great year. he owns the manning family :lol: ......the o line continues to jell and get better as well.

    great call on the 4th and 1. shady does not get nearly as much credit as he should. but it should not even have come to that. we have to put games like this away. i wasn't too happy with our game plan. 5 rushes in the 1st half...awful on 3rd down...awful in the red zone...10 penalties for 120 yards-horrendous...where were the screen passes?...and up 16-10 late in the 3rd/early 4th quarter, and we pass 4 times in a row before fumbling and turning the ball over which leads to the giants go-ahead touchdown. really?

    we've got to play better than this. but it's good to know we can win games when we're not at our best. 1st place baby! this train's rolling....


    oh and here's a good drinking game. take a shot every time the eagles line up in shotgun formation. you'll have alcohol poisoning by halftime. good times...

    Defense in general was very impressive, although the end of 3rd quarter was pretty disastrous.

    The officials were brutal again. That chop block call, and not calling roughing the passer, was ridiculous.

    I knew Samuel was gonna fumble that int return, honestly. I was yelling for him to just get down on the ground. Luckily Eli is an idiot.

    Football just isn't that much fun to watch these days. Every play I wait for the referee to tell me who did what and for how many yards. My hopeless lifelong addiction continues, but I definitely don't get the same enjoyment that I used to.

    o/u on cutler turnovers against our defense should be set no lower than 2 :mrgreen:

    not to blame officials but they were atrocious again. Giants 1st scoring drive got away with at least 2 blatant holds and pushoff by the receiver. can't believe we actually got the call on the Manning fumble challenge - seems like we get screwed all the time in the Giants games on challenges (still pissed off about the Eli back heel not over the line scrimmage even though the ball was 2 yards over from a few years ago). the one overturned fumble sucked to. they've made the fumble not fumble call so much more difficult these days because of ground can't cause fumble, finger tip hits ground, etc.

    Samuel - agree 100% as i was yelling at the tv for him to get down as well. But Asante is a playmaker so have to take the good with the bad.

    Man, after last night's game the VERY same thought came to me of course with Eagles going down once again. :D

    That's kind of weird, but it's cool. 8-) Patriots crowd sounded terrified yesterday at the end there. I don't blame them.

    Very true.

    I think every Eagles fan in the world was yelling to Samuel to get down!! It's strange that someone who consistantly makes amazingly athletic and ridiculous plays can do stupid things...he knew that he should have gone down or at least protected the ball, just as he knew he hit that guy too high (the guy that he laid out helmet-to-helmet and then strutted off).

    Our defense was really fun to watch last night, yeah?? Definitely more fun than watching receivers drop balls left and right...seemed like a lot of players were nervous and tense last night--lots of stupid scuffles and hard hits. If our defense can keep this level of play up (without the penalties)....ahhh, the rest of the season is going to be AWESOME!

    i love this game.

  • Always nice to beat the Gints especially 5 times in a row now !

    It was frustrating seeing guys drop 2 touchdowns and keeping the game close

    I think Herremans killed two drives by himself with just terrible penalties...they really need to be more disciplined

    Defense has really come around..Bradley can't cove me out there though :lol:

    Very weird plays seem to happen when these 2 teams play in Philly :roll:

    I agree 100% regarding your last comment. The NFL is a horseshit product. Thank god for gambling.

    There were 3 fights in my section last night. Eagles fans are fucking idiots.

    The unnecessary roughing penalty on samuel made me laugh. Even though it helped the birds, that manning fumble was BS.

    Why was the fumble BS, it was a fumble. I must say I was very happy with the call.

    Very nice article on Vick and why I'm starting to like the Eagles. I can't believe I'm saying such a thing..YIKES!

    Time To Forgive Vick Is Here

    I've said THIS from the very beginning when MV did his heinous crimes....
    In fact, in a backward way, Vick has been the best thing to happen to pit bulls.

    "It's very true," says John Goodwin of the Humane Society of the United States. "For the big picture, Michael has been a tipping point. Since his case, there have been 30 new laws enacted all over the country toughening dogfighting penalties. Raids [on dogfighting rings] were up twice as much in 2008 -- after Vick -- as they were in 2006, before him. There's much more awareness. People see it now and call it in."
