    My god NFL Network's announcing is terrible.

    I spent the whole 1st half trying to sync Verizon cable with 94.1. I never got it quite right because I couldn't get the game to pause for a short enough time, but it beat the hell out of listening to those morons.

    How does Matt Millen have a job anywhere near a football field?

    The Good :

    The Win

    The Bad :

    Play-Calling at times was atrocious

    The Ugly :

    Penalties...wow 11 more last night ??? :roll:

    I don't trust this defense in a tight Playoff style game

    Edit : Forgot the 7 drops in the end zone ! We're making these games closer than they should be

    I agree...the main guy sounds like a zombie

    The other 2 repeat themselves like a thousand times during the game

    Every guy that makes a play on offense is the best at his position

    every team is flawed. the d plays much better with samuel on the field...also parker was out last night too.

    the long layoff will really help.

    gotta start feeding shady the ball more. 10 carries is not enough. if anything, it will lighten vick's load and help him stay healthy...not to mention open up opportunities in the passing game.

    The play of the game was when Celek reached to the 5-yard line for the first down late in the 4th quarter...on 3rd and 19!

    I love Thurs. night football! Gives me a reason to have a few dozen beers :lol::lol:


    that was definitely the play of the game! he knew he had the first down, too...THAT'S what makes a good football player...now if we could get him to CATCH THE BALL IN THE ENDZONE, and get rid of some of those damn penalties!

    atlanta's saftey's were probably at home watching on tv. houston's saftey's i believe tried to go deep cover 2 like the bears and ginas.....but their secondary as a whole is horrendous. we were able to throw the deep and intermediate routes on them.

    that's right, it was houston. Foster had a nice game for my fantasy team, so it's all good.

    I have Akers as well. He put up another 10 spot for me last night. Has been averaging 12.5 points over his last 6 games....solid!

    there's the reid hate. gotta love philly

    ugly win, but I'm not complaining. I think most of the penalties were due to a tired team. They've played something like 4 games in 24 days. That stuff will self correct itself during this 10 day break.

    celek's play was huge...for the win and more importantly for the cover :D

    houston has one of the worst pass defenses in NFL history!! and mccoy has been dinged up.

    the play calling last night was fine. The only issue I had was giving the ball to a 5'3", 140 pound guy on the goal line. The wildcat is such a fucking waste...especially when you give it to the guy with the body of a 14 year old
  • Hello again,been a minute or so. Was at the game last night and enjoyed it but the play calling imo is bad. I just don't get why we don't run more,thankfully Hou is a pathetic Def. I love the play action even though we don't run enough for it do work. On the bright side Vick is in a league by himself with some of the stuff he does. The guy must have vaseline or butter on i swear. Shady Mccoy is a beast and needs at least 15 carries a game,he's turning into a true game changer. Our Def really misses a quality LB and safety back there. With Samuel at least u have a threat and without him Qb's are licking there chops. The pass rush was bad until the 4th quarter,Schaub had all day too throw and it really shows are faults. With the layoff hopefully we get healthy and come back hungry and rested. This team has alot of upside but the def will be are downfall in the end.

    when you are playing the worst passing defense in the league you throw the ball. the rules are so set against the defense in the passing game so when you have bad pass defense you will eat them up. also when we line up in running situations with a running formation our run game sucks. mccoy's runs come out of the passing game where we fool them. we play the game pass to run, not run to pass. if we try and run the ball like the jets you will see lots of 3 and outs. also not sure if you've noticed but vick is awful when under center. routinely stumbling and/or losing handle on the ball.

    I understand all that,but were gonna get Vick killed throwing this much. Shady and even Harrison have showed that when given the chance they can get the job done. I was the biggiest Kolb backer around but Vick has clearly shown he's playing at another level,and if the play calling stays the same we'll see Kolb in sooner then later. And with the weather turning big time a running game needs to be established.

    Good points. I think 90% of mccoy's rush yards came on that trap out of the shotgun formation. He was getting 10 yards a carry on that play.

    I was saying the same thing about the non-existent eagles pass rush. the only time schaub got touched was when cole got flagged for that BS personal foul.

    can't play game worrying about someone getting hurt. and vick takes a beating because of his scrambling not getting hit in the pocket. also 4 games in 18 days - he looked a bit slower last night. the 10 days off will be huge for this team's legs including vick's.

    apparantly andy reid agrees with me on how our QB can take the most hits in the league and no one ever gets a penalty against us.

    Come on man you really need your Reid Goggles off once in awhile
    I don't see how you can defend Chad Hall even being on this team... you have a guy who runs hard and is bigger get what 3 carries? They do have a horrible pass defense but you still have to run the ball
    If for no other reason to protect Vick from more hits
    Brilliant call with that 3rd down with 3 minutes left the Texans have zero timeouts and he throws the ball
    The red zone play calling is an adventure as well
    My drinking team has a hockey problem
