thank you mike mccarthy for going soft and running the ball 35 times against us and keeping us in the game. i know a good portion of the fans and the media love the running game but the packers running the ball as much as they did kept us in the game today. no way if they throw the ball 35-45 times do they score less than 30 against us. we would have never stopped their passing game.
dude, this was exactly what I was saying.
and whoever compared mike vick to steve young. well, that wasn't the best comparison.
going to nfl games just isn't fun. watching on tv is better. the crowd sucked tonight. felt like a regular season game.
good season for the birds. tough loss, but gb is a better team. I'm not sold on vick coming back on a long term deal. he wasn't good again tonight...3rd game in a row that he hasn't played well. they did better than I thought they would this year.
could be worse...we could be giant or cowboy fans. I hope gb wins it all...I like rodgers a lotPost edited by The Fixer on0 -

didn't you think riley cooper was awfully soft on the last play as well? got to pull the dback down and not let him intercept it there. frustrating - how many days to pitchers and catchers?0 -

No. I was sitting in that corner of the end zone. terrible throw. vick rushed that play. he should have clocked the ball and taken his time0 -

i'd say it had more to do with Philly not completing drives (FG's and missed FG's) than GB chewing up the clock. GB had three good drives. (longest was 7 minutes)
time of possession was 32-2881 is now off the air0 -

i just said the same thing in the packers thread. love rodgers game and his attitude and demeanor. he is a beast. i'd franchise vick at best but kolb seemed pretty annoyed after the game sounding like he is going to ask for a trade. i think vick has maybe 2 years, 3 tops so i don't think he is a long term solution. love to keep them both but will kolb allow that is the question.0 -

reid called a 4 vertical pass play there. should have checked down to mccoy. rough way to end it.www.myspace.com0 -

We had NO PASS RUSH at all,Rodgers had all day back there. Once again not running the ball i just don't get it :roll: Funny thing the team that couldn't run all year shoved it down are throats,but the team with a good rb had 12 carries. If we had a pass rush maybe are redzone def wouldn't have been the worst in football history. Either sign Vick to the tag or an extention draft a o-lineman,sign Nandi and a lb,fire Reid and Mcdermott,hire Gruden and a new def coordinator and start over next year.Go Birds!!!!0

when the eagles ran the ball they got nothing. their offense pretty much sucked in all facets tonight. how many penalties did justice have...29?
also, mike mcglynn snaps the ball the same way my 2 year old nephew throws. yep, I'm complaining about mike mcglynn0 -

12 carries isn't enough to give them a chance to establish a running game,and yes Justice sucked.Go Birds!!!!0 -
well i predicted 24-21 birds. if you were to tell me we would win the turnover battle and hold packers to 21 points and lose i would have called you crazy.
forget the questionable play calling (13 run plays to a guy averaging 5.2 ypc against a defense susceptible to the run is an absolute disgrace)
forget the eagles being late to make adjustments on both sides of the ball (happens all the time in big games)
forget all the penalties (this team has been woefully undisciplined all season)
forget the tight end inexplicably stepping out of bounds on the 2 point conversion
forget the back breaking drive allowed by the defense after we cut it to 14-10
forget james sparks (who??!?) running down our throats and the packers controlling the clock
forget the interception
forget all that...david akers, mr reliable his whole career, misses 2 very makeable (especially the 2nd one) and we lose by 5 points. that's the way it goes.
it was a fun season. expectations changed with the switch in quarterback though. like last year, we let a bye week slip away and lost in the first round again. 14 points in the playoffs last year. 16 this year...
i blame donovan mcnabb.:roll: oh boy....long off-season ahead boys. yet again.

hahahaha! boy andy reid just can't pick a quarterback to save his life, huh? wow, man. wow
there's one common denominator here and it's been here for 12 years. it ain't the quarterback anymore dude. it ain't the quarterbackwww.myspace.com0 -

trent cole and these smallish d ends we have always seem to wear down towards the end of the season. seems to happen every year.www.myspace.com0 -

fair enough. it was james starks. kiper had him as the 5th best sr RB coming out of buffalo last year. he's a player...just not an established one.
bottom line is that this team overachieved in the regular season. similar to last year. I think they made some strides this year, but they were not ready to seriously contend. hopefully they can fill some holes and be ready to improve next season (if there is one)0 -

huh? he was kind of my main point.
i didn't realize his contract is up. i felt bad for the guy watching him talk after the game. he sounds like he knows they're not bringing him back. he's had a great career here.www.myspace.com0 -

fucking brutal. he sucked in the arizona game two years ago too. it's extremely possible that he has the mcnabb gene, which isn't conducive to winning.
