    i guess it's better to win these meaningless games than not but anyone who takes the results with any seriousness is nuts.

    if tebow makes this team over barkley then chip has lost his mind.

    wins and losses are absolutely meaningless in preseason. it's all about execution.

    i think this team is executing way better than i imagined they would a few months ago. just a good sign heading into september. that's all...

    and anyone overly concerned about the 3rd string quarterback has too much time on their hands.
    i think the execution is highly overrated in pre-season games too. i mean defenses don't do anything other than the basics and very little game planning is done if you can't execute in pre-season games then you probably aren't very talented to begin with.

    Tebow blows and would be a complete waste of a roster space and Barkley is better than a 3rd string QB. I think Chip might end up trading him if he does like Tebow but if he just releases him it would be a dumb move as Barkley would be picked up pretty quickly.

    Let's just get the season started. Not an easy start At Atlanta. and dislike not playing the opening sunday.

    This team is going to be badass right up until the moment Bradford gets hurt. Hope he doesn't, it will be fun to be around the fans when the team is hammering other teams.
    Being a USC guy I love Sanchez and Bark but they are not leading this team to the playoffs.
    Tebow is gonzo.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    Disagree. Execution and avoiding injuries are the only two things that matter this time of the year. Don't know what else there is, really.

    And especially for a team with this amount of turnover. It's a big contrast to the last time te they had a significant amount of new additions in 2012. You could tell that team was a mess before season started.

    i think you get the execution down in practice. way more reps in practice and at least get some different looks from your own d. that's probably even more true with Chips faster pace. 1st team d in pre-season are barely trying to match the pace of Chips offense. those guys are more concerned with not getting hurt. i don't put too much into 4 series the starting O has played in pre-season games.

    You would if you watched my favorite team's O (49ers) this pre-season.
    Much, much better to look great than to look completely inept. Does it guarantee future successes? No, of course not. But as a fan I would much rather watch the team do well than poorly. My wife is an Eagles fan and she is doing everything she can to not get too excited.
    I ask - why not get excited? It is part of the fun and of being a fan.

    yeah. and they don't even tackle in practice. he brings this stuff up every year around this time.

    i would be beyond depressed if i was a niners fan. it's almost like the phils fall from grace with how quickly you guys went from back to back nfc championship games to....what you have now.

    i don't get excited over pre-season games. they are meaningless. now that being said I do expect this team to be good. they were good last year but went 10-6 (9-3 after 12 games and by last game were already eliminated from playoffs...hard to do that) and didn't make the playoffs. this franchise hasn't won a playoff game in 7 years and this coach has won none. i would say i am cautiously optimistic. that is best in Philadelphia. burned too many times by too many teams in this city to get excited by pre-season results.

    they open up at Atlanta on Monday night. tough game. 2nd game is Dallas. All the excitement over pre-season would be null and void if you lose that Atlanta game with Dallas next. excitement levels build up with each win until you get to the post-season. cautiously optimistic.

    vegas moved them up to 10-1 odds. only seattle, green bay, and indy are higher. i think the birds were 25-1 or something a few weeks ago.

    saw agholor was +650 for offensive rookie of year. threw down a little on that one.

    o/u on wins jumped from 8.5 to 9.5 since camp started too...

    Niners fucking suck. I will root for them because I am a fan but they are an embarrassment right now.

    Go full bore Hawks, be excited and have fun rooting on your team!

    I love agholor but I think Amari Cooper kills it this year.

    I like Eagles +9.5 but getting in when it was 8.5 would have been better!

    Yeah I'm not touching 9.5. Missed the boat at 8.5.

    Cooper looked good last night. Raiders may have finally gotten it right.

    Tebow or Barkley? I say who cares? The 3rd string qb never really matters...

    Bigger concern for me was Rowe looking a little shaky again..,

    In this case it might. If Braddy (I am calling him this, it will bother the hell out of my wife, who despises everything Patriots) gets hurt and Sanchise goes in you may find yourself calling for the 3rd stringer.

    oh, goody....with the phillies season in the toilet, the eagles thread is back.

    Toilet? Dude they're 23-16 since the break. Real, rational fans are paying attention and can see light at the end of the tunnel. These young bucks have been fun to watch over the last 6 weeks. Another nice performance last night.

    But yeah...tis the season for football, my friend. Birds look like they might make some noise.

    GO BIRDS!

    real, rational fans know that 40 meaningless games don't mean anything. the phillies organization is a dumpster fire

    That's how this city rolls. Always 100% straight trash eagles fans. At times they pretend to like baseball.

    The linc parking lot before an Eagles game is legitametely something I wouldn't wish on anyone

    I mean honest to god, it's like white trash saved up all their money for a year and bought football tickets

    Lol
    95% of eagles fans who consistently attend home games are ex-high school football players who think they could play in the nfl...even though most of them are 50-100 pounds overweight and couldn't run 50 yards without keeling over due to hyperventilation or cardiac arrest. they all 'have heart and passion'.

    I will always be an eagles fan but they have the worst fanbase of any team in any professional sport in the world. bunch of fucking losers.

    the linc sucks and so does going to the game and having to listen to the dumbest fans in the country.

    the nfl is terrible. if you don't bet on the games there is no reason to watch. it's a joke

    eagles fans are making super bowl plans based on the preseason. fanbase of window lickers...it's embarrassing
