    Can we just go ahead get rid of the "norfeast" from Philly proper?

    Every time I take the Tacony bridge over on my way to some meetings out Fort Washington, Horsham, Lansdale way I wonder what the place must be like.  Clearly not anywhere I would want to live.

    Some tough neighborhoods right over that bridge, for sure.

    LIttle disappointed there isn't more chatter in here. What has become of us?

    And I know I'm about to mush the shit out of this, but I'm wayyyy more confident in this game now that it's Minnesota and not New Orleans.
    I feel the exact opposite - haha.  I had the eagles plus three, eagles on the moneyline, and eagles on the second half moneyline.  Also got extremely lucky with the titans garbage time td to push that game over.  Then on the minn play on a huge vikings -5 bet to earn a push.  Great weekend for the fixer. 

    I hope I'm wrong but I think the eagles lose by double digits on sunday.  I'd love to see how teams have done hisorically in the playoffs following a lucky ass play/win like the vikes pulled off.  For example, the eagles shitting the bed at home the week after fourth and 26.

    Thought that time out before the field goal was gonna cost them the game.  Probably the dumbest thing I have ever seen -- even worse than the challenge of the two yard completion on first down last year (honorable mention for the falcons playcalling on that final series).  I would have run the ball on third down, then gone for it assuming it was fourth and short.

    was talking with my friend after the game -- we agreed that we should be more excited about the eagles being a win away from the super bowl.  doesn't feel that way at all
    Yeah, I would just take my chances against Keenum instead of Brees. Defense is incredibly legit, but I'll never buy into Minnesota - always a lot of hype with their teams and then they lay an egg. And like you said they blew their load last week against a rookie making a terrible terrible play on the ball/player.

    Maybe I'm just convincing myself, but the Birds played a terrible game last week and found a way to win. I think they can improve on all the bullshit they did last week.

    I'm thinking Clement has the best game of the RBs and Minny's O-line blows. Graham and company better rip Keenum's head off.

    hope you're right man.  the difference between playing minnesota and atlanta is that one team is good and the other one sucks.

    I don't see how the eagles offense scores at all on sunday.  Gonna need 2 or 3 turnovers to win methinks

    And at any rate this is all house money. Of course I want them to win, but I expected nothing beyond last week.

    But.....if this is how they win it all. Holy fuck look out. I'll be ringing the Liberty Bell over that police horse's head.

    Way better call than the Sly Stalone news, which I pray isn't happening.

    It's no Boyz II Men but I'll take it.

    They are playing at halftime?  Not sure I like halftime shows at playoff games.  (Went to get a few beers during the one game I attended with a halftime show -- Beyonce at Super Bowl XLVII)  Instead of having bands play they should send beer vendors around.

    I don't think they extend the half-time for these games so 10min max for them.

    Yeah, it's not a televised half hour halftime like the Super Bowl. This is the usual halftime - at best they'll play maybe three songs.

    Back in '14 when I was there for that Sunday night game where they kicked the shit out of the Giants, and Victor Cruz got hurt, that Motown Philly was better than anything ever - it was a party in the stands.

    And hopefully there is an orgy in the stands come ~10pm Sunday night. With dog masks.

    Get weird.

    I remember for the Bucs championship game they had some god awful rap act performing. Cannot remember who it was but it was one of those deals where they had a bunch of fake fans run out to the field and pretend like they were having the time of their lives. There were boos--quite a few as you can imagine.


    I bet they'll have the Roots up top that Miller Lite Flight Deck thing instead of rushing them on the field like that for 10 minutes.

    Sunday cannot get here soon enough.
