I find this interesting coming from the Eagles' home page, [url=http://www.philadelphiaeagles.com]Splash Page - Philadelphia Eagles[/url]:

What Is Your Prediction Vs. Redskins?

Tough win decided in fourth quarter - 19.2%
I think Eagles are ready for a big win - 36.3%
Everything depends on Westbrook - 17.6%
Defense wins game for Eagles - 14.4%
Not feeling very confident about this - 12.5%

Looks like 12% of their fans are actually intellegent.

Re: Thoughts on Eagles/Redskins
 

I think we have trouble today. Westbrook is playing whereas Springs and Taylor are not. We are a good team, but good teams don't win em all. Philly 27, Wash 17.

JC - 220 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT, 1 FL, 4 sacks
Portis - 21 carries, 65 yards 1 TD

McNabb - 275 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INT, 1 sack
Westbrook - 17 carries, 104 yards

Re: Thoughts on Eagles/Redskins
 

What is up with Springs? My tolerance for his "injuries" is growing very thin. I can say the same for Smoot, even though he's not out right now.

[quote=PhillyFanInDeadSkinLand;484497]Dear Redskin fans,
I can understand your excitedness over this year's wins especially the one over the cowgirls, but make no mistake..Reid and company will have an answer to JC's no-turnover season. Philly's D ranks first in sacks (17) and third in total ypg (245). There are also 5 fumbles recovered of 7. Im not stating who will win,[B] but that sunday's game marks the beginning of JC turnovers. [/B]
Some Note Worthies:
1. Some good match ups to watch are JJ vs. Juqua Parker (DE) and the reverse, Carter vs. Tra Thomas. Who will own who?
2. True, DeSean Jackson IS good for one bone head play sunday. But be honest, hasnt he performed better than most rookie WRs this year, if not most vets?
3. Buckhalter is no Westbrook. I needn't say more.

Hurry up Sunday, we can't wait any longer.[/quote]
hah, where you at buddy, I am cooking up the croww.

Re: Thoughts on Eagles/Redskins
 

McNabb's biggest problem is not the explosive wide receiver issue...jackson can handle that. It's the lack of a running game.

Re: Thoughts on Eagles/Redskins
 

SOOOOOOOOO...[B][U]NOW[/U][/B] does everyone believe in this team? :)

Eagles 16

Two keys on offense; one is protection of JC. If we protect, we could win by 14+, however Johnson is an excellent DC with a strong secondary allowing him to bring pressure. Second is the running game, we can't become one-dimensional even though Philly has stopped the run against Dallas, Pitt & Chicago. We must establish a running game to keep the Iggles off balance and not allow them to tee-off on JC.

Defensively, with Westbrook out, the only thing scary is McNabb outside the pocket.[/quote]

GOOD JOB! 1 point off! :)

He's old. I'm sure this is his last year. But if he can get healthy and play in the big games towards the stetch then I'm happy. If he gives what he can before he retires you won't see me complaining.

Re: Thoughts on Eagles/Redskins
 

i like smoot,but he runs his mouth way too much!!!!

Re: Thoughts on Eagles/Redskins
 

listening to Doc.....the man is a riot. According to Doc, the team is good, and has developed a mean streak, but is leaving to many points on the board. He says we need to HAMMER a couple of opponents in the next couple of weeks.
[B]More importantly[/B], the team needs to develope a NASTY streak. "If an opponent makes a mistake, he gets his spine CRUSHED!!"
GO DOC!

Re: Thoughts on Eagles/Redskins
 

ESPN news just reported that Brian Westbrook has fractured ribs and his status is uncertain.

Why are you so certain that this is his last year? He's a probowler and has been our best corner for the last 4 years. He's a little old, but he's probably one of the best conditioned athletes on our team. Players don't chose to be injured, it's just a part of the game. Springs will bounce back and have a great year.
