Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

I think that this a very winnable game if we do the same as the 1st two drives in the ATL game. Backup QB Gracia had a big last game. Maybe we find some momentum in this game. What worries me is which D is going to show up.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

Does it matter and who is Gracia?

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

Were 4-8...shouldn't we be worried about everyone?

Garcia. Garcia is the QB who made TO in SAN FRAN.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

whatever dude. check your spelling.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

Were 4-8.....


4-8......


I'd be worried if we were playing anyone...He'll I'd be a little worried if the Ohio State Buckeyes were coming to DC this weekend.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

I'm not worried about loosing at 4/8 but would like to see us beat them to help keep them from making the play offs.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

You gotta be worried when the man behind TO's greatness comes to town.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

So it does matter to you guys if we don't win another game. Yeah, you guys don't sound like skins fans to me.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

Lets start a Pool.
When will JC throw a pick?
Will it be returned for a TD?
How many picks?
On which pick will Lloyd throw his helmet?

Oh god. We must be Bears, Chargers, Ravens, Colts fans then.

I care that we win only as far as it improves JC's confidence and experience, and helps this team gel and improve to close out the year stronger. If we lose but get strong play from JC and see improvement, that would be fine by me, too.

Nobody really wants to say it, but losing benefits us more than winning at this point, because we'll get a weaker schedule and better draft position next year. Really, getting a round or two into the playoffs and not getting into the Super Bowl could be the worst case scenario, in one way of looking at it...

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

i always want the skins to win. and especially when they play the eagles. being up here in eagle country, i really dont feel like listening to all the eagle fans talking crap. and most of it is just that, a bunch of non fact based bull

I actually don't know who the better team is right now. On one side, you have a team that lost it's offensive team leader, but the backup is playing well. On the other side, you have a team that lost it's offensive team leader, but the backup is playing well. On one side, you have a D that is very, very overrated. On the other side, you have a D that is very, very bad.

Here's what I do know. This game is a home divisional game for us. We will come out with all guns blazing. So will they. But we have the 12th man, and it's high time that this offense gets rolling. Just like when we went in to their house last January, the pressure is on the road team. They play their next three games on the road, in the division, and need to win 2 to come back home Week 17 and still be in the race. They have to make the statement in this game, not us.

Skins 24, Eagles 21.

Those are just silly ass comments. Once TO left SF Garcia fell out of sight. Garcia is a good backup and that's it. He sure lit it up in Cleveland and Det. didn't he?

Let me just clarify that I do not agree with the assertion that Garcia made TO....sarcasm.....okay, I can relax now.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

I'll be there as usual. I go now because I dont quit on my team and for the development of JC. I think the skins D will come up with 2 huge turnovers that will change the outcome of the game. Skins 21 Eagles 10. Just don't let them go over the top.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

We'll beat um. I think we could could still finish 8-8. That would be a good accomplishment.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

Garcia is about as terrible as collins when the line gets to him...

Yep, you caught us red handed. We just pretend to be skins fans.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

I saw this mentioned earlier, and I wanted to clarify....It DOESN'T MATTER HOW BAD WE FINISH, WE WILL STILL END UP WITH A LOW DRAFT PICK. I'm getting tired of seeing posts/threads about this. Look at the specifics of the Denver trade. If we finish worse than them, they get our draft pick. If we finish better, we keep our pick...EITHER WAY WE GET A BAD FIRST ROUND PICK.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

he eagles are who we thought they were, they are who we thought they were! thats why we took the damn field. now if you want to crown 'em, than crown there asses! THE EAGLES ARE WHO WE THOUGHT THEY WERE!

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

I feel like every time the Denver-Duckett trade gets clarified, somehow I lose all that clarity because everyone is saying different things.

I'm going to go insane, because I remember there being an initial error when the trade details we're realeased. It was changed, and I remembered those details.

To my understanding, we'll be okay unless it's between 22-28 or something like that. That would be the only stipulation.

If anyone that knows what the [U]official[/U] details are let me know with a link or something. When it's all here-say I get confused.

Thanks!

Before you go blasting everyone and telling them to look at things...maybe YOU should look at the specifics of the Denver trade.

Both us AND the Broncos need to finish so that we would have been between the 21st and 32nd pick in the draft. I have big news for you....were not even going to be close to finishing where we would have wound up with a pick 21 or later.

If we finish better, were going to end up swapping picks.

Now if we dont end up switching first rounders (which it dosent look like we will), its going to cost us a 4th round pick in 2008.


BAM! [url=http://www.nfl.com/nflnetwork/story/9616229]NFL.com - NFL News[/url] THERE IT IS! RIGHT THERE FOR EVERYONE TO SEE (I'm not directing this at you Alvin, we just must have gone over this 1,000 times)

If we pick between 21 and 31 AND Denver has a higher pick, we switch. If we pick #4, we pick #4, if we pick #20, we pick #20.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

well I'll be....I am sorry then, I had it wrong...don't I feel stupid
hahah

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

We are 4-8, we could lose to anybody. Yeah, this is a winnable game & yeah we could get blown out. You just don't know w/ this team.

I don't care if we could get the 1st pick in the draft by losing i'd still want to beat the eagles.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

I am worried becuase the iggle D can be tough for a young QB to deal with. It helps to have Garcia rather than McNabb, obviously, but Garcia can play. The systems on both sides of the ball that philly plays are sound. We're going to have to be better than we were last week, obviously.

As always, will our D actually show up? Will we mix the run and pass effectively? And will we paly better on third down on both sides? I hope so--I hate the iggles.

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

I hate it to say it, but it's threads like this that make you kind of see where Daseal is coming from...

This is sticky material.

I'm tired of hearing all the speculation about this deal when the specifics are out there in black and white for anyone to look up.

Word to the wise, google is your friend.

That wasn't a shot at you specifically

Re: Should we be worried about the eagles?
 

Considering we had our clock cleaned by this team....I think we should be just a lil concerned.

Again, prob not directed totally at you. I just feel like once a week someone else is saying how stupid the Skins are and were gonna give up our high draft pick.
