Random Thoughts From The Eagles Game

hail_2_da_skins · 10-06-2008, 10:57 AM

The Skins have to beat the Rams! I live in St. Louis and the folks at my job know I'm a big Skins fan. I would never hear the end of it, if the Lambs somehow beat the Skins.

How Many Ways to Cook a Lamb?

Spiced Rubbed Lamb Chops with Wilted Spinach
Moroccan Grilled Lamb with Golden Couscous Salad
Greek Lamb Pizza
Pomegranate Glazed Rack of Lamb
Mint-Pesto Rubbed Leg of Lamb
Tandoori Lamb Chops
Pan Seared Lamb
Roast Leg of Lamb
Pineapple Lamb Burgers with Red Pepper Sauce
Lamb Satay Stir-Fry
Apricot Glazed Lamb Roast
Todd English's Pan Griddled Lamb Chops
Sweet Orange Lamb
Tuscan Lamb Meatballs
Mediterranean Lamb Pilaf
Lamb and Artichoke Brochette with Dandelion, Goat Cheese and Olives
Lamb Stew
Lamb Vindaloo
Lamb with Brown Rice Risotto

...that's about all Forest.

We have won two huge division road games back to back . This without Taylor , Springs and M. Washington vs the iggles . Considering Rocky is probably 90% and C. Rogers although he is playing awesome is not 100% , this looks like a very good defence , maybe great . O-Line , CP and JC ,,,,, big time games the last 4 weeks . HIP - HIP - HOORAY !!!

Another impressive win!!! Also, I think Horton was thinking about the college rules.

You don't go on the road and beat Dallas and Philly and not be a good team. To get down 14-0 on the road w/ out 3 starters out on defense and still win is very very impressive.

One thing you might want to realize is that it's hard to just blow teams out in the NFL. Yes it happens here and there, NY beat the crap out of Seattle. But NY had to go to overtime to beat Cinn. This isn't college ball. Everyone that has made it to the NFL has made it for a reason. These people are professionals and every team has good players. Even STL. has very good players. Tory Holt and Steven Jackson are very very good NFL players.

I sure as hell hope the Players don't feel like the Rams game will be easy. It will show me a lot about this team and Jim Zorn if they dominate the Rams as they should. They will need to focus on every team every week just as much as they did on Dallas and Philly if they want to bring out the true potential in this team.

Once again this week the question has to be asked.

Where the F is Sally Jenkins?

I was just about to say something about her! Can you imagine the field day she would have if we blow any of these next 3 games?

Did she write an article after week 1?

EDIT: Yes she did. Here it is.

It's a good time to be a Skins fan. A good time indeed.

this year thus far has a real nice feel to it thats for sure and for me i,m just taking it all in and hope it continues...down 14 they just chipped away and then they turned it on shows me that they have a alot of maturity and a close knit team. they also like to play for zorn too. i,m still feeling a bit zorny..hip hip hooray - hip hip hooray - hip hip hooray..

keep it up boys..

I just heard on ESPN that Brian Westbrook fractured a couple of ribs in the game yesterday, sorry, no link on this yet. I'm sure it will come up as another excuse as to why the Eagles lost.

D. Thomas needs to get his head in the game. His penalties week in and week out are adding up.

I still can't believe the refs blew the whistle on ARE. I thought that should have been a TD. I don't see where he got touched at all.

That's what I'm saying people these games were a bad call or a bounce of the ball here or there of being blowouts. In reality we manhandled the eagles.

I note that some of the Eagles' fans boards are filled with whining about how they should have won, Reid has lost it as a coach, McNabb has no touch, etc. Do these guys realize that but for two blown calls by the officials -- one which allowed for the return TD and another that negated a Randle El TD by calling him down -- the score of the game is 30-10? I guess not.

It was an impressive win for the Skins. We have a real coach and a real QB, a lead RB that wants to put the hurt on people, and a defense that wants not just to bend, but force 3 and outs every series (including 5 in a row yesterday!)

Now they just need to keep their heads and go about their business.

You're right Matty, it is a good time to be a Skins fan. Redskin fans in this area have their cars decked out with Redskin flags and such. My girlfriend called me from Virginia Beach today to tell me about this car that had" The cowboys suck and the eagles do too" on the back windshield. It's nice to run into people you don't know with their Skins gear on, and see smiling faces, and have happy conversations about how well this team is doing. I use to take up for the Skins when I only half believed what I was saying. I don't have to do that anymore. This feels so good. The Washington Redskins are a good team. People KNOW it, instead of HOPE it. It is a good time to be a Skins fan.

Well said. I like it.
