Nice games by both teams.
Indy still looks very nice too.
It was nice to see the Eagles develop Westbrook more.
Donovan was on fire.
We also saw the old Bucs defense. They just own Vick.
Can Indy really outscore the great defenses in the east ?
I think they can.

one game the Eagles will actually need him to step up he won't. Running up and down on the Packers is
NOT a huge feat. More impressive today was the Philly D. We all know that McNad can throw it and TO
can catch it, but the D came to play today.
Speaking of the Bucs, has anyone in football had a tougher two game streak than the Bucs? Atlanta one
week and then San Diego the next? This is how you get ready for playoffs!
Indy is just plain scarry. I think if they rematched NE at NE they would win, and I know they would win if they
played them at home (which they probably won't). NE had the way easier schedule and we saw what happened
when they played a real team.
Phillies candy *ss schedule will catch up with them!
bucs keep rolling!

I would love to see the bucs in the playoffs.
lol
I didn't see moss show up on this day did I?
are the Vikings doing anything?
Maybe I will see Culpepper on the links during playoff time ... and Tice as his caddy
28 on them. We would take moss out just like we did TO a few years back and then what?
Actually the Eagles MIGHT score on us this year if we played, unlike the past when they didn't even
sniff the endzone..Im sure TO would run by someone late in the 4th quarter in garbage time after the
bucs had the game in hand. It is clear by our past that we are very at home in Philly..actually we own
the place and philly fan knows it. I think the only think a few weeks ago that Philly fan was scared of
was the ATL and now after this week they are praying that the bucs don't get in.
Funny thing is that if Minny get to the playoffs which is still a big if, winning their division an d getting
the 3 seed, they would play the #6 seed.....bucs....
That would be fun!

The only team that can beat the Eagles is the Eagles themselves.
Scared of Atlanta? Nahhh
Praying that Tampa Bay comes here in January? Yessirreebob.
America. I don't have any doubt that the same would happen this year. Our defense knows how
to talk out runners like McNad. When McNad is on the run and pressured the team does not function. We
saw that with Pitt. TO is useless when McNad is running for his life. Does anyone actually think McNad is
a better runner than Vick? We own Vick, and we own McNad
JS
In all honesty, who do you think can come up here in January and win???
1 loss in 28 games is nothing to sneeze at. When they win their 3rd superbowl in 4 years maybe
you'll admit they are the best. Nah, you never will but then again, WHO CARES WHAT YOU THINK!

Good point. The thing that is driving Tony Dunge
nuts is the thought of going to Pitt or NE when the
temperature is -10 wind chill and Peyton Manning can't
even grip the ball. If that happens, and it turns into
a run game, then Pittsburgh and New England own Indy.
If the weather is good, and Manning can throw and the
receivers can run their good disciplined routes, then
Indy has a good chance this year.
Belichek always seems to find the right schemes to win the big ones.

out there... Ill also take Indys QB, WR and TE's too. Pitt has a great defense, but you can't shut down
Wayne, Harrison and Stokley all game long. Indy is as complete a team on offense and their defense is
improving everyday. This is NOT the same Indy team that showed up in week 1.
As far as the chowders go, we saw what happened when they played one of the AFC elite.

PS I love how everyone is jumping on the Carolina bandwagon now.
<< <i>zsz....a run game favors pitt??? huh? Ill put my money on Edgerrin over the bus or whomever pitt throws

Indy has a defense?
When did this happen? Seriously, they are BAD on defense...which is unusual for a Dungy led team.
The Colts will never go anywhere until they learn to shut people down, and they are trying to go the Rams route, where they try to win 45-41 every week.
Indy's defense (or complete lack thereof) will be the reason time and again they are denied a chance at a super bowl.
If Peyton had really been about winning, he'd have deferred some of that record-setting contract into the team.
Good point about James being a better back then the bus.
A great running game doesn't necessarily mean which back is better.
It also involves great blocking schemes, and a wise quarterback who
knows when to scramble for yards. Big Ben is showing very mature
scrambling decisions, and Pittsburgh's blocking schemes are second to
none. I love to watch their guards pull and nail linebackers four yards
into the run when the linebacker never saw it coming. After you get
the 300 lb guard, you get 250-300 lbs of the bus or Duce coming at you.
It's a long afternoon when that happens. Having said that, watching
that game Sunday night was a great game for the purist. That was
unbelievable hitting, blocking, and tackling in this age of poor NFL desire
and technique.
