    We are down to the third string quarterback …

    After a strong start, Dallas is fading fast.

    Maybe the third stringer should be the second stringer.

    SB should fatten up his yards gained in this game. Less pressure for final game,if he wants the record.

    In all fairness, I think equal time should be given to the Cowboys for their highlights in this game:

    The kicker was 1 for 1 on extra points.

    Maybe take a little time and get Pickett off the cross before you gloat too much? You were the one that just crucified him right?

    Darin is today's winner for best religious context post. Anything on Moses? 😆

    Big day today for the Eagles. Call it the tale of two scenarios. One is the Eagles bring their A game, while the Packers make costly mistakes, and the Eagles wrap it up fairly early. The other is both teams play well, but the Eagles manage to find a way to win.

    Third scenario - I don't wish to even contemplate it. However if that does occur, then this message serves notice this thread will officially be closed.

    Eagles catching some nice breaks thus far.

    Let's hope it continues.

    I guess that I should be happy with a 10 point halftime lead, and I am, somewhat.

    That being said, the Eagles failed to capitalize on some good opportunities. The lead should be bigger than this.

    Packers are wearing out the Eagles defense.

    I may not like this coming 4th quarter.

    Eagles badly need to step up their offensive effort on this drive.

    At the very least, a field goal.

    Now I do what I do with the Brewers and root for the team that knocked mine out. Go Eagles.

    I mean. The Packers won but for the refs and the disastrous play calling and the loud fans and the strength of schedule.

  • Options
    stevekstevek Posts: 32,837 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Well it wasn't the prettiest win in the world, but I'll take it. 😊

    I'm recuperating in the local hospital. Doc told me if the Eagles had lost, I wouldn't have made it. 😆

    Philly weather for Sunday. Slightly above freezing, slightly windy, and around 50-60% chance of snow or rain.

    Remember the Rams are a warm weather team.

    Unless Hurts terribly falters, I like everything about this game for an Eagles win. But could the Rams still be on that "high" of wanting to do well for their city because of the fires? An adrenaline rush, so to speak, like it appears they had in their previous game? Perhaps, but I still like the Eagles here if they play Eagles football, and Elliot can kick straight for once.

    this kid is a beast. hell of a pick he was.

    targeted 73 times on the season and gave up zero touchdowns

    pro football focus ranked him 4th out of 223 cornerbacks

    all as a rookie

    I'm upgrading my call on an Eagles win today from probable to almost definitely.

    Maybe by game time it will be definitely. LOL

    Well the rams opening drive there were two pass interference penalties that weren’t called on the Eagles. Rams scored anyway in spite of the refs being for the Eagles.
    Go Rams! 🥳

    Yippee, Jake made an extra point. Maybe opened his eyes when he kicked that one. 🙄

    Was it my imagination? Did Barkley look back and slow up a tad around the 10 yard line. Allowing the defender to close the gap, then Barkley turned on the Jets again. Looked like he was teasing the defender. I'll have to find a replay. What do you think?
