Divisional Round Game Thread - Philadelphia Eagles at New York Giants (2 Viewers)

[JuniorNB]

As an Eagle fans, these are my wishes for teh second haf:

The Eagles throw a lot of the underneath crossing patterns that worked so well to end the half.

The Giants continue to have to settle for three when they get the ball in the red zone.

Coughlin continues to save Jacobs for God-knows-what.

........somebody better tell Coughlin that this is the freaking playoffs. You don't worry about injuries at this point. Jacobs is killing the Eagles right now and you have to give him more opportunities.

Let me get this straight

After the turnover Jacobs for 11 yards

Then Jacobs for 5 yards

Then no backs 0 yards

Then no backs 0 yards

FG

I totally understand why Buddy Ryan wanted to kick Kevin Gilbride's ### back in the day

WTF!!! Dumb Dumb Dumb play calling

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

Big turn of events once again. Considine and Demps come up big filling in for Asante Samuel and Mikell. Huge.

The Eagles need a pass rush.

 

[msommer]

Pathetic attempt by Celek

 

[awesomeness]

Why can't Celek catch the ball! FFS

 

[awesomeness]

HUGE 3rd and 20 CONVERSION.

McNabb dodges numerous tackles.

 

[Jeff Pasquino]

Hard to say a 3rd and 20 conversion in your own half is huge....but, that one was.

 

[Die]

Great awareness by McNabb.

 

[awesomeness]

I dont get it. Whats with the drops.

 

[Woozy Foozy]

Hi, Dodds. Who ya rooting for?

Just watching this one mostly. My team is the Chargers

Oh. It kills me to root against the team who served us the 18-1 last year.

 

[msommer]

Excellent effort by McNabb

 

[Die]

Eagles receivers are killing McNabb though.

 

[Milwalkeysbeast]

Curtis doesnt usually miss those! Giants break right there

 

[awesomeness]

Curtis makes a first down catch, though he didn't secure it right away.

They've had their day in the sun. I'm for the Steagles today!

 

[JuniorNB]

I like the rhythm that the Philly offense seems to have right now. I still think this one's coming down to a big turnover.

 

[Die]

Eagles are one-dimensional but McNabb playing great.

 

[timschochet]

So far, Runyon is manning up and handling Tuck, and this is the main reason McNabb is getting the time he needs. It's a heck of an effort, for the old, wounded veteran.

 

[Die]

I like the rhythm that the Philly offense seems to have right now. I still think this one's coming down to a big turnover.

The Giants failure to score TDs means a huge play or questionable call could beat them, despite the fact that the Giants are playing a little bit better.

 

[JuniorNB]

Nice job of buying time there and finding Buckhalter. He seems to have more composure than Manning today.

 

[Mighty Mice]

Critical drop by Curtis overcome by some nice plays. Excellent 3rd down conversions overall. Since the end of the half the Eagles O has turned it up a notch. Just waiting for the Westbrook play that is inevitably coming.

I agree, although I think it is evening out.

 

[Die]

Giants are in big trouble if the Eagles score a TD.

 

[timschochet]

This is around the point in the Viking game where Westbrook started to go off.

 

[timschochet]

Good pressure on McNabb that time is the difference between a FG and a TD.

 

[SouthJersey]

Good pressure on McNabb that time is the difference between a FG and a TD.

A dropped TD pass by Kevin Curtis was the difference between a TD and a FG.

 

[JuniorNB]

This time, it's the Eagles who can't finish a drive.

What a great game. It's still hard to get a read on who's going to win it. I feel exactly the same as I did all week.

 

[Mr Anonymous]

Anyone know the record for most lead changes in an NFL playoff game?

 

[fred_1_15301]

Good pressure on McNabb that time is the difference between a FG and a TD.

A dropped TD pass by Kevin Curtis was the difference between a TD and a FG.

He wasn't getting a td on that unless the safety completely misses a clear tackle. It was a big gain though.

A dropped TD pass by Kevin Curtis was the difference between a TD and a FG.

he wasn't going to score on that dropped pass. They had a safety back there who was on his way over to Curtis.

The Giants are okay but I can't stand the Manning brothers.

 

[Woozy Foozy]

Crap!

 

[JuniorNB]

Dammit!

Best throw of the day by either QB.

 

[Morton Muffley]

good now RUN the ball!!!

 

[JuniorNB]

Hmmm. In a game like this, I'm not sure that the five yards is as valuable as the time out he burned.

 

[fred_1_15301]

I guess this game will come down to a FG and I have a lot more faith in Akers than Carney right now.

 

[timschochet]

The enigma of Eli Manning. He can look plain awful all day, and then make a beautiful pass like that one...

 

[timschochet]

good now RUN the ball!!!

The Eagles are shutting it down.

 

[modogg]

I guess this game will come down to a FG and I have a lot more faith in Akers than Carney right now.

i have a lot more faith having the wing then going against it. Coughlin may regret this if they don't get a TD here

But Carney will have the wind in the 4th.

Westbrook time.

Philly will have it.

[Mighty Mice]

Nice blitz by Mikell forcing a bad throw by Eli. Good to see QM back on the field. Excellent D try. Eagles have the ball w/ the wind in the 4th; huge if they go into that quater with the lead also. See how hard the kicking game is going the other way.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Giants are in trouble if they trail going into the 4th, since Philly win have the wind.

 

[awesomeness]

Big catch by Curtis. Really didn't want a 3 and out there.
