So 1st and 5 and the 21 is better than 1st and 10 at the 16?
I thought the same thing. The fact they agreed with each other is the funniest part.

Big stop there.
Forcing a FG try is big for the Eagles.

This game has totally lived up to it's billing. I expect it to be decided on a turnover.

nah..it's not about momentum loss though (as aikman was saying) ...it's because you lose any field position advantage an eagles stop would provide because halftime is imminent

Good point but the eagles have shown nothing at all on offense. Is it really end of the world if the Giants are stopped? ON the other hand, if they get a td, they put a ton of pressure on an Eagles offense which looks inept.

Keep taking these crossing routes if they are gonna give them to you.

Bad call of that third timeout.
Now the center of the field is out of play.
You have :40 left...waste.

McNabb having a nice 2:00 drill here. One of the persistant knocks on him. Agreed that AR using that timeout after the Avant catch a waste.

Wonder how often the scoreboard has read 10-8 in any NFL game?

Great half.
Both offenses could have done more, but tight NFC East game as expected.

Disagree. 40 seconds is enough time to throw a nice pass down the middle and still spike it. It won't take nearly 40 seconds to do that. As it stood they even ran it up the middle and spiked it.

i liked the playcall there. Very nice drive and playcalling the whole way (cept for that TO).

phew, not sure my heart can take the 2nd half. some thoughts...
- eagles have no business being up at the half here. Defense stepping up and poor play by Eli is keeping them in this (ahead)
- too many deep routes early by the eagles O. Glad to see them switch to crossing and short routes toward the end of the half
- Westbrook looks stiff and slow. he may be more hurt than they let on
- Could aikman just come right out and cheer for the giants already? Jeez, its unbelievable how biased he is

Eagles have outplayed the Giants when it comes to being in scoring range. The Giants have been in scoring range 3 times and came away only with 6 points. The Eagles have been there just twice but have 10 points.

lets go back to thegrounding....
how can they call intentional grounding whne McNabb was being hit as he threw... I think he was probably throwing it away,.. but its possible being hit could have affected the trajectory leading to a ball where no receiver was.. no?
can you challenge a grounding call?

so, the eagles get the wind in the 4th qtr right? The coin toss/field direction always confused me for some reason

The Giants need to stop kicking FGs and get in the endzone.

Eagles get the ball to start the 3rd and get the wind in the 4th.

Yes but one of the keys to winning is red zone offense. Eagles punched it in.

The Giants have to run the ball more on 2nd down. Eli is not going to win this game. They're able to run the ball but they just all of a sudden stop when it's working.

LOVE the fact that Jacobs has only 11 carries to this point and goes off the field on 2nd and 3rd down
