[dickey moe]

Cowboys dodged a bullet there.

 

[Please See Mine]

WTF, who cares about the 5 yards. Probably better in fact.

 

[jojoh07]

Ughhh timeout ??? are you serious , pee wee coaches dont make mistakes like that.

 

[culdeus]

And that right there is why Andy Reid will never win a super bowl.

Player on the field called the timeout not andy.

 

[simmonjm]

I wouldnt really be that heartbroken if Dallas loses today and then gets to travel to Minnesota as opposed to having Philly again at home next week

 

[Iwannabeacowboybaby!]

Wasted timeout there by Philly, no question. What's the difference if you punt from the 39 or 44 of Dallas unless you're going to fake.

 

[scratcher]

As much as I like to call Andy out, that was Ted Daisher's fault and then a player on the field called the timeout

 

[money.never.sleeps]

nice stop there

even though he didn't call it?

Come on bro, I know what you're saying but yet I don't. You don't want to be losing must win games at this point of the season, it means you're not as good as the other team and it's bad for morale. Under no circumstance is losing this game to Philly a good thing.

Yes

Yeah the best scenario for the Boys is probably to lose. They can beat the Vikings and the Saints. Then again, if they beat the Eagles today, they can obviously beat anyone in the NFC..........

 

[Irish Chaos]

Im convinced that Maclin just isnt that good...even with his catch last week....

 

[Chaos Commish]

I wouldnt really be that heartbroken if Dallas loses today and then gets to travel to Minnesota as opposed to having Philly again at home next week

And end up playing in Philly? No thanks. This is an 8 quarter opportunity to exorcise a demon.

 

[ScottyFargo]

You know what, we're still in the playoffs, I'm done with this game. Philly's playing like crap.

Took less than a quarter to give up, nice.

Kind of tells you something, doesn't it?

please fill us in...

I think it has something to do with his inclination to make rash generalizations.

You guys are still here? I thought you'd all had given up.

Ya, I believe it was the special teams coach and then Andy Reid looked upset at the fact the guy called it. I mean, Joe Buck new right away it was a wasted timeout so I don't think it's too much for Andy Reid to ask of his coaches to understand where you are in the game before using timeouts. In middle school, maybe you call a timeout but in the pros that was horrible.

Vikings haven't lost at home all year. Much smarter for the Boy's to not have to potentially travel to Philly.

LOL, I kind of like that analogy.

Wow you seem bright .

Bad D this half by Iggles.

 

[ScottyFargo]

Philly run D can't stop anything. The holding call is only delaying the inevitable.

 

[Ariakis]

Austin!

 

[ScottyFargo]

I can't wait to draft Miles Austin again for redraft next year.

 

[Ariakis]

Torn on wanting to see MB3 who looked good early and more of Felix who has also been strong.

 

[money.never.sleeps]

really need 6 here. Big 3rd down.

 

[scratcher]

Cowboys are exposing biggest hole in the Eagles D: bad coverage by LBs and inexperienced safeties.

 

[jkruppe]

Nobody cares, but I'd just like to say F Comcast. Here in Denver, only the stupid Bronco game is on TV and not even the Red Zone channel is working today due to some dispute with the NFL Network.

It's killing me not to see this game.

</rant>

 

[dickey moe]

Crayton!

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

Nice defense there.

 

[money.never.sleeps]

yea buddy!!!!

 

[fred_1_15301]

Eagles being exposed here on defense. Maclin drop killed them. I'm sure the haters are already calling for McNabb's head...........

Have some faith in your team man.

I agree. Although they haven't played anyone at home, I think their average margin of victory was around 25.

 

[Routilla]

We need to put the clamps on Philly here. If we can get the ball back and score again before halftime it would be money. Great job guys. Way to bounce back from the turnover.

Im sure that's not a bad thing , Usually plays much better after that lol

 

[Ariakis]

Way too early to chalk this one up but I'd MUCH rather play the Eagles again at home with a chance at another home game in the NFC Championship game than be the 6 seed. Stinks having to play the same team 3x all with huge stakes but so be it.

 

[Mike Crimes]

yeah man, know what im sayin? my boys is just strait doin the damn thing. prolly pretty sure they just toyin with dem birds too...

 

[Routilla]

I am assuming GB has the tie breaker against PHI should they get the 2 WC spots, right?

 

[dickey moe]

Cowboys secondary still scares the hell out of me.

 

[scratcher]

WTF

 

[Ariakis]

DJax on a linebacker? That's the risk to a zone blitz.

 

[jojoh07]

Ughh mcnabb

 

[Iwannabeacowboybaby!]

Now both teams are even with turnovers in the redzone.

 

[ScottyFargo]

Nice, timely turnover there.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Cowboys dodged a bullet there.

x2

 

[Andy Herron]

Dallas ball. So much for that.

Evens up the red zone turnover ratio.

Dammit. Joe Buck mentions it as I'm typing.

 

[money.never.sleeps]

nice turnover there.. points here could lock it up or least shatter philly hope.

 

[Routilla]

Need a score here, preferably a TD. PHI gets the ball to start the 3rd Q. We need a score in a big way here.

That's what yahoo playoff scenario generator shows.
