Eagles vs Saints - Divisional Round - GG: GL Saints, Hope you Win it all! (2 Viewers)

Apple had been pretty solid in New Orleans so far. Seems NFC East fans don’t respect him even a little bit, though.

Terron Armstead practiced in full and was removed from the injury report  :pickle:

EDIT: Actually, all the Saints’ offensive linemen got in in full practices today. I know they’re all playing with accumulated scrapes & bruises, but I’m glad they’ll all be available for Sunday.

Lol pretty much everyone I talked today told me this. Awesome news.

 
Surprising storyline about tomorrow's game: 

Drew Brees went to Austin Westlake HS here in Texas where he set lots of school records. 10 years later another kid broke most of those QB records at the same High School. His name was Nick Foles.

What’s the what’s the story with Jason Peters?

He's a Hall of Famer first Ballot. Usually gets hurt about 2-3 plays a game. Good for at least one offsides a game. Otherwise he will straight up dominate the left side of the line. Nick doesn't have to worry about his backside.

I was just curious if he’s playing, it sounds like he is.

♦ Since 2006, when Sean Payton and Drew Brees joined forces in New Orleans as coach and quarterback, the Saints are 5-0 in home postseason games. The Saints hold the NFC’s No. 1 seed and the road to the Super Bowl in the conference will run through the Superdome.

♦ Dating back to 2009, the Saints have won four of their last five against the Eagles, including a 2014 tilt in the wild-card round that was played in Philadelphia.

♦ New Orleans had a scoring margin of plus-151 in the regular season, most in the entire NFL. The Eagles tied for 12th with plus-19, the second lowest of all teams to make the postseason.

Does anyone know the playoff records of Payton and Brees at home, and also what are Pederson and Foles record post season? Can't find it anywhere. Asking for a friend....😂

Can you do the last 5 games for each? The teams are obviously way different.  🤔

Yea I'm not encouraged by this development. Like I said Eagles have to play perfect and hope the Saints are just good and not great to have a chance. Going to be a tough one for the defending champs.

 
My palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy. There's vomit on my sweater already, mom's spaghetti. I’m nervous, on the surface I don’t look calm or ready.

^Pretty much sums me up right now 

 
The Eagles best chance is the Oline getting the upper hand and scoring first. Foles has shown to play big in big games so this is all possible.

I'm calm man. Just like last week. If we win, cool. If not, I'm happy we made a go at defending our title instead of being done before we even got the chance.

Yep. I'd love to win it and am expecting Foles to keep us in it. Just don't want a blowout unless we winning. 😁

 
Defense steps up big.  Dline gets pressure on Brees, keeps contain on Kamara and forces Brees to make some mistakes.  Think Maddox has a pivotal int and Foles steps up in big in this big situation.  Birds shock the world.  

31-28

I’m with you man. I’m feeling positive! But the score gotta be lower. 27-23 Birds!

 
cynthia frelund has 29-23 Saints.  I guess I have a hard time not seeing the Saints getting a few big TDs against us.  Maybe Schwartz will be able to execute this bend but don't break scheme and prevent that.  Will be interesting to see how aggressive Doug gets.  super bowl redux?

 
Crank it.

This should be playing in the Louisiana Superdome today. I'm heading to the tailgate now. This should be the best meeting the best today, I am really looking forward to it. I have only met great Eagles fans and the team has fantastic tradition. 

My biggest concerns today: Tate and Sproles.

My biggest hopes today: the Saints run game is working to the max, Ingram and Kamara on the ground all day long behind a fully constituted O-Line.

Ok, break.

Can you ship me a Sazerac real quick?

 
@JimmyKempski: Saints are serving meatballs in the press box. The Eagles are 1-0 in 2019 playoff games when the opponent serves meatballs in the press box. (Bears had them last week too.)

 
Can there really be ALL bye teams in the conference championships?  Only happened once since 2005. (2016)

Stuff like this may send ZenoRazon running to his bookie to change his bets!

Sure -- every game is an independent event. Nothing that happened in the previous three divisional playoff games this weekend will have any affect on Eagles @ Saints.

Yes, but I think Payton and Brees are 3-1 in the playoffs at home. That's a pretty good record.

 
Yes all the bye teams will win.

Like the other games this weekend, this one won't really be in doubt heading into the 4th quarter. I want to be wrong, pretty bummed at lack of tight games this week, but Saints are going to roll them.
