anabolicrhino said:Maybe I have seen to much WWF, or have read to many conspiracy theories on line, because this seems like the most pre-orchestrated, scripted week of NFL soap opera that I can remember. Owens is the one pro bowler on the Eagles who is actually having a pro bowl year. The Eagles were dead in the water last week pinned on their own 9 yardline. One play later T.O. had every body believing that the Eagles could win the game. He was beating Champ Bailey like a rented mule. Mcnabb's goaline interception was as bad a decision as he has made in two years. The defense folded in the fourth quarter. Hood makes two bad plays, game over. Andy Reid completely out coached on both sides of the ball. Mcnabb is still trying to figure why Denver has 9 men in the box. If anyone should applogize to Donavan it's the offensive line. Now instead of discussing why the Eagles took such a beating(altitude or attitude?), The whole world, mostly ESPN is talking about T.O. First his mystery ankle injury(play,notplay,play). Then his comments about what Michael Irvin said(would the Eagles be better with an old Fave vs an injured Mcnabb?...yeah maybe) I though it was kind of strange that both the network and the stadium crowd showed little interest in Owens scoring his 100th td recption only 5 guys have ever done it. Now I have been an Eagle fan since 1976. The one thing I have learned about the Andy Reid years is that the Eagles don't play that money **** with anybody (duce staley,trotter douglas,westbrook and owens, corey simon) Speak out against the team and you get bitch slapped! However, there is no way the Eagles are a better team with out T.O. He is open on almost every play. He is the only one on the team with the balls to get in Donavan's face and tell him to wake up and play football. If a healthy Mcnabb could get him the ball he would have 50 catches and 10 tds by now. He does some stupid things, like that Michael Irvin jersey after the Cowboys loss..WTF? But lets get some hardware first, then cut him. Well, at least we will get to see the Eagles run the ball this week.
anabolicrhino said:Okay he only rented him 2 times for 137 yards and a touchdown. but he faked him out so bad on the touchdown play. You just don't see that very often at the NFL level. The first half coverages were combos and twists. Bailey had help both inside and underneath. Once the Broncos were up by 4 tds they went to a single lock down. Mcnabb saw this and well 91 yards later, you know the rest. The very next offensive play resulted in a 46 yard gain to Owens once again in single coverage. That was the last time Bailey had him in man to man. The Broncos went back to combination covers . No more big plays.
Sir Foxx said:I don't think you watched last weeks game. Champ Bailey shut TO down in the first half, and then gave up a couple(big time plays, but 2 nonetheless) to TO. That is not being "beaten like a rented mule", it's more like he should have done a lot more considering that Bailey is playing with a bad hamstring.
EEmain said::box: TO :box: 100 TD`s :box: New contract
CEDeoudes59 said:Eagles need to block for McNabb and run a lot more... they will be fine if they do these things. In the offseason they better bring in a veteran wideout and draft one. The NFC is wide open - and especially the NFC East (advantage Giants) - they don't need to give up on this season.
for the sake of my fantasy team they had better not give up
Bobo said:They look tired. Very tired.
anabolicrhino said:...okay, Westbrook got his money. Now it is time to put up. I'm looking for about 200 yards in offense and at least 2 tds. Maybe T.O. has the wrong agent.:lol:
CEDeoudes59 said:they need to run Gordon more to rest Westbrook - they just need to run more period
oh and McNabb isn't scrambling this year - that's a problem
anabolicrhino said:I would take Ben Franklin throwing to Rocky Balboa, If that's what it takes to get a SuperBowl championship. I live in NYC and have heard 20 years of "...how many superbowls have the Eagles won?" T.O. might be a selfish douche, but that's still better then the "smelly pussies" that the Eagles used to have at his position. Does any one remember the "stink" of the Eagles offense in NFC championship losses of 2002 and 2003? It was the kind of stink you never forget.:aargh:
Said team president Joe Banner, "We are very happy to reach an agreement with Brian on this extension. There is no question he's a vital part of our team and we have always maintained a strong desire to get a deal done with Brian. He's a good representative of this team on and off the field and we're happy to have him in Philadelphia for the next several years."
EEmain said:And now they can move on to extending Michael Lewis.
This would be a great time for the Eagles secondary to come correct. Lewis is due for a big game. I would like to see
Dawkins step up. He was one of the players who confronted Owens.This is a perfect opportunity to show the rest of the NFL, that no matter how much **** you have to flush, the Eagles still know how to play football
Bobo said:Exactly.
Sir Foxx said:Whatever. Bailey had him one on one at least 7 times that I counted, and only 2 of those did TO do anything. Once again I reiterate, Bailey is playing with a bad hamstring. Doesn't really matter though as much as the final score 49-21.:lol:
EEmain said:That would mean 28% of the time Bailey covers TO. He gets smoked...
EEmain said:I heard you the first 2x. He wasn`t even the best corner on the Skins...
But now that he is a Bronco he is all that?
Let me ask you something, and be honest now. Did you get sphincter spasms thinking back to the "Broncos Fold" thread untill Hood slipped on third down?:wave:

Bobo said::lol:
God..I can't believe someone is actually talking about Champ Bailey.
Bobo said:Then go make a thread about Champ Bailey so we can all laugh at you.
Oh boy we're gonna make fun of you when the Colts end up in the Super Bowl after they harass Denver in the Divisional RoundSir Foxx said:I never doubt my Broncos. We will be in the SB this year
Sir Foxx said:Laugh at what? Don't be bitter because your team is in disarray.

Sir Foxx said:I never doubt my Broncos. We will be in the SB this year. As for Bailey not being the best corner on the skins, well, I just have to say is put the pipe down and step away. It is obviously affecting your judgement:duel:
'EEmain said:Yes he was sooooo much better than
Smoot... that the Skins moved him. And then replaced the irreplaceable one with Springs.
Let me guess you probably thought Portis was the next comimng of Sanders untill he left ?:toofunny:
Anyhow Bobos right... why talk about
Chump... you will see in time.
