See Red Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 In 2002, your defense was the 4th best in the league, statistically. This year, it's not. So it's not the best defense you've had the last 3 years.The 3rd team basically shut down the Rams? Um... excuse me, but you gave up 419 yards to the Rams... but um... ok, sure, whatever.Were goin to the Bowl, Baby!!!!!Please, Eagles fans. Do us a favor -- talk your crap AFTER you win a big game. It'll save you a lot of trouble after you get beat up on in the NFC Championship game. The way I see it, Philadelphia should NEVER be the favorites in a big game... ever.How far do you expect to go relying on a WR like Todd Pinkston who avoids any type of physical contact?

CaolinaJoe Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 All this talk about D is purely subjective and personal.Total D Philly ranks #10-NFL, #3-NFCSince this has turned into pretty much a homer page hear are some numbers:vs. over .500 teamsGB- 3-3PHI- 3-3ATL- 4-2DEN-3-4vs. under .500 teamsGB- 7-3PHI- 10-0ATL- 7-3DEN- 7-2Pass DGB- #25PHI- #12ATL- #22DEN- #6Rush DGB- #14PHI- #16ATL- #9DEN- #4Scoring DGB- #23PHI- #3ATL- #14DEN- #93rd Down DGB- #9PHI- #12ATL- #14DEN- #3Opponents Overall RecordGB- 116-140PHI- 116-140ATL- 111-145DEN- 124-132What does all this mean? Absolutely nothing except, IMO, of the 4 teams being so hotly debated here Dever seems to have the best D. They also did it against a better caliber of opponets. All teams are basically even against decent teams. Philly definitely did their job and beat the teams they should, going 10-0 against losing teams.Offensively Green Bay, Philly & Denver all place in the Top 10. Atlanta on the other hand ranked #20.This all makes me say one more time, Green Bay in the Super Bowl. Best O, worst D. Favre who has done it before. They'll either win big or lose really ugly. But Favre will keep on slinging.Philly flopp again. #2 D, #3 O. TO out kills them. McNabb to choke again. And whoever said McNabb is over-rated is lost. He's definitely one of the best. He's a top passer and when needed can tuck it and go. But without TO the D's can key on him and Westbrook too easily.Denver only made the conversation because they were the only AFC team mentioned. They aren't gonna make it by Pittsburgh or NE. I like them against Indy though.Atlanta, worst O and #3 D. Most over-rated player in the game. One and done.

IceCap Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Id listen to you if you knew what you were talking about. Eagles are done? They still are the favorites without TO. That doesnt mean a SB is guaranteed. Come back when you know football a little bit. The Eagles are still the favorites? What exactly are you basing this on?Favorites to lose a 4th straight NFC Championship game? Vegas. And they are of course the #1 seed. ya, thanks to TO.

It doesnt matter about yds and all that crap. Pts allowed is what counts...And those stats are misleading because of our backups playing the last 2 games....

HES NOT EVEN THE BEST QB IN THE NFC PLAYOFFS!This is definitely a homer thread if people are picking GB. Do I really expect you to make a smart pick? naw.O and Packers arent gonna make it past ATL.

epper Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 eaglefan, i love how you say that "upsets DO happen" when talking about your beloved eagles in the SB, but theyre absolutely IMPOSSIBLE when the packers or falcons play the eagles.just when i thought eagles fans couldnt get any more arrogant, the thread continues to amaze me.

OB33 Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 Personally, I think ppl hate Philly cuz in the last 4 years they have blown more championships than Phoenix, Cleveland, and Cincinnati ever have combined.St. Joe's, Smarty Jones, Eagles 3 times, Sixers against the lakers, The Flyers every year, and how 'bout them Phillies? I'd keep going but my fav QB is Manning (couldn't beat Spurrier) and I live close to Wahington D.C. and that DC stands for don't choke.
