The Eagirls are clicking on all cylinders right now. They also just got Westbrook back as well. How many of you actually believe we're the stronger of the two teams at this point in time? I would like to believe so and, as a Boys fan, I refuse to believe any different. I believe the team has peaked at just the right time but do wonder about how well we'll match up against the Eagirls.

They're dialed in right now. Are we?

They blew a 17 pt lead today.

Imagine how this board would react if that was us.

They just coughed up a bone tonight at home against a slumping team where we pitched a road shutout and won by three scores. Who's dialed in again?

That's why they play the game.;)

You think we'd be more depressed than were are tonight after a 17-nil, berth-clenching road shutout?

I think we match up well with them....

The Eagles are a big play team and Dallas doesnt give up the big plays that often IMHO.

I dont think we can run on the Eagles .....so I hope our OL can handle that blitz and Romo is clicking.

We need to contain McFlabb and make him have some happy feet......McFlabb is always good for some throws in the dirt.

But the bottom line.......dont turn the ball over...

Considering the Eagles almost blew that game against the Broncos, I'm not ready to concede that they are head and shoulders better than the 'boys.

If you can shut down the big play against them, you can beat them. We did it once against them. Who knows, we may do it again.

I'm asking you. :D I would like to think both teams are dialed in. It would have been nice to have put the Skins away a little earlier but one cannot complain about a solid win. ;)

That short yardage game needs work though. We don't want it coming back to haunt us in the postseason.

Beating them in back to back weeks will be a tough chore. But we'll just have to take it one at a time and hope for the best. But if we split, I hope we take the second one. ;)

I have to say, I do hate the back-to-back. I really don't want to play up in Philly so I'm just going to hope we have it in us to sweep that back-to-back. I just don't feel good about that playoff game if the Cowboys let it go back to Philly.

Hey Bleu, you got the right to be happy you know ;)

Oh. No doubt. I'm ecstatic about where the team resides right now. I just see some deficiencies that I am sure are apparent to all of us. Hopefully they get fixed this week. The Skins are what they are (far from anything that might resemble what we'll face in the playoffs).

I'm very happy though. :D

Honestly, I think either the Cowboys or the Eagles are playing the best in the NFC right now. The Eagles are a bit overrated, but not by much. They're a very good team. I've got a lot of faith in our defense holding them to less than their season average. I'm less sure we can put up significant points on them. It'll be a three-point game, either way. Time to get the rest of our man back.

It's a tough situation either way. Lose and you play in Philly. Win and you have to do it all over again the next week. I always hate these possible back to back meetings regardless of who it is against. But Philly does make it that much harder.

If we beat them 3 times in a year, that would be sooooo sweet. :D
