Bob Grotz of Delco Time: Eagles look tired and the bottom to fall out

[Maikeru-sama]

Came in on the very last portion of 610 WIP interview with reporter Bob Grotz of The Delcom Times.

Bob Grotz: When I went to practice, I just felt that the Eagles looked tired. The Coach was in a grumpy mood and the team looks like the bottom is ready to fall out. The loss against the Cowboys was huge. The Eagles were riding a 6 Game winning streak and when they lost to the Cowboys, it took away all the momentum. I believe in the 2 Games against the Cowboys, the Eagles have had 21 possessions and only 1 Touchdown.

 

[YosemiteSam]

I refuse to believe the Eagles and just going to lay down.

 

[Hostile]

It is extremely hard to play back to back games on the road. Against a winning team it is even harder. In a playoff atmosphere it is even harder.

They are near falling apart. We are coming together. We need to protect the football and just take care of business. Nothing cute is needed. Just execute.

Eagles will be ready to play Saturday. This game will go down to the wire and turnovers will be the difference.

I'll say this. It's a huge boon for the Cowboys that Brian Dawkins is no longer in Philly. He was extremely smart player, but he could really motivate his team too. I saw Westbrook trying to do it last Sunday and the Eagles didn't respond on the field.

Exactly. No trick plays, just punch them in the mouth.

With Andy Reid coaching on the other side, you had better expect a trick play or two. I've seen him run surprise onside kicks several times. He started a game in Dallas once with one.

 

[HoosierCowboy]

I hope they quit and begin pointing fingers and yelling and rolling up in fetal positions and crying--but I doubt it will happen. But if you pause for a minute and just visualize that--how wonderful.

It is all about the first quarter Hos. We jump out to a first quarter lead and punch them in the mouth early, then we should cruise to an easy win. We let them score first or make some mistakes with turnovers we will be in a dog fight. Our heroes cannot let the Eagles have any momentum early.

They're also on a short week after playing an away game.

I was talking about the Cowboys. We need to play straight forward smash
mouth.

 

[viman96]

I want this win for so many reasons and near the top of my list is slamming the door closed on the Eagles season.

 

[CliffnDallas]

Classic disinformation.

 

[Maikeru-sama]

Classic disinformation.

This guy was dead serious.

He told the host of the radio show that the Eagles flat out look done.

 

[Doomsday101]

I don't think Philly will lay down but I do think if Dallas gets on them quick in this game that Philly will wilt.

 

[adbutcher]

Early adversity for the iggles will spell doom. Two perfect scenarios, we get the ball first, score, and pitch a three and out. Second scenario, the iggles get the ball first, we create a sack fumble, and score on a short field. If any of the aforementioned scenarios occur it will be a early curtain call for the beakless iggles.

If they experience early success we could be in for a fight. We must take their will early, they will raise the white flag the first chance they get. We just got to give them the opportunity.

Wasn't that the one where we got it and ran it in for a touch?

 

[adbutcher]

It is hard to get up for a game when you know in your heart of hearts that your opposition is better then you are. After the emotions of the opening kick off subsides and reality sets in, it can be crushing. The Boyz just got to provide the proverbial feather.
