Did McNabb say the Cowboys Eagles game was a setup game & they always beat us 2nd gam

[cowboyjoe]

someone told me that on espn mcnabb was saying that the eagles mainly play us on simple plays, no gimmicks etc, to see how we are going to play them, so they can tear us up in the 2nd game.

did anyone hear that?

how do you feel about mcnabb popping off how they are going to tear us up in 2nd game, etc,

 

[CoachHodnett]

If that's the case, I wonder how they played Oakland?

 

[Joe Realist]

I think they try to beat us no matter when we play. The trend though, has been, they make adjusments, particulary defensively and beat us in the second game. It happened in 2006, 2007, 2008. WE scored substantially less points than the first meeting and lost all 3.

2006 1st game = 24
2006 2nd game = 7

2007 1st game = 38
2007 2nd game = 6

2008 1st game = 41
2008 2nd game = 6

2009 1st game = 20
2009 2nd game = ???????????

I would have to see actual proof of him saying it, but I doubt it's the case (referring to what he said) because all division games are important and there coaching staff is idiotic if they play the first game similar to a preseason game.

 

[Gaede]

that doesn't really make much sense. why throw a game?

man i hope we whoop the eagles in the last game...just flat out embarras them and beat the crap out of mcnabb all day long...that'd be a really sweet way to enter the playoffs

great post, maybe its something for our offensive coordinator and head coach to be prepared for, that final game this year could be the game of the century for the playoffs

Larry stirring up trouble again?

yeah he is a big chicken because he wont post, and he has an account to post

again, i didnt hear this, but thought this if we can find it like dc or theebs on fox or espn, that we can use that as bulletin board material

with mcnabb popping off

It will be time to break out the flea-flicker.

the difference is this year they have a new DC who is a moron. he has blitzed so much so early this season that all the film is out there for everyone to see. Jim Johnson used to play a rather vanilla defense against us in the 1st meetings and bring major heat in the 2nd meetings. this new DC for Philly has been blitzing crazy since the 1st game of the season. because of that i've been real interested to see how the NFCE teams do against Philly mainly their defense the 2nmd time around. in the 1st meeting against Washington Philly dominated their offense. the 2nd time around Washington dropped 24 on Philly's defense in Philly. If Campbell wasn't such a stupid qb the skins probably would've won.

 

[WarDaddy]

I think Garrett has learned from years past and did the same thing this year that McNabb is allegedly claiming.

I feel the same about the Skins game AND the first Giants game. I expect the division to see a bunch of Bennett and plays to Felix in December, especially in the Eagles game.

After he was confused about drawing games in the NFL I stopped listening to anything he said.

I think they have some problems of their own. Their defense just gave up 24 points to a very poor Commander team at home with Portis out of the lineup. McNabb can talk all he wants but the eagles have some issues to overcome before they face Dallas

yeah but my point is, if mcnabb did say that, wouldnt that be great bulletin board stuff for us?

 

[JBond]

MCFlabb is unable to comprehend even the very basics of NFL rules so who really cares what this brain dead child says?

 

[Doomsday101]

I don't buy to much into bulletin board stuff to begin with. Once the ball is kicked off all that talk means nothing. As for getting up for the game they are philly a divisional rival that alone is a reason for the Cowboys to be up and ready for the game.

Screw the bulletin board,,, just make sure that Garrett and Phillips are aware that they need to throw in some major changeup.(if they haven't planned this already) Maybe this time around Garrett and Phillips are setting up Reid
