Philly radio is already saying Reid has decided to rest the starters next week. Kind of ticks me off. If we are going to win I want it to mean something especially at the cost of what could be 6 draft spots. Now we may win a meaningless game for both teams and find ourselves sitting outside the top 10 come April.:bang2:
 
We should put in our young players to evaluate them, need to evaluate players as well as Jason IMO.

Doesnt take anything away from it for me. I hope we kick the crap out of them. Makes no difference who they dont play.

We're missing key guys too, nobody cares about that.
 
Newsflash we are missing our QB and maybe our best WR, among others. A win is a win, and I will love it if we beat them.
 
I really wanted some season ending shots at Vick, but his pounding tonight was well worth it. Still would have loved some shots at him again.
 
Umm so they still have one of better backup QB's in the NFL... He's probably going to light up that Dallas secondary.

Exactly, splittling the division with the year we had this year wouldn't be so bad. They are still eagles regardless.

It is also a great chance to look at McGee in a full game after a week of prep.
 
Oh yeah? Well, we'll be playing our STARTERS next week so take that.

(Our starters haven't been very good this year)

Winning this game seriously drops us in the draft order (from 6th to like 12th ??). I know you don't play to lose but winning this game hurts the franchise. I say you can't possibly risk Kitna, McGee comes down with a mysterious staph infection this week, and we hand the reins to the 34-year old Arena League guy we just signed.

I doubt we'll drop that far. I dont even think we'd fall out of the top-10.
 
I say perfect opportunity to play the young guns. McGee, Lee and Young should play the whole game really.

As far as the draft, I could never cheer for the Cowboys to lose.

Pretty much what I came in to post. I almost want to say give Brandon Williams and Victor Butler a whirl too.
 
Oh well, Kolb always has that little smirk on his face. He needs to get slapped around, too.

But seriously, I'm not talking any smack. The Eagles' second team might be better than the Cardinals' first team.
 
Does not matter. Kolb will start and have a career day just like every other QB our secondary faces.
 
So to be realistic...Jason Garret's record as a HC is actually 4-3

Whoever was talking about .500 HC can now look for something else to
discredit him


:cool:
 
Regardless of what the Eagles do, it would please me immensely if Garrett got some of our younger guys playing time for evaluation purposes. Those young guys completely wiping the field with whatever team the Eagles put out there would be the icing.

easily unless the slew of 5-10 teams we sit with now pull off some wins as well.

I can still mean something...

Dallas win + Giants win = Commanders finish in the cellar I think.

Both teams would be 6-10 but Dallas would have a 3-3 division record and Commanders would have a 2-4 division record.

Can somebody clear this up ?
 
God I hope so.

My FF opponent had Vick and Jackson and its the
Championship game.

I have McCoy but I'll have to make due with what I got.
