ESPN NFCE Eagles Blogger: Brady's suspension unfair to rest of the NFCE

[5Stars]

Well as the Eagles band would sing in their song Get Over It.

Oh, dude...that reminds me, I need to go listen to that song! Thanks!

I just raised the iggles fans a notch on my list of D-bags. And now I pause for a little humorous thought...

I'm telling u man the media is becoming the cowboys #1 enemy.

Great song and no problem. I thought it was fitting for this topic and for those who are upset we didn't draft a RB.

Leave it to an Eagles fan to cry about it

Phil Sheridan blogs for ESPN NFCE Philadelphia Eagles. In the article below he attempts (IMO whines) about how unfair it is the Cowboys will not have to face Brady but the rest of the division will.

PHILADELPHIA -- The debate in New England and elsewhere is whether Tom Brady's suspension is fair and what impact it will have on the AFC East race.

But what about the NFC East? The two divisions match up this year, which means each of the four teams in the AFC East plays each of the four teams in the NFC East during the season. The Dallas Cowboys, the defending NFC East champions, are scheduled to host the Patriots on Oct. 11.

That will be the fourth and final game of Brady’s suspension. There’s no getting around it. Brady’s absence gives the Cowboys a huge advantage in that game. And since the other three NFC East teams will have to play the Patriots with Brady, that gives Dallas a huge advantage in the NFC East race, as well.

Blah blah blah...

So the impact on the NFC East figures to be greater than the impact on the AFC East, even with Brady being unavailable for four games. The Patriots will likely be favored in two to three of those games: against Buffalo, Jacksonville and possibly Pittsburgh. Without Brady, they will likely be underdogs against Dallas.

Blah blah blah...

This year, thanks to the NFL, the Cowboys catch a break when they play the Patriots. The Eagles very likely catch a beating.

How will Brady's absence give an "8-8" team a huge advantage? I just don't get it.

Did he complain when they scheduled the Cowboys 3 toughest games with the opposing team getting extra rest... if not he shouldn't complain now.

Im sure they'll be carefully checking the air pressure in the balls during the games, so brady will suck. This is a disadvantage for dallas.

 

[Flinger]

Eagle fans must be unaware of our heritage that makes 2nd string, benched, obscure and unknown QB's realize their childhood dreams by playing the games of their lives to defeat the Dallas Cowboys on the national stage.

I'd rather face Brady...

lol

 

[popp1234]

Philly fans starting their excuses earlier than normal this season!

Yes, and I swear I have never seen a fanbase more obsessed with another team like the Eagles are with the Cowboys...and it's extremely entertaining and satisfying.

 

[Risen Star]

Yeah, that's the way these things go. Deal with it. You got an easier schedule to start, Philly puke.

 

[jday]

I just raised the iggles fans a notch on my list of D-bags. And now I pause for a little humorous thought...

That's an insult to D Baggs, which you should probably take back since we just signed him today!

They consider that as fair, however, because they are the good guys and Jerry Jones is the devil.

Check the spelling... that was D-bags, not D Baggs. Got it? Thanks that was worth a giggle anyway.

Pun was intended, despite the spelling liberties I took.

Agree with your premise, the media despises the fact that the most popular team in the most popular sport resides in the state most media types despise

 

[dogunwo]

Wait, is this one of those "I want them at full strength!" things?

Screw that, lets just get the win. There will be plenty of film on Tom Brady for us to study later if we get to the Superbowl against them.

 

[Hardline]

Let's be perfectly honest.
If the shoe was on the other foot, we would be whining just like the eagles.
Myself excluded.

I have never understood that mindset.

It just sounds like mindless bravado.

If you told me that all twelve teams we play next season would have Stephen Hawking dropping back to pass, I would laugh and take it.

But there would still be some person bitter that they could not stomp them at "full strength".

yes, a lot of this is political.
