Moron from Philly

---------------------------------

I really wish someone would stuff about 12 cheesesteaks right down this guy's throat!

The funniest part is that he has the biggest choker QB in the game running his team and he's trying to bark at Romo.

:bang2:

 

[AmishCowboy]

He's a guy who needs Schtick, His Radio show is all about getting the Philadelphia Fans Riled up, most of the Time he's a Eagle Company man and if you disagree with him, well then your a Genuis.

i think every major city has their 1 bayless. i just don't give a crap what a shockjock says. fighting is the only thing keeping them employed.

How many times can a guy bring up no playoff wins? Romo has only played in two playoff games. Two!! He has not lost 12 playoff games in a row like they make it sound.

I'm making this post without listening to Reid's offical *** wiper.

He knows how special Romo is and hates it like poison.

I agree. He would trade McFlabb for Romo in a heartbeat.

It was interesting how when they said Romo is definitely better than McNabb, ole Eskin didn't have much to say at that moment.

typical cowboy hater. nothing new to me. what sucks is he is right. romo and wade are winless in playoff games. and we havent won when it mattered for a long time.

this is what makes football so much fun!

Yeah, but the guy always try's to cover for Reid and Mcflabb. He predicted those clowns would go 12-4 last season and when the fans called him out on it he started backtracking. The guys is the biggest mouthpiece and homers for the e-girls. In his mind the e-girls have never been beaten, instead they beat themselves. His show is pure comedy if you want to listen to a bunch of idiots. Eskin is a punk.

Playoff wins are nice, but surely that kind of measureable success can only really be measured in SuperBowl wins no?

You either win it all or you lose somewhere along the way.

In that case last year the only succesful QB was the village idiot, and if thats the case I'd rather take a QB's worth based on his entire season's play as opposed to a couple of streaky games in the playoff.

For however many playoff wins McFlabb has, he doesn't have the all important measurable of a superbowl win. And it's not like he hasn't had his chances.

But if there is one case that as of right now, eagle fans can make, and we can't is that there QB has won playoff games, and lead his team to the SB ..even without T.O

You can complain, whine, moan, and make excuses, but thats the fact. And until Romo wins a playoff game, it will be held against him.

And what bigger playoff, Championship Game, and Super Bowl choker is there than Donovan McNabb?

That guy epitomizes coming up smallest when it counts most.

And he's proven that in a lot more than two playoff games.

fair enough, but the complaints should be minimal from a team who's not won a superbowl, wouldn't you think?

Yes he has, but they could say the same of Romo's last two playoff games, regardless of whether or not it is of validity. Not to mention, McNabb has been where Romo hasn't.

Of course, but when comparing QB's, that won't matter.

At least to eagle fans.

And that can somehow be used in the discussion?

That McNabb has sucked in bigger moments than Romo has?

How about McNabb's 'big game' record?

'02 Conference Championship 1 TD 1 INT
'03 Conference Championship 1 TD 1 INT
'04 Conference Championship 0 TD 3 INT
'05 Super Bowl 3 TD 3 INT

The guy has consistantly proven he plays his worst when his team needs him most.

Romo has a 2 TD to 1 INT ratio by comparison. He hasn't put up big numbers, but his QB play didn't directly cost his team victory like McNabb's has.

Of course, but when comparing QB's, that won't matter.

At least to eagle fans.

And of course Eskin continued to try to downplay the value of wide receivers.

Why do you think that was?

Because now have the only good one the Eagles have had in decades?

Because now the Eagles sport one of the league's worst receiving corps?

Again, im not trying to say he is right, or that the argument is valid. But the argument can be made, because whether or not he sucked, whether or not he showed up doesn't matter. He got the team there, something again Romo has yet to do.

If Mcnabb throws 4 INT's but throws his only TD pass to win the game, while Romo throws 4 TD's but throws the INT that costs his team a victory,

would it really matter the TD to INT ratio. Or would it matter who got the W.

Mcnabb has won in the post season, Romo has not, and that will be held against him till he does. No matter what arugment you pose, that will be the counter argument.

They can 'counter argue' all they want.

They'll tell themselves whatever they need to in order to feel better.

Doesn't make it true.

I'm sure it's got to hurt that Romo has made the past two Pro Bowls while McNabb hasn't.

I'm sure it hurts that the Cowboys have made the playoffs the past two seasons while they haven't.

I'm sure it hurts that the Cowboys are on the rise while the Eagles are on the decline.

And you know what?

Too bad.

Mcnabb and the Eagles had their day, and that day has passed.

It's now Romo and the Cowboys' time.

And hopefully, they'll capitalize on their opportunity where the Eagles failed.

Actually the Eagles made the playoffs two years ago, along with the Division Crown.

And I'm sure its Hurt Romo that He's been sitting at home watching more playoff games then he's played in the last two seasons.

And to your last point, The eagles may be on the decline but they can say that they made it to the superbowl during there high time. The cowboys have been 0-2 during there rise.

You hope they can do better, but until they do, All we can say is we've beaten you at Lincoln Field twice in row.
