I have read a number of people literally laugh at the idea of us beating Philly. It makes me wonder, if you truly feel that way, why bother posting on the board? Why watch the games? This is a young team. We're going to have some up's and downs. So far I think it's safe to say the games so far have been entertaining. Philly is possibly the best team in the league. But we're playing them at home. I think we match up pretty well. A few breaks and we win the game IMO. People have every right to post their opinions, positive or negative but if you think the team has no shot it strikes me as a major waste of time to follow it closely. Just MO.

Dude, just because you think your team has no shot against one particular team on one particular Sunday you are intimating that you aren't fit to be a fan? For LIFE? Give me a break. Talk about homerism...

That's not what I said. I'm not judging anyone. I'm just asking why would you bother investing a lot of time into your team if you think winning a home game against any team is laughable? Just a question. No need to get your panties in a bunch. Noone yet knows what the potential of this team is. Lots of people gave us no shot to win in SD. Probably laughed at the idea. Oh well. If you want to laugh at your team this is America, yuk yuk away.

I think this team will serve itself well by keeoing thegame close. If they lose by 3-10 they can bouch back with a good showing vs. NYG.

But a blowout - loss by 14+ - will not bode well for the nest few weeks.

There are no moral victories in the NFL. Only wins and losses. NE just lost by 24. Does that "not bode well" for them? No, you play 'em one at a time at at the end of the year they add up the W's. This is a home game against the top team in our division. We need a W.

Thank you....goes to show how used to 5-11 or 6-10 fans have become.

Personally this is NOT a rebuilding team...we got the pieces and spent money to win NOW! We have some young players, but they are pretty dang good too. We have enough vet and rookie mix to win NOW! Our offense is not made of Rooks, with Petitti the only exception...who is playing pretty good considering.

Bacuase Payton is a wuss and scared we are 2-2 rather then 4-0...JMHO :rolleyes:

I think we have passed Filthy in terms of talent on the field...
I think they hold a major edge in terms of Off. & Def. coaching...

Unless we make some changes, zimmy isn't smart enough to stop them...And we would have to score 28 to win...

I do have an idea on how to beat them though...
(Another post) :cool:

You people need to get a grip. I have an idea.

Dont watch the Eagles game

Go shopping w/ the wife/girlfriend

Go visit your folks - you know you dont do it enough. Better yet. Go visit her folks.

Paint your house - its nearly winter

Change the oil in your beater Volvo/Subaru

Go outside and play w/ your kids - wait - play w/ your kids AND the neighbors kids

Finish burning those April Wine Greatest hits from LP to CD


Anything !!!! but STOP CRYING ABOUT THE EAGLES

if the eagles play bad and we play good, we could win. if they play good and we play good, it should be interesting. if they play bad and we play bad it could be close and interesting, but ugly. if they play good and we play bad, then i'd end up wishing i had just washed the car or gone hiking or to the matinee or anything...
we won't know till they play the game, and that's why they play the game...

We held Oak to one TD and I believe were getting better. What this team needs is some home cookin' after playing 3 of 4 on the road. We played Philly very well in Philly last year and I think emotions will be running high. We really need this one.

No doubt we are underdogs but I think Dallas has a chance if we can cut down on mistakes. I just can't join the crowd that says no way we can win, I don't have a defeatist attitude as so many around here have.

Win or Lose - I'll have my lucky Cowboy's pants on. That's better than the alternative.

I am in the same boat you are my friend. I barely turn on WIP any more here in philly because i am sick of hearing how this is the greatest team to ever take the field. At least Desperate Housewives comes on Sunday night and my depression will be shortlived due to Eva Longoria and her teddies.
