OAK vs. PHI (HoF) Game Thread.

Offensive line doesn't explain Westbrook breaking tackles on every running play. Oakland's Run Defense suuuuuuuuuuuuucks.

or explans him fallng down and getting up and stumbing another 10 yards,

There is little doubt that the Raiders suck.

But there is also no good reason that the Eagles won't be at least as good as they were in 2003. Their line is probably better, they are back to being a completely high character team (no more TO or Corey Simon).

Their trenches are stacked.

And McNabb is healthy.

How this team gets written off just because all the rest of us are better is beyond me.

 

[Crown Royal]

Oh yeah - Reid collects lineman like Tuna collects TEs.

I kinda wish we would do that. Maybe we will now, since our skill positions are OK.

 

[maloy]

The Eagles look back to me so far. Great blocking up front. I tell you this team isn't dead yet. They could surprise a lot of people.

How can a team look "back" after one series of a preseason game?
Well we know who will overreact one way or another after the cowboys first series.

Raiders 13-35 since losing the Super Bowl to Tampa, tied with the 49ers for worst record in the NFL in that time span.

Sucks to live in the Bay area huh?

The Cowboys OLine can't look that crisp for one day in TC. If they can do the first series in preseason that way, I'm buying tickets to the SuperBowl in August.

To think Robert Gallery was the first pick overall.

 

[dargonking999]

nah, it doesnt kind of suck, its absolutley horrid

LOL

I just got accused of over reacting.

That's a first.

 

[Cochese]

Robert Gallery with a textbook lookout block.

Please calm down folks and repeat after me...

"The Eagles Still Suck."

 

[Crown Royal]

A big LOL to whoever the Raider's RT is.

There is no shame in Kearse beating you with his speed or moves.

But when he just flat bull rushes you, lift some weights son!

No he wasn't. 2nd overall behind Eli Manning in 2004.

 

[BlueStar22]

Retire Warren Sapp.

 

[Roughneck]

......and Donnie is alread out.

 

[Crown Royal]

On a side note (and Maddens just took the words out of my mouth) - great pickup by Philly on Garcia. Great match. Very good insurance in case McNabb gets injured again.

 

[BlueStar22]

No he wasn't. 2nd overall behind Eli Manning in 2004.

It's still bad.

 

[sacase]

Ok what's the point in celebrating when they got an 11 yard gain.

 

[Hostile]

That pass was ugly.

 

[sacase]

Lord Garcia sucked on that pass, threw it in teh dirt like 15 yards in front of the receiver.

 

[Crown Royal]

It's still bad.

The offensive line takes longer to develop than any position in football - including QB.
