Philly is the better team, admit it.

Their defense is much better than ours. Our defense was exposed all day. We have some secondary problems and we don't have enough pressure on the QB when not blitzing.

Their QB is a hell of a lot better than ours. He actually knows how to make a defense pay for blitzing landing his deep throws to receivers not named TO or Glenn with 1-on-1 coverage.

Their offensive line is better. It can actually handle the blitz.

Their coaches are better. They knew the weakness of our team:the offensive line and Bledsoe. They exploited it.

I think the running backs are a draw. Westbrooks is a different type of player than Julius Jones but we don't have a franchise runner on this team. Both teams have a little bit of a committee approach. Push.

Oh yeah.... we have better receivers. Probably close to $20 million in salary going to TO, Glenn and Witten this year. Who cares when your QB can't get the ball to 'em?

Props to the people who predicted an Eagles resurgence this year. They were right. Eagles are going to win the NFC East. We'll get a wildcard at best.

For those who have always dogged Donovan McNabb, and the Bledsoe homers, ask yourself what the score would have been today if McNabb was our QB? I think we would have won by 2 TDs at least. Gotta give it up to him. He's a much better QB than Bledsoe. I wish we had a franchise QB again.

As long as they have NcFlabb and we have Bledsoe...I agree.

Bledsoe is a sitting statue with concrete in his shoes...no way we win with him.

I agree with your assessment, although I think we're a little more evenly matched than you think. I think if this game is at Texas stadium, the results might have been different.

I'll admit they were the better team in the second half.

I'll also admit that McNuts is a better QB than Bledsoe.

But overall, I don't think they are a better team. Our Defense was on the fields way too much.

They were the better team..........today. I still say there is much room for improvement for us on both sides of the ball.

Their coach / defensive coordinator / and QB are better.

They are without a doubt the better team right now. Say what you want about certain individuals screwing us over, but they are a part of a whole unit.

We got beat today. Simple as that. All is not lost, but some changes HAVE to be made if we want to do anything significant this year.

They were today, that's for sure. We still get another shot at them at home, but with the living statue at the helm the result will be the same.

I think we are pretty evenly matched.

When it comes to QB's though...

They were better.....today, and today only.

We tried hard to give them the win. They played the near perfect game, and we played a really poor game and they still BARELY escaped.

They're better than us in two important places.....the OL and QB.

I'm not too bothered by the outcome today.....I thought it'd be close and it was. I thought we'd get their absolute best shot and we did.

I remember 1992. We came into Philly undefeated and they drilled us 38-10 (or something like that).

I'm anxious to see how we respond.

Our secondary went to sleep just like at Jacksonville. Twice in 4 games worries the hell out of me. But don't give me this crap about them being the better team. They played better TODAY and won as they should have.
I give us the edge at every place escept O line, QB. D line is a push.
The team that PLAYED better won today, not the better TEAM.

Despite Drew 'got paid off by the mob' Bledsoe, this team was in it until 30 seconds left in the 4th. They were better today, but I refuse to admit they are better overall.

They have more gamers - they have leaders - Trotter & McNabb they have Superior coaching especially Jim Johnson and we have the Worst player in the NFL in Bledsoe and the most overrated in Roy Williams.
