in the midst of our angst and anger, let's also realize the eagles played a hell of a game and deserved to win it in the end. their team held up under the hype, ours did not - bottom line.

congrats eagles and their fans. even the bad ones. : )

What did they do? We handed them a 10 point lead and still were six yards away from tying with a POS at QB

I gotta agree. There was a lot of emotion and it was a hell of a game even though I hate the outcome. I tip my hat to Jim Johnson's defense. Wow.

No, this is the only Super Bowl they'll ever win.

We need to let them enjoy it.

We came out flat....they didn't....bottom line.

Only way they scored is by long bombs all game. If you have that there are nothing but DB mental errors.

Hell no!!!...They didnt deserve to win anything. Bledsoe and Mcbriar gift wrapped the W for them.

Only a gutless wonder would prop the Eagles for basically handing us a tie game.

Again, only a gutless wonder would throw an interception going the other way when you were giftwrapped a tie.

So I suppose you and Drew Bledsoe have quite a bit in common.

if my math skills are what i hope, they won.

if we won we'd be laughing at people making up all the excuses now. we lost, so we've got some people running for the mayor of excuseville.

Congrats to the Eagles, they played with more emotion in their house.

I look forward to the rematch in Dallas.

Agreed. They outcoached us, and executed better than us.

They were absolutely the better team on that field today.

dude - they won. we handed them the game, right? it was pretty sloppy overall and i'm a gutless wonder because i won't sit and be angry at drew? well, i am but i'm not gonna play with excuses and should have's.

we should have played a good game and we'd have had it easily. we didn't. it's not the eagles fault drew sucks so why hold it against them when they slap him arse around cause he won't throw it and then when he does, it's to the wrong person. called a gameplan - or the "idiots guide to beating bledsoe".

This game was over before the teams stepped onto the field. Bledsoe talks a good game, but can't make a decision in the pocket to save his life. He's not a big game QB and we have a bunch of big games.

Yep, I agree, even being undermanned a little bit, they sure had outplayed Cowboys, no doubt. Especially since the pressure was all on Eagles too.

As much as I hate to admit it. You are right.

That's right, I forgot long bombs don't count. We win, we win.

and this is a problem we need to fix, not yell cause the eagles read the book on how to beat him and drew played to part to a T. they did what they were supposed to do and walked of winners.

I'll prop them for knowing you need to have a good QB in order to be successful. That fat piece of $#*@ on our sideline still doesn't get it.
