We somehow...someway need to get our running game going. I know Philly got run blitz happy, but if we do not get this going SOON it will come back and bite us.

Not going to start an issue over this, but Tucker was owned! I have not gone back to watch oline tape, but I would also think Big Al was owned as well. Trotter blew the middle up a lot.

Pettiti did a very nice job on Kearse...not sure about run blocking, but his pass protection looked solid...without reviewing it yet.

I know it's tough to go on the road and win...especially in the NFC east...we got away with one. Going into NY and Wash we better find a running game! Starting next Sunday would be nice.

I agree.

Great to steal the win.

Better still, it will give Parcells that much more lattitude to beat the team up during practice.

I've felt all season long that the O-line needs to be the focus next off season.

I didn't see anything last night that changed my mind.

I think it was more Philly's run defense than our ineptitude. They've limited backs to just over 1 yard per carry at home. That's fantastic run defense.

Amen...We need at a minimum another OT and Guard. I think Big Al is a smart player...I hope he can add about 10 lbs this off-season or else we need to upgrade him too.

Speaking of O-line play, how funny was it when the Philly center forgot to snap the ball and just picked it up to block with?
