We easily could have argued the Eagles were still playing with onside kicks and keeping McNumbnuts in the game but Wade has class.

even after all the cheapshots during the game?

class is one thing, sending a message is another

The Eagles had already had their heart torn out regardless of the final score.

Hell no I'm not. I did not want Romo or one of our other stars hurt in a meaningless situation.

Belicheck is an idiot to do that. I hate it.

"Run it up Herman, leave no doubt". I wanted to hang 40 plus on them. especially after the late hit on JJ...

We could probably have put 50 or more up if we wanted to show off.

Everyone who watched that game knows that the score isn't indicative of the ownership.



The MOST amazing thing about the game - the Eagles didn't really shoot themselves in the foot. They justs sucked. I think we will look back and see tonight as the Day the Eagles Died.

It's over.

He did the right thing. I had no doubt about what Wade was going to do.

No, "We can't turn our society into something not worth preserving in order to preserve it", Michael B. Mukasey 10/18/07. A man who talked the talk but could noy walk the walk.

They are going to be mediocre for years to come - that's plenty of salt.

I don't think you can judge a whole team based on the actions of one individual. One Eagle made an incredibly stupid decision and cheap-shotted Julius. That player alone should be held accountable, not the entire team.

I'm glad Phillips didn't run up the score. You don't need a large total on the scoreboard to know that you thoroughly dominated the other team. This game was over at halftime, and the playcalling was consistent with that.

There was no need to. An incompletion stops the clock. When the clock hits 0:00, game over.

...where no one including the Eagles, the Cowboys, the fans or the league could take any exception to the way the plays were called.

You won't find the terms "run up the score" being used to describe this win by anyone out in the football universe.

A salute to Wade Phillips for knowing how to show that you really belong and have been there before.
