Someone be a pal and tell me that St. Louis is a really, really bad team

[GimmeTheBall!]

If the Rams are really that bad, that's OK.

But if the Eagles are that good . . . . wow.

In Philly I saw an efficient and chains-moving team.
Either way I cannot wait for that Monday night game.

 

[Tusan_Homichi]

It's a bit of both. The Eagles are going to be a threat. The Rams are terrible. Watching that game, once the Eagles established that they could get to Bulger at will, that game was over. Bulger never would set his feet and they never threw down the field.

Eagles at home with an average St Louis team, Cowboys on the Road with a good (not great) Cleveland team, btw who only lost 1 home game last year.

Bring on philthy, I don't hate them like I do the deadskins, but I do hate them.

Stop the blitz and you beat Philly, Dallas needs to play for the jugular like it did at home in 2005 when they crushed philly 33-10 and like last year on Monday Night when they romped the Eagles at their place 38-17.

 

[reddyuta]

we have a great pass rush and even better o-line.I think we win big at home against the eagles.

 

[Deep_South]

McNabb is looking pretty good, just like he used to. That means our D needs to hit him a few times real hard next Monday and then he will get gun shy and fold.

 

[Everlastingxxx]

Hey Eagles look good even tho the Rams are horrific. McNabb looks sharp and the D-fense is making plays. Will be a good test for the Cowboys. Big advantage is it’s the home opener on prime time tv. I see the Dallas pass rushers coming alive in this one. I also think we need to pull out some Barber/Jones combo plays.

 

[Clove]

Get pressure, and don't allow them to get that screen pass going.

 

[Nexx]

the eagles are legit. mcscrubb looks healthy as does westbrook. jim johnson is a helluva d coordinator. its gonna come down to the battle of the trenches. who can get pressure on the other teams QB will the major factor on who wins or loses next monday.

 

[calico]

Rams are bad but Philly is solid. They will give us some problems but I expect us to win next week.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

RAMS looked horrible

 

[windward]

Philly is a good playoff caliber team and we will need an excellent effort Monday to win.

That being said, the Rams may be the worst team in the league.

 

[lpc25]

Rams Suck!!!

 

[Boysboy]

The Eagles just seem to not only have our number, but own our psyches as well.

Nonetheless, I HATE that team, even more so than the Skins and Giants. That xmas day massacre in '06 at home I will never forget. After losing 2 straight games to them at home, would love to stick it to them next Mon.

 

[jbsg02]

The Eagles are better this year, but those numbers were a bit inflated because the Rams aren't good

 

[LowTech]

The Rams really do suck and sorry...............it'll be a cold day in hell before I ever say anything good about the Egirls.

They sure owned our psyches on Sunday Night last year.

Agreed, it was really hard to tell if the Rams were THAT bad or if it was a result of solid play by the Eagles.

I'm hoping they're just that bad. Stephen Jackson looked slow and their Oline gave Bulger virtually no time to scan the field.

What worries me is their kick/punt return units. Both Demps and Jackson have looked good.

But...that's why they play the games

 

[PhillyCowboysFan]

The Rams are horrible and the Eagles are very good. Neverless I expect a win!

 

[playmakers]

Im from Philly and watched the game. The first play of the game Mcnabb through one up to Jackson and the ball apparently went right through Ty Hill's body and he caught it. A definte must see. Im being sarcastic but watch the play it was a microcosm of what was about to come.

1. The Eagles defense went right up on the line and rushed 7 guys all day. Bulger was a scared cat out there and was throwing the ball away as soon as he got to his drop. The Eagles are going to blitz us 75 percent of the plays next week.

2. The game was really close at the end of the 2nd quarter 14-0. I know that sounds lopsided but the game really slowed down and the Eagles O was stalling and the Rams were getting a few first downs. That all ended at the end of the half. The Rams called 2 TO's when the Eagles were on the 6 yard line and it was 3rd and like 10. Hank Basket runs right down the field and no one covers him and he scores from 94 yards.

3. The Rams were in 3rd in 8 plus and gave up I think 5 plays of over 40 yards. The one play made me a bit upset. They were getting the momenteum and it was something like 3rd and 17, Mcnabb goes back to pass and Greg Lewis runs right down the middle of the field for like 60. No one even touched him.

Take away the big plays and the Rams D has some decent players. Long played well. They shut down Westbrook and the short and medium range passing game but always let someone run free long. The Eagles ran up the score too. Once the Rams gave up that 94 yarder right befoire the half they were done. In the second half up 30 points they pass the ball at least 70 percent of the time.

In closing, we stop Westbrook and dont give these guys the big pass we should win. They will be coming for PacMan Im certain of it. They attacked Tye Hill today because they thought he was prone to double moves.
