Eagles 42, San Francisco 3
Hell we put our second stringers in there and they kept throwing the balls for touchdown.

My only really sad story - I benched LJ Smith this week and he had one of this best days ever

:cry:

13. I heartily apologize for Daunte
As it is, I do not believe it is ALL Daunte's fault...I believe he has the worst head coach in the current NFL...

NO FUCKING ADJUSTMENTS were made, when they saw how Cinci was defending them...No excuse for that. Tice is a fucking moran. :cry:

14. I have to agree, this is so un-Daunte like
He just always seemed like a QB that could somehow get the points on the board even when the offense was overwhelmed.

24. I think the commentators explained it perfectly...
He's seen NOTHING but cover 2 defense and NO safety his entire career. He's having to relearn coverages at this point. And without any proper coaching, he's not going to just pick it up. This may take a while. Brad Johnson will definitely help.

12. I have Corey Dillon
and I'm close to benching him for Westbrook. My other RB is T.Jones out of Chicago who is having a great rookie season.

16. Jones has been in the league for quite some time
I believe he was drafted by Arizona in the late 90s.

17. as i'd counsel any eagles fans: wait until the end of the season
eagles fans do this every year, and then have to eat crow when the super bowl comes around. oh well, i guess you need to have your fun while you can :evilgrin:

21. Why?
Edited on Mon Sep-19-05 03:11 PM by friesianrider
We're an awesome team and are damn proud of it!

Everyone said this to us last year "yeah, yeah those Eagles fans do this every year then have to eat crow." Well guess what? Nobody thought we'd have a snowball's chance in hell to make it to the Super Bow AND WE DID! We proved many people wrong just by getting there - and without TO. No one thought we could do that either and we did.

And, there are many people who are not only predicting we'll go back to the SB but that we have a good chance to win it....and I'm one of them! I don't see how anyone can act like we're so overrated and have no reason to think we're good. We went to the SB last year without TO's help in the playoffs and lost to the champions by only a few points. We're a good team and people need to stop hating on us.

We love our Eagles and ALWAYS have and always will, no matter how bad we play. But we're a good team and we're sure as shit proud of our guys.

25. Uh, yeah they did.
:shrug: So what's the excuse for losing yesterday?

Just sayin'..y'all got your asses beat down yesterday by a team that shouldn't be beating the SB champs...hardly cause to be talking smack this early in the season. Sloppy passing, sloppy playing does not a champion make.

26. uh, no they didn't
except for possibly last year (the writers always pick the pats to lose either in the playoffs, or in the SB. never happens). pats lost to Miami last year, and miami sucked ass. still won the SB IIRC. losing to shit teams in week 2, or even week 15, means absolutely nothing.

Now you say "except for possibly last year."

The fact is they played like shit yesterday and had absolutely no excuse or reason to be playing so poorly. Methinks they (and *cough* their fans) are getting a wee bit big-headed. The team and their fans who *really* need to keep their SB aspirations in check is the Patriots. JMHO. It is a new year and every team has an equal chance to make it this year...but to be talking smack when your team just got spanked by a shitty team is a tad :eyes:

31. That's cool.
I'm just sayin' a lot of people hate on Eagles fans cause we love our team and love our team equally whether they win or lose. I'd rather our fans be like that than the fans who start getting all into their city's team only when they do well. I don't know any Eagles fans who just jumped on board the last year or two...we've all been going to games since we were 2!

Maybe the Pats will win this year, maybe they wint. But if they keep being so cocky and not backing it up like yesterday, they won't even make it to the playoffs. There are MANY good teams that have a real chance to go to Detroit...the Pats are one of them of course but so are the Eagles. To act like the Pats have it in the bag and the Eagles' chances are a pipe dream is what I was taking issue with. If I remember correctly we were playing the Pats in the SB last year and y'all didn't run away with it as bad as some thought you would :evilgrin:

28. Did you have McNabb as your QB? I did
wow - he ruled!!

Of course I sat Smith on the bench :cry:

I wish I had gotten TO but at the time TO was being an asshole and figured he'd slack off this year. SO when he was still available in the 4th round I figured I would draft him and the person before me took him

:cry:

30. OMG McNabb had like 40 points!
I had him too!

I had TO from the beginning because I knew he would get his shit together :P He is a competitor and comes to win and thankfully now he and McNabb have their drama worked out so I'm going to hang on to him if I can!

32. Now is this where we say "Eagles Up"?
Or is that for Freepers only?

(okay, don't hate me, but I despise that "fly, eagles, fly song", particularly after last winter, when it was on TV all the time.
