Those Lucky Eagles
Its a good thing for the Eagles that the liberal sports media forced Donovan McNabb on them. The closed minded liberal sports press is at it again this morning. I'm reading in the paper about how McNabb ran and passed for more than 300 yards and he led his team on a spectacular touch down drive in the fourth quarter. If he were white, there's no telling to what lengths they would go to cloud the story. Damn liberal media.

1. It wasn't luck
The Packers deserved to lose. What wimps. Fourth down and one with two and a half minutes left. They punted and took the game away from the part of their team that excels (offense) and gave the Eagles a chance to catch up.

But boy was he open. My God, how could the Packers rely on THAT defense?

9. Because their defensive coordinator is an idiot
4th and 26, game on the line, passing situation, what do you call? A 4-3 Cover 2 of course! :eyes:

4. While waiting for my housekeeper to come back from Denny's
let me point out that it was the WHITE quarterback who tossed the ball up in the air toward TWO Eagle defensive backs in overtime.

5. They're Lucky Favre Screwed Up Royally
What the hell was he thinking throwing that blooper? Possibly one of the worst passes I've ever seen...

6. Sherman's fault...He should have gone for it on 4th and 1.
He should be fired for that.

11. And the defensive coordinator
They didn't spy McNabb (STUPID STUPID), they called a Cover 2 on 4th and very long in an obvious passing situation...the tragedy is that the Green Bay secondary was actually doing really well.

And why not keep running Green all game? He was slicing through the Eagles defense repeatedly, as well as Davenport. Idiotic play-calling led to the loss, which was only punctuated by Favre's inability to just TAKE A FUCKING SACK.
