4th Quarter Comeback Victory


Its too bad that Donovan McNabb just isn't good enough to lead the Eagles back from a multi-score deficit with 10 minutes left to play to win the game.  Otherwise, we'd have had a chance yesterday against the Redskins.

 

Its really just too bad that we have a Quarterback who is such a choke artist who can't pull it out and isn't a leader and can't inspire anyone to victory and isn't "tough-n-gritty" so that we can never win a close game.

Eli Manning poetry from Isabella B., 8 3/4 years old


Cry little baby Eli Manning/

on your way to losing today/

and cry, cry, cry, and cry/

for you have no hope anyway.

 

It seems like you want to lose/

and this way you always can/

just throw the ball to the other team/

and then you can cry again.

 

Or get a sack to end the game/

thats the perfect way/

to make sure your Giants lose/

once again today.

Antonio Romo - Crybabyus Maximus


From my lovely, talented, and observant daughter.  All spelling and grammar as in the original.

 

Description of Antonio Romo Crybabyus Maximus

The world's most hated player.  Throws a lot of inerseptions, does a lot of penalties and fumbles.  Crys a loooootttttt.  Is a sore loser.  Never wins.  Nicknamed "Crybaby".  No respect from anybody.  Is seen often on TV wiping tears away from eyes.  Number 9.  Plays on Cowboys (also known as the Cowgirls, Crygirls, or Crybabys.)  Garanteed to allways lose!  Worst player in the world.

 

By,

 

Isabella B----

Eight years old, 88 years wise.

The 2009 Roster, Post Draft

Ignoring the likely camp fodder ... 62 players the Eagles have drafted, traded for, or spent significant amounts on in Free Agency ...

QB (3) - McNabb, Kolb, Feeley

RB (3) - Westbrook, Booker, McCoy

FB (2) - Eckel, Weaver

TE (3) - Celek, Schobel, Ingram

WR (7) - Jackson, Curtis, Brown, Avant, Baskett, Maclin, Gibson

T (5) - Andrews, Peters, Dunlap, Justice, Tupou

G (6) - Herremanns, Andrews, Jean-Gilles, McGlynn, Gibson, Fanaika

C (2) - Jackson, Cole

ST (3) - Akers, Rocca, Dorenbos

DT (4) - Patterson, Bunkley, Laws, Klecko

DE (6) - Cole, Thomas, Howard, Smith, Clemmons, Abiamiri

LB (8) - Gocong, Bradley, Jordan, Gaithers, Mays, Daniels, White, Fouko

S (4) - Mikell, Demps, Jones, Baker

CB (6) - Brown, Samuel, Hanson, Hobbs, Ikegwuono, Harris

 

Nine decent players aren't making this team.  Competition for roster is obviously at WR (-1 or 2), CB (-1 or 2), G/T (-3 or 4), LB (-1 or 2), and maybe DE and FB (0 or -1).  Everybody else is pretty much set unless they slip up and let a camp body past them on the depth chart.

More Dawkins Rumor Mongering

DAWKINS FINALLY A DONE DEAL IN DENVER

Posted by Mike Florio: Friday, February 27, 2009 9:29 PM After some conflicting reports on whether veteran safety Brian Dawkins had done a deal with the Denver Broncos, we're told that Dawkins finally has signed a contract to join the Broncos.

Dawkins was drafted by the Eagles way back in 1996, and he spent 13 seasons in Philly.

Seeing him in anything other than an Eagles uniform will be as bizarre as seeing Brett Favre as a Jet or Mike Vick as a member of the Mean Machine. http://blogs.nbcsports.com/home/

O-Line

How does this look?

 

Richt Tackle - Stacy Andrews; backup - draft pick?

Right Guard - Shawn Andrews; back-up Mike McGlynn

Center - Jamaal Jackson; backup - Nick Cole

Left Guard - Todd Herremanns or Max Jean-Gilles

Left Tackle - Todd Herremanns or King Dunlap

 

Can't complain with a solid group like that to go for next year.

 

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

If Dawkins Goes

Just remember that we root for the Philadelphia EAGLES, not the Philadelphia DAWKINS'.

 

If he feels that a few more dollars in his pocket are worth more than ending his career in the city it began, on the team that drafted him, and with the fans who paid him all that money to date, shame on him.

 

The Eagles made him an offer.  If he really values everything this city has meant for him and done for him since 1996, let him sign it.  If he thinks that the $32 million the Eagles have paid him to date is not enough that another $3 million won't do it ... well, to paraphrase Supertramp ... good bye greedball, its been nice, hope you find your paradise, you stinking greedy hypocrite.

Running Game?  Balance?

Who cares?

 

Neither Arizona or Pittsburgh needed it last night.

 

Pittsburgh - 22 rushes, 58 yards vs. 35 called passes

Arizona - 12 rushes, 33 yards vs. 45 called passes.

 

Did anyone miss 3 yards and a cloud of dust last night?  I didn't.

 

Where were all those power running teams last night?  The Giants, Panthers, Falcons, Ravens, Titans, Vikings?  Oh yeah, except for the Ravens and Titans who played each other, they all went one and done vs. wide-open passing offenses in the playoffs.

 

Points come from the passing game, and if your passing game is good enough, you can come back from almost any deficit to take the lead.  Pittsburgh, Arizona showed that last night.  We showed it playing Arizona two weeks ago.

 

How many more Super Bowls need to be won in this manner to finally put the offense of the 1970's out to pasture as the only model for winning?
