Orton has no rivals. If we have someone other than Hoshon running the ball for more than 50 yards a game and 4 fumbles we would be so much better, I guess Kyle is going to have to line up at tailback as well at some point.
Brandon Marshall should beat up Moreno on the sidelines every game from here on out.
I'd be watching a Saints-Eagles rematch, though. I think the Eagles have come a long way from that whupping in week two, and the Giants-Eagles game was the most fun one this week. I still think the Saints would win it- but the Eagles are a great heel to the Saints good-guy routine.
The Eagles did win it, but they didn't shit all over the Giants doing it- NY will be pissed and motivated for the rest of the season just to get another crack at the Eagles, the Eagles are playoff-bound again, and the Cowboys are actually in danger of losing the next -three- games if someone keeps slipping the good drugs into the water at Redskins Park and defining "Decemberitis" as the Cowboy Disease for all time.
Saints will lose to Carolina in the season finale. For some reason weird reason we have their number, sort of like how the Skins play when they come to Dallas. You can throw records out the window when certain teams play, they beat us the for the first time in something like 3 years when they played us last month and that was because Fox when up 24-3 or some shit and tried played to not lose the game. HELLO!
Wait, what? The Eagles had their way with the Giants defense, they've scored 85 points against them this season. They were doing trick plays, reverses, flea flickers, every single thing worked. They had a 91 yard drive late in the game where they didn't even have a 3rd down. If that's not shitting on the Giants I don't know what is. The only reason the Giants stayed in that game was because Eli had one of his best passing games ever and the Eagles couldn't tackle shit.
Also if the Giants weren't pissed and motivated after the shalacking they got in Philly earlier in the year, what makes you think they'll do any better if they meet in the playoffs?
The cowboy fan's tears are sweetend by the Eagles being in 1st place this morning. The blame game is hilarious as usual.
Who's crying? We trolled Miz long enough this season, time to bunker down and get shit done by firing 90% of the coaching staff.
There wasn't any fucking defense in this game, even on special teams, from either team. 21 Eagles points from
1) A 60 yard fumble return
2) A 72 yard punt return
3) A 60 yard pass play
14 Giants points from
1) A 68 yard pass play
2) A 61 yard pass play
It was a 1-TD win in a 83-point game. Manning was shooting holes in the Eagles pass defense like a sniper- if his recievers had been a little better with catches, that'd have been a 500-yard game for the man, and the Eagles pass defense was shitty enough to allow it. The Giants had them pegged, they outgained the Eagles offense by over 100 yards as it is. DeSean Jackson made the difference, though- the Eagles were better. But seriously, compare it to the first match up. This was an actual game by comparison.
thats the thing about the eagles, during the last third of the season they find ways to win games from ALL SIDES of the ball. these guys will fucking bumble and stumble their way through sept, october, and half of november, then they flip a switch and their cheerleaders will start scoring TDs. shit is sick nasty
That's my point, Eli had the game of his life in the air and they still got their asses handed to them. There were two defining plays/drives in this game as far as I'm concerned. The first was Jackson's TD which came on the very first play after the Giants took a 31-30 lead. The second was the 91 yard drive that basically put the game away. If the Giants defense had any pride, any fire to win the game, neither of those embarrassing displays would have happened. The Eagles defense got torn up to, but let's face it, they made the plays where the Giants couldn't.
Maybe Cowboys and Eagles should switch jerseys in December.
You're neglecting the fact that the obvious hold/PI in the endzone on Celek would have led to ball placed at the 1yd line. The Eagles had to settle for a FG instead.
You can bet your ass that Quintin Mikell does not have another game of missed tackles and ticky tacky illegal contact penalties. He's one of the most underrated Safeties out there.
To be fair that was a horribly called game all around. The illegal contact calls on the dropped balls were a joke. The side judge who blew the play dead on the McNabb fumble-that-wasn't was killer for the Giants. Them not giving the Eagles the two seconds at the end of the half was dumb. Ticky-tacky unnecessary penalties on both teams. I don't think it was one-sided.
Da Bear--oh wait...
But seriously, I've been expecting this. Preseason I thought the 'Boys at best would get a wildcard spot. Midseason I had the Eagles winning the NFC East and 'Boys hanging onto a wildcard spot; however, I wouldn't be surprised if we slip out of the playoffs.
So uh...tears? Not so much. Frustrated that recent history is continuing to repeat itself? You bet.
No worries, Jerry will get a matching HD screen to captive you guys and to keep you guys buying tickets to a losing team. If he's done anything rights its that. He will throw out a few shinies every season and every Cowboy fan falls for it EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
All we had to hear about the last 2-3 years was this mega stadium you guys were building, then it was the scoreboard, then it was the controversy with the board being too big and too low etc. Now im not calling Texans stupid (or am I) but somehow he keeps convincing most Cowboy fans that "this year will be different!" and you guys eat that shit up, spend 300 bucks to watch the game in the lobby and on a TV in the stadium.
I mean its one thing to love you team and its another thing to be a moron and fall for the next best thing that a dynamite salesman keeps selling you. There is a thin line between love and stupidity, I wonder what he will do this off-season to throw most of you fans off this year. I personally think he will cause a stink under Wade and Garrett to keep people off the fact that since 1996 you guys are basically losers. Since that time the NFL has seen the Lions, Browns and the Chiefs have greater overall success than you.
I mean the last time you guys were relevant the Eagles had just drafted some little known rookie out of Clemson named Brian Dawkins. Irving Fryar, Heath Shuler and Tyrone Wheatley were still raping your division for goodness sake!
One could say that, I mean they are delusional right?
