Iggles vs 'Boys Thread

[boiga]

Is anyone watching this game? What's your take?

I think Philly has the firepower to win, but would prefer if the Cows get an easy win leading a let down up north.

I want Dallas to win just so they might be a bit more complacent next week.. tough win preferebly. Eagles should put up a decent fight though.

[Brando19]

Oops...just posted a thread like this one about the same time u did. Sorry.

[Brando19]

Good my thread got deleted so there's not 2. I am worried about the Cowboys next week. Jason Witten especially scares me. He's all over the field and I don't think our D can cover him while covering TO and containing Barber.

[Chevelle2]

I hate both teams. Who should I cheer for?

[Brando19]

A 0-0 tie resulting in a loss for both teams? 8-)

Eagles. It would be nice of them to expose the Cowboys in advance of our game next week. It would also give us a chance to go up 2 games on the odds on favorite in the NFC.

[boiga]

Kickoff out of bounds to start the game. That's nice.

When in doubt, hate the cowboys.

Edit: See? T.O. is just dang hard to cover. He ran straight past two Philly DB's for a long TD.

Edit 2: Felix Jones just ran a kickoff for a TD. The Cowboys look to run away with the game if this keeps up.

Edit 3: Romo under serious pressure makes a dumb throw straight to an Eagles DB. One pass interference call later and it's the Eagles ball on the Boys' 1. They might make a game of this after all.

Edit 4: This is a craaazy game. After the Eagles score off a Westbrook pass and catch up 13-14, Felix Jones fumbles the kickoff at the 6. A false start puts it on the 1, and Romo fumbles the ball twice to allow for another eagles TD.

Add in a bad PI call, two missed facemask penalties, and other weirdness and this games getting as out there as the Broncos Chargers were yesterday.

[MadtownPacker]

Damn, Romo just screwed up bigtime. Dont want these guys coming to Lambeau pissed off.

[RashanGary]

The Cowboys do have some explosive playmakers. This is an offensive league and our offense is near the top so I think we will be able to score quite a few. The problem is that they will be able to score quite a few as well and theis ST's looks pretty good.

It's going to be a battle. Philly is doing a good job and caught a nice break though. Both teams look pretty good on offense.

[Lurker64]

This has been a hilarious series for the Cowboys, back ot the Romo int.

Romo INT.
Highly questionable (i.e. blatantly wrong) Pass interference call.
Eagles TD
Cowboys fumble the kickoff to get bad field position.
False start to make it worse.
Romo fumbles the snap in the endzone.
Eagles TD.

[Tony Oday]

The Pack are going to roll the Cowgirls next week.

[boiga]

This has been a hilarious series for the Cowboys, back ot the Romo int. I was laughing. Talk about how anything that can go wrong will.

Romo's made a couple of bad decisions tonight. I hope he brings that back to Wisconsin with him.

[RashanGary]

I think we have a chance. I think it will come down to ST's and turn-overs because I can see both teams moving the ball at will on offense next week.

[boiga]

I have to hope that our D contains the Cowboys better than the Eagles are doing. They haven't found a way to stop them yet. Kampman, Pickett, and our LB's should do a better job of it.

[RashanGary]

Wow, what a fucking idiot.

[Brando19]

WTF? A rookie, dumb mistake by Desean Jackson....why let go of the ball b/f u cross the goalline....to show off? Stupid...interesting to see if it gets overturned.

[PackerTimer]

What an idiot. I think he tossed the ball before he was in the end zone.

[Rastak]

He makes Leon Lett look like a rhodes scholar.

[Spaulding]

We have a Darwin award winner - Detard Jackson.

[Guiness]

wtf just happened there?

going to read back a few posts and see if anyone else understood!

[PackerTimer]

That's another blown call by the refs. Even watching it live I thought he let go of the ball early. Tirico said it as well. They should have never signaled that as a TD.

[boiga]

Maybe he had Westbrooke on his fantasy team?

[Brando19]

Jackson caught a deep ball all alone and was trotting in the end zone and let the ball go on the 1 yard line thinking he was in...pretty much showing off...it got overturned and the Eagles got the ball on the 1 yard line where he dropped the ball. Stupid.

[hoosier]

Witten hurt his shoulder, taken to locker room for xrays

[FavreChild]

WTF - is Tony Romo the only guy on the field who can play defense??

:lol:

[boiga]

How many recovered fumbles have we had tonight? Crayton dropped the ball and it jumped back into his hands.... WTH is going on tonight?

[Guiness]

So the ball bounced out of bounds?

[boiga]

So the ball bounced out of bounds? Nope.

But nobody picked up the ball, so the Eagles maintained possession.

Crazy, huh?

[Guiness]

TO is having a heck of a game. He just had a long gain called back because of holding, but he made a stutter step that Brown really bit on. I sometimes forget he's got some really good moves to go with the rest of his game.

[hoosier]

So the ball bounced out of bounds? Nope.

But nobody picked up the ball, so the Eagles maintained possession.

Crazy, huh?

Ball was dead b/c officials wrongly signalled TD.

[Guiness]

So the ball bounced out of bounds? Nope.

Crazy, huh?

Nobody? lol
So why did the play end?
edit: tx Hoosier - an inadvertant whistle by any other name...

[Zool]

McNabb is killing me on these bombs to Lewis so far. Getting my hopes up then getting them crushed.

[hoosier]

In case anyone is cablely challenged: http://www.justin.tv/insightsports

[Brando19]

Is LJ Smith even playing? He's my starting TE in FF this week cuz Dallas Clark was injured.

[boiga]

In case anyone is cablely challenged: http://www.justin.tv/insightsports

This one's not bad either: http://www.justin.tv/johntran817

This is turning out to be an entertaining game. It really is a shootout between Mcnabb and TO. Both are playing stellar games tonight.

[hoosier]

It's a slugfest.

[gbgary]

hell. got busy on the computer and forgot this game was on. looks like mcnabb is back and dallas is the same old. we knew dallas was for real but this shows the eaglets are too. woah!

[boiga]

Witten hurt his shoulder, taken to locker room for xrays Witten is definitely back in. He just got Dallas those three points.

Makes this the second most scoring 1st half in league history.

[gbgary]

how do you let whitten get open like that? stupid. it's him and owens...that's it. you have to account for them at all times.

[Guiness]

Who's the colour guy? Is that that Kornholio guy?
Westbrooke's getting a rub down while the D is on the field - trainer's working his lower back. Colour guy says 'I don't know what to think about where those hands are...' Moron.

[Zool]

Its Tony Kornholeser. He's really starting to grate on everyones nerves. A change needs to be made mid-season.

[MadtownPacker]

If Westbrooks back is hurting is because of when he did a flip for a 1 yd TD after that idiot WR threw the ball down before getting in the endzone. Stupid SOB better not have ruined my FFB stud RB.

Romo's my starting Fantasy QB...he's earned me 12 pts so far in the game.

I don't play Fantasy Football, but do you lose points if you fumble twice in the same play?

I think you only lose points for lost fumbles, not fumbles that are recovered by your own team. So to lose points for two fumbles on one play, you would have to fumble it, have it recovered by the other team who then fumbles trying to return the fumble, you recover it, and you fumble it again and it's recovered by the other team.

I'm not sure that's ever happened.

[BallHawk]

I really like Jaws' work as a color guy.

Jaws is great, offers great insight in the game. He's the ESPN equivalent of Chris Colinsworth.

Of course, Jaws benefits from being next to an idiot like Kornhesier. It's like having an ugly friend to make you look more attractive.

[Scott Campbell]

Tackling Marion Barber in the open field looks like a sucky job.

[Guiness]

I really like Jaws' work as a color guy.

One of the idiot commentators (I assume Korn) just had another beaut. Cowboys OL false starts, so the Eagles D player smokes shoots towards him, and smokes him in the face as the OL is trying to get back into his set position. One of the announcers couldn't believe he got some sort of a roughness penalty, saying "it's football, you hit in this game". The other announcer sais Umm, not when the guy's got his hands down you don't...

Geez, I miss Denis Miller.

[boiga]

Tackling Marion Barber in the open field looks like a sucky job.

That's why I really hope Bigby will be back up to full strength by the weekend. Smashing those two together at full speed will be very loud.

Good series overall by the 'boys, with a couple of really good runs by Barber. He really lays a licken on the tacklers downfield.

[boiga]

Good series overall by the 'boys, with a couple of really good runs by Barber. He really lays a licken on the tacklers downfield. And the eagles are responding in turn.

This is nice. The Dallas defense is going to leave this game gassed and beat up. They have a short week and a road trip up north to look forward to. Keep up the long, physical drives eagles!

[Packers4Ever]

Damn, Romo just screwed up bigtime. Dont want these guys coming to Lambeau pissed off.

Well Mad, I'd rather not to see them running up the tunnel at Lambeau, and out onto the field all cocky big shots ! So if they win big tonight ----

Doggone the Eagles are handling them big time, didn't expect this ! :)

Good Show !

[Zool]

Greg Lewis to the 1. Shit shit shit.

[Scott Campbell]

Geez, I miss Denis Miller.



I'm one of the 3 people that liked Dennis Miller. The problem with those type of guys in the booth is that nobody can deal with them for an entire 3 hour game. Bring em in for 15 minutes per half. Leave viewers wanting more.

[Lurker64]

Really, if this is an intense punch-counterpunch game that goes down to the last possession, that's not really a bad thing for us. The more exhausting and emotional this game is for the Cowboys, the better for us.

[Scott Campbell]

Warren Sapp on dancing with the stars?


I'd pay big money to watch Clifton come out of nowhere and level him during a routine.

[The Gunshooter]

It is disturbing to see Romo just standing back there behind that wall of 7 foot tall blockers. I think I am going to have nightmare's from that.

[MadtownPacker]

[Zool]

Oooh alligaor arms a bit by Whitten there.

[Guiness]

Oooh alligaor arms a bit by Whitten there.

No, bad throw as per the replay. He was in stride, and Romo had to hit him...he stretched out, but couldn't quite get his fingertips on it.

So, me, you, and who else? I made the comment sarcastically because I knew others didn't like him.

Agree though, they should've had him run through the booth once/half. It was too much work listening to him. I did like reading 'Denis Miller, annotated' the next day though. He threw a lot of subtle stuff in there.

[gbgary]

bad throw? it was nearly perfect. eagles dodged a bullet there.

[channtheman]

what the hell mcnabb?

[MadScientist]

what the hell mcnabb?
Time to remove the pump fake hand-off from the playbook.

[The Gunshooter]

Nice rookie mistake McNabb.

[Scott Campbell]

So now Kornholio says that if you're a Superbowl team, you have to win this game.

No you don't. Did he not watch the Giants last year?

[Zool]

He could have stretched out quite a bit further IMO, but he brought his arms back in and looked for the hit. I cant fault the guy, thats a good way to get killed.

Whitten just redeemed himself.

[gbgary]

just let whitten run wild in the middle of the field. :roll:

[Guiness]

That looked like the exact same play to Whitten from about the same field position, didn't it?

TD Boys. good second effort by Barber.

[boiga]

Romo choked on that potentially game ending dump off to barbre.

Edit: What's with the Cows and face masks? Isn't that the easiest defensive penalty to avoid?

[gbgary]

horrible, STUPID, facemask penalty there. :lol:

[RashanGary]

Wow, it's been a great start to this season. I've seen 4 or 5 damn good football games (all Packer wins count as good games).

[Lurker64]

horrible, STUPID, facemask penalty there. :lol:

Classic undisciplined football by the Cowpokes.

[The Gunshooter]

McNabb sucks, he fumbles twice, passes up a open receiver for a guy that is triple covered and then takes a sack.

[Zool]

Wow, that was the 4th down play?

Fail

[BallHawk]

Nothing like lateraling TOWARDS the sideline.

[Guiness]

Seems like there were a few facemask penalties. Were they all against Dallas?

[boiga]

Game over.

Good game though.


Hopefully the Cowboys will be sore tomorrow. And the rest of the week too.

[Guiness]

See McNabb stomp on someone's hand while he was rolling out on that last sack? Ouch.

[mission]

these announcers are so dramatic ... my god.

mcnabb is a choke artist. after watching this game, im much more confident with rodgers as our qb than i am mcnobb... you kidding?

it aint even close. we CAN beat these cowboys.

How does McNobb make the same sloppy mistake twice handing the ball off for turnovers in the same quarter? I never seen anything like that before.

[Zool]

suzie...what's it like to ask such dumb questions?

it's cool.

Darn

McNabb looked pretty awful in that final series. Holding on to the ball for 8 seconds and taking a sack on the last third down was a rookie mistake.

Two best teams in the NFC. The Pack, Giants, Eagles, 'Boys, and Skins look like they're the cream of the crop imo.

Of course, those won't be the playoff teams by virtue of 4 teams playing in the same division.

I don't buy the Redskins being among the elite. I'd put New Orleans above them and Carolina and Tampa Bay (if Griese plays okay) at their level.

I wonder if TO was on the other sideline laughing and saying 'yup, he's done. Again'
