Eagles moving forward

Post by jackal »

Next will be a huge game for the Eagles they play the
Rams who have a pretty good offense.

It will tell us an awful lot about what kind of team
they really are ... imo the Eagles if they stay together
can win a ring with Wentz at some point but imo
are not at that level yet.

They will have Dallas to deal with next year
and Jones is pissed at Godell for the suspension
of Elliott; Jones is a wildcard ...who knows what
he will do ....

Really entertaining game. Both QB's making some incredible throws, it was like Madden more than a football game. It almost felt like everything was running at 1.5x speed.

Yeah next week should really cement the playoffs
in a lot of ways.

I am hoping Cleveland slaps Green Bay around.

If we beat the Panthers and the Rams beat
the eagles (which I believe will happen)
it will be a real uphill battle for Philly.

Now it looks like we will face a very
determined Rodgers in Green Bay. That
Should tough if he was is healthy.

Wentz may have torn his ACL.

Nick Foles isn’t terrible but that could really kill any
real chance for a post season run.

I like Wentz too, that sucks

It does suck. I wonder what it's like to lose your starting quarterback.

I'm in the same boat. I do genuinely feel for the fans of the Packers and Eagles, and I would prefer to beat those teams with their starting QBs....but we've lost Teddy Bridgewater and Sam Bradford in consecutive years, so when we win the Bowl I'm not going to feel like we got lucky. We prepared ofr the worst and got a little lucky, and thats what championship teams do.

My eyes must be bad. It almost looked like you wrote that you "feel for the fans of the Packers." But that can't be right.

I feel for Wentz and the Eagles (I don't mind them as a franchise), but his injury means that there's a great chance the 2nd seed will have home field in the playoffs since the Eagles have a bigger chance of losing in the divisional round now.

So let's lock up that 2 seed over the next couple weeks!

Honestly Green Bay is a crap team without Rodgers.

The Bears have a good run game and maybe their QB
for ten years. They have a pretty good front but
we have a much better team and are playing for our
best chance at a ring since 2009 maybe even 1998
