PHI 7 , NO 6 – 2nd Half

Posted: January 4th, 2014 | Author: | Filed under: Philadelphia Eagles | 762 Comments »

Sloppy, but intense 1st half. Drew Brees threw 2 picks. The Eagles run game was stagnant. Both defenses are playing well.

The Eagles get the ball to start the 2nd half. Key thing is for Chip and Pat to figure out the run game. Maybe they’ll go more from shotgun.

Bill Davis needs to pat his guys on the back and say “More, please.”

    NO defense cant hold up, just a matter of time till shady goes off.

    Yes sir…Shady “Moses” McCoy is about to part the motherfuckin Gold n Black Sea!!!

    Saints outrushing Eagles 94-35

  17. 17 Isaac said at 9:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    let ’em keep rushing.

  18. 18 dislikedisqus said at 9:47 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    If they’re stopping the run, you’d think the outs and deep passes would be available, yet we seem to be throwing only over the middle. The screens have all been disasters. Not sure why we aren’t seeing deeper passes.

  19. 19 RobNE said at 9:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    yes. It seems like every play they are in the backfield, yet wouldn’t that open up something else.

  20. 20 cliff henny said at 9:48 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    eagles are like a great racehorse, we’re even, we’re leaving!

  21. 21 OregonDucker said at 9:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Chip will scheme better plays for Shady. Bet on it!!!

  22. 22 cliff henny said at 9:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    NO d wont hold up. guys getting hurt. no rush. it’s all there for taking.

  23. 23 ICDogg said at 9:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Trent Cole has eight sacks in his last seven games and nine in his last nine.

  24. 24 Isaac said at 9:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    0 in last 1.5

  25. 25 RobNE said at 9:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    once the 2 minute warning stopped the clock and allowed substitutions etc., why can’t Kelly learn to go slower and leave less time for the other team?

  26. 26 TheRogerPodacter said at 9:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I want to see more desean in the second half.

  27. 27 Isaac said at 9:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i’m thinking saints have set up defense to eliminate him. he’s awol

  28. 28 RobNE said at 9:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I feel like we are down about 0-24. That was exhausting.

  29. 29 ICDogg said at 9:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I'm expecting a final score of 45-6— FakeWIPCaller (@FakeWIPCaller) January 5, 2014

  30. 30 OregonDucker said at 9:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    45-9 gotta give them 3

  31. 31 Arby1 said at 9:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We played so-so and we’re leading. TD has to let these guys know they can win this game, if they had any doubts.

  32. 32 RobNE said at 9:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    How do they know the weather has been no problem? Brees has 2 interceptions.

  33. 33 bdbd20 said at 9:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    It does seem like NO is staying deep. Nick has to be smart and accurate.

  34. 34 BlindChow said at 9:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    No runs, of course.

  35. 35 TheRogerPodacter said at 9:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    thats not intentional grounding for dallas….

  36. 36 GEAGLE said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Or the saints

  37. 37 Corry said at 9:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Oh fuck off refs.

  38. 38 GEAGLE said at 9:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Come on

  39. 39 Isaac said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    great halftime adjustments

  40. 40 Bob Brewer said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    What a great opening series.

  41. 41 DamonL86 said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    That is plain awful

  42. 42 Corry said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    How much money do the refs have down on this game?

  43. 43 TheRogerPodacter said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    ugh. c’mon Foles. gotta throw the ball!!!!!

  44. 44 BobSmith77 said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Again McCoy wide open.

  45. 45 Iskar36 said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Bad bad start for the Eagles O

  46. 46 John Galt said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Run the ball chip

  47. 47 phillychuck said at 9:57 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    This–don’t be passing the ball on 2nd and 4 in your own territory. Starting ot have a bad feeling about this.

  48. 48 GEAGLE said at 9:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Come on lane

  49. 49 TheRogerPodacter said at 9:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    lane johnson got beat bad

  50. 50 GEAGLE said at 9:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    UnAcceptably bad

  51. 51 bdbd20 said at 9:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Well, that was awful.

  52. 52 SteveH said at 9:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    At the game right now, absurdly slow concessions is my only comment so far.

  53. 53 TheRogerPodacter said at 9:57 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    youre at the stadium? bring us luck from the Linc!

  54. 54 GEAGLE said at 9:58 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Put the phone down and make some fuckin Noise!!! Joking

  55. 55 GEAGLE said at 9:57 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    DEFENSE! DEFENSE! DEFENSE…time to make a play boys

  56. 56 bdbd20 said at 9:58 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Not sure what happened to our screen game. It used to be so effective.

  57. 57 Crus57 said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Other D coordinators noticed.

  58. 58 BobSmith77 said at 9:58 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Davis isn’t blitzing as much as I thought he would but the Saints are doing a very good job of protecting when he does.

  59. 59 GEAGLE said at 9:58 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Boykin needs to make a play

  60. 60 DamonL86 said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Sigh

  61. 61 Iskar36 said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Run defense has been awful so far.

  62. 62 TheRogerPodacter said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    bah! LETS GO DEFENSE!

  63. 63 GEAGLE said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    DEFENSE!!!!!

  64. 64 BobSmith77 said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    3rd week in a row where the DL isn’t doing anything.

  65. 65 BlindChow said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I wish Kelly would run the football.

  66. 66 Corry said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Holy shit, we might get a holding call in our favor.

  67. 67 TheRogerPodacter said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    ’bout time

  68. 68 bdbd20 said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Wow, a holding call. Haven’t seen that in a while.

  69. 69 RobNE said at 9:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Saints came out running, we came out passing . Sigh

  70. 70 truthchief said at 10:00 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Time to make them pay!

  71. 71 RobNE said at 10:00 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Foles is taking too many sacks today.

  72. 72 GEAGLE said at 10:00 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Let’s go….

  73. 73 DamonL86 said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Great job D

  74. 74 GEAGLE said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Noooooooooo

  75. 75 truthchief said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Bummer

  76. 76 Isaac said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    love the adjustments

  77. 77 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    goddammit

  78. 78 ICDogg said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    F’ing F.

  79. 79 Bob Brewer said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Was only a matter of time. Foles must play better.

  80. 80 BobSmith77 said at 10:02 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The OL too. They haven’t done much in the run game and Saints are generating a bunch of pressure on the ends.

  81. 81 Crus57 said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Meco was guarding nobody

  82. 82 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:02 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    same with Cary, but i think they were in zone and no one was in his zone

  83. 83 Crus57 said at 10:02 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Possible, but there was nobody for Meco to pass his guy off to since Graham (I think?) had already crossed the middle.

  84. 84 Corry said at 10:03 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Kendricks might not have gotten deep enough in his zone. Awfully big hole there for the receiver to settle in to.

  85. 85 ICDogg said at 10:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Boykin blitzed and Brees found the vacated spot

  86. 86 shah8 said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    one of the CBs got confused…

  87. 87 phillychuck said at 10:01 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Big time for the offense to make a response. Can’t hold Brees forever.

  88. 88 bdbd20 said at 10:02 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    One more 3-and-out and the boo birds might start to come out.

  89. 89 BlindChow said at 10:02 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    And they should. Especially if it’s all pass plays.

  90. 90 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:02 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    ok offense. GET SOME POINTS

  91. 91 Iskar36 said at 10:02 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Defense has been thriving on mistakes by the Saints (two badly thrown balls by Brees). They need to step it up and slow this offense down.

  92. 92 jshort said at 10:03 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    working with a short field

  93. 93 Iskar36 said at 10:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    My point has been about the game as a whole. They have racked up yards on us and we forced two turnovers after long drives that has kept the game close but we need to force a few short drives for the Saints and slow their offense down.

  94. 94 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    yep. we give the saints a short field, its less likely that our defense will force a turnover

  95. 95 phillychuck said at 10:03 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Need to figure out how to beat 3 rushing, 8 in coverage…also need to run the ball successfully.

  96. 96 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:03 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    sounds like we need some delayed handoffs or some 2 RB sets, maybe

  97. 97 bdbd20 said at 10:03 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    It’s certainly possible the cold has affected us more than them.

    Young team. Most of these guys may have never played in this type of cold.

  98. 98 DamonL86 said at 10:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    O better respond here

  99. 99 Steag209 said at 10:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Alright O. There’s a reason you were #2 in the league. Now show me why that was.

  100. 100 OregonDucker said at 10:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Are they playing press man and stacking the box on us? Feels like Dallas.

  101. 101 phillychuck said at 10:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    They’re playing lots of coverage with a stacked box on first down. Not really trying to generate much of a pass rush. Blitzed once or twice only, I think.

  102. 102 Isaac said at 10:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    eagles playing a real team tonight, not raiders bears skins giants

  103. 103 Crus57 said at 10:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    or Lions, Cardinals.

  104. 104 Isaac said at 10:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    down vote because its the truth that’ll change things

  105. 105 BobSmith77 said at 10:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    3rd time in 4 weeks where the Eagles are losing the battles in the trenches on both sides of the ball.

  106. 106 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i’m so happy to see brad smith just head upfield and get the ball past the 20 every time. not like last year when we were lucky to start from the 20…

  107. 107 RobNE said at 10:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    commercial: why is the beer kept in the basement? no fridge in the kitchen?

  108. 108 Allen3000 said at 10:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Why can’t we ever return a kick past the 25 yard line?

  109. 109 bdbd20 said at 10:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Boykin too valuable right now. Gotta live with Smith until the draft.

  110. 110 Crus57 said at 10:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Damaris Johnson has been a real disappointment, not a good WR and not a good returner.

  111. 111 BobSmith77 said at 10:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Is Reno Mahe available?

  112. 112 Eagles_Fan_in_San_Fran said at 10:07 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Good one!

  113. 113 kajomo said at 10:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Everyone needs to gi to their basement, listen to Sarah McGlocklin, and eat a Quino right now

  114. 114 DamonL86 said at 10:07 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Do not 3 and out

  115. 115 BlindChow said at 10:07 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    2 runs in a row!

  116. 116 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:07 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    big 3rd down play here

  117. 117 DamonL86 said at 10:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    hey andy reid showed up

  118. 118 Eagles_Fan_in_San_Fran said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    He’s got time on his hands now!

  119. 119 BobSmith77 said at 10:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Eagles are running an awful lot to the left side tonight.

  120. 120 bdbd20 said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Two All-Pros. Best left side in the NFL.

  121. 121 BobSmith77 said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Haven’t shown it tonight. Stretch play has generated little to nothing and McCoy hasn’t had a clean corner yet around Peters.

  122. 122 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    timeout, eh? well you better get the first down, now.

  123. 123 RobNE said at 10:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    great let’s go 3 and out and burn a timeout too

  124. 124 DamonL86 said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Oh my god are you kidding me

  125. 125 Corry said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I can’t believe it.

  126. 126 BobSmith77 said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    You bozo.

  127. 127 Iskar36 said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Are you serious Cooper!

  128. 128 shah8 said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The worst drop in the world.

  129. 129 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    no more coop chants for you. boos only.

  130. 130 BlindChow said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Unbelievable.

  131. 131 DamonL86 said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    self inflicted wounds

  132. 132 RobNE said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Cooper just cost us about 40 yards. We are doing a lot of things to lose this game.

  133. 133 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    thats what it comes down to, folks. execution.

  134. 134 BlindChow said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Just giving the game away.

  135. 135 John Galt said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    With the 22nd pick in the 2014 NFL draft the Philadelphia eagles select…

  136. 136 SeanofDead said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I don’t get it.

  137. 137 OregonDucker said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Execute the play not your team!

  138. 138 RobNE said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    you come from a glass is half full kind of place. We….don’t.

  139. 139 phillychuck said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Game changing drop by Cooper there.

  140. 140 JJ_Cake said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I can’t believe we have two critical passes dropped. Ugh!

  141. 141 DamonL86 said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Gonna be talking about that play for the next 8 months

  142. 142 Baloophi said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Cooper with a Maclin impression…

  143. 143 Allen3000 said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The safety slipped and there was nothing but green for a mile. Ugh. Would love to have that one back.

  144. 144 bdbd20 said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Maybe we’re just not ready for this.

    Not over yet, but another TD makes this pretty tough.

  145. 145 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:11 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    yea, we really need the defense to step it up on this drive. need a turnover or a quick punt.

  146. 146 McNabbulousness said at 10:10 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    that was a td if he catches that

  147. 147 BlindChow said at 10:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Probably not.

  148. 148 ICDogg said at 10:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yeah, they had guys back

  149. 149 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    1 LB in the middle of the field and one CB with a WR to block him

  150. 150 BlindChow said at 10:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    They had a safety, and a CB near Desean.

  151. 151 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    ahh ok. i didn’t see the S deep to that side.

  152. 152 DamonL86 said at 10:11 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    we are not winning the day

  153. 153 jshort said at 10:11 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    not yet

  154. 154 McNabbulousness said at 10:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    yeah this feels a lot like that playoff game with the packers, the one we didn’t win

  155. 155 BobSmith77 said at 10:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Finally. Logan held the point of attack. Saints OL has been pushing the Eagles DL off the ball on almost every run play so far.

  156. 156 GEAGLE said at 10:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    DEFENSE!! DEFENSE!! Let’s go boys

  157. 157 BobSmith77 said at 10:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Saints’ execution has really been lacking here.

  158. 158 GEAGLE said at 10:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Defense,,,let’s do THIS!!!

  159. 159 OregonDucker said at 10:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Now

  160. 160 BobSmith77 said at 10:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Need a play out one of the DL here.

  161. 161 Corry said at 10:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Trent Cole got tackled.

  162. 162 GEAGLE said at 10:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Shoulda been a personel foul..nvmd

  163. 163 McNabbulousness said at 10:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    they finally called a hold!!!

  164. 164 Baloophi said at 10:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    That hold probably saved a strip sack.

  165. 165 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    shit, sconces is down.

  166. 166 McNabbulousness said at 10:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    not for long

  167. 167 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    oh phew. he’s walking off

  168. 168 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    anybody see what happened to him?

  169. 169 Corry said at 10:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Rub some dirt in it sconces.

  170. 170 McNabbulousness said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i imagine that wouldn’t taste so good

  171. 171 GEAGLE said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Let’s go CARY!! Mr. December/January/

  172. 172 Insomniac said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    O boy Roc is coming in.

  173. 173 ACViking said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    15 cameras no replay on the injury

  174. 174 DamonL86 said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Asking too much from the D

  175. 175 RobNE said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    ye sand no. Offense needs to do more. But you get teams in 3rd and 10, you need to convert.

  176. 176 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    of course, he went after carmichael. though i’m not sure sconces would have fared any better there

  177. 177 GEAGLE said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Come on roc???you still owe us from earlier

  178. 178 BobSmith77 said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Against Rock Carmichael. Ugh. Again no f@cking pressure to speak of and Cox got pancaked.

  179. 179 Insomniac said at 10:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Damn it Roc

  180. 180 Corry said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The D is overmatched tonight.

  181. 181 Baloophi said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    And the O…

  182. 182 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    jesus christ!

  183. 183 McNabbulousness said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    getting no pressure

  184. 184 BlindChow said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Of course wide open receiver.

  185. 185 DamonL86 said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    No pressure and its slipping away

  186. 186 GEAGLE said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Fuckin hit Briggs NOW

  187. 187 ToastJenkins said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    now we are in trouble…

  188. 188 BlindChow said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Starting to feel like the game is over.

  189. 189 DamonL86 said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Ingram is running over us

  190. 190 Corry said at 10:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Holy shit, tackle him!

  191. 191 Iskar36 said at 10:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Run defense absolutely did not show up today.

  192. 192 Steag209 said at 10:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Our lines are getting owned. I don’t think it’s gonna happen tonight

  193. 193 McNabbulousness said at 10:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    great effort chung, way to match the intensity

  194. 194 GEAGLE said at 10:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Turn OVER TIME!!!! Let’s go boys.lopportunity is still knicking

  195. 195 Baloophi said at 10:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Maybe Sean Payton was pointing out his own player holding?

  196. 196 Corry said at 10:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    THis feels like 2006 again. They’re just running us over.

  197. 197 McNabbulousness said at 10:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    at least our offense showed up in 06

  198. 198 BobSmith77 said at 10:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Every play the Saints run tonight outside of the tackles is gaining yardage and the Eagles have done nothing when they have tried it.

  199. 199 bdbd20 said at 10:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    This one’s over. They’ve figured us out.

    A great season, though. Let’s keep building on this.

  200. 200 GEAGLE said at 10:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yous are nuts, WE FIGHT!!!

  201. 201 bdbd20 said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I agree, but they are the better team. No shame in admitting that.

    We forced them to run the ball, and they did it well.

  202. 202 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    going for the ball instead of tackling. not sure i disagree…..

  203. 203 Insomniac said at 10:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Try to punch the ball out when you’re gang tackling..come on.

  204. 204 GEAGLE said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    They are,.that’s why they are giving up extra yards

  205. 205 RobNE said at 10:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    This feels like an Andy Reid loss. We go into the game saying, wow this team is really weak against the run. And it just doesn’t matter.

  206. 206 Isaac said at 10:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    eagles have run, what 6 plays?

  207. 207 Allen3000 said at 10:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Self destructing

  208. 208 BlindChow said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Over.

  209. 209 BobSmith77 said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Ball game.

  210. 210 DamonL86 said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Meltdown incoming

  211. 211 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    well shit.

  212. 212 ToastJenkins said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    ok offense…now or never

  213. 213 Iskar36 said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Have we made a single stop on a run play all game?

  214. 214 Isaac said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    out classed out played out coached out everything

  215. 215 Bob Brewer said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Hey at least the Flyers just took the lead.

  216. 216 John Galt said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Bad time to play our worst game of the year

  217. 217 McNabbulousness said at 10:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    thats a very objective comment, mr. galt

  218. 218 Crus57 said at 10:24 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    You forgot Dallas 1 already? Good plan.

  219. 219 DamonL86 said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I cannot believe we are making Ingram look like a real running back

  220. 220 Baloophi said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Wow… Cooper’s drop was even worse than I thought.

  221. 221 shah8 said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Okay, now we’re going to see what Foles is made of. See if he can emulate Andrew Luck’s performance.

  222. 222 BlindChow said at 10:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The Colts were only down so much because of Luck’s interception frenzy.

  223. 223 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    can someone explain the pistol formation to me? that looked like a regular shotgun snap…

  224. 224 Corry said at 10:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    It’s not as far back and the running back lines up behind the QB rather than flanking him.

  225. 225 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    ahh thanks. i thought the pistol involved 2 RBs for some reason.

  226. 226 Crus57 said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    So, like a shotgun but shorter and more accurate?

  227. 227 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    hah my thoughts exactly.

  228. 228 McNabbulousness said at 10:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    so foles, you want to be a franchise qb, well lets see it

  229. 229 RobNE said at 10:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    hey it’s 3:54 left in the 3rd. Chill out everyone. There will be months to discuss the loss if/when we lose.

  230. 230 GEAGLE said at 10:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    People are nuts,,we ain’t rolling over…and all it takes is one play to turn momentum at home…Lets FUCKING GO!!

  231. 231 OregonDucker said at 10:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

  232. 232 McNabbulousness said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    what he said, don’t go down without swinging

  233. 233 GEAGLE said at 10:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Foles, Shady, Desean….who is going to step up

  234. 234 Mitchell said at 10:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    How the fuck do we only have 7 points!?!?

  235. 235 Crus57 said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Drops and sacks.

  236. 236 Baloophi said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Don’t forget a missed FG!

  237. 237 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i blame one of the sacks for most of the reason that FG missed haha

  238. 238 BobSmith77 said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Give Payton a lot of credit. He saw this OL was blowing the Eagles off the point of attack almost every play and just stuffed it down their throat that drive.

  239. 239 Corry said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    No, because I hate that guy.

  240. 240 OregonDucker said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Never surrender, never give up. FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

  241. 241 GEAGLE said at 10:28 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    One play changes flow

  242. 242 truthchief said at 10:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Ran into a better team. We are good at giving southern teams that never win in the cold a nice victory. time to step up team!

  243. 243 Tom said at 10:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Jesus everyone. If we aren’t playing with a lead then we already lost?

  244. 244 BlindChow said at 10:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    If we look clueless on offense and defense we’ve lost.

  245. 245 DamonL86 said at 10:24 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    3 and outing so far in the second half makes it hard to score points

  246. 246 DamonL86 said at 10:24 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    3 and outing so far in the second half makes it hard to score points

  247. 247 BobSmith77 said at 10:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Really disappointed at how this DL has finished the season. This is 3rd game out of the last 4 where they have been beaten/embarrassed.

  248. 248 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    hey there we go, got out past the 25

  249. 249 truthchief said at 10:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Why do we always lose to cheaters?

  250. 250 bdbd20 said at 10:24 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Enjoy watching them at Seattle next week.

  251. 251 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:24 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    LETS GO BIRDS! WE’RE STILL IN THIS GAME!

  252. 252 Patrick said at 10:24 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We’re done. Some of the team lacks talent, some of the team lacks experience and pretty much the whole team lacks intensity. We didn’t show up today, can’t do that in the playoffs. Just show me some intensity and some good football. Make me believe we can come back. Lets be in this until our last drive.

    It was a good year, i was expecting 6 wins and struggles with only a few bright spots. Instead we got 10 wins and generally decent play with some struggles. Not bad for a young team with a new HC who had to retool the defense and make up for some bad draft classes.

  253. 253 McNabbulousness said at 10:25 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    no, positive mental attitude, we’re not even in the 4th quarter yet

  254. 254 Patrick said at 10:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The team has to show me something then. In this game we have been terrible on offense, mediocre on ST and up and down on defense, mostly saved by some stupid Brees interceptions, the Saints have 3 times the yards we do.

    As I’m writing, LIKE THAT DESEAN. Make me believe! Go up and get that ball, show me you want it.

  255. 255 BC1968 said at 10:25 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Alright I have to come in and inject some good vibes, all my other superstitions are failing, so I’m here to win this game.

  256. 256 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:25 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    when the usual superstitions aren’t working, its time to try anything else!

  257. 257 GEAGLE said at 10:25 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    LETS GO!!! Thanks for your contribution to the “‘ju ju”

  258. 258 SeanofDead said at 10:25 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Downfield to Desean, don’t care what the coverage is, do it!

  259. 259 Tom said at 10:26 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Good god. One good drive makes this a one possesion game. I’m tired of philly fans booing as soon as something goes slightly wrong. What if the players gave up in the 3rd because they were down by 13? Be a fan and root for your team.

  260. 260 GEAGLE said at 10:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I hear you man…we are still fighting…our fans suck

  261. 261 Eagles_Fan_in_San_Fran said at 10:26 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Reggie Bush made that tackle???

  262. 262 DamonL86 said at 10:26 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i can’t get enough of the 1 yard passes to avant

  263. 263 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:26 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    thats what happens when you hit with your helmet

  264. 264 McNabbulousness said at 10:26 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    wheres the targeting call

  265. 265 ICDogg said at 10:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    NOW GO DEEP.

  266. 266 SeanofDead said at 10:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Right at the last second there, he leaned in there, tried to spear him.

  267. 267 RobNE said at 10:28 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    we should ask for a flag, and get it.

  268. 268 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:28 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    well they aren’t talking about it so its not going to happen

  269. 269 BobSmith77 said at 10:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Saints will let Avant catch the ball all day short. He’ll never make a guy miss at this point and he has zero speed. Eagles really need to upgrade their slot receiver next year.

  270. 270 jshort said at 10:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    need something form DJax

  271. 271 BC1968 said at 10:28 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Here we go guys!

  272. 272 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:28 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    so collinsworth has admitted that he lead with his helmet. how is that not a penalty? as he’s saying, the league is trying to force guys to not do that exact thing, right?

  273. 273 Insomniac said at 10:28 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Come on Djax.

  274. 274 BobSmith77 said at 10:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Why didn’t Foles snap the ball there and go for the free play? He hasn’t played decisively at all tonight.

  275. 275 BC1968 said at 10:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Woo Hoo!!!!!!!!!

  276. 276 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    djax baby!

  277. 277 GEAGLE said at 10:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Let’s go…we fuckin fight

  278. 278 McNabbulousness said at 10:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    wait, is that djax’s music?!!!!

  279. 279 SeanofDead said at 10:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    What I say, Downfield to Desean!

  280. 280 RobNE said at 10:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    how is that not also PI?

  281. 281 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    hah you read my mind. it was pretty blatant to me…

  282. 282 Corry said at 10:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Because refs.

  283. 283 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    that guy was all over djax… wow….

  284. 284 Mitchell said at 10:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    That will fucking work!!!! Let’s go Eagles!!!!

  285. 285 BlindChow said at 10:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Ugh, let’s run maybe?

  286. 286 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    POUND IT IN

  287. 287 McNabbulousness said at 10:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    cut back, shady!

  288. 288 BobSmith77 said at 10:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    McCoy is really having to make something out of nothing on that stretch play otnihg.

  289. 289 DamonL86 said at 10:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    ugh

  290. 290 McNabbulousness said at 10:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    go for it

  291. 291 RobNE said at 10:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    we really suck at short yardage runs

  292. 292 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i think we have to go for it

  293. 293 GEAGLE said at 10:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We ain’t done fighting!!!

  294. 294 McNabbulousness said at 10:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  295. 295 BobSmith77 said at 10:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Johnson and Herremans simply didn’t get it done there.

  311. 311 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:32 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    OK, offense did their job. now we need the defense to do theirs as well.

  312. 312 McNabbulousness said at 10:33 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  318. 318 Tom said at 10:33 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I thought the game was over based on the comments 5 minutes ago.

  319. 319 Insomniac said at 10:33 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    D needs to step up for 15 minutes and for the love of god don’t let Henery kick anymore.

  320. 320 Allen3000 said at 10:33 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    So you’re telling me there’s a chance??!!! (c) Lloyd Christmas. Ok, now lets get a stop defense!

  321. 321 GEAGLE said at 10:33 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    WE ain’t done fighting you sissy fans

  322. 322 BC1968 said at 10:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    There’s never not a chance with a 13 point deficit and well over a quarter left. Remember how we rolled Detroit!

  323. 323 McNabbulousness said at 10:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    henery with a touchback!!

  324. 324 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    nice kick that time. didn’t get it out of the endzone like i want every time, but it was just deep enough!

  325. 325 BobSmith77 said at 10:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    DL need to sack up this drive and help to get a stop.

  326. 326 GEAGLE said at 10:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    NO doesnt score another fuckin point!!

  333. 333 BC1968 said at 10:36 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Oh Lawdy! They calling penalties now? Finally!

  334. 334 Eagles_Fan_in_San_Fran said at 10:36 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    NO ain’t Dallas

    FOURTH QUARTER, BABY!!!

  340. 340 John Galt said at 10:37 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Play of the game coming up

  341. 341 BobSmith77 said at 10:37 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The rate at which Brees cycles through his progressions vs Foles tonight has been staggering. Brees is already on his 3rd/4th read by the time you get to 3-4 seconds.

  342. 342 Corry said at 10:38 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I think that’s something Foles can get better at. After all Foles is only in his 2nd year.

  343. 343 GEAGLE said at 10:37 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Brees you will get NOTHING and Like it…get us the ball back and shady is hitting a home run out the park

  344. 344 BC1968 said at 10:38 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Remember we had a tight playoff type game last week, they cruised at home. We can do it!

  345. 345 TommyLawlor said at 10:38 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yep.

  346. 346 BobSmith77 said at 10:39 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    NBC plays the WORST FREAKING SONGS to represent Philly given all of the choices.

  347. 347 Corry said at 10:39 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Curry!

  348. 348 BC1968 said at 10:39 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Beautiful wrap up tackle! WE needed a great tackle!

  349. 349 McNabbulousness said at 10:39 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    CURRY BABY, SPICEY!

  350. 350 GEAGLE said at 10:39 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    CURRY HUGE!!! Big time play kid

  351. 351 BobSmith77 said at 10:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Alright DL. Sacked up big time for that drive.

  352. 352 BC1968 said at 10:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

  353. 353 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    big return!!!! djax came to play! get him the ball!!!

  354. 354 John Galt said at 10:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  355. 355 Baloophi said at 10:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Anyone else shouting on that return?

  356. 356 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    me!

  357. 357 Iskar36 said at 10:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Anyone not shouting on that return? If so… GTFO

  358. 358 Eagles_Fan_in_San_Fran said at 10:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Just frightened some Niners fans!

  359. 359 SeanofDead said at 10:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Ya, you get conservative Payton

  360. 360 Insomniac said at 10:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    DJAXXXXX

  361. 361 BobSmith77 said at 10:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Go deep here.

  362. 362 Patrick said at 10:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Have DeSean gotten a return TD this year? I could live with one soon. I can even be a walk of game winner, I won’t mind.

  363. 363 RobNE said at 10:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    he has not

  364. 364 GEAGLE said at 10:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  366. 366 BC1968 said at 10:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    He had his drop of the year!!!! We’re moving!!!

  367. 367 Baloophi said at 10:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Dear Heart,

    Get me through this game and I promise I’ll give you almost the entire week off…

    Love,

    Flag

  369. 369 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:42 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    isn’t that a penalty on that tackle? we goit called for it earlier in the season

  370. 370 Insomniac said at 10:42 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yea pick on that bum Coop

  371. 371 BobSmith77 said at 10:42 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Not a bad idea but good coverage

  372. 372 GEAGLE said at 10:43 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Ahhhhh let’s go…time for the RAIN!!!

  373. 373 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:43 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    how on earth is he not being treated for a concussion? HOW

  374. 374 BC1968 said at 10:43 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Big play!!!

  375. 375 BobSmith77 said at 10:43 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I’ve been really impressed how the Saints have defended that stretch zone play tonight to the left. As good as anybody they have faced this year arguably.

  376. 376 Jean Souza said at 10:43 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    go for it Chip

  377. 377 RobNE said at 10:43 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    why does Foles throw for 4 when it’s 3rd and 6??!?!?!?

  378. 378 Crus57 said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    ‘cos they grabbed Cooper and spun him around.

  379. 379 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:43 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    try to draw them offsides here?

  380. 380 Baloophi said at 10:44 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Need those timeouts… and I don’t want to move Henery back at all. Oh. Never mind.

  381. 381 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    nah i agree with you. save the timeouts.

  382. 382 RobNE said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    are you seeing the game before me?

  383. 383 Baloophi said at 10:46 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    If so, it feels more like a curse than a special ability.

  384. 384 GEAGLE said at 10:44 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Kick a fg

  385. 385 BC1968 said at 10:44 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Good call.

  386. 386 DamonL86 said at 10:44 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    how do u run a 4 yard route

  387. 387 BC1968 said at 10:44 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Crap, better get this.

  388. 388 DamonL86 said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    disappointing

  389. 389 Insomniac said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    O man 5 yards is like 15 for Henery though

  390. 390 jshort said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    they’re mugging our receivers….not getting calls

  391. 391 BobSmith77 said at 10:46 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Both teams are really clutching and grabbing too though.

  392. 392 BlindChow said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Missed FG looking pretty bad now.

  393. 393 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    right down the middle. i like it. the earlier missed FG really looming now.

  394. 394 bdbd20 said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Damn, you just know that missed FG is gonna bite us in the ass.

  395. 395 BC1968 said at 10:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    As Andy would say, do the math, it should be tied. Something like that.

  396. 396 shah8 said at 10:46 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Like the commentators sez, Brees has to go for TD here, so we probably will see less conservative playcalling…

  397. 397 RobNE said at 10:46 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    why does Brees need to do that?

  398. 398 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:46 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    just a FG is still a one score game

  399. 399 Corry said at 10:47 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Saints D is on their heels. If the Saints go 3 and out, you could see the Eagles drive it straight down the field.

  400. 400 shah8 said at 10:47 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Pass defense no longer remotely competent.

  401. 401 BC1968 said at 10:46 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The Eagles been playing it deep. It seems to me anyways.

  402. 402 BC1968 said at 10:46 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Need a stop guys!!

  403. 403 Eagles_Fan_in_San_Fran said at 10:46 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Who’s got a Quino on them???

  404. 404 BobSmith77 said at 10:47 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    DL had another big series in them?

  405. 405 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:47 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    LETS GO DEFENSE!!!!!!!!!!

  406. 406 bdbd20 said at 10:47 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Man, I forgot about the intensity of playoff football.

    Every play is just so magnified.

  407. 407 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:47 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    C’MON HENERY! that was a shitty kickoff

  408. 408 SeanofDead said at 10:48 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Am curious how Saints respond here, I think Payton relies heavy on Ingram

  409. 409 BC1968 said at 10:48 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Grab a hold and tackle! Give them an extra 2, just stop them!

  410. 410 RobNE said at 10:48 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    the doctors making the concussion reviews during the game shouldn’t be team doctors. Problem solved.

  411. 411 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    lol i also don’t see why it should be this difficult.

  412. 412 GEAGLE said at 10:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    defense,.i loved you from day 1…now they don’t get another point….take the ball back NOW!

  413. 413 BobSmith77 said at 10:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Ingram still averaging over 6 yds/carry. C’mon.

  414. 414 OregonDucker said at 10:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    D will win the day.

  415. 415 Baloophi said at 10:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  416. 416 DamonL86 said at 10:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  420. 420 ToastJenkins said at 10:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    why is Wolff not out there?? Chung sucks

  421. 421 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i really don’t know. Wolff is active today.

  422. 422 BC1968 said at 10:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    FG stop

  423. 423 RobNE said at 10:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    oh we forgot Chung was on our team. Has Wolff not played?

  424. 424 Allen3000 said at 10:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Gotta hold em here. Nothing more than a field goal!

  425. 425 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    nice play for Logan

  426. 426 Iskar36 said at 10:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    No chance Chung is here next year. Has been a liability all season.

  427. 427 Baloophi said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Nope… just a liability.

  428. 428 Iskar36 said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Haha, thanks.

  429. 429 Crus57 said at 10:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Reliably so.

  430. 430 RobNE said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Byrd will be back there.

  431. 431 GEAGLE said at 10:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I’m sure he is watching this game, seeing he can take this defense to the next level

  432. 432 Crus57 said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Chung again.

  433. 433 GEAGLE said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Hold to 3!!!!!

  434. 434 DamonL86 said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  435. 435 BobSmith77 said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    For the love of god, please wrap up the RB!

  436. 436 BC1968 said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Come ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  437. 437 BobSmith77 said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Chung with a missed tackle that was huge. Good he is f@cking worthless.

  438. 438 McNabbulousness said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    nice missed tackle by chung

  439. 439 lilmc said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Damn Chung

  440. 440 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    if we’re going to put Chung on the field, he shouldn’t be doing anything other than run blitzing.

  441. 441 BobSmith77 said at 10:52 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Tackling dummy more appropriate.

  442. 442 ICDogg said at 10:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Shoulda kept Trash Can.

  443. 443 Mitchell said at 10:52 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Kendricks has missed on some big plays. He’s got get one now

  448. 448 BlindChow said at 10:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Chung?!

  449. 449 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i actually think that covering a RB is something that he can handle. so long as he doesn’t have to go downfield lol

  450. 450 bdbd20 said at 10:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    He’s a band-aid. We have to temper expectations. We’re 10-6 with bad safeties.

  451. 451 SeanofDead said at 10:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I haven’t seen Wolff at all

  452. 452 Baloophi said at 10:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Cue up the 8 minute drive.

    Queue up?

    Whatever… just make it happen.

  453. 453 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Queue seems to make more sense. as in “line up / get in line”

  454. 454 Crus57 said at 10:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Could be Cue as in stage cue.

  455. 455 ICDogg said at 10:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I think it’s just “Cue the 8 minute drive”

  456. 456 ICDogg said at 10:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    (without the word “up”)

  457. 457 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    that could be it. but i don’t care if we get a TD here : )

  458. 458 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    thats true! i’m too used to ‘queue’ in my life so of course i’m going to pickt hat one : P

  459. 459 BobSmith77 said at 10:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Nah. Why would the Eagles wait nearly that long to score a TD? Not Kelly.

  460. 460 bdbd20 said at 10:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Damn, it sucks to see so many good FG kickers out there.

  461. 461 GEAGLE said at 10:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    FOles? Shady? Who the fuck wants to be a LEGEND step the fuck up!

  462. 462 Eagles_Fan_in_San_Fran said at 10:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    OK: Who wouldn’t have taken THIS at the start of the season!!!

  463. 463 BlindChow said at 10:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    At least it isn’t a blowout.

  464. 464 BC1968 said at 10:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Geez, not gong to sleep for a long time tonight, no matter the outcome. Good sleep or anxious do things over and over in my head sleep. I’ll be seeing Cooper running over the middle all night.

  465. 465 jshort said at 10:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    That play to Avant ….could be big

  466. 466 BC1968 said at 10:55 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We got this guys, this separates the great from the mediocre or average.

  467. 467 GEAGLE said at 10:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yes sir!! No fear! No doubts!! Season does not end tonight! NOT TODAY!! Who wants to be a legend?

  468. 468 Baloophi said at 10:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Hope Brad Smith didn’t hurt his throwing arm on that return.

  469. 469 DamonL86 said at 10:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Good test for Foles coming up

  472. 472 BobSmith77 said at 10:57 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    It would be so nice to have a KR who is actually a legit weapon. Haven’t had one since Brian Mitchell.

  473. 473 Crus57 said at 10:57 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I dunno, some of them have done a lot of damage. To us.

  474. 474 RobNE said at 10:57 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I was thinking that too. I expected more out of this guy.

  475. 475 Baloophi said at 10:57 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    And J.R. “I can jump that fence!” Reed.

  476. 476 Crus57 said at 10:58 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We wouldn’t be in the safety problems we’re in if it wasn’t for JR Reed and his pesky dog/fence problem.

  477. 477 Tumtum said at 10:57 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    can’t you pause the DVR?

  485. 485 Baloophi said at 10:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    If we get to overtime, might i suggest an air freshener?

  486. 486 ToastJenkins said at 10:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Cooper owes us one here

  487. 487 GEAGLE said at 10:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Ertz too…one Has to pay up

  488. 488 TheRogerPodacter said at 10:59 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Couple of leg presses before you kickoff, Henery…

  531. 531 Iskar36 said at 11:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Get a few swings in with a weighted leg before kicking off

  532. 532 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    hahah ankle weights! we should mail henery a pack of them.

  533. 533 Crus57 said at 11:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I’m thinking more concrete boots once the season is over.

  534. 534 Baloophi said at 11:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Put a few weighted donuts on your leg… break out the leg-fungo… whatever it takes…

  535. 535 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    now the defense needs to do their jobs!

  536. 536 Corry said at 11:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We’re learning a lot about Foles tonight.

  537. 537 BC1968 said at 11:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Showed such smarts on that play to Jackson.

  538. 538 Iskar36 said at 11:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Very poised play there. Didn’t panic or rush to make the throw he wanted. I do wish he completed the ball since Jackson was open, but it was a very good play.

  539. 539 jshort said at 11:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Hope it’s 4th qtr Foles

  540. 540 BC1968 said at 11:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  541. 541 Patrick said at 11:04 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Fucking yes, i don’t believe it. How did we get resurrected like that? The team looked like they wanted to go golfing. Come on Defense!

  542. 542 Insomniac said at 11:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Corey White.

  543. 543 GEAGLE said at 11:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We weren’t out of it…we never stopped fighting

  544. 544 Patrick said at 11:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The problem was we didn’t start. Came out to the 3rd quarter with absolutely no heart. That DeSean jump ball for his first catch set us off.

  545. 545 scratcherk said at 11:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Foles baby

  546. 546 GEAGLE said at 11:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Now the game has to be finished with a Orton-style INT…

  549. 549 BobSmith77 said at 11:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Great job that drive of going right at there weaknesses and exploiting them.

  550. 550 BC1968 said at 11:05 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Turnover, let’s conjure up the ghosts of dallas qb past!

  551. 551 Baloophi said at 11:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Long odds: Chung redeems himself.

  552. 552 RobNE said at 11:07 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    hahahaha that’s your best one yet.

  553. 553 BC1968 said at 11:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Gotta say, these coaches know how to make adjustments.Good to know.

  554. 554 bdbd20 said at 11:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    History says we’re gonna lose on a FG, but I love being in the action again. Two years away is too much.

  555. 555 Corry said at 11:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  560. 560 BobSmith77 said at 11:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Henery’s pathetic kickoffs are killing them.

  561. 561 DamonL86 said at 11:06 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    that didnt take long

  562. 562 RobNE said at 11:07 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    well we’ll going to have to score again.

  563. 563 Jean Souza said at 11:07 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    c’mon D#. Shit in Brees’ face

  564. 564 BC1968 said at 11:07 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    sigh

  572. 572 BobSmith77 said at 11:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Nice job Logan. Got evierscated that play.

  573. 573 Baloophi said at 11:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The “hold him up to force the fumble” strategy is not paying dividends…

  574. 574 BC1968 said at 11:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We need the ball back probably!

  575. 575 Corry said at 11:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Why in the fuck do the undrafted, no name, back on the street in a few months players always make us look stupid?

  576. 576 DamonL86 said at 11:08 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    drain the clock now and kick fg to win it

  577. 577 RobNE said at 11:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    are you on the wrong board? door is to your left.

  578. 578 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    not disagreeing with you!

  581. 581 DamonL86 said at 11:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    at least the missed fg wont come back to haunt us

  582. 582 DamonL86 said at 11:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    incoming loss

  583. 583 Baloophi said at 11:09 PM on January 4th, 2014:

  602. 602 Baloophi said at 11:11 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Someone get Herm Edwards on the field…

  603. 603 jshort said at 11:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    let them score

  604. 604 andy said at 11:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    they aren’t that dumb

  605. 605 Eric Carranza said at 11:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Saints wouldn’t score with us only having 1 timeout

  606. 606 Tumtum said at 11:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Their not even gonna try. Its done

  607. 607 Mitchell said at 11:12 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Aside from Donnie jones, the special teams must get better next season.

  608. 608 Crus57 said at 11:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Punt coverage has been mostly ok, so kicking more touchbacks would help a lot with kickoff coverage.

  609. 609 BobSmith77 said at 11:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Henery was the goat of the night tonight.

  610. 610 Iskar36 said at 11:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yep. Has been disappointing unit, especially considering the emphasis put on it.

  611. 611 truthchief said at 11:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Couldnt kick out of the endzone. then cary horse collars. bad, just bad.

  612. 612 Lewwyn said at 11:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Feels like Cardinals in 2008.

  613. 613 BobSmith77 said at 11:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Saints OL just has been the better unit tonight and really shoved the Eagles around. Let the Saints just score a TD and play for the last possession.

  614. 614 BC1968 said at 11:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We need a tiny miracle, somebody WILL step up! Just mark it here guys!

  615. 615 GEAGLE said at 11:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Let’s go….

  616. 616 RobNE said at 11:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    you can’t be up one and kickoff and give the team the 50. You just can’t.

  617. 617 Tom said at 11:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Correct.

  618. 618 truthchief said at 11:13 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    whats it like to have a fullback?

  619. 619 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i thought that was one of the ways we’d use James Casey…..

  620. 620 Baloophi said at 11:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Get Geathers on FG block…

  621. 621 bdbd20 said at 11:14 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    They should have just let him score there.

  622. 622 Jean Souza said at 11:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    It’s over

  623. 623 Corry said at 11:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I feel sick.

  624. 624 GEAGLE said at 11:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Wow…just wow

  625. 625 Baloophi said at 11:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Maybe they’ll be too close to the uprights to kick it?

  626. 626 Baloophi said at 11:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Can Romo be their holder? Just for one play?

  627. 627 truthchief said at 11:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    done, good season.

  628. 628 Insomniac said at 11:15 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Do your prayers now and hope Graham shanks it.

  629. 629 Corry said at 11:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    When they show collinsworth and Michaels in the booth, I’ll be shocked if they aren’t in Saints gear.

  630. 630 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    qb sneak, anyone?

  631. 631 Isaac said at 11:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    the run defense? tired? or just out-manned?

  632. 632 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i think it was more the defensive scheme. i’ll defer to some of the writers here, but my guess is that we sold out to stop the pass and let them beat us on the ground

  633. 633 Jean Souza said at 11:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    QB sneak again?

  634. 634 Tom said at 11:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Run defense laid an egg. The line is young and will have another chance, but tonight they failed.

  635. 635 Isaac said at 11:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    saints use a fullback on QBsneaks

  636. 636 Iskar36 said at 11:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Run defense has played poorly all night, even as we mounted our comeback. Not surprising that we struggled to stop them here.

  637. 637 BobSmith77 said at 11:16 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Kelly hasn’t been outcoached tonight and it wasn’t like Davis was outschemed either.

    This DL just got owned tonight up front.

  638. 638 Jean Souza said at 11:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Oh, c’mon

  639. 639 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 11:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Special teams breakdown and couldn’t stop the run when it mattered. Damn shame

  640. 640 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    just think how we would have done if we could have stopped any ONE of those qb sneaks?!

  641. 641 Isaac said at 11:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    couldnt stop run all night

  642. 642 RobNE said at 11:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    we scored 7 in the first half. We missed a FG, Foles took bad sacks that gave them great field position. The offense does not have no blame here.

  643. 643 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    good point. it can go all around.

  644. 644 BobSmith77 said at 11:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Payton just went with what worked tonight and that was the Saints OL.

    Logan sucked and Cox has done nothing.

  645. 645 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i thought logan actually had a couple of good moments. Cox has been completely invisible, though.

  646. 646 BC1968 said at 11:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Here comes the miracle………

  647. 647 GEAGLE said at 11:17 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Logan…block that shit

  648. 648 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Geathers!!! he’s overdue to do… anything!

  649. 649 GEAGLE said at 11:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Boykin off the edge

  650. 650 Allen3000 said at 11:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Can’t believe the DL got manhandled so easily with the game on the line. Big let down.

  651. 651 Baloophi said at 11:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The 4th and inches make, followed by sack, sack missed FG is the killer.

  652. 652 Insomniac said at 11:18 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I blame Henery for this loss.

  653. 653 truthchief said at 11:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    if we cannot get a kicker that can kick out of the endzone he should go. I agree.

  654. 654 BC1968 said at 11:19 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    No good guys, no worries. Crossing the fingerssssssss 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

    Henery’s replacement

    it would be great if al michaels says “do you believe in miracles” and something crazy happens

  657. 657 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    well shit.

  658. 658 BobSmith77 said at 11:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    This game wasn’t on the offense. They put up 24 pts tonight and scored late in the 4th qtr to take the lead.

    This DL just didn’t show up again tonight and really closed the season on a down note playing poorly 3 of the last 4 weeks. No pass rush this week and got destroyed in the running game tonight.

  659. 659 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    i’ll give the D some credit for getting the ball back a few times in the second half and forcing some FGs.

  660. 660 RobNE said at 11:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    saying the offense is excused is no different than saying the defense is excused because they only gave up 6 in the first half and got turnovers. It all feeds into each other. And one happening later does not make it more important. The offense could have helped the defense a lot more.

  661. 661 shah8 said at 11:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Oh, yes it was. Defense held NO to 26 points, and held NO to just a few points in the half. They also got two turnovers! Defense is the one that gets most of the credit for the good game!

  662. 662 Breezy said at 12:31 AM on January 5th, 2014:

    Defense came up short big time towards the end. Offense gave the defense a lead at crunch time and the didnt do so hot

  663. 663 Lewwyn said at 11:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Team Loss.

  664. 664 Breezy said at 12:20 AM on January 5th, 2014:

    When it really matters, our DL and linebackers can only *almost* get where they need to be. This looied a lot like the Minn game; a lot of defenders around Brees, arms up, about to get the strip, there goes the ball for a sizeable gain. This offense has players you can rely on to come through. The defense itself does not. This needs to be addressed. If it helps to get Roc Charmichael and Chung off this team, I will pitch in for their plane tickets.

  665. 665 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    all right, well its been great, guys. thanks for the fun season.

  666. 666 Baloophi said at 11:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Indeed.

  667. 667 Crus57 said at 11:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Hear hear. Hell of a ride for the first season with a new coach, a new starting QB and a new defensive scheme.

  668. 668 Isaac said at 11:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    really who cares. 10-7

  669. 669 Bob Brewer said at 11:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    So where are we drafting?

  670. 670 BobSmith77 said at 11:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Clutch my a$$. That was a gimme.

  671. 671 BC1968 said at 11:20 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Couldn’t stop the running game.

  672. 672 Jean Souza said at 11:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Great season guys. It’s only the first year of Chipster’s era.

  673. 673 Mitchell said at 11:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Henery is gone.

  674. 674 BlindChow said at 11:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    At least Andy lost too.

  675. 675 Corry said at 11:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I never want to see Henery in Eagle green ever again.

  676. 676 shah8 said at 11:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Don’t forget what took the ball out of Henery’s range, though.

  677. 677 Mitchell said at 11:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Let’s get rid of Foles instead!

  678. 678 shah8 said at 11:26 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Why? He’s a good backup, spot starter.

  679. 679 xeynon said at 11:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Going to preempt the angry responses to this one by reminding everyone:

    Don’t feed the troll.

  680. 680 shah8 said at 11:37 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I’m not the troll here, There’s a couple of Foles Eagles fans up there. I’m a Philadelphia Eagles fan.

    Still, that is exactly what it is. Remember that little number the NBC commentators showed? 16-195 or something like that for road teams turning the ball over? Now it’s 17. And it could be argued that the only reason there needed to be a last minute field goal was because the best corner got hurt.

    Talent is Talent is Talent. Alex Smith had four TDs. But he disappeared when his team needed him most. In the playoffs, what matters is the ability to make plays, in spite of it all. It’s not the whole game of football. But it’s the magical part. Plenty of those people on the sidelines probably do think they’d have done better with Vick. Not that it matters, since we don’t have the horses on defense for a real run.

    When this weekend started, Mike Tanier, in his playoff preview, mentioned Trent Green as having run something similar, or have had similar numbers, but when the playoffs rolled around, he was 0-2. If you don’t believe me, I bet watching Andy Dalton make what should be a blowout into a close game might introduce more doubts.

  681. 681 ICDogg said at 11:38 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    While I don’t agree with you about several things, I have never considered you to be a troll.

  682. 682 shah8 said at 11:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I only depend on being honest. For my own sake, and not for anyone else. I benefit from being challenged, and I like to think that I’m actually contributing to something. I would say what I say, regardless of the approval or disapproval of anyone else, and yup, this is not the only forum I’ve rubbed people wrong with a strong voice. However, I usually make out alright, because I only *really* speak up when I’m very sure I’m right.

  683. 683 ICDogg said at 11:44 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    You’re OK with me. Although, you might be a little *too* sure you’re right. I see a lot more room for uncertainty.

  684. 684 xeynon said at 11:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    And it has been pointed out to you numerous times that talent is not all what you think it is. By your standards for judging quarterbacking talent, Montana, Brady, and Warner are lacking (despite all being Super Bowl winners), while Joe Webb is a platonic ideal. That contention is so absurd that it does not require a response.

    Foles is young. This was his first playoff game, and he played well enough to put them in position to win against what is top-to-bottom a more talented opponent. We’re going to need to see more of him before we can declare him good enough, but so far he’s given us no reason to doubt him.

  685. 685 ConcussedFB said at 11:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Your probably smiling from ear to ear

  686. 686 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    yep. a lot of people have their hands in this loss:
    Foles – took too many sacks in the first half on what should have been quick throwaways.
    Cooper – big drop on third down (did the saints turn that into points?)
    Defense – the DL got beat in the trenches. gotta be able to stop the QB sneak one out of the 5 times they tried it.
    Special Teams – missed FG, poor distance on kickoffs, poor coverage.

  687. 687 91mr2t said at 12:02 AM on January 5th, 2014:

    True Foles did take a bad sack or two tonight, but dont forget who drove us down the field twice in the 4th quarter and gave us a lead with less than 5 minutes on the clock and a chance to win.

  688. 688 Insomniac said at 11:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    He’s not going to be in the league anymore so don’t worry.

  689. 689 Corry said at 11:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I’d like to see Bill Davis fired too, but that might be asking too much.

  690. 690 Isaac said at 11:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    his kick coverage was horrible. he should have made the tackle on sproles at the 4. yeah missed 48 yarder. BLAME KELLY. he kept him all year

  691. 691 lilmc said at 11:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Or Chung!

  692. 692 shah8 said at 11:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Chung? Now, Chung? He’s dead man walking.

  693. 693 xeynon said at 11:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yeah. Henery is just okay. Chung is actively and regularly a liability.

  694. 694 shah8 said at 11:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Akers in 2010, no matter his daughter’s cancer, was a far more material reason for an Eagle’s playoff loss. I believe he *really* shanked an easy one as well as another.

  695. 695 McNabbulousness said at 11:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    come on, don’t give me that, a past his prime akers (granted makeable kicks) i think you’re forgetting us moving the ball at will in the waning seconds when vick pulled a vick with a very favreian bullshit underthrown ball to cooper that got intercepted

  696. 696 ConcussedFB said at 12:04 AM on January 5th, 2014:

    No matter his daughter’s cancer? Your on fire tonight, moving past clown right to complete asshole.

  697. 697 BC1968 said at 11:21 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    This happened in ’06, we couldn’t get them off the field. What a fuck fuck

  698. 698 kajomo said at 11:22 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Alex henry missed a fg and cannot kick the ball out of the endOne when it matters. He is responsible for 2 huge negative plays today

  699. 699 McNabbulousness said at 11:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    not saying cut the guy tomorrow but you saw it at the end of the season, you need to get touchbacks to nullify dangerous special teamers. and hell, you need to make a 48 yarder with as good a conditions you’ll get outside a dome this time of year. that may have been a long field goal 10-15 years ago, not anymore in 2014

  700. 700 Baloophi said at 11:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    If you had told me before the game we’d give the Saints 26 points, I would’ve taken it.

  701. 701 OregonDucker said at 11:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Thanks for the memories……

  702. 702 xeynon said at 11:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Disappointing loss, but let’s be honest: this team’s defense was going to get it knocked out of the playoffs sooner or later. It turned out to be sooner. Special teams let us down too (missed FG, big return on that last kickoff).

    They’re one of the youngest teams in the league and they have some great pieces in place, especially on offense. They know what they need to work on on the other side of the ball. The future is bright, finally.

  703. 703 BobSmith77 said at 11:24 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Agreed

  704. 704 OregonDucker said at 11:25 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We can be sad but not disappointed. They played their hearts out.

  705. 705 McNabbulousness said at 11:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    yeah, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year, they didn’t lay down and almost pulled it out, just didn’t get it done on special teams

  706. 706 Isaac said at 11:23 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    why is Henery the goat? Kelly made the decision to keep him. Shayne Graham was out there.

  707. 707 GEAGLE said at 11:24 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Need to get Bigger on the defensive line,..square can’t be a backup NT, when we alteady have curry who is undersides…if we can’t get Shede Hagemen, then I want the lineman to be 335lbs plus…Nix, BJ Raji…need SIZE!!

  708. 708 BobSmith77 said at 11:25 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yup. Logan really got pushed around all night tonight and their DE had no contain all night.

  709. 709 xeynon said at 11:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I think a truly disruptive outside pass rusher, a playmaking safety, and additional cornerback help are bigger needs on defense… the earlier wild card game turned around with that Mathis strip sack, and we don’t have a guy who consistently makes plays like that. I love me some Trent Cole, but he’s a high-effort guy who gets his sacks by fighting through blocks when the coverage is good, not a guy who beats offensive linemen with natural ability. As for Connor Barwin, he’s an excellent all-around OLB, but not a fearful pass rusher either. A guy like Vic Beasley is what the team should be looking at.

  710. 710 GEAGLE said at 11:33 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We don’t play Dime, and Cary,Brad and Boykin are your starters the next 3 years..

    Beasly is 6’2 235lbs…doubt we draft him..Chip wants them 6’6 260:
    Jeffcoat
    Kony Ealy
    Trent Murphy

    We are a contender so we can’t draft a safety, because we can’t play with a rookie and sophomore Wolff..so we have to sign a veteran safety..
    ..
    Add a big di linemen instead of a CB

    Two WRs

    Guard depth

  711. 711 xeynon said at 11:40 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Beasley can put on weight with NFL training methods. Von Miller was pretty much the same size when he came out. I look for proven playmaking ability first and foremost. Jeffcoat would be okay, but I’m not sure about his ability in coverage. Ealy from what I know is all natural ability. little production. Scared of guys like that.

    As for the CBs, I don’t think a Williams/Fletcher/Boykin trio is good enough. BB is excellent, but the other two are just average starters with above average toughness. Definitely can be upgraded.

    And I’d be careful with the “we’re a contender, we need to fill needs” talk. That kind of thinking was what led to the downfall of the Andy Reid regime. Drafting BPA and making smart, good fit FA signings like Barwin is what helped the team turn around so fast. I’d like to see more of that approach.

  712. 712 Baloophi said at 11:24 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The other “hidden” points were the 3 the Saints put up with 1:48 left in the first half. That was an old Andy Reid trick.

  713. 713 BC1968 said at 11:26 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Foles got them the lead, the defense should’ve at least got him the ball back. One way to never become clutch, not having the ball in your hands for a final drive. Lousy effort letting them run the ball down your throat at the end

  714. 714 OregonDucker said at 11:26 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Drink is the only relief from the PAIN.

    How many touchbacks did the saints kicker have. I don’t remember any. In the cold the ball doesn’t go far.

  716. 716 BobSmith77 said at 11:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    This was yet another game where the Eagles lost the battle in the trenches and did so badly.

    Give the Saints a lot of credit on DL and doing a great job of defending the stretch play to the left tonight and completely snuffing out the screens tonight.

  717. 717 BlindChow said at 11:27 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I’m just glad it wasn’t an embarrassing loss like a blowout or the game the Chiefs had.

  718. 718 Baloophi said at 11:28 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    And there was hope before Sconces went Scones.

  719. 719 Corry said at 11:28 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I don’t blame him for the horse collar. It was going to be Sproles vs. Henery if he got past Sconces.

  720. 720 Baloophi said at 11:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Well, whatever the case, that was the play the music died.

  721. 721 BobSmith77 said at 11:28 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Ball was still out over the 35 and the Saints OL had pushed around the Eagles DL all night tonight.

  722. 722 McNabbulousness said at 11:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    no fucking way, thats on henery’s inability to get it deep

  723. 723 BobSmith77 said at 11:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Goats of the night

    1. Henery
    2. Logan (pick anyone on the DL really though)
    3. left side of the Eagles OL

  724. 724 RobNE said at 11:29 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    sigh when does FA start? These guys tried to shore up weaknesses so we can draft BPA, so I would not be surprised to see them go after Byrd.

  725. 725 NicaEagle said at 11:30 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We will be back

  726. 726 BobSmith77 said at 11:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    6-133 in the playoffs for teams with a -2 or worse TO margin? Ugh.

  727. 727 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 11:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Rob Ryan put together a nice plan and they ran the ball down our throats. A little disappointing to go out like that, regardless of your expectations.

  728. 728 BobSmith77 said at 11:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yup. Didn’t blitz nearly as much as I thought he would, trusted his CB to play man, and played 8 up all night long.

    Disappointed the Eagles weren’t able to exploit matchups though in the 1st half a bit more especially Harper. Really need an upgrade over Avant. Painfully slow. A big physical WR who can’t be banged around in man coverage either would be huge.

  729. 729 McNabbulousness said at 11:36 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    give kelly a little time to get guys that aren’t holdovers from the last regime, i think we did really well considering all the changes across the board

  730. 730 Corry said at 11:31 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    You’d think I’d be used to this having been an Eagles fan for so long, but it never hurts any less.

  731. 731 McNabbulousness said at 11:32 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    very true

  732. 732 nicolajNN said at 11:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    There it is, that hollow empty feeling after a tough and heartbreaking loss. At least I have a reason to feel this way, but damn it hurts. Then comes the knowledge that there’s 8/9 months till we play again 🙁

  733. 733 Crus57 said at 11:34 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The Saints D allowed 19 points per game this season, so at least we topped that.

  734. 734 Frencheaglesfan said at 11:35 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    That sucks that the two biggest liabilities of our team are the reason we lost. Chung and henery did the opposite of stepping up. But the future looks Bright.

  735. 735 Flyin said at 11:37 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The Eagles are a factory of sadness…

  736. 736 truthchief said at 11:37 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    The anvil just hit me in the head, the cigar blew up in my face, the gift i opened had a pile of dooky in it. Im an Eagles fan.

  737. 737 McNabbulousness said at 11:48 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    you forgot the crotch shot, banana peel slip aspect of it as well

  738. 738 ICDogg said at 11:37 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    We can bitch about Chung and Henery all night but the offense was playing poorly for much of the night, and only picked up after their corner got injured.

  739. 739 Crus57 said at 11:38 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I dunno about poorly, this Saints D isn’t the awful mess we’re used to seeing.

  740. 740 Frencheaglesfan said at 11:39 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Same for the saints O. It´s playoff so it´s a bigger challenge. The difference of the game is stepping up at the right moment or at least execute. Chung and henery did the opposite.

  741. 741 ICDogg said at 11:52 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I’m just saying, I’m not letting the offense off the hook. There is some work to be done there, as teams have adjusted to much of what we are doing.

  742. 742 Frencheaglesfan said at 11:56 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    So I agree, I hope we can have maclin and cooper back at top shape. I would also like to see some back-up o-line stepping up to prepare to replace the current aging starters. The only big question remaining in our O is can foles do it again? I tend to say yes.

  743. 743 GEAGLE said at 11:38 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Sign:
    Byrd
    BJ Raji
    ….
    Draft:
    1) Kelvin Benjamin
    2) Jarvis Landry
    2) Jackson Jeffcoat.

    BOOM!

  744. 744 Insomniac said at 11:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    You mean 3rd for Jeffcoat right?

    I’d be happy as shit if we got either receiver. They’ll bring a physical presence that we need.

  745. 745 GEAGLE said at 11:47 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Yeah,,

  746. 746 GEAGLE said at 11:49 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Take an accurate young QB, and sorround him with
    Desean
    Coop
    Maclin
    Benjamin
    Landry
    Avant to teach them how to be a pro
    Ertz
    Celek
    Casey
    ……
    And we are set!!

  747. 747 McNabbulousness said at 11:46 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    hell id sign two safetys if we couldn’t get them in the draft

  748. 748 Julescat said at 11:38 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    and then despair set in

  749. 749 Teehee said at 11:38 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    I wouldn’t be nearly as dissapointed with this loss had we been blown out. It sucks that it was such a winnable game and just came down to poor execution and missed opportunities.

  750. 750 Crus57 said at 11:39 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    On the other hand, this was the first year. Execution can only get better with another offseason of work, especially now Chip has seen what the NFL can throw at him and what NFL players are actually capable of.

  751. 751 Frencheaglesfan said at 11:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Totally disagree, being blownout means we don ´t belong there. Close game means we missed our chance and in the nfl you don ´t have free shots to Get back there.

  752. 752 Flyin said at 11:41 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Not use Shady early is just f’ing …you be the judge,

  753. 753 NicaEagle said at 11:42 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    At least we did blow a 28 point lead. we made a game of it

  754. 754 Crus57 said at 11:43 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Came back from 13pts down to take the lead in the 4th.

  755. 755 McNabbulousness said at 11:50 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    and we didn’t have to worry about andy reid’s game management! he gets a lot shit (and deservedly so) but i still love big red and i feel for him after that chiefs loss

  756. 756 Flyin said at 12:00 AM on January 5th, 2014:

    I was rooting against him and thought the road team demise would continue… yet chip and the eagles are no better.

  757. 757 GEAGLE said at 11:43 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    Encouraging to see how well our young QB carried himself in playoff football.
    ..
    Never did I think our Run defense wouldn’t hold up, so that’s dissapointing
    ,,
    Chip basically said we will address the FG kicker

    Disappointed in shady and the run game, but JP,Kelce,Todd should all be better next year after getting over the injury…and Lane will improve drastically. Still expected more of an advantage today on both sides of the run game and that’s the difference in the game

  758. 758 McNabbulousness said at 11:53 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    they’ll be improved for sure but i don’t think they’ll be able to replicate their amazing health from this year. probably going to regress a little next year in terms of injuries

  759. 759 McNabbulousness said at 11:45 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    hell if you’re in to the sabermetrics of the sport, a 7 point game historically is a toss up/breaks of the game/etc type deal. we win in dallas by two and lose tonight by two. it sucks hard that we lost but when you let it get to within a touchdown margin thats what happens.

  760. 760 Flyin said at 11:54 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    That is what happens when you are out coached and out played. At home with a dome team… the Eagles failed miserably!

  761. 761 Flyin said at 11:51 PM on January 4th, 2014:

    This game was a f’ing disgrace! I am so pissed off at the use of players it boggles my mind.

  762. 762 Breezy said at 12:04 AM on January 5th, 2014:

    At the end I was literally screaming for the D to let them in at the end. This game was going to be won or lost by Foles not out soft defense. Giving up 5-6 yards a clip when there are 3 players in the backfiels is a recipe for disaster, and the defense let it happen ALL GAME. I was ecstatic they got turnovers in the first half, but poor execution down he strecth will not a playoff game win you.

    The offense SHOULD have executed better at many crucial moments in the game (heres looking at you Riley Cooper. As an aside, I was behind Cooper but after tonight I would love nothing more than an upgrade on him and avant), but I believe the odds would have been better for us with our offense on the field with a chance for the W than the Saints ST. It’s a madden strategy if there ever was one, but maybe, just maybe, had we let them in I ould not have this pitiful feeling in my gut. Oh well, I suppose its better than the crap stew I have been eating since 2010. Here’s to a strong (get Chung and Henery on the next plane to Canada strong? I sure hope so) Offseason.
