    Ouch, Asomugha out.

  2. 2 Daz said at 10:20 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Has Mac been targeted yet?

  3. 3 Corry Henry said at 10:21 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Loved the run, but if he kept running up the sideline instead of cutting it inside he gains at least another 5 yards.

  4. 4 bdbd20 said at 10:22 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    What’s this trick play where the QB gives the ball to the RB and the RB just runs with it? Is this some sort of Arena league garbage?

  5. 5 Thorin McGee said at 12:03 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    Bravo!

  6. 6 lilmc said at 10:22 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Shove it down their throat!!

  7. 7 DamonL86 said at 10:23 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    punch it in no fg here

  8. 8 Zachary Kaplan said at 10:23 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I say run it again.

  9. 9 Zachary Kaplan said at 10:24 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    a TD would have been nice. But some nice running on that drive. A nice quick throws too.

  10. 10 TommyLawlor said at 10:27 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Real good drive.

  11. 11 teltschikfakeout88 said at 10:25 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    2nd goal run, I think if shady just follows havili he gets in.

  12. 12 mc said at 10:26 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Darn, I think McCoy had a TD on 2nd down if he followed Havili’s block. No chance on 3rd.

  13. 13 TommyLawlor said at 10:27 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Shady went too wide on that.

  14. 14 Corry Henry said at 10:26 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    What is up with our coverage unit tonight?

  15. 15 DamonL86 said at 10:27 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    i thought we had the best special teams coach in the land

  16. 16 nicolajNN said at 10:28 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    We’re also without out two (maybe 3) best ST players

  17. 17 Arby1 said at 10:30 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    April looking more like December…

  18. 18 bdbd20 said at 10:31 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Let’s give it some time. A lot of new guys in there. I believe we’ll have one of the better units by the end of the season

  19. 19 teltschikfakeout88 said at 10:27 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Special teams coverage just crappy.

  20. 20 TommyLawlor said at 10:28 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Gonna give me a heart attack.

  21. 21 P_P_K said at 10:33 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Giants haven’t turned the ball over… jinx!

  22. 22 Corry Henry said at 10:33 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I HATE that salsa dance.

  23. 23 teltschikfakeout88 said at 10:34 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Yep I fuckin hate Cruz.

  24. 24 TommyLawlor said at 10:35 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I hate NBC playing his stupid salsa music. Barf.

  25. 25 Zachary Kaplan said at 10:36 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I want the defense from the first 28 minutes to come back.

  26. 26 Daz said at 10:37 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    ryans looked hesitant on the TD pass, I thought he had an angle on it…

  27. 27 DamonL86 said at 10:36 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    i want our offense to be able to score from 1 yard out.

  28. 28 Zachary Kaplan said at 10:37 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    and where’s our defensive line been on those last two drives, no pressure at all.

  29. 29 bdbd20 said at 10:37 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    One thing that really bugs me is that every kicker in the league seems to be able to kick it out of the endzone, except for ours.

  30. 30 nicolajNN said at 10:40 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I think that’s on purpose, kicking high and short in hopes of stopping them inside the 20. Of course without our best ST’ers that might not be a good idea

  31. 31 Steag209 said at 10:39 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Our special teams needs to step it up big time or we’re in trouble

  32. 32 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 10:39 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Momentum shifting…WTF was that. All day and terrible decision

  33. 33 Corry Henry said at 10:40 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Funny thing happens when you establish the run: The play action pass actually works.

  34. 34 rls255 said at 10:40 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    We need to answer back with points.

  35. 35 A_T_G said at 10:40 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    so play action works after you actually run it?

  36. 36 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 10:40 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Good to know he can hit a wide open receiver…

    By the way, don’t run anywhere near JPP

  37. 37 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 10:41 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    That reminds me, why not a bootleg with Vick at the goal line???

  38. 38 Corry Henry said at 10:43 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Are you serious? Blowing timeouts in a tight game can really come back to haunt you.

  39. 39 P_P_K said at 10:43 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Once more, is Maclin playing?

  40. 40 A_T_G said at 10:44 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I saw him once… on the sideline.

  41. 41 P_P_K said at 10:45 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Thanks.

  42. 42 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 10:45 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    For a team with “so much talent” it sure is easy for these guys to absolutely disappear during long stretches

  43. 43 onemorebop said at 10:45 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Yep, not that you’d notice.

  44. 44 nicolajNN said at 10:46 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    One target

  45. 45 nicolajNN said at 10:46 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Two now

  46. 46 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 10:43 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Hmmm…a timeout that they may need later? Nah

  47. 47 DamonL86 said at 10:46 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    nice kick fgs are not gonna win it for us though

  48. 48 Corry Henry said at 10:47 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Especially with our Defense currently MIA.

  49. 49 A_T_G said at 10:46 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    That stalled pretty quickly, but a nice kick.

  50. 50 P_P_K said at 10:47 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Good to see with McBriar holding.

  51. 51 Corry Henry said at 10:47 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    And now, let’s talk about Drew Brees….for…what reason?

  52. 52 Corry Henry said at 10:48 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Holy shit, make a tackle for crying out loud

  53. 53 DamonL86 said at 10:48 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    wow

  54. 54 onemorebop said at 10:48 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    If we lose this game, it’s going to be because of these mammoth run backs.

  55. 55 Daz said at 10:48 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    oh my god are you kidding?! ST – wtf?!

  56. 56 teltschikfakeout88 said at 10:48 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Special teams again..?

  57. 57 teltschikfakeout88 said at 10:49 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Just have Henry kick it deep

  58. 58 Daz said at 10:50 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    we’d start with better field position if he kicked it over the sideline!

  59. 59 A_T_G said at 10:50 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Ha, yep.

  60. 60 A_T_G said at 10:49 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nnamdi has a visor now, half a hour too late.

  61. 61 A_T_G said at 10:50 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Hmm, a timeout? They might need that later.

  62. 62 rls255 said at 10:51 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nice stop!

  63. 63 rls255 said at 10:54 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nm, i take that back.

  64. 64 lilmc said at 10:52 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Cox blew that play up!!

  65. 65 Corry Henry said at 10:53 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Really? Was that our “let’s not cover Cruz because they’ll never expect it” defense?!

  66. 66 A_T_G said at 10:53 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Damn it

  67. 67 TommyLawlor said at 10:54 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Can I quote you on that?

  68. 68 DamonL86 said at 10:53 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    that looked way to easy for a 4th and 1 play

  69. 69 TommyLawlor said at 10:54 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Probably a good play design. High risk, high reward.

  70. 70 bdbd20 said at 10:53 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Um, that was a little too easy. So much for that solid defense we showed in the first half. I’m feeling another damn salsa dance coming soon.

  71. 71 teltschikfakeout88 said at 10:53 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Craptastic. Two scores set up by our crap special teams

  72. 72 Zachary Kaplan said at 10:54 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I feel like that’s our team in a nut shell. Come up huge one play, just to have a the next be a huge letdown.

  73. 73 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 10:54 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Lets see if Vick can match Eli drive for drive in the 4th quarter

  74. 74 Zachary Kaplan said at 10:55 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Eli has basically been kept clean the last 17 minutes, maybe a bit longer. I think we need to hit him and force a TO, or they’ll keep marching for the rest of the game.

  75. 75 Daz said at 10:55 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Definitely could use a turnover here…

  76. 76 Corry Henry said at 10:56 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Ask and ye shall receive.

  77. 77 P_P_K said at 10:56 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Great call on the to!

  78. 78 Daz said at 10:56 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Zach, we’re totally claiming that as an assist!

  79. 79 DamonL86 said at 10:56 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    nice pick take a knee

  80. 80 Zachary Kaplan said at 10:56 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Terrible decision to take it out, but great play by DRC.

  81. 81 lilmc said at 10:56 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    DRC!!!!!!!

  82. 82 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 10:56 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    That’s surprising!

  83. 83 Felix said at 10:57 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    DRC is KING!!

  84. 84 Corry Henry said at 10:57 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Now THAT is effective blocking. Just trip the oncoming blitzer.

  85. 85 Daz said at 10:58 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Bell makes one hell of a block with his right big toe!

  86. 86 Zachary Kaplan said at 10:58 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Didn’t like the way Havili carried that ball.

  87. 87 P_P_K said at 10:58 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    We’ve got the mojo now.

  88. 88 onemorebop said at 10:58 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    All the weird handoffs in our run game always make me nervous.

  89. 89 Zachary Kaplan said at 10:58 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Come on Reid/MM give me a ghost reverse.

  90. 90 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 10:59 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nice rhythm on this drive

  91. 91 A_T_G said at 10:59 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    This is, by far, our best game this year. Lets finish it.

  92. 92 Corry Henry said at 10:59 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I think if i tried to make the cuts that McCoy makes, the MCLs, ACLs, PCLs, and any other CLs in my knees would explode.

  93. 93 Felix said at 11:01 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nice drive! Sustain it big time

  94. 94 A_T_G said at 11:01 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    The announcing is great. Two drives ago Collinsworth was saying how disciplined the Giants are on the back side, now he says how terrible they have been all night.

  95. 95 TommyLawlor said at 11:04 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    So true. And both times…JPP.

  96. 96 Arby1 said at 11:54 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Good catch.

  97. 97 onemorebop said at 11:01 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Also scary: how every 1/10 passes from Mike Vick are a complete WTF moment.

  98. 98 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:01 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    It’ s nit picking during this game, but Vick has had a few – what the hell throws?….

  99. 99 DamonL86 said at 11:01 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    we need a td here
    and fail again

  100. 100 Felix said at 11:02 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    bid 3rd coming

  101. 101 Felix said at 11:02 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Damn -but good decision by vick not to throw it and play it safe

  102. 102 bdbd20 said at 11:02 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nice decision there by Vick. Take the FG attempt.

  103. 103 TommyLawlor said at 11:03 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Agreed. TD would have been awesome, but don’t be greedy.

  104. 104 bdbd20 said at 11:05 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I like what I’ve seen from Vick so far. Not superman, just run the offense. Get the ball in the hands of the playmakers and make a play once in a while.

  105. 105 A_T_G said at 11:04 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    He even felt the rush behind him. Pocket presence?

  106. 106 Corry Henry said at 11:03 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I’m going to be a nervous wreck until they score a TD.

  107. 107 Felix said at 11:03 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    hey guys, as we catch a break – greetz from austria, europe!

  108. 108 Arby1 said at 11:05 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Wait, Austria’s in Europe now? Thought it was next to New Zealand…

  109. 109 Felix said at 11:05 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Man, that is Australia you are talking about ;)) I am from Schwarzenegger country 😉

  110. 110 Arby1 said at 11:07 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Thanks, it’s never too late to get a geography lesson. But I was kidding.

  111. 111 Felix said at 11:16 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    who do u tell, its 5 am here 😉

  112. 112 A_T_G said at 11:13 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    So not Austrailia? Your from the one with Eveta then? Don’t cry for you?

  113. 113 Felix said at 11:21 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Close pal – madonna hopefully never sings about my hometown 😉

  114. 114 A_T_G said at 11:03 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Ug, 6 point lead: recipe for heartache.

  115. 115 DamonL86 said at 11:04 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    This ^

  116. 116 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 11:05 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I’ll be extrememly surprised if the birds don’t get the ball back

  117. 117 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 11:03 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Finally starting to play like a play-off team. Nice play calls on that drive and good excecution

  118. 118 lilmc said at 11:04 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Sqib kick this thing.

  119. 119 A_T_G said at 11:05 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Really, there is very little downside to an onsides attempt…

  120. 120 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:05 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Maybe we should squib or kick it out of bounds….I’m just saying.

  121. 121 Corry Henry said at 11:05 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Our coverage team woke up! Hurray!

  122. 122 A_T_G said at 11:06 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Great coverage. And you were worried.

  123. 123 lilmc said at 11:07 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    The Bobby April Rope-a-Dope.

  124. 124 bdbd20 said at 11:07 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    We may very well lose this game, but the maturity and decision making from Vick is very encouraging. Very much like the 2nd half against Baltimore.

  125. 125 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 11:08 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nice tackle Nnamdi

  126. 126 Daz said at 11:09 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    can Nnamdi still see??

  127. 127 DamonL86 said at 11:09 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    That didn’t take long so glad we are kicking fgs

  128. 128 Felix said at 11:09 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    What the hell is nnamdi doing???

  129. 129 Corry Henry said at 11:09 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Coleman is biting on EVERYTHING.

  130. 130 Corry Henry said at 11:10 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    It’s not Nnamdi. It’s Coleman biting on every play fake.

  131. 131 A_T_G said at 11:10 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    So, we will get the ball back…

  132. 132 DamonL86 said at 11:10 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    and losing

  133. 133 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 11:11 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nnamdi always thinks he has help…

    Way too easy

  134. 134 Corry Henry said at 11:11 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    And he’s supposed to. Watch Coleman on the playfakes. He charges the line every single time.

  135. 135 Corry Henry said at 11:11 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    That was sickening.

  136. 136 Felix said at 11:11 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Did not like that drive

  137. 137 teltschikfakeout88 said at 11:11 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Just terrible play by the safeties

  138. 138 A_T_G said at 11:11 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    What the hell was that?!

  139. 139 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:11 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Well blowing that went faster than I thought it would.

  140. 140 Steag209 said at 11:12 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    NNamdi has lost a step, we got him a year too late

  141. 141 TommyLawlor said at 11:12 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Didn’t look good there.

  142. 142 Felix said at 11:12 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    That was awful….

  143. 143 DarthBanner said at 11:13 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Juan’s defense has really fallen apart in the 2nd half. If not for the gift interception from Eli, the Eagles might be out of it already.

  144. 144 Felix said at 11:13 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Hey guyy, what do u think is our best CB?

  145. 145 bdbd20 said at 11:13 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I’m willing to give Nnamdi a break this game, but the safeties have been awful the last few drives.

    Bobby April, on the hot seat.

  147. 147 Julz said at 11:15 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I think it’s time we start looking at some different options in the return game, absolutely nothing over the first 4 games.

  148. 148 Corry Henry said at 11:15 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Need 7 here offense.

  149. 149 DamonL86 said at 11:15 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    we just need this drive to last 6 more minutes and kick the fg

  150. 150 P_P_K said at 11:15 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    The Giants D is tired.

  151. 151 lilmc said at 11:16 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Niether team playing D right now

  152. 152 Corry Henry said at 11:17 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Theirs is tired. Ours is clueless.

  153. 153 Felix said at 11:17 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Maclin is alive!

  154. 154 Dan Bandekow said at 11:17 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    nnamdi asomugha is a liability. Is it just me or were we much better with him on the sidelines? It is about time someone mentioned it. If we lose I blame nnamdi asomugha. he might not of given up the TD but the only reason they were in the redzone was because he blew 2 plays in a row

    Only so much you can do when you make a guy go one way and expect help from your safety who bites on every play fake.

    that was really a pleasure to watch.

  158. 158 Corry Henry said at 11:20 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Excellent drive. need to top it off with 6 here.

  159. 159 P_P_K said at 11:21 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Tomorrow I’m going to complain that the run:pass ratio isn’t always this balanced.

  160. 160 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:21 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    One of these days I would like a game like the 49ers had today. I can enjoy watching rather than being on edge the whole time.

  161. 161 bdbd20 said at 11:22 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nice gameplan here. Maybe a shotgun draw or a shovel pass, but let’s keep it simple and kick the FG if we need to. TD would be nice, but let’s get the lead and if Eli wins it, so be it.

  162. 162 Corry Henry said at 11:23 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I know they think highly of Brown, but COME ON!

  163. 163 A_T_G said at 11:25 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    wtf was that?

  167. 167 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 11:27 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I actually like that call. Gmen just played it well

  168. 168 Corry Henry said at 11:28 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I think they wasted a down giving it to Brown. McCoy is our playmaker. Let him try to punch it in.

  169. 169 iskar36 said at 11:29 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I didn’t have a major problem with the call. I may have preferred handing the ball to McCoy who has been gashing the defense in the 4th quarter, but it was a reasonably safe play, and I’m ok wih that.

  170. 170 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:28 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Too much time left for Eli. We could have really used on of those close FG’s to be TD’s

  171. 171 A_T_G said at 11:28 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Let’s pick off the first pass and save the drama.

  172. 172 mc said at 11:28 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    If the safeties bite on play action on this drive, I think I might cry.

  173. 173 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:29 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Jesus, what they need 35 yards?

  174. 174 Daz said at 11:29 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I know you’ve all said it, but that coverage is disgraceful!

  175. 175 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:29 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Come on DL

  176. 176 Corry Henry said at 11:30 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    C’mon Defense. Show us how far you’ve come.

  177. 177 Julz said at 11:30 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    This kick off coverage has ruined my day.

  178. 178 DamonL86 said at 11:30 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    how do you not get to the qb on that snap

  179. 179 DamonL86 said at 11:32 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Wow just wow that is your game

  180. 180 Corry Henry said at 11:32 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    They’re in field goal range. Game’s over.

  181. 181 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:32 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Long FG range is like 70 against the Eagles.

  182. 182 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:34 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Can we get the replacement refs back?

  183. 183 Corry Henry said at 11:34 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    That oen was bullshit. Bullshit.

  184. 184 Daz said at 11:35 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    except for a takeaway – the refs just cost us the game.

  185. 185 Corry Henry said at 11:35 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    That’s gotta be OPI.

  186. 186 mc said at 11:36 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    The refs giveth, the refs taketh away.

  187. 187 DamonL86 said at 11:37 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    The curse of the long fg against us coming up

  188. 188 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:37 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    OH FUCK!

  189. 189 Corry Henry said at 11:37 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  190. 190 Zachary Kaplan said at 11:37 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    First missed FG against us in forever and it’s a TO

  191. 191 DamonL86 said at 11:37 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    we are gonna get burnt by the icing the kicker that never works

  192. 192 Daz said at 11:38 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    AR should ban himself from EVER calling timeouts…

    definitely

  198. 198 A_T_G said at 11:39 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Okay, go Bears!

  207. 207 mc said at 11:42 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    So that was 1 combined sack by both teams the whole game?!

  208. 208 nicolajNN said at 11:43 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    That’s what happens when you have 2 o-lines this good

  209. 209 Arby1 said at 11:49 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Nice…

  210. 210 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:51 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    i dont know if that last goal line play where vick was tackled is going to go down as a sack or a tackle for loss (was it a loss??)
    i thought it was a pretty obvious running play that they were poorly trying to sell as a passing play.

  211. 211 lilmc said at 11:42 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Collinsworth is an Ass! Barden had Nmadi by the frickin head!!

  212. 212 Arby1 said at 11:49 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    and then tackled him!

  213. 213 Corry Henry said at 11:43 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    I’m encouraged by Vick’s performance tonight. Shockingly, the games where we have a good run pass balance, our offense runs smoother.

  214. 214 ceteris_paribus1776 said at 11:44 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    barden clearly grabbed Nnamdi first. wasn’t even close

  215. 215 T_S_O_P said at 11:45 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    It’s 4.42 in the a.m. and I as always I have trouble sleeping when the Eagles are playing. I just woke and turned on the iPad to see the final drive. Now how do I get back to sleep?

  216. 216 A_T_G said at 11:47 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Do you live with anyone? Surprise them with an amazing breakfast.

  217. 217 SteveH said at 11:45 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Andy Reid better get down on his knees and thank whatever god or gods he prays to because if Tynes had made that kick he would have been roasted like a hog on a spit this week.
    That win felt dirty, the officials jobbed us twice, then Andy with the time out. Somehow even though we won I still have a bitter taste in my mouth.

  218. 218 Arby1 said at 11:50 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Get used to the new normal.

  219. 219 DarthBanner said at 11:48 PM on September 30th, 2012:

  220. 220 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:49 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    3 wins, 4 points.

    what is our overall points differential? -14?

  221. 221 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:49 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    so who else is too hyped up to have any hopes of sleeping tonight?

  222. 222 Kanin Faan said at 11:52 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    sleeping? it’s 6 in the morning on this side of the planet. Ive already missed out on sleep. The win makes it totally worth it. 😀

  223. 223 TheRogerPodacter said at 12:00 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    damn dude! lotsa respect for you staying up for this one! and yea, the win must make it all worth it in the end. hope you dont have work tomorrow!!!

  224. 224 Thorin McGee said at 12:09 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    I’ve been there: I lived in Holland for a year, and I used to stay up to listen to the radio broadcast of the games on the Internet (back when that was free). Totally worth it.

  225. 225 Kanin Faan said at 11:49 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    Whoever called the game in the 2nd half can keep the job and Marty’s keys to the team facilities.

    First quarter of the season is over and we are 3 and 1. Enjoy the win eagles nation. Looking forward to a first quarter report card from tommy and jimmy on the next podcast. Good night!

  228. 228 BC1968 said at 11:51 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    How big is that last pass interference? WOWOWOWOW

  229. 229 DamonL86 said at 11:51 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    i am stunned this team is gonna give me heart failure

  230. 230 TheRogerPodacter said at 11:54 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    tommy, i look forward to your thoughts on the last drive that we had on offense. do you just try to run out the clock and take the short fg? do you try for the TD on each down or run out the clock on 1st and 2nd and then try for the TD on third?

    regarding the 3rd down play…. what do you think was the call there? to me, it looked like it was a running play designed to go out to the right to run out as much of the clock as possible and take a short loss or no gain. do you think they were really looking to score a TD on that play?
    extra question – if vick rolled out to that side and saw an open lane for a TD, would he or should he have taken a shot?

  231. 231 Corry Henry said at 11:58 PM on September 30th, 2012:

    The best thing is that we won the game on a night where the team was honoring one of the all time greats in the city of Philadelphia.

  232. 232 Ark87 said at 12:00 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    I’m a big Andy Reid supporter but….he was almost a murdered tonight…that second field goal looks perfect from the camera angle, and I almost died in a fit of rage/depression. I had half the manifesto written out in my head for why Andy Reid needs to go by the time that second kick fell a hair short, then I was O.K.

  233. 233 TheRogerPodacter said at 12:09 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    it was short by what, like 2 feet? sheesh…..

  234. 234 BG said at 12:09 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    On to Boardwalk Empire, Dexter and Homeland! Great win 😀

  235. 235 A_T_G said at 12:16 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    Looking back at that last drive, how many shots did the Giants have to advance the ball around the the two PI calls? 11? And only the officials could gain any progress. The defense stepped up, and overcame the heartbreaking calls that could have crushed their spirit. I don’t think we win that game last year.

  236. 236 A_T_G said at 12:19 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    We won the turnovers, the penalties, and the time of possession, we didn’t have a single sack. Strange.

  237. 237 Liam Henry Garrett said at 12:27 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    This isn’t aimed at anyone in particular, and this page is way better than other pages, but if you don’t agree with icing the kicker, or doing it right before the snap, that’s fine. Just don’t criticize Andy Reid because Tynes missed the first kick. Andy Reid is not a psychic. That’s just the risk inherent in that tactic, and it’s a tactic that has become standard. Be reasonable.

  238. 238 Liam Henry Garrett said at 12:33 AM on October 1st, 2012:

    Watching Spadaro and Trotter acting appalled by all the Negadelphians calling into PE.com and complaining about our victory is priceless. Just rejoice, Philly.
