If we can come back and score, even a FG, then we can take some of the wind out of their sails. It’ll pump us back up a little

Horrible

Hard to find anything positive to say right now.

Eagles are playing well and got something to play for. we don’t seem to be matching them in intensity.

Game over?

You guys are morons…its early in the 2nd quarter and 1 big play and you say the game is over? Lots of football left to be played…lots of swings of emotion and momentum still to come….if you think the game is over get off this board so we don’t have to read your stupid over-reactions

worse than losing to the Eagles is them getting into the playoffs!!!!!!!!

but it sure seems too perfect for the Eagles

The defense isn't going to stop every play for zero gain

Let’s be realistic here folks. The Eagles have a solid offense. Dallas is going to struggle at times.

by Urinal Mint on Dec 28, 2008 4:08 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

dude and not to mention, that PLAY that McNabb made for the big gain - i'd say at least half of the QB's in the league get

their butt sacked on that play….not only does he not get sacked, but he finds an open guy and gets the ball to him…we have to understand that Philly has a guy behind center with a lot of the same good qualities as our own QB…he sense the pressure coming, evade it, and make things happen

One of the top things I hate reading is...

“They are just wanting it more.”

Because you know what people are thinking or feeling? Like Tony Romo and the offensive line want to hear all year about how they were a colossal failure.

Get real. Sometimes and gasp the other team just gets beat.
