That was one hell of a game. Dawkins is still a monster.

sweetness34 · 12-17-2006, 07:03 PM

I believe I said Philly would make the playoffs even with Garcia, things are looking good.

And you doubted me Dillen.

Now that we're in the playoff hunt, Dawkins has turned on the A game. I love Dawkins.

To be fair, no one could guess that Garcia would play this good.

I did, which is why I picked them to make the playoffs, even without McNabb, well ok not this good.

Great win guys.

Don't have the time to give all my thoughts but to sum it up, you guys ran the ball well and stopped the run well....go figure.

The way the NFC has shaped up this season, maybe we'll see each other again.

He truly is the best in the business, noone plays with more heart and intensity. He is always around the ball looking to make a play. He is and has been my favorite Eagle for years, and its because of days like today.

So why is Trotter in your sig man?

Garcia has been playing well but in my eyes it came down to Jim Johnson and Tim Lewis. Jim being one of the best if not the best D coordinator in the game. And Tim Lewis being a big bafoon. Apparently Johnson knows how to create pressure and Tim Lewis has never head of such a thing.

bigbluedefense · 12-18-2006, 12:31 PM

Congratulations on the win guys, well earned. It seems like both our teams did a great job of trying to throw the game away, and you guys made less mistakes.

Dawkins is still a beast, I said in TC he's the best FS in the game, and I still believe it.

And I told ya you would do a good job against our run. Familiarity is the ultimate score settler, and division rivals always play eachother tight because of it. Misdirection doesn't work against a team that plays against it twice a year for the past 10 years or so.

Eaglez.Fan · 12-18-2006, 03:49 PM

Good game overall, I'm still not sold on Garcia. But I never will be. Defense played great in the second half, alright in the 1st. Howard didn't do much. Trotter did pretty good and Gaither did fine aswell. Dawk was obviously huge. I was impressed but we still have a long way to go to look at a potential SuperBowl

He's my avy 8)
I just don't have a good sig of dawk

12-18-2006, 08:03 PM

GAITHER came up big, when dawk and trotter retire, hes gona be a good defensive leader

after watching that game we could use a big fast corner like jimmy williams, for PLAX

ps PLAX pushes off every time

HEY ROGER GOODALL plax pushes off every time

Ehh... Jim Johnson is certainly not the best defensive coordinator, but he did do pretty well in the Eagles Giants game. This season I haven't been too impressed with him actually.

Regardless of how well the D is doing, there needs to be some sort of change on the D for the Eagles. The run D is still is a concern. I believe the Giants had issues running due to all the injuries on their OLine. It wasn't all the Eagles. The D has played better of late, but there is a disconnect between the personnel and the scheme. I like most of the personnel, so I think the scheme needs tweaking.

cunningham06 · 12-19-2006, 03:22 PM

Eagles in Pro Bowl-
Shawn Andrews
Lito Sheppard
Brian Dawkins

I'm ecstatic that Dawkins made it. Westbrook had a pro bowl worthy season, he should have made it over Tiki. I'm a little surprised more of our offensive line didn't make it, Jamaal Jackson I thought was really good this year. A case could be made for Trent Cole as well, but overall I'm pleased. Another pro bowl berth strengthens Dawkins case for the HOF.

jblaze66 · 12-19-2006, 06:41 PM

Westbrook got snubbed because this is Tiki's last year simply put and here are the numbers to back it up:

Westbrook
1756 yards from scrimmage
287 touches
6.1 yards per touch
11 TDs

Barber
1786 yards from scrimmage
340 touches
5.3 yards per touch
2 TDs

Period. End of story.
Sianara Tiki! Hurry up and get to the broadcast studio so Westy can get some love.

bsaza2358 · 12-20-2006, 09:21 AM

Given Tiki's production and the fact that Jacobs vultured 7 goalline TD's from him, I can't fault him for getting in. Westbrook was in a no win situation. He has All Pro numbers, but he's in a division with 2 other All Pro's (S. Jackson and Gore), and a former all-pro with similar numbers. With Westbrook's injury issues of the past, I'm glad he's not going to Hawaii. Let these other guys get dinged up while BWest rests and recovers. Getting named to the game is nice, but I'd much rather have our stud RB resting.

Word TODAY'S MY BDAY WOOO CELEBRATING EAGLES STYLE!!!!

bsaza2358 · 12-22-2006, 09:13 AM

How exactly does one celebrate Eagles style? Perhaps you could elaborate, Cunningham?

bsaza2358 · 12-22-2006, 09:15 AM

Predictions for the game? I put money down on the Eagles to cover this weekend. I think they have a solid shot to win if the D performs well, so the 7 point spread was overly generous.

I think the Eagles will hang around and have a shot to win. Final score prediction: 26-24. Eagles will cover regardless.

I dunno I like the way we have been playing as of late, however I think its a tall task to go on the road 3 weeks in a row especially against all division rivals. I do think we have a good shot to pull this one out but it will be a hard fought game

Prediction: 20-17 Eagles

I definitely think they will cover, I am not going to say they will win so I don't want to jinx it, but I think at the least they will keep it close. Our defense has been really good lately, and if Garcia can keep this up we'll see. As long as he targets the man in safety coverage we should be alright.

diabsoule · 12-25-2006, 08:22 PM

Awesome game, guys! You helped us out a lot. But, congrats on the win. You are looking really good right now.
