    Mr. Fitzgerald v. Sheldon Brown

    We're bopth biased. I would like to think I see non-calls on my own team just as clearly as the opposite but I'm sure I don't. Ask my wife, though - I am very critical and point out non-calls that go my way just as often as I get mad when I see non-called facemasks on Westbrook. Not sure if...

    Mr. Fitzgerald v. Sheldon Brown

    I am. you asked, I'm giving you my take. The Eagles got screwed on more calls than the Cards, hands down. But even just one day after the game I'm not claiming it was a difference maker. If I needed to go back to my Tivo and watch it I'm sure I would find 2/3 of the worst calls going against...

    Mr. Fitzgerald v. Sheldon Brown

    Sigh. That was an odd call, but in the long run it was utterly insignifigant. The replay clearly shows that that the Eagle touched the ball while out of bounds, killing the play.

    Mr. Fitzgerald v. Sheldon Brown

    Sure. But Brown stuck with him better than most would have. I like Sheldon Brown a lot more than overrated soft Samuel or a benched Sheppard. The Eagles play the Giants twice a year. Plaxico Burress murders Philly on that play all the time and Fitz > Plax any day of the week. Even if it was...

    Mr. Fitzgerald v. Sheldon Brown

    100% pass interference. It should have been called without a doubt. I've seen the slow-mo replay and I don't see how any real fan of the game can say differently. But there were worse non-calls in the game that killed the Eagles on 3rd downs. And even worse non-calls in the regular season...

    Picking on Hood

    For what it's worth, I loved Rod Hood as an Eagle. Was disappointed to see him go. The guy is a solid player who doesn't get the credit he deserves.

    Shout out on D McNabb

    Maybe. But trust me, it does absolutely nothing for McNabb's legacy unless he wins a SB. Not fun at all. And this was the season where the Eagles deserved it the least.

    Shout out on D McNabb

    Unfortunately, they have. Curtis was like a 3rd option at WR in the offseason at best. They just didn't try hard enough for the others. Curtis only saw this much playing time because Reggie Brown, the big draft pick star, fell off the map entirely in 2008. Which is a good thing, if I'm being...

    Mr. Fitzgerald v. Sheldon Brown

    Hah. Fitzgerald didn't need to fake. That was a TD from the snap when the Eagles put only one DB on him. I was shocked that Brown even stayed with him for the first few fakes. Fitzgerald had a 5" advantage in height, before leaping, on every Eagles CB on the roster. Toss it high - free TD.

    Shout out on D McNabb

    This pretty much nails it. The casual fan might watch three or four games and yell at McNabb. For me I've always liked the guy. He DOES drive us crazy with his low passes and late passes. He also drove us nuts that halfway through his career he decided, just DECIDED, that he doesn't want...

    The truth about the Eagles

    For my part, it's been a great postseason. Watching two games go our way in the early game that Sunday was unbelivable. The RAIDERS won for us. Then I was treated to an absolute massacre of the Cowboys. Then a nice Vikings win. Then a HUGE win over the Giants after the Eagles were pretty...

    Crowd control

    It was one of the oddball calls, for sure. I'm sure the refs will get an earful at their review meeting. They need to trim down that list of nonreviewable calls even more. At least we didn't get one like last week where the refs let a team snap the ball and run an entire play to its close...

    Sims is an idiot

    Sketchy at best, dirty at worst. I think the intention was to tap with the shoulder as a "clean hit" then drive forward with a head butt. It just happened that Willis ducked a little first and sped it all up.

    Crowd control

    Read that link. If it was a live ball and was challenged, they would have ruled that the ball hit the Eagle while the player was out of bounds. Thus, Eagle ball at the 40. It was a confusing series of events for sure, but the Cards actually came out on top with the play being ruled dead. No...

    The truth about the Eagles

    The playoffs? Probably not. There is always going to be a weak division in each conference given the math of wins and losses. I don't think you would disagree with the general opinion that the NFC West has been a weaker conference than the NFC East over the last few years. But someone has to...

    I am such an a-hole right now!

    Decent of ya. People looking for fights usually find them - especially being an idiot in an away stadium.

    Congratulations!

    Whatever man - you hate all other fans of all stripes. You decided on my "intention" before I got here. I found a Cardinals forum to see what the team was like from real fans. Learn what's really going on with Spach out. See what players you guys love and hate - the Eagles fans have plenty...

    The truth about the Eagles

    Nope. It was very loud. Said it here several times already. I also said it didn't matter much to the actual game on the Eagles side. Equal false starts on both sides. The cards just ran better plays, hands down. No clue why JJ went with single coverage on Fitz so many times either - that's...

    I am such an a-hole right now!

    Just pointing out that tired "They booed McNabb at draft day" cliche. If using it is part of having your day, then by all means have your day. We throw batteries too.

    Congratulations!

    Funny how the few angriest folks on any forum, right after a win, are the fastest to call the other guys jerks for not being as classy as themselves. Thanks O. For setting us straight, I guess. Other than that (and the obvious outcome tonight for my team), it's been an interesting week to get...

    I am such an a-hole right now!

    Gotta love how 30 drunken Philly fans stupid enough to pay for tickets to the NFL draft somehow still are brought up to represent a city and a fanbase ten years later.

    So Eagles fans?

    Thanks. You guys have a good fanbase. Good luck in two weeks.

    That solves everything. I guess I'm wrong. Thank you.
