For a Giants perspective check out Big Blue View.
Did you know?
If Brian Dawkins intercepts a pass today, he will become the Eagles all time leader in that category?
Bottom line
There's not much anaylsis to be done about this game. We know the Giants, they know us. Every on earth already knows the Giants gameplan today and vice versa. Today is about desire. It's about execution. Beating a playoff team in the Cardinals last week was nice... but beating the Giants would be a signature win for this team and it's QB. McNabb hasn't beaten the Giants in 4 years! Granted, he missed several of those games to injury... but it's still a jarring statistic. I'm sure you are all as sick as I am of losing to the Giants.

So I'm bored and I found I was a member of here so
I’m gonna hang out here until the Niners game
That was pretty lucky right there. Either way, good stuff.
Kevin Curtis was WIDE OPEN and McNabb waited too long to throw it
Seattle, the world's worst sports city.
Just a little…ESP with total strangers

that blocking on the running play was disguisting
but something tells me the defense knew it was coming.
The Run D...
…is looking competent so far, but I hope I didn’t speak too early.
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
Wow...
That was a page out of the Andy playbook….need 8 yards, throw a 2 yard pass
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
You guys definitely need to score quickly
Need something to play for. Play to keep a seven point lead, otherwise the Eagles offense is looking uninspired thusfar.
The predictability of the Eagles is harming...
I am observing the Giants D-backs and linebackers moving up or back based on what coming.
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
I'm relatively pleased with the way this game has started...
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
Eagles get a 1st down on Andy Reid's trick play of B-West up the middle
Seattle, the world's worst sports city.
12 yard loss or 2 yard loss…..
Still crappy as hell

Yeah, he has a permanent position in Andy's doghouse...
…which is pretty big, might I add.

On a bright note
othere than the penalties the d is stepping up…
I love Q… He’s turning into a great player for the eagles
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
Why?
I dont think its been that bad today
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
why hasnt mcnabb gotten out of the pocket like that all year
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
Let me get this straight
This O-line is awful with the blitz.
Seattle, the world's worst sports city.
Cause LJ is the MAN
and dammit, he wants the BALL..not to do stupid blocking.

EXCEPT on special teams… he seems to do very well there

yes but we need to move the ball before we begin the Donovan Stagnate routine
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
Jackson hurt again. His little pussy act is starting to get old. That belongs on the soccer field. Not American Football.
That's an amazingly stupid comment Fuqua.
As for the soccer part….this tackle was real.
Seattle, the world's worst sports city.
yeah but with the O line what do u expect??
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
6 runs for 3 yards
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
by WanderingMoses on Dec 7, 2008 1:35 PM EST up reply actions
we need about 8 yards here so we can go for it
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
That’s what happens when the number tries to catch it instead of the hands
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
A thing of beauty
Someone other than an Eagle dropping a perfect pass
The timeout problem has reared its ugly head
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
Andy wants to be like Pete Carroll…maybe they should have worn Green.
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
have i mentioned yet how much i hate these announcers?
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
Refs are blowing the game
Moose is blowing Jacobs
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
Cops
There’s lots of cops at this game including Ralph Achors.
Our blitz is not affective against the Giants
Why do we keep doing it?
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
Guess Amani Toomer can stick to just killing the Redskins.
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
Does anyone ever listen to sounds of the game on WYSP? :)
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
can somone explain
why the 32 yard pass from Mcnabb to curtis was blown dead? He was touched BEFORE the ball got to him
we need to start rewarding the defense's great play
and let them get off the field for a few minutes
Andy’s BS strikes again!

No really
Wasn’t Westbrook the safety valve on that play? Or was he the first read? Cause I didn’t see Donovan look upfield at all.
Manning is throwing high...
…maybe that tutelage under Warner back in ’04 is paying off.
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!

As many as it will take for them to be considered on par with the Raiders

Agreed
D is playing great, but if they’re on the field all the time, they’ll tire by the 3rd Quarter

and Westbrook remains amazing
"This world extends way beyond this little field of dreams we're dancing in and I want to see that world"
Nice
He bounced off some tackles. I love watching guys twice his size trying to chase him down as he scores a TD
Seen it once or twice.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?
"This world extends way beyond this little field of dreams we're dancing in and I want to see that world"
Special teams coach needs to be shot for letting that happen twice in a season. You are doing something wrong if that happens twice in a decade, let alone twice in a season.
Shut the fuck up you fucking bigot, racist, homophobe. Go fucking kill yourself you miserable son of a bitch.
It is kinda the special teams coach’s job to make sure things like that don’t happen. It happened once, exactly the same way…so adjust and SEE TO IT that it doesn’t happen again. Might not be all his fault, but it is certainly his job to make sure that kind of thing doesn’t happen.
Has any team ever had this happen to them twice in the same year?
The monster at the end of this blog.
Because I think he is a bigot, a racist, and a homophobe. All you have to do is look at his track record for some of the things he has said on here. And I also happen to think he is a moron – but that is beside the point.
In case you haven’t noticed, I have been trying to ignore him on this thread but he has the one who has responded to all of my posts.
Can't we all just get along?
We’re all Eagle fans here.
Not quite sure we have the nicest bandwagon right now
"This world extends way beyond this little field of dreams we're dancing in and I want to see that world"
cmon
yes that could only happen to us.. and I cant believe that guy missed the tackle..
man the giants are so shitty, they need a break like that to make themselves seem good.
THE EAGLES GOT THIS SHIT
just keep the faith, guys. We’re giving a great effort up there in dirty Jersey!!
i just watched the replay
does anyone think andy could run down the sideline like tom coughlin just did??? hahahahaha
I think there are a lot of positive to see
The Birds have a decent mixed attack and have held the Giants O in check. The things that were a concern were the timeouts and the penalties. Both of which are coaching issues. AND…the biggest thing of all…the Scoreboard. As ajay said above, the Birds get the ball first.
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
love how the birds are sticking wih the run….what a dejavu (49ers) with the vlocked fg before the half
Goose alert
Let’s see if by the 3rd Quarter, he’s slurring his words. The one game I think he was bombed.
I like the way
Westbrook isn’t looking to break big runs every time; if he’s got a lot of peeps in front of him he just plows into it for 2 or 3 yards.
Quick Question
Does anyone else here agree that Avant is the only WR the Eagles have that has the balls to consistently go over the middle?
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
Oh wow
a short McNabb pass.
"This world extends way beyond this little field of dreams we're dancing in and I want to see that world"
u have to like this drive after the blocked FG
an Eagles fan should be an Eagles fan during an 0-16 season
Indeed
Not that I am a momentum guy, but it would do well to shut the Giants Stadium crowd up

Special teams hasn’t been the same for two years. Can we go and kidnap John Harbaugh and bring him back? LOL
not good to see jacobs hurt
the guy is a beast, want to see him play
It wouldn’t be a bad thing to draft a kicker in the later rounds and have a competition in training camp.
its not akers' fault
the line is supposed to give the kicker room, theyre playing like shit theyve cost us so many points
We could bring in Nick Novak

YOU SUCK!!!!! you should never WISH for an injury asshole …..we want to win yes ….but win with honor
Eli has like 35 yards
they need everything they can get from theri running game today
Not ready to give up on Akers,
but some competition wouldn’t hurt.
westy looks GOOD today
lets keep giving him the ball Andy… please…
I totally expect Andy
to blow it with play calling right about now…. please keep running
My wife just asked me when Andy’s Triplets were due.

Hard for him to run...
He keeps imagining the chains between his ankles.

it really feels like
they dont want it, but the giants are practically giving it on a silver platter
COLE for Pro-Bowl
He’s not flashy with the sack numbers, but his play is solid
Eli is 7 for 21
for 66 yards. Good thing he’s “elite” and Dono is washed up eh?
Silence is golden
Notice how quiet the Giant fans are?
That Hixon drop that would've been a TD was the real game changer
Seattle, the world's worst sports city.
smith
needs to protect that ball, or one of these is gonna be a fumble
I agree
Marty slipped the fat man some of his kid’s pills and took over
Marty: Andy look, 50 pizzas for free!!
Andy: Where?
(Marty swipes playbook)
Seattle, the world's worst sports city.
I think...
Marty hid the playbook from Andy in the form of a salad.
Florida 42, Oklahoma 38. Percy Harvin runs in the winning TD with a minute to go.

Makes you wonder
Where was this team all year? Just think of where they could have been if they used this balanced of an attack all year long…
Just like ’06 and ’07. Reid has to be desperate before he gets smart.

Kyle Eckel
Where is he? He should be running the ball more late in games like this. He’s a good power runner and can save an unnecessary Westbrook injury.
Hate to be a party pooper,
But you can’t take a sucky team like Cleveland for granted after a big win like this….
This could be the kind of game we blow and look like idiots.
Thank you Jesus….but I am afraid of a big kick-return, hence my thought of going for it
The Sports Wilderness - Sports With An Enemies List!
After a big win like this,
I don’t want to hear from the analysts of how the Giants were distracted with Plax and all that shit. Give the Eagles credit for playing a monster of a game.
They’ve already started making excuses for Eli, so it’s coming.
by Tracer Bullet on Dec 7, 2008 3:51 PM EST up reply actions
LOL
We’re safe. Now let’s not fuck up next week vs. Cleveland.
Congratulations on a great game by the Eagles.
Good game guys. You outplayed us on both sides of the ball. Nothing left to do today except hope Pittsburgh can play in the snow….
