Howie brought up the rest factor. Thinks it might come into play later in the game.
I say BS. This is the playoffs.
But considine is killing me…along with our complete lack of field position and penalties in the first half.
6 penalties in the first half
not in the playoffs my friend. Will not fly.
I feel good...
…About our defense and the way our offense is getting rolling.
I feel bad about the officiating- YOU CANNOT CALL AN INTENTIONAL GROUNDING IN THAT SITUATION (AWARDING POINTS AND A CHANGE OF POSESSION) UNLESS YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT THE TRAJECTORY OF THE THROW WAS NOT ALTERED BY CONTACT WITH THE BODY OR THROWING ARM!!
I’m just saying- that was BULLSHIT
LJ's playing for his next team
Doubt the Eagles will keep him.
I think that if we can score any points on this first drive and also eat maybe 5-7 minutes, then that’ll really help to put us in front deep.
word
we can beat this team. keep hammering the ball, and converting third downs.
World F#$king Champions
Keep Jacobs on the ground
and eli too!
Make them beat us from shotgun
you were right, yesterday, Ajay
The Cards really looked impressive. I just have a hard time thinking they’re for real.
When did AZ go from pretender to contender?
Their Defense is either dominant or nonexistent. Nothing in the middle.
nice return!!!

How great is it to have a return threat!
that may be the difference for us this year.
Shit...
Hope Curtis didn’t hurt himself on that tackle
can i start the get rid of mcnabb banter?

so you have no sense of humor?
every time that happens the banter starts chill out

Derrick Ward says...
You can catch it on the first bounce, right?
Ok
They started out with FGs in both the first and second half; we responded once and we’ll do it again.
I'm going to become an alcoholic
because of the Eagles.
That was a fluke INT
not really his fault- if we can get a drive going now the momentum can change fast. (We got 7 out of our INT) Good job D keeping it to 3.
I picked the wrong week
to give up hookers and blow.
11-10 what a score
I just feel guilty wasting that beautiful return by demps…thats worse than the field goal in a game of field position…

CELEK!!!!
playoffs man PLAYOFFS! Want to take it to the next level….do it NOW
I signed on specifically
to share the Considine Count with some people who care (and clearly already know what it is)
2 positive plays
1 negative play
that HAS to be some kind of record.
Definitely pleased to be at 11-10 while largely being outplayed.
Wow, what a conversion

3rd and 20 conversion?
Nice!

Kevin Curtis = Fail

Curtis
Gotta have that on a day when the offense is doing nada
(and it’s because the Giants are kicking our asses, not cause we flat out suck)
All these injuries
and penalties.
My blood pressure.
Will Jackson be back?
They just need one player besides westbrook that can command a double team
it can be wr or TE but they NEED one
by yourmomsacowboysfan on Jan 11, 2009 3:07 PM EST reply actions
This is going to be a game of attrition
Who’s left standing will win.
Every play
it seems like someone goes off the field. From the start, you knew it would be like this though. The intensity was palpable from minute one. Guys are tripping and slapping each other all over the place when you watch closely — and that’s just what we can see on the tv screen.
damn good question
he’s overdue for a big game appearance
another
3rd and long conversion
this game is turning into the december game: long sustained drives and big conversions.
World F#$king Champions
Donovan is doing it again
all by himself without any receivers… who would have thought?
Give Reid's boys a weekend pass
And let em on the field.
Is Winston Justice still in?
I can’t see…only hear.
or who's offense can stay on the field longer
by yourmomsacowboysfan on Jan 11, 2009 3:13 PM EST reply actions
usually the one that can run the ball
or have a little donovan magic!
After today's Bataan Death March
Whoever survives might be easy pickings for the Cardinals. What is wrong with the world?
I'm listening to YSP on the radio
while watching, but the delay is too annoying. However, it makes me feel like a real expert when Reese says everything after I’ve already said it :)
The delay depends on what kind of cable you have. HD, digital, regular, satellite, broadcast… all different amounts of delay. I believe YSP tries to synch with over the air broadcast TV, which has the least delay
Comcast cable
regular cable, and the delay is a few seconds. Interesting that they synch with over the air broadcast. I don’t think many people do the rabbit ears anymore.
Thank you Andy
for still running….we will feel the benefits soon when it matters.
You gotta love that guy
Akers has had his demons on this field, but today he looks solid
our sideline
looks nice and loose.
let’s keep this going, and control the ball
World F#$king Champions
O NO
dare i say it but i think considine may be going in!!!!!!
by yourmomsacowboysfan on Jan 11, 2009 3:16 PM EST reply actions
Anybody else lose the sound in HD?
Sound is fine in regular. but HD is completely off!
I bleed green and I piss silver and blue
Gotta say
If you’re a fan of a non-NFC East football team, you’ve got to think this game is great. What a slugfest.
why are they getting so much pressure on 5? is it because Westy is going out for passes? or is it that our TE’s are that dreadful at pass protection? either way, it’s gotta get solved. because we got nothin’ if they’re blasting donovan in the face on his pass release.
Won't happen with Samuel out
He’s the only DB who can catch.

The defense is looking very strong so far
takin down the big guys.
Sometimes it takes a small army
to bring down Jacobs.
I would love to see Jacobs fumble
hes been talking so much trash
by yourmomsacowboysfan on Jan 11, 2009 3:19 PM EST reply actions
exactly...
Jacobs size advantage is much less when he’s going sideline to sideline.

Yes, help Westbrook up
on every play. Keep goin’ baybee
keep
the cains moving. keep converting. keep making clutch plays.
let’s get to the fourth with a lead, and let eli pass

No way...
That was a legit call.

third down and “ooffhh, that much”
we got the wind
we got the momentum. finish the drive, AND PUT THESE FUCKERS AWAY
World F#$king Champions
2 yard for a 2 score lead.
Come one Eagles. Smart play calling here.
our defense
looks rested and ready. our offense is loose.
their d is tired, and the offense is starting to stagnate.
World F#$king Champions
well...this game is pretty much exactly what I expected.
An extremely physical defensive battle.

I think the announcers are disappointed that they don’t get to talk more about “earth wind and fire!”
Key to this game so far
3rd down conversions:
Eagles 7-11
Giants 2-10
I don't mind the Eagles getting compared with last year's Gnats...
I kinda like that comparison.
sit down TOM!
who are these guys working for???
They got a bad spot I think
But oh well. Too bad.
What happens if he loses the challenge?
I missed that
still 4th down
and they lose a TO

awful challenge
risk a time out in this game when we cant stop the run?
by yourmomsacowboysfan on Jan 11, 2009 3:43 PM EST reply actions
Odd decision
Even if they did get a bad spot, they’re only a few inches away and it puts a timeout at risk.
caughlin is just pissed
that the officials didn’t ask him before making the spot
coughlin got the benefit of the doubt on a bullshit challenge in the 1st game. let’s hope the pendulum swings back our way on this one.
That was God speaking
and the YSP guys are pretty funny to listen to, as the game goes on. For a game like this, unbiased coverage is not what I want.
A long and chewy drive is in order

man...Westbrook tried to juke when he should've just thrown a shoulder down.

good spot
D hasn’t let us down yet- bless those guys
anyone remember when. . . .
BWest was literally UNtackleable in those situations? is he pretty much done, or is he just banged up? i’ll be really upset if he’s totally past his prime.
I hope they take a look at Ward in the off-season.
by Tracer Bullet on Jan 11, 2009 3:53 PM EST up reply actions
I must say
we have them just where we want them. Giants are a running team…good at taking leads and holding them….they just do not have the explosive potential they did with burres. Just watch hickson.
weird pattern
their first run of all drives is long. then all subsequent get shorter
World F#$king Champions
uh oh....Ward is looking inspired.
I am the eggman...they are the eggman...I am the Mermaid...Goo Goo Gajoob!!!
Geez, that was a good run
Don’t know how he got through that minefield
COME ON DEFENSE
we need you now like we have all season
HUGE stop

Oh oh oh oh
Merrill Reese’s voice went up an octave as he said “it’s short”
This defense
is the best we’ve ever had in our city.
I said it. Now the offense needs to get on the field and have a nice SLOW drive.
i don't know...
the Reggie White era was pretty incredible.

part of me
says yes, thats the right thing to do.
then again, if we scored, the gmen need 3 posessions
World F#$king Champions
This is a beautiful.
This is turning into the greatest year of Philly sports ever.
I'm buying playoff tickets baby!
Anybody need a place to stay in AZ?
I bleed green and I piss silver and blue
Are there any Gnat fans left?
Or did they all go home crying?
HOLY SHIT!
THAT is why it is so important to stay committed to the run. ALLL DAY we have been waiting for that. PUT THESE NY A-HOLES AWAY!
Who said the Eagles fans are the worst???
Giants fans are leaving the stadium
Congrats
You guys came in and pushed around our Offense. While I can’t root for you guys, I do wish you good luck next round. Great Game by your Defense Again.
Lets take this one
for the whole division- the best in football.
Typical Offense
And our some old “can’t punch it in” offense comes back.
This game is HUGE for Akers
He’s had his problems here, and he came up big today.
I don't know...
that heated steering wheel sounds pretty awesome!

same as last game

World F#$king Champions
i'm surprised at the Giants fans..
Why are they giving up on their team? Hell – I respect them and am afraid they’ll come back with 2 tds. If any team could do it – it’s the Giants.
I’m stoked, but I can’t forget that Eli is the master of quick drives down the field in the last several minutes of the game.
suck it eli

The Old Eli
Remember Eli from before last year’s season? The one that threw lots of interceptions and almost got Caughlin fired? I think he’s back!
It runs in the family
Eli’s about as good as his brother under pressure

The last time we made it this far we went to the Superbowl.

The Eagles were “dead” Andy Reid was going to be fired, Donovan McNabb was going to be cut, the team was going to be completely overhauled.
And here they are going to the NFC Championship game.

Amazing. I would say you’ll kill the Cardinals, but twice I’ve said that and was wrong about the Cardinals.
My god…the Cardinals are playing the Eagles in the AFC title game…if the Chargers win then the world will explode.

The only "upset" i thought was likely a few days ago was Chargers beating Steelers.
I hope not of course, but this has been one crazy weekend.

Ravens really didn't shock me
This one did a bit, and the Cardinals did a LOT.
