I am going to stick with my prediction from a few weeks ago.....8-8. Heres how I see it playing out...
Chicago...a win here gets Eagles fans excited again ! Mcnabb is riding high after passing for almost 400 yards against a corpse-like Bears defense. Record --6-4 !
Eagles come back home and promptly lose to the redskns the following week. Reid throws the ball 65 times and says after the game that "maybe we could have run the ball a little more" Record is 6-5.
.Onto Atlanta...Eagles bounce back with a close win over a injury depleted Atlanta team. 7-5. Eagles fans feeling good once again. 7-5...Winning the division is in sight !
The following week the Giants win a close one overe the Eagles. Eli Manning leads a 11 minute drive at the end of the game to seal it. ...Hakeem Nicks is slowly becomig the new Plaxico and a hobbled Sheldon cant cover him.
Record 7-6.
49ers come to town.....all will be well if they win this one...and they pull it out despite Vernon Davis scoring 3 td's and having 12 catches for 140 yards. 8-6 ! Playoffs here we come...
Denver rolls in...Standing ovation for Dawkins...the last time the home crowd cheers. Eagles lose 27-10. Dawkins plays like an animal knocking poor Jeremy Maclin out of the game early for daring to go over the middle. Dawkins finishes game with 12 tackles an int and a Lesean Mccoy fumble recovery. BGN server goes down because of all the angry eagles fans...Record: 8-7.
Last game of the Season....In Dallas... Eagles have a small chance at a wildcard but if they lose its over.
Romo has an awful game but the Cowboys run game decides it...they hold the ball for 39 minutes. Andy reid after getting down early passes the ball 38 straight times....Eagles lose the game 24-12. After the game Reid says "We just have to get after it next week and that's on me. Don't worry, we will get better." Les Bowen reminds Andy that this was the last game of the year. Reid stares ahead blankly for what seems like hours then ends the press conference.
Following the game the BGN server explodes...too many rabid Angry Eagle fans posting calling for Reid/Mcnabb/Luries head on a platter.
The entire summer is spent with fans wondering how they can lure Bill Cowher or Mike Shanahan out of retirement.
