Pretty sad. This only goes to show you how far the Eagles have fallen. Can you imagine a guy from the other team saying this about the eagles in the 90's when we had a killer D ?

If something like this doesnt make these make these guys play with fire I dont know what will. So far Ive seen Baldinger say the Eagles showed no effort half the time, Cullen jenkins saying the team was too happy at halftime, and now this. Man those guys better bring it hard on Sunday. I can accept a loss if everybody busts their ass and they still lose butcertainly not because of a lack of effort.

I know he's no Ed Reed

But I miss Q, he would have been better than Page or Coleman

I agree

Now we get to see if our boys respond with the kind of toughness that Philly is historically known for or we get to see if this team is as soft as they say they are.

You need

to have heart to get fired up. This team has no heart.

-short yardage
-red zone
-giving up in games

We should of known we were fucked when they were talking about a rookie bum LB(Matthews) as being a team leader.

Joe Banner is Evil Banners father. Kinda like Luke and Darth Vader.

Juan Castillo switching from the offensive line coach to Defensive coordinator is soooo dumb it might just work.

Our defense will not be a top 10 defense this year.

REMINDS ME EXACTLY OF 2009

Remember when the Giants blew out the Raiders so badly that Osi (or Tuck?) said “It felt like a scrimmage.” And that motivated the Raiders enough to throw the kitchen sink at the Eagles and give us one of the most demoralizing losses ever.

Yep, we can only hope Gore’s comment motivates our joke of a team.

If we get blown out or suffer another 4th quarter loss

Or just plain out have a terrible game against the Bills, then it will have become clear that this team quit on the coaches and changes have to be made.

To tell us the Eagles quit playing that game. We all watched the game. They played with no heart.

Well...we don't have any leaders?

We trade them away and then wonder why no one is stepping up. We need a hitter, like Dawk.

We are paying for letting need Brian Dawkins leave

Hugh Douglas even said it on ESPN, we need the leadership and the safety help.

by woody454 on Oct 7, 2011 11:50 PM EDT reply actions

AMEN! Name our leaders on D...

Cole? Out. Samuel? Won’t tackle. Matthews? Just kidding. Babin? Too worried about stats it seems. NA? Too soft spoken on the field.

We don’t have a game changer that risks it all making at hit. Coleman hits hard, but doesn’t wrap up. He has missed 2 HUGE tackles this year that costed us 2 TD’s. Maybe we need to simplify the defense and let Jarret off his leash. I want to see this kid hit someone so bad.

of all our guys on D i really see Babin and Cullen stepping up into the role

something tells me...

If we didnt let Dawkins go we may have had a superbowl in this town already…
The guy still plays at a pretty high level. Not as high as 5 years ago but leagues ahead of anyone else we replaced him with. Even now….at 37 or whatever . And his leadership cant be measured.

I'm glad I'm in Afghanistan

I get so emotionally invested in Philly teams that I don’t think I could take a Phillies knocked out in the first round and, an Eagles team starting 1-4.
