Dallas or Philly?

McNabb's tough and I don't see him going down.

But even if he does, don't you remember when Koy Detmer came in and lit it up a couple years ago in relief of McNabb? Of course he got hurt pretty quick and AJ Feely took over, but Koy has been in that system for ages, he can run it.

The Eagles do this every single year. They go like 2-2 in their first few games, Reid has lost 5 out of 7 games in week 1. But then they always, ALWAYS go on a friggin tear. I think anyone who thinks they won't do that is getting a little too caught up in the results from the first 4 weeks. And just like those who said TO and McNabb couldn't work on the field together after all the drama, those who say McNabb can't stay on the field all year long are being very shortsighted.

True the Eagles get on a run, but I think they are getting figured out by other teams. You can't stay on top forever and when the Eagles got beat by the Pats who really exposed their Pass first, second and third philosophy, other teams began to scheme the Eagles that way. After Dallas, they get a Bye then play SD and @Wash and @Denver. That could very concievable be a two or three loss span for them.

I'd prefer to think that they are showing their mortality, Patriots-style.

Healing eh? Oh well. I never hope for injury, and I'm not going to. I'm just shocked I guess, that the presence of McNabb can make people like Lewis become all stars. I know TO makes most of the catches, but DAMN.

I wish they both could loose, but since that's not possible as much as I don't like the Cowboys I would like to see them pull a miracle as that's what it would take. We need Philly to loose as much as possible because they have a much better chance at the Division than does Dallas because they have a few more losses in store anyway. I'm rooting for us to take the NFC East so we need to lay those losses on Philly.

Could a tie help it any? Course that sorta counts as a win both ways, doesn't it?

Philly is getting shredded, no D at all

This game was almost satanic having to cheer for one of our rivals.......

the Eagles looked pitiful......couldn't pass, couldn't run, defense looked pathetic too......they left the NFC East wide open

the Cowboys were amusing as usual, Keyshawn squacked at Bledsoe when the team was annihilating the Eagles 30 to 10..........

I would of liked two more TDs. That Drop from Glenn hurt.

I think the Eagles are succeptible to huge collapses. I think they might start becoming very similar to another feathered team: the Seahawks. Lots of injuries, off-and-on offense...
