I'm not terribly surprised. We're both pretty inconsistent teams. I could see a close game, Philly blowing out Washington, or Washington blowing out Philly. This is the kind of game that only gambling addicts bet on.

JC has good games v. Philly so far. This will be his third, he needs to have a breakout game w/our wr's.

The Philadelphia Eagles that were force fed to a gullible public as the greatest thing since unleaded gas are as dead as the dodo. Is there no one left to slurp McNabb? Forsaken by ESPN, he is.

Looking at the stats this could be another cliff hanger
We are 9th in Run while Philly is 7th in Run Defense
We are 26th in Pass while Philly is 21st in Pass Defense
Our strength is their strength and our weakness is their weakness
London Fletcher and Sean Taylor need to win this one against McNabb and Westbrook

What? Are you scared Washington won't cover?

Just a ploy by the oddmakers to get the masses betting on Washington

Point spreads are set to get as close to 50/50 money on either sides as possible.

The Skins haven't been very good at covering this year.

How can people argue here that it will take 10 wins to make the NFC playoffs and then discuss if the Eagles are dead or not.

The Eagles will not win 8 games this year; they may not win more than 6.

I said these types of threads come back to bite us so I guess we should fire CAMPBELL17 for starting this thread along with Gibbs, Snyder, the trainer, GW, Saunders, and the entire team.
