Are we also going to call it lucky that it starting raining so that no one can track down Vick in the backfield?

I mean, I think we should. The Eagles are both the better -- and the more fortunate -- team tonight.

Well, no, but I wouldn't expect you to be able to handle a concept as abstract as fortune. So I guess what I'm saying might be a little bit pie-in-the-sky for some.

Tripp this has to be one of the crazist things I've ever heard you say. If anything the rain helps the SLOWER team. Not the faster one. Rain had NOTHING to do with the beatdown last night.

A slick field definitely benefits Vick. He's tough enough to track down on a dry surface, put him on a slick field where defenders are slipping and can't react quickly enough, advantage Vick.

Totally 100% disagree. Besides, he wasn't just running on us, he was beating us from the pocket with pin point passes. Plus he hasn't thrown a single pick all year our while McNabb has 11. Sorry but this trade looks like dog shit right now.

Not saying it would have mattered either way, but generally speaking a sloppy field will benefit players on offense as they at least know where they're going, defenders have to react accordingly and a sloppy field hurts them more.

I don't, in any way, think the field conditions had any effect on slow or fast. I think it was an offense vs. defense issue.

The Eagles weren't any slower on the slick surface than they would have been on a dry one. It wasn't about speed. They were going to control that advantage no matter what.

Glad to see you say that.You usually have insightful post and your breakdowns are superb.I guess your post about the rain was lost on me in the translation

It wasn't raining, it was Jack Kent Cooke and Sean Taylor crying from above about this joke of a franchise that Snyder has allowed the Skins to become.
