Same ol' crap


I really don't have to write anything for this pathetic game, I've already written it all before. Terrible effort, idiotic game plan, horrible offensive balance, lots of drops, bad throws, defense blowing opportunities, etc. etc. etc. And the last play of the game was completely symbolic of the entire season. Reggie Brown catches it at the 1/2 yard line, time expires, Eagles lose. How many times have the Eagles needed 1 lousy yard to win a game this year? Also a bonus, if they had the timeout they blew earlier in the half, they could have had 1 more play. And the best part about this travesty? They still have a chance to make the playoffs so we can suffer 1 more week.

Other notes:
  • Here is my list of people that lost this game in order of responsibility:
    1. Andy Reid - 2 starting receivers are out, wind is blowing furiously, it's December, so lets pass 50+ times to 15 runs.
    2. DeSean Jackson - killer drop in the endzone of McNabb's best pass of the season.
    3. Asante Samuels - killer drop on an easy interception because he was probably thinking of his TD celebration instead of catching it first.
    4. McNabb for fumbling the ball because as usual he held it too long and was oblivious to backside pressure.
    5. LJ Smith - bad drops and a killer missed block that could have gotten Westbrook into the endzone or at least the first down.
    6. Idiot Andy Reid, because he passes every play in the 4th quarter but then brilliantly decides to run the shotgun draw at the time in the game where the clock is completely against them. How did that work out?
  • Although the defense held Washington to only 10 points, they didn't make any plays and constantly gave up third and longs and surrendered field position.
  • Washington's punter, whoever he is, was the player of the game.
  • Can you believe the Eagles had their destiny in their hands and then blew it?
  • Eagles don't deserve to be in the playoffs.
At least Dallass still sucks.
