will we ever win?

What a sad pathetic joke the Eagles are, Reid is worse

Eagles can't score a touchdown with a first down on the 3, can't score a touchdown AGAIN with a first down on the 2 that included 3 chances from the inch line, and then that idiot Reid, with a terrible call for the ages, thinks it's a good idea to go for it on fourth and 1 at the Giants' 43. Who in the world thought the Eagles were going to convert? Only the moronic Eagles braintrust. From that point on the loss was ensured. (Before that it was just very likely.) Giants took that handwrapped gift from Reid and went down the field and scored the go ahead touchdown with ease. The defense then also surrendered another TD for good measure to match their 4th quarter awfulness from last week.

This game also featured some of the worst tackling ever, idiotic mistakes the entire game especially to end the first half, a somnambulant offense and defense to start the game, a home crowd that was just as sleepy, and a coaching staff that was outcoached from beginning to end. So a Giants team that had a short week, was on the road and decimated with injuries on every side of the ball walked out of Philadelphia with a 29-16 win despite the Eagles having 11 more first downs, 42 more total yards, 52 more rushing yards and a better third down conversion rate.

Eagles are simply pathetic.

Other notes

• McCoy had a great game.
• Vick gets hit almost every play. He's not lasting many more games. He also looked out of it. I wonder why?
• Steve Smith had the turnover that started the Giants collapse last year. His inability to catch a ball right in his hands to convert on 3rd down at the 10, and instead pop it up in the air for an easy interception set the tone for the Eagles for the rest of the game.
• Safeties suck.
• Matthews was moved out of the middle and closer to where he should be - the bench.
• Giants played smart and targeted the biggest chumps on the defense in the first half - Page, Matthews and Coleman. They hit on the last 2 for long touchdowns.
• The performance by the Eagles deserved to be heartily booed several times during the game, but the crowd was so asleep they couldn't even do that.
• The offensive line false starts were worse at home than on the road in domes.
• The pass rush was weak this week. Trent Cole is still the best player on defense.
• How is this defense so inept?
• Defense got no turnovers.
• It's a sad day when Asante is the biggest hitter and best tackler in the secondary. He even hurt the Giants tightend.
• If the Eagles were an actual contender, they would have had 31 points by the third quarter instead of 16.
• Another game, another missing-in-action Jackson.
• I seem to remember hearing something this week about the Giants faking injury because they were so exhausted by a no-huddle offense. Maybe I imagined that...
