Are you Ready for some Football - Week 16

[Chris 62]

You wrote it on wishful thinking Imran.

The Eagles played ONE team with a winning Record since McNabb went down, the 49ers, who didn't show up for the game, and they played on emotion, as it was his first game out.

They played a string of patsies (just like the Giants), so don't hand that game to the Eagles just yet.
And don't forget, the Giants lost Hillard to a cheap shot from an Eagle, THEY haven't forgotten.

As for Fassel, it's an old story.
Whatever he does now will wizz from his mind come next year, his team will struggle to win till he opens up, and then fight for the playoffs, this has been Fassel for 6 years now.

They played a game on emotion because their starter was out? Explain to me how much emotion the Buccanears showed when Brad Johnson was out last week.

I don't buy that argument. I've seen their defense all year, and they are the real deal. A.J. Feely has been a good suprise too. Just don't turn it over... kind of like Dilfer in Baltimore in 2000.

In case it hasn't been posted (I havne't read the first 4 pages of this thread)

San Diego has picked up Deion Sanders and placed him on the injured/retired list. This blocks Oakland from picking him up.

Other teams tried to claim him too. All AFC teams. No suprise there.

[Dis]

And I actually think Philadelphia will lose thier playoff game when Donavan McNabb comes back. I like him. But I don't think he has been that sharp this year.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Dissident:

McNabb has only completed 58% of his passes this year with 17 TDs and 6 INTs with 460 yards rushing and 2289 yards passing in only 385 attempts.

These numbers are better than his career average.

How much more sharp do you want him to be?

[Dis]

They lost some games early in the season which I think they shouldn't have lost. True the defense was at fault, but I still think they could have put up more points.

Indianapolis is the game I really had a problem with. Indy defense is not that good. True they were ranked #5. But last week showed how weak their defense truelly is.

nice win over the Bucs though. That does show some character. But losing Jacksonville and Indy

[Imran Siddiqui]

They lost some games early in the season which I think they shouldn't have lost.

They lost THREE GAMES all year! Unless you are the 1972 Dolphins, you can't win them all.

Furthermore, the Eagles have NEVER been about scoring a lot of points (though they did on some occasions). They are usually ball control and defense, and that is what McNabb has done most of his career.

[SlowwHand]

Indy's defense much better than last year.

Come on, DALLAS! Lose that last game. Improve that draft position.
Chicago will be picking before Dallas though.

[Joseph]

Raiders, if they win Sat., they will have home field through out.

[Dis]

Anybody see that female kicker yesterday (college football)?

of course she missed. I can't see having female kickers. Sorry, but missing an extra point is not good. They need to at least hit 40 yarders.

[monolith94]

Hey Imran, you told me the Rams would sweep away the Pats at last year's superbowl… who was laughing then?
That said, this is kind of sad… I wish the pats would get their act together!!!

Yes, and she looked kinda cute, too.

Just what the sport needs, the hot chicks of the NCAA!

[rah]

Yeah, how embarassing to be the first female in that NCAA class, and miss a stinking extra point. Not what I would call successful.
