Eagles are playing thugish classless ball.

 

[BlackLantern]

Will Demps is a dumba$$ for that....Philly is just getting frustrated now....

 

[StorminNorman]

I really hope Arizona can put the nail in the coffin by scoring before the half.

That play combined with DeShaun Jackson being on the sidelines with his head down in defeat indicate that the Eagles are no longer mentally in this game.

Give a lot of credit to Warner and the Cardinals defense. Their defense may be making mistakes, but they are holding when it counts. And Warner...he is showing tremendous composure in light of this Philly defense.

Not taking anything away from the Cards they are playing a very good game, but look at how the Iggles are playing in this game and compare to last week..definatly not the same team..it looks like they prepared for a different team, and now that they are down and getting beat they are playing like thugs out there.

What are the odds that, if Arizona chooses to pass, Fitzgerald is wide ass open?

edit: Not Fitz, but still a 1st.

 

[The Game]

Stop blitzing!!!!!!!

It is, as I believe Norman, said would happen. The Eagles are buying into their own hype. The expected to go into University of Phoenix stadium, play the same Cardinals they played in November and rip Arizona apart. They were wrong.

Its also possibile that the fact that this Arizona team is playing significantly better football than either Minnesota or New York.

So, between this week and last how many teams are now wishing they interviewed Todd Haley?

 

[The Game]

Hey a blitz finally worked

It's getting ridiculous how people keep refusing to give the Cards credit.

 

[Double Down]

24-6. I'll take it.

 

[BlackLantern]

even the kicker looks good....49 yarder....I wonder what Andy Reid will have to say during halftime

Actually, it's pretty simple:

Philadelphia's offense is extremely limited. They have no one to throw to that truly threatens a defense. None of their midget receivers scare the Cardinals, and Westbrook can only do but so much.

On the other hand, the Cardinals have the single most dominant offensive weapon in the playoffs in Fitzgerald, and a quarterback whose been here before. Not to mention, they're playing at home.

The Eagles are playing as well as they possibly can. They're simply playing a better team.

Your right they are a bad team and don't deserve to be here...What I said has nothing to do with how the Cards are playing...I said that the Iggles are not playing they way they did last week, and that it looks like they didn't game plan for the Cards...so since I am talking about how bad the Iggles are playing, thats not giving credit to the Cards??

I don't have to give them credit..I believe they have proved themselves on how they have played in the playoffs so far.

 

[FaT_tONle]

All week long all we hear about is the Jim Johnson defense... it has been a joke thus far... and the Eagles appear on their way to their third blowout loss in the fifth time in the Championship... who would have scripted it?

 

[Cmill216]

I said that the Iggles are not playing they way they did last week

You can only play as well as your opponent allows you to.

 

[Double Down]

Well said.

Dolphins WANT Larry!!!

 

[Caped Crusader]

I'm enjoying this.

 

[Caped Crusader]

Arizona ball!!

 

[Double Down]

That was huge.

 

[BlackLantern]

McNabb had some Chunky Soup on his hands from halftime....makes the ball slippery....
