The Eagles five-game win streak and ascent to the top of the NFC East has been the talk of the city. The run for an NFC playoff spot has also gained the attention of the NFL television schedulers.
The Birds game on December 22nd against the Chicago Bears has been moved to Sunday night at 8:30pm on NBC. You’ll be able to see it locally on NBC10.
Last night the Bears humbled the Dallas Cowboys by a score of 45-28 in what turned into a shootout. Backup quarterback Josh McCown of the Bears threw four touchdown passes in the Chicago win over the Cowboys.
Now the Bears have a tough decision on their hands. Should they sit down McCown who has been red-hot as the team’s starting quarterback and put starter Jay Cutler back in there? Or should they keep Cutler on the bench and keep McCown in the starting spot?
Bears should roll with McCown. I think he has looked really good. How has he only been a backup his entire career? I get that he has some stud WRs in Chicago but the guy looks far better than Cutler ever has.
Cutler was force feeding Marshall too much. Jefferies is a terrific wide receiver that was obviously under used earlier this year
We get to properly thank the Bears for last night by smashing their teeth in on Prime Time. How nice!!
I’d leave McCown in until he loses (or longer if Cutler isn’t ready). I think Trestman was a good choice for head coach and once he has a healthy defense (next year), the Bears could be a potent team.
It will be a tough task for the Eagles secondary to defend Marshall and red hot Alshon Jeffery. Should be a high scoring game. Bears run D is weak. Mccoy should have a field day with those gapping holes
&*^%** That’s 1:30 am. Not a fan.
Now very worried about this Vikings game.
Coming off the “instant classic” big come from behind win in the snow. National media attention. Players tweeting like crazy….and now, in recognition of their improvement, the Bear’s game flexed to primetime, more national exposure etc etc.
Meanwhile, the lowly Vikes, without their star, in an easy win nestled in between.
This has got doughnut written all over it.
We’ll see what kind of coach Kelly is and if the Birds come out flat or not.
From my understanding the players havealready been talking about the Joe Webb game…hopefully we will go in level headed and ready to play. I think the leadership on this team will keep everything in perspective, starting with Kelly.
Brother it’s December in the nfl… The big boys are out play…for as shitty as the last two years have been we have been treated to very good December football. I think chip will be even better…. He is the real deal
Every week I’ve been nervous about who they were gonna face. That nervousness is diminishing. I am counting on a smash mouth performance by the Birds now and bet other teams are getting quite concerned.
Question…mthe cowgirls defense is the worst in history… Chip, nick et al are prolific are there really any worries?
With the NFC east sucking fumes ,the Birds have emerged and,risen above the dysfunctional redskins ,the giants have again put there coach in the crosshairs,and jerry jones fired Ryan at def coordinator and now has the worst defense in the nfl…as fragile as the division stands,and as young and aspiring the Eagles are this is the foundation upon which we can get even better ..the trenches on both sides of the ball have grown week by week ,the QB has answered question after question and with Dallas revenge on Nick Foles mind ,does anyone doubt what this offense can do to that defense ,sending the Dallas cobwebs into a long New Years ..the scientific sports approach has conditioned this team with fresh young legs …it’s exciting to have the number 3 seed in our own grasp.Of course there are 3huge games left ,and in each game ,we seemingly learn more and more about how focused this team has become .No letdown after a bye ,no heads hanging at halftime in the elements to a lions team ,all building blocks of substantive work by the whole organization ,nice job by all …we don’t have to do a better job,we are doing it just fine thanks..
I Hope Jay Cutler is playing for the Bears by
The time the Eagkes play them.. Cutler has had sulu chess versus the Eagles the last few times he’s played them under the AR regime
The a ears would be stupid for replacing McCown at QB with Cutler,
But we’ll see what happens , the focus needs to be on The Vikings and putting them away by the 3rd Quarter and getting some rest for Key Eagke Players
Would be Tge dream scenario..
Connor Barwin stated Monday that because of the snow and players not being able to “explode” and go full speed that his body was barely sore Monday. It was more of a pillow fight against Detroit.
That is what Shady said on his regular slot. He said that the big guys couldn’t hit him as hard and it felt like he was falling on pillows.
Paul, I enjoy reading your posts, but, I need you to spell check buddy!
Yes indeed Eagleshaslanded… Maybe Santa will drop one off for me…
Normally I am not too bad on the keyboard, but on the I-Phone, I am terrible.. I will attempt to do better and take my time in spelling
I’ve already cracked Paulman’s secrete code using an Enigma machine.
after hours of deciphering i concluded this is his secrete message:
—- Be sure to drink your Ovaltine —
It’s “Secret” .. Ha Ha
It probably would help for my spelling, if I didn’t drink as many “Stella’s” either, but that’s another story for another day..
opps, I do the same thing with desert and dessert – one letter makes a big difference LOL
Is there even an artgument here? You play the QBthat has the hot hand, stayed healthy, and is playing well. End Of Story!!!!!!
PRIMETIME
This is when stars separate themselves from the rest of the pack.
If Nick Foles have a monster game on Prime Time in route to a playoff birth, he’ll receive a serious contract extension, but if he lay an egg at home against the Bears that will do the reverse and bring in to question his heart in big games.
Remember that Cowboys game against an atrocious Cowboys defense without their best player Demarcus Russell?
He out right choked and the games coming will tell us if it was an apparition starting with the Prime Time game against Chicago.
This team and city will embrace If Nick Foles wholeheartedly if he win convincingly against the Bears and redeem himself in Dallas the last game before leading the Eagles into the Playoffs with wind behind his sails.
But first………
Don’t overlook the Vikings!!!!!!!!
They can play the spoiler.
It’s does feel good to be relevant in December though.
GO EAGLES!
“This team and city will embrace If Nick Foles wholeheartedly if he win convincingly against the Bears and redeem himself in Dallas the last game before leading the Eagles into the Playoffs with wind behind his sails.”
Do you live in Uzbekistan?
probably just depressed his boy rg3 got benched!
The City and Fans have already embraced Nick Foles (Well 90% of them anyways) He doesn’t need to be Superman, just play his game, run the Offense, keep moving the Chains, Score TD’s and Protect the Ball.. Basically keep playing like he and the entire OFfense has been and he and more importantly, the Team will be in Great Shape for the Playoffs
Exactly!!! First Vick, now RGIII, Songs, you bring bad luck to your guys, please, never root for Foles!
Only a fraud of an Eagles fan would continue to talk about the Dallas game, given the current 5 game win streak and the Player of the Month honors the QB has won. Pure LOSER…FruadSongs.
Go and support your Redskins, they need you more than the Eagles need your phoney-ass.
Dallas game!!
Fuck, Songs is hurting. His hero on the bench, his second hero moving to the bench…..low drafted white guys moving into their spots.
He can’t go to Kap, because he’s not having a good year either….Wilson? I can’t see Songs throwing his full support in that direction…….Newton it is I suppose…
If Cousins plays well, Song’s head is going to explode.
Songs, an apparition is a ghost..do you mean an anamoly?
I think most of the city and the teamhas moved on from the Dallas game, which evidently was an anamoly because he’s won 5 straight since then with the Cards, and Detroit in adverse conditions being huge games. Those who still want to hold these personal benchmarks for Nick Foles to achieve, well they’re not interested in Foles being the QB anyway.
As I stated, it appears the city, the team and sports illustrated has embraced Foles…Only die hard MV7 supporters still grope like a blind man in the dark looking for something to hold on to as they wait for their savior’s return. LOL, not gonna happen! You and a few others still struggle with this…it’s ok, Foles and the Eagles will continue to move forward as you and othersare mired in the paralysis of analysis and thinking of sill benchmarks of achievement for him to hurdle.
Go Foles, Go Eagles!!!
Funny how each week the MV fans will move the bar on old Nick….if he beats a good defense……if he can beat a winning team……if he can beat Detroit…..every week they say that they will be convinced, and then the following week they continue to move the bar for another “test”.
Just admit that no matter what the guy does you will NEVER fully support him because you are a hater. You will never fully enjoy the success of this Eagles team because secretly you are rooting for Foles to fail so you can scream out that he is “ass” and sucks and that your hero should have never lost his job. Just admit it, because every the group of haters predict a new way that Foles will fail, only to be proven wrong by the actual game. The guy is a second year QB who is destined to make his share of mistakes, but constantly moving the bar each week only shows how desperate you are for him to fail and how the overall success of the team takes a backseat to seeing this player fail.
Reports from Los Angeles have Michael VIck appearing on “Dancin’ with the Stars” for Next Season… Details being worked out …
haaaaaaaaaaa thats good paulman. nice work
i meant aberration.
I don’t think that the offense is going to have problems scoring points for the rest of the season. Not Seattle defense that they are playing. All in the bottom when it comes to scoring and yards allowed. Will the defense continue to play at a high level making plays that they need to is the question? They should win against the Vikes, but they are going to have to score some points against the Bears, because I am not sure that they will be able to contain those monster WRs. 2nd time Cowboy game is going to be a lot different than the first.
fingers crossed

(Vick comes off the Bench after a Foles Injury and throws for 5 TD’s and 385 Yards in the 2nd Half to lead the greatest come from behind Victory in Super Bowl History
Another Unsung Hero is TE James Casey who finishes with 7 Catches & 145 yards and 3 TD’s all coming from Mike Vick
Owner Jeff Lurie, 2 Weeks later, announces the Sale of the Eagle Franchise to a Los Angeles Developer Group who will relocate the Eagles to Los Angeles for the 2017 Season
Very good SB outcome but, the ending didn’t sit too well. If they relocate, what sense would that make? Serious question.. This of course was a joke, but this issue was brought up before. What would Philly be like without a football team? An incomplete city..
nope still have not found your baseball Jon
What are you talking about MHitler?
GFY Paulman! Dont ever say the Eagles are moving to shit hole LA. Thats not even funny
I think the Vikes game could end up being close. The Eagles hve to avoid coming out flat after their big win, and before another big game the following week. Doughnut.
Soo much press right now. Soo much hype. “Game for the ages” SI covers. Player’s tweeting.
Suddenly its 13-13 at half vs the shitty Vikes. What? Shouldn’t they just wipe the floor with these gys??
Now, the birds should be able to pull away in the second half…..but this is an interesting coaching spot for Kelly.
We know that there were (under Reid) a few “press clipping” guys on the Eagles, and right now they’re getting their fill of press clippings (before they’ve really accomplished anything) so it’ll be interesting to see if he can keep them grounded.
I do like everything I hear from the on-field leader though. Nothing but humble pie. That kid is grounded. Bodes very well.
Matt Cassel named starter Ponder backup.
Nick Foles on Sports Illustrated cover…
I guess SI doesn’t have the high standards for success that Songs, and Theone1, and Skayne, and koolbreeze have. They put Foles on the cover before these guys agreed to accept him as an NFL starter.
Didn’t you know, Foles now has to win in Primetime in order to be considered acceptable.
Come in cold and roll vs division rival NYG? Not enough.
Win 5 str8 to overcome 1-3 start? – not enough
Set NFL td record? – not enough
Beat good Ariz D? – not enough
2 tds away from all-time record of tds sans int? – not enough
Overcome 2 td deficit and snowstorm to go 7-9 in second half? – not enough
MUST win in primetime….or else a nobody.
Man, have to give those guys credit for hanging on with what has to be (at this point) less than the nubs of well worn out fingertips.
i give tsjohnson credit, she just walked away after figuring she was wrong about foles and virtually everything else eagles related.
whats funny is i thought she was an eagles fan, why is she not here celebrating are recent success?
She is probably a he. Not a true fan..
Watching the RGIII and Shanahan press conferences this afternoon is great drama. I amazes me that Shanahan has had the level of success that he has, and manages people this poorly. The one good thing that we have in our favor is that there are very good chances that after Shanahan gets fired, that Snyder will screw up his next hire and the franchise will remain in tumoil for years to come.
Washington is so dysfunctional even a Vick can beat them
Why are you dudes still talking about Vick? I’m just curious who brought him into this conversation and why is he being talked about?
They are talking about Vick cuz they’re Vick-haters, first and foremost. And we’re winning games because Nick Foles plays perfect football, and the defense has nothing to do with our success. Did ya see the Lions game? It’s all about how great Foles was.
All the credit for overcoming 2 tds goes to Foles? Yeah, nobody else on this team does anything.
I don’t care about any of that Skayne, I want to know why it’s important and necessary to talk abut Vick, I guess it’s to provoke people to defend him so they can have something to argue about. No other reason I can tell.
Big Lion Loves him some MIKE VICK. Big Lion how come you don’t come to defense of Nate Allen, Lane Johnson, Andy Reid or Howie Roseman?
Big Lion loves him some Mike Vick.
You love the Steelers Super Bowl rings go root for the Steelers, Eagles0superbowls loves him some Steelers. LOL
marcus please move on! as an ex-QB you know that the QB is the focal point win or lose!
Ha…but its funny how Seattle’s defense some how gets credit for wins…
“the QB is the focal point win or lose”…
That really doesn’t make sense…how can an offensive player be the focal point, when a defense is giving up 30+ points? a single player? really? Whoever thinks that, their thinking is extremely flawed.
Tell that to the Big Ben, the first time he won the SB…He most certainly didn’t get the credit, I think the Steelers defense had a big hand in that…theres’ numerous examples just like this one….
seattles defense gets a lot of credit…well deserved… but russell wilson is the media and fan focus– he gives the interviews, will get the contract, gets the endorsements
unreal you are blinded by studpidity i believe…. the defense, the recievers, the o. line, the kicker, the long snapper are all part of the team but no matter how you slice it the man under center is the focal point… it really isn’t complicated– MOST IMPORTANT POSITION IN ALL OF PROFESSIONAL SPORTS– i didn’t make that up dimwit
You are a certified lunatic if you don’t think the NFL revolves around the QB position and they get the most credit when the teams win or lose..pointing out the very few exceptions over the years is foolish when they are minuscule to the vast majority of what occurs year after year esp when it comes to SB winners.
And if Seattle wins the SB, you think guys like Wagner, Thomas, Clemons are going to be running through the media the next day…is there going to be a defensive player on Letterman the following week? Its going to be all about Russell Wilson even though he plays with probably the best overall talent in the league. Just like he is above and beyond the focal point now, even though they have a stud defense.
If Eagles somehow met Seattle in the NFC champ, the majority of the attention leading up to the game would all be about how the 3rd round Qbs came out together, how they are the best young QBs in the league, how they are playing better than guys taken before them etc…its reality of the NFL. All about the QB
Don’t agree with that rational at all…so call me what you’d like! Bottom line, to me, that thinking is flawed, as I stated above.
So if a QB goes on the field and leads his team to 5 TDs…and his defense gives up 6 TD’s…its the QB’s fault? If a QB goes out there and only completes 50% of his passes but his defense only allows 7 points, its all about the QB? If a returner returns a punt and kick return for a game winner its all about the QB?
Is that the same case in Minnesota? yea they probably could use a better player at the QB position, but right now you play with who you have. AP obviously is the man who deserves the credit…
Just like this past weekend, McCoy and the O Line should get the credit. Along with credit to the defense, and everyone else after that!
If the Eagles defense reverts back to the defense of old, I think you’ll have more of an idea about what I’m talking about…When Foles throws for 5 TD’s and the Eagles still lose…
The last time I checked a game has not been played without defensive personnel…
How do you know it would be all about Wilson? what if he doesn’t have a stellar game…What if 3 INT’s are thrown by the opposing QB and ran back for TD’s…you make no sense…Games have to be played and you never know who or where the big play is coming from…Every team has their strengths and their weaknesses…Its not all about the QB…Not every team is blessed with a SB winning QB…and most don’t know until they win the SB, backed by a total team effort!
Maybe recent history its been more about the QB’s that won SB’s…but that does not change history…Do you recall the great defensive teams that won SB’s over the course of NFL history…? Without those defenses do they win a SB?
Unreal it is not a recent phenomenon for Christs sake… The steelers of the 70’s had the most dominant defense in history and terry Bradshaw starred in movies and is still on TV… Jack lambert is not! Bart Starr has streets named after him. Joe Montana had the greatest receiver ever yet he is the man… Tom Brady duh married a super model, does 1000 commercials… Every analyst says it’s a qb league. No nitwit it’s not ALL the qb… Never said it was but he is the focal point he gets the glory and the blame
Big,
Vick is mentioned now and again the same way Andy Reid is mentioned. They are both still very much in the minds of Eagles fans.
The difference is when somebody says “Reid would not have made the adjustments to win that game”….. you and Skayne don’t jump in to defend Reid.
I wonder if anyone would jump on this message board to defend Jeff Garcia? Garcia won more playoff games and brought this city more enjoyment than Vick.
I associate Michael Vick with the worst period of Eagles football in recent history. I think of Michael Vick in the same light as I think of Rodney Peete. Only Peete won a playoff game. But basically they both played during a transition.
In the future, Eagles fans will look back at Vick’s time as being a down period. Kinda like the Herschel Walker years – I bet you forgot he played here…
Wrong Irish those guys are no longer part of the Eagles, Vick is one snap away from being on the field or am I missing something?
I thought you were a long time fan Irish? I guess the Kotite and Rhodes era Eagles were a joy to watch. LOL
Oh you said recent like in this past 5 years. WOW that’s like saying the last two years is the worst I’ve seen the Phillies play in years. LOL
No, I mean recent like in the last decade.. 12 wins over two years is the worse it’s been since the 90s….
And It’s all Michael Vick? Juan Castillo and Sean McDermott and the wide nine never happened? Okay yep Michael Vick was the issue the last two years okay cool.
Yep, they are right there with Vick and his 1.9 turnovers/game as the biggest reasons we sucked for the last two seasons.
The only difference is that they got out of town and Vick stayed.
Great point IrishEagle
“Why are you dudes still talking about Vick?”
Do you have that programmed in to appear in every post?
No one, save a couple quick funny barbs by Eagles0 and Paulman, ever mentioned the former superstar on this thread.
Songs came out with his ridiculous (and thinly veiled) “Foles must win in prometime in order to prove himself….” ridiculousness and we called him on such absurdity.
That’s it.
I love it.
No one mentions ‘Vick’ Biglion reads ‘Vick’
Skayne then jumps in with the immediate and predictable ‘haters’ business.
No one once said, “all the credit goes to Foles” Skayne of course read “all the credit goes to Foles”
No one once said Foles was ‘great’ in the Lions game, Skayne reads ‘it’s all about how great Foles was’.
Guys, I heard on the radio that Sylvain learning centres are having a 2 for 1 Christmas special on their reading comprehension programs. You two should sign up.
Vick is still a Philadelphia Eagle and could be the saving grace if Foles goes down with injury.
It’s good to have him there so the offense can excel even with injury.
The defense is really the surprise at this point and the Eagles are in good shape as long as the offense goes.
We can’t afford a dear in the headlight game similar to that game against Dallas in which the defense played well enough to win but the QB choked.
The truth is offense played well earlier in the season while the defense sucked ass and cost games, but now the team is playing on both cylinders.
Foles is the guy and it’s good to know Vick is there in case of injury.
Dallas game!
Good that you mention the Dallas game where the D played well enough giving up 17 pts but the QB choked.
Yet you always fail to mention the KC game where the D gave up 19 pts but the QB choked, pick-sixing a freebie to the Chiefs and then throwing for 43% and another pick over the rest of the game.
You always fail to mention the Denver game. Big matchup when the QB choked his way to 50%, 13 pts and a yank from the game against a terrible D.
You always fail to mention the 2 NYG games where the starting QB choked to a grand total of 12 of 23 with a pick and a fumble.
So to review…..
Foles’ one game of 11 of 29 is “choking”
Vick’s 4 games of 39 of 80 3 ints, a pick 6 and a fumble is “not choking”
Its everyone else’s fault. The offense was “playing well” and the Defense “sucked ass”
Funny, but that wasn’t the D losing that KC game. Nor the giants loss.
Look, I’m as sick and tired of bringing up that loser Vick as anyone else. But as long as twits like Songs keep bringing up the Dallas game and warning us of Foles’ “choking”, I’ll keep reminding him that his hero was the kind of the chokes.
Too bad we were “winning now” at the start of the season…because if the Eagles had begun the season with Foles, I am sure they’d be 9-4 right now.
Maybe you and skayne, and theone1, and koolbreeze can have a prayer meeting and ask for Foles to have an injury so Mike Vick can ride to the rescue.
Talk about haters!
Look at this fool. One of the primary reasons the Eagles are in this position to begin with is because Foles stepped up and is playing as a top QB in the league. I get it, the redskins fan boards must not be too much fun for you over the past couple of weeks. Esp now that they are starting a white guy this Sunday, you must be ready to jump off a bridge.
You heard what Chip said?
Injuries happen.
It’s good to know we have Vick to come in and the offense won’t miss a beat.
I’m behind both.
Go Foles!
Go Eagles!
and Go Vick if the QB goes down with a season ending injury!
The offense will miss a beat. More turnovers, three and outs, and losses will come with Vick.
I was wondering if Vick would’ve come up with and executed that last fourth down play that went to Celek? Nope!
That’s being a leader and field general.
That KC game was a ckoke out on Mike’s part, that team could’ve been had if the offense could have been a little more productive. That early pick 6 certainly didn’t help.
I like Foles right now mainly because the refs throws the flag in favor of the Eagles when he’s in.
Vick can’t get a late hit call to save his life but if you look at Foles the wrong way the flags come raining down.
I like the ref’s advantage with Foles and hope we can ride it to a Superbowl berth.
not the 19 td’s to 1 int? not the 5 game win streak? not the top passer rating in the nfl? refs flags? really? shouldn’t you be in your 7th grade english class this time of day?
It could’ve been 20:1 if Celek decided to score on that brilliantly executed play!
Don’t take the bait for this ridiculous troll. Go back under your bridge Songs.
Thanks for clearing that up FraudSongs. All of Files success this year is due to the refs. Brilliant, if only Kelly would have figured that out earlier, we could be 13-0.
Is it the refs fault that your other hero RIP I isn’t playing now also? I am sure that you have another conspiracy theory for that on too.
Transparent and a FRAUD. What a loser you are.
stupid auto-correct on my phone….Files is actually Foles…..RIP is actuall RGIII….sorry for the confusion….carry on
Witlock with a pretty damning article on RGIII.
Aren’t we all happy we now have a QB who consistently and constantly says “my fault” when things go wrong, and “everyone else” when things go well.
We’ll never see mid-offseason press conferences. We’ll never see 50,000 Nike ads. We’ll never read tweets.
I love it.
I will need to read the Witlock article.
I like RGIII. I think that he is a good QB when healthy. I think that his leg injury leads to some problems in his throwing motion and that causes more incompletions and interceptions…never a good thing for a QB obviously. He is a competitor, and wants to do everything that he can to help his team win, but that can lead to him trying to do too much or play when he is not healthy and hurting his team more.
He is in a terrible situation with Shanahan. I believe that RGIII has tried to be a leader on the team,a stand up guy, but clearly he and the coach have not been on the same page for some time.
As a player in the NFL, I want to see him do well. As an Eagles fan, I want to see the turmoil in an NFC East rival continue, but I respect him as a player. Funny thing is, I believe that they also have a very good QB in Kirk Cousins, so the drama in DC is bound to continue for some time into the future.
More from Whitlock.

Hello, My Tag here is Xevious some of you call me X. My name though is Dave and as Dave a life long Eagle fan I would like to put my views out there on what this topic has devolved to. Lately I haven’t posted much because of the pure disgust for certain posters on this blog. To make it short and simple there are people on here that are so hypocritical and full of shit that an intelligent person can see right through any lie they post. If there was any justice in the sports world you assholes would be quarrantined from any Joy coming from an Eagles victory. To see the Bullshit you post and how your personal standards are raised week after week is disgusting. You have already showed how LOW your standards are for performance by who you have supported the 12 years. I will from this point forward not respond to you hate filled assholes. I truly hope that you learn someday what truly good QB play is. You can’t enjoy a good thing when you see it. I don’t include TS or Big in this post. As for the rest of you line moving in denial Non fans, shut the fuck up, go root for the Redskins or whatever team you want. As always go Eagles drop Dead you other Posing Mother fuckers!!
-Dave
you really have the nerve to judge folks, with the hatred you spout around here the past few years, toward one QB? You are ignorantly selective and as disgusting as those as you rant about above…
I have one agenda for the Eagles to win, and that QB wasn’t winning and was a huge factor in the lack of winning. I don’t go Rah Rah like a dummy when I see something isnt working for 12 years. Judging has nothing to do with it, I just won’t tolerate it anymore. You have no idea what your talking about for not once have I hated on the man that is Vick, but I can’t take his below average QB play on my team. That’s it, you and others around here will settle for bad QB play cause he is your guy. Most important position in all of sports but you accept his play cause you like him. Thinking like that is why we are the only NFC East team without a superbowl. You call yourself real talk but you can’t see reality. Look above this post and defend the garbage up there with facts. You sit there and make excuses year after year but the facts are what’s on the stat sheet and in the record book. Next to that excuses and what could of or should of mean shit. I am not a casual football fan, I know the game and analyse things. I try to take personal feelings out of the Eagles because it skews reality when analysing things. It gets frustrating and infuriating to see hypocrites post things hoping for injury and are obviously racially bias. Im not alone in these feelings I am sure. Im just going to put it out there cause frankly with out Honestly this blog will never get any better!!
TS and that clown biglion should be on the top of your list, especially that passive aggressive biglion, I at least respect men like songs, who are up front with their bias, you are “hatin” on the wrong folk, another pussy term for being real and calling them out for what they are
Don’t get me started on your punk ass, say what you want just keep race out of it Idiot # 2.
Yawn- still talking about Vick are we boys?
Birds win this game big… Foles lights it up. Ill be there… anyone taking the trip out here to see me… i mean… the birds?
Rev I am sure that you will be dressed in GREEN and screaming loud and proud for the Birds.
I don’t know how many other GCobb fans will make it out…it isn’t like Minn/St Paul is a vacation desination in December!….but hopefully you won’t be alone and we can make our presence felt!!
GO BIRDS!!
you’re absolutely right green.
right now I have guarded optimism.
I really wish Vick could have stayed healthy but I’ve been thinking hard on this…..
If Vick don’t care to learn how to slide then he don’t deserve to have the position.
A starting quarterback must protect themselves for the good of the team.
Foles have showed patience, learned how to run the offense, and have a touch on the ball that’s receiver friendly.
He even throw receivers open for Yards after the catch.
I’m not blind.
Foles is showing me something but I’ll see how he handle leading the team under pressure.
Winning the last 3 games solidifies his position as the quarterback of the future…and if he succeeds at doing so then it will be well deserved.
Vick can be a back up….as long as he Eagles win.
I’d rather have Foles and win than Vick and lose.
Go Eagles!
Go Foles!
The Eagles undoubtedly would have won with Vick or Foles…the play of the Offensive Line and the improved Defense are the major factors in the resurgence of the Eagles…Foles has been effective…his best game was not the Oakland game but the Detroit game where he threw the interception in my view…it was the first game that he responded to some real pressure…in leading the Eagles to a come back win
The bottom line is winning…and Foles is winning!
He has to keep winning and take us to the playoffs…all of the teams left for us to beat we are better than! We are better than the Vikings, Bears, and Dallas….we should win all three and make the playoffs!
Bottom line no excuses…all Foles has to do is what he supposed to do and the job rightfully belongs to him!
Great post songs welcome back
“The Eagles undoubtedly would have won with Vick or Foles ”
WOW YOU REALLY DO HAVE DOWN SYNDROME”
Mhenski, you cherry picked one off comment by songs, but for the most part rev songs was dead on, welcome him back, he’s a Philly guy
jake , songs didn’t write what I quoted dude.
Have fun Stevo!!!!!
Nick Foles has quarterbacked the Eagles to five wins in a row…. Mike Vick has never won five games in a row in his career.
But the Vick fans need Foles to win 8 in a row to be worthy of their approval. What a joke you guys are…. LOL
Vick took a team to the NFC Championship game.
That’s a proven NFL QB.
Vick have been an MVP runner up more than once, so yes…
Nick Foles have more to prove.
The stars are aligned for him to do so.
Foles have the best running back in the league, good receivers, and a defense on the rise.
So, he should be able to win 3 games in which the Eagles would be favored down the stretch.
Right?
Song’s according to the Farmers ALmanac, it’s 2014 and not 2005, Let it go man, Vick is in the rear-view mirror, let him go out with dignity and repsect. You and a few others have not noticed that the Franchise, it’s Coaches,Players, the Media have all moved forward now with Nick FOles… It’s the way it is and the ‘What have you done for me Lately” World that we live in today… So Embrace it, or Get off the Bus .. It’s this Simple…
read my post before Irish bogus response.
I’m in with Foles but there’s still more he must do to solifdy his position beyond this season.
Good recievers? So has your opinion of Cooper changed now? I thought that you dubbed him as ass?
The same old tired and lame Vick bashers are at it again!
Stop it..and spare us the bull!
Vick got hurt…he didn’t lose the job because of poor play…he played very well…he got hurt! Simple has that…if Foles gets hurt…I have no doubt that Vick will step in and do very well. The team has confidence in him…however the Offensive line is playing at a level where it is extremely hard to imagine that Foles would get hurt.
Foles came in and Chip Kelly has made the right decision to go with the hot QB since the team has not lost and and over the course of time…the major improvements has been the offensive line and the defense! The Offensive line has been down right dominant..Foles has been extremely comfortable in the pocket…his best game was the Detroit game! Foles brought the team back from a deficit and then Shady and the O-line took over. He should some poise under pressure. Its all down hill from here…there is absolutely no reason why we should not make the playoffs!
Songsrme2 is absolutely correct! Foles has the job and everything is pointing upward for him…we have three inferior teams to beat to make the playoffs! Lets allow Foles to finish the job and see how well he plays in the playoffs. Then we can make a fair determination if he is a franchise Quarterback…so far he looks like one…but the job is not finished!
Make the playoffs and then we can talk about Foles has the long term solution for the team
The reverend songs has always been up front, real with his views, his apparent biases , I repect his views on sports, life, I do not condone his bias against foles, but I understand him, walk in his shoes before you judge him
Hey kool, I agree foles still has more to prove before being anointed rhe “franchise qb”, but give the man his due
If for some unexpected reason Nick Foles forgets how to make good decisions with the ball and begins turning the ball over – or if he loses his accuracy and his completion percentage drops to 54% – or if he starts holding on to the ball too long and starts taking too many sacks…. then we whould draft a QB.
But Foles would have to be injured for Vick to ever start a game in Philadelphia again. Unless Vick can turn the clock back five years. At some point you guys will have to accept that fact
We do not need to talk about mike Vick as the eagles starter, unless foles goes down with injury, then we will be glad we have him, Vick has always has been a dynamic player, and great teammate, unlike that fraud, puss mcchoke , Vick will step in and do the job
So just stifle it going forward, it’s foles and Vick, a great combo
agreed….it’s Foles with a competent back up in Vick….and if Vick goes down the machine keeps moving.
mcnabb was 999999999999999999 times a better qb than Vick
Hey green fan, there is only one reverend, and it’s not stevo, it’s reverend songs, as monickered by Jakedog years ago, for better or worst, I have had my battles with my friend songs, it was not always nice, but songs is a real man
isn’t it great how wins brings us together?
GO EAGLES!!!!!
Wrong Jake. I have been calling Stevo Rev for years because he is a Youth Minister.
You seem to have some weird fascination with FraudSongs. I don’t. He is from DC, no Philly guy. He declared at the end of last season that he was an RGIII and Redskins fan. He is a Fraud.
By the way…McNabb was right about the Shanahan’s.
It’s a travesty what they’re doing to RG3 and something like this could have never happened to Andrew Luck in the same situation. RG3 should force a trade.
Shannahan is an ass and I never cared for him, but RG3 has brought alot of this on himself too.. Just a complete dysfunctionalbe group there in Place in Washington right down from Owner Snyder to the Control Freak Shannahan, to his goofy,overmatched son, Kyle, who wouldn’t even have an NFL Job if not for his Father right on down to RG3 and his Medddling Managemet Team, Marketer’s,Agents & Parents
Beautiful songs, I agree brother, just beautiful , let’s go eagles
Paulman Trade Alert
With QB Cousing playing the final 3 Games (and who was Shanahan’s choice to start the Season with, but was overruled by Owner Synder/GM Allen and RG3’s Dad) The Redksins Trade RG3 and TE Fred Davis to the Houston Texans for 1st Round Picks in 2014 & 2015 along with 1 2nd Rounder’s & 2 3rd Round Picks spread out over the next 3 Drafts
Good Move for everyone
Coach Shanahan will then re-focus his Offense to complement Cousin’s Stregnths as a West-Coast Passing Attack and will come back for his 5th and FInal Year on his COntract with the Redksins after the Skin’s finish 2-1 to end the 2013 Season.. Shanahan will be forced to Fire DC Jim Haslett and his entire Staff … You heard it here First…
I keep waiting for Redskin owner Daniel Snyder to fire Kyle Shanahan but keep his dad as this Soap Opera keeps getting stranger
I know a guy who was an ast. redskins coach a few years back- previous coaching staff . He interviewed with Kyle S. to remain a coach under this staff…. he told me that Kyle S is clueless. Everything he told me is happening.
We should take a Poll
Who would you want as Your Offensive Coordinator
Kyle Shanahan or Brian Shottenheimer … Good Grief…
The NFL is supposed to be the home of the Best & Brightest, not these 2 overmatched,clueless Coach’s who only have NFL Jobs because of the Cronyism and having well-known Father’s …
