NFC East

Week 3

Hello East fans,

After some great games this Sunday, it is time to analyze the teams in our great division, because no other division really matters in this league. Well let’s start off by evaluating the G-men, whom I really don’t know what to make of just yet. They struggled against a winless, defenseless Bengals team that looked like their season has just started. They went in at halftime losing by three but in reality it could have been more if their D-line had not stepped up and sacked Palmer at the end of the half. Their offense looked somewhat anemic against the bottom feeding defense, if we can even call it a defense of the Bengals.

After a defensive stop the G-men had couple chance to put the game away but once again had problems with a surprising Cincy defense. Their holes in the secondary eventually sealed their fate as the Bungles scored on a touchdown pass to TJ. In overtime Lil’ Peyton lead them down the field with nothing but luck, again. A deflected pass turned into a duck towards what seemed to be four defenders and fell helplessly to the ground. Next play Cincy can’t get to the QB, long pass and the G-men make the kick for the game.

Eagles -VS- Steelers

The Aftermath

Hello Eagles fans,

Well another crazy game was in store for us this Sunday evening, as we hoped to move above 500. There were so much action during the beginning of the game you felt like it was going to be another barn burner. But in the end after injuries and turnovers it turned into our defense imposing their will on the Steelers o-line. Right now I am hoping and praying that everything will be all right with both Westbrook and Donovan.

I really hate those games against the AFC, I don’t understand why but we always lose someone against one of those teams. Last year SuperFive missed two games after playing the Dolphins, the year before that it was the knee against the Titans. Akers getting hurt against the Raiders at home the year before that, I don’t know what it is but a significant injury always happens against one of those teams every year. Not to say that people can’t get hurt against any other team, I guess it’s just paranoia sinking in.

Hello Eagles fans,

I know you have been clamoring for my blog to post after those great literary works from last week. Okay let’s just leave it at that, we need to focus and pray so our boys don’t fall to 1-2. I believe that they could still get out of that hole and win the East but two wins seem a lot better than one going into the last week of September. Everyone knows the Steelers love to run and know they can supposedly throw. In order for us to come out victorious we will need a big offensive game, because the Steelers are awesome at blitzing.

I still think that their biggest holes are on the defensive secondary and just like we showed Adam (Ms. Pacman) Jones. We can throw against the Rams and the Cowgirls and I truly believe if we can protect SuperFive from that crazy haired maniac Polamalu. Then we can exploit them just like Fraction Jackson did against Ms. Pacman. It will be a tough game but I believe Westy will help us with those blitzing linebackers by gashing them with draws and screens.

Hello Eagles fans,

    After last night’s amazing game, I felt like extending my courtesies to the winning team and wishing them luck the rest of the season. Oh yeah right, they suck and we whooped their butts all over the field! Being the bigger person is so boring, good luck sucking for the rest of the year Cowgals. The confidence in our guys stands out and completely overshadows the opponent.

    I wanted to express my feelings towards Crybaby Johnson all during the week preceding last night’s game. He ran his mouth just for the sake of hearing himself speak. I truly believe that he has a mental problem, there is no other way to explain it. He runs his mouth about his team, his coach, his former team and coach. Then two years later proclaims that the Eagles still wanted him there, hey brainiac if Andy wanted you there you would still be there…exhibit A. Brian Westbrook. He also had a Pro bowl year and went about getting his money like a man. Not like the hissy-fit throwing pre-pubescent girl, that he obviously is.

NFC EAST

Week 2

Hello Eagles fans!

As I wait around waiting for tomorrow’s match up, I can’t help and look at our division just to get a sneak peek at the Gmen and the Redskins. They both seem pretty strong but as I watched the games I couldn’t help and notice some really big holes for both teams. Starting of with the scores you quickly see the depth on both sides of the ball for both teams.

First off let’s start with the Skins, tough high scoring game that was supposed to be about defense. Yeah they were resilient and held on to beat a Saints team that got rather lucky last week against a tough Tampa defense. If you give Campbell time in the pocket he will find a receiver, every time. But the times he needed to use his legs and was hurried he made bad decisions. The last touchdown to Moss, was his ability, he did a good job stepping up in the pocket to avoid the rush and knew Moss would get to the deep throw.

Hello Eagles fans,

      Well now that we are less than a week away from the Monday night game in Dallas, it seems that the Cowgirls are more scared of us than Hurricane Ike. Everyone seems to be taking shots at Philly, from that wonderful actress Jessica Simpson to that other wonderful actress Crybaby Johnson (T.O.) and even Adam “Ms. Pacman” Jones has gotten into the mud slinging. All my life I hear how Eagles are classless and pathetic, but in all reality our players seem to be less fazed by the other team then us. 

      They just want to go out there and do the best they can, I want to go out there and get a roughing the passer penalty on every play. Our QB seems to have his best games playing in Texas stadium, so I can understand his calmness and resolve. So while they keep on flapping their jaws about how the Browns are better than the Rams. Our boys are over here watching film and preparing to expose the mediocrity that is Roy “I can’t cover my own bed” Williams.

Hello Eagles fans,

Being that our beloved Iggles are gearing up to go into Dallas to face the hated Cowgirls, I feel obligated to share with you my most memorable Cowgirls moments. Since this is my blog, I can call that pop-warner football team in Dallas just whatever I feel like at the moment, so please enjoy it with me.

To start out I am from El Paso, Texas, I know what you are thinking but my deep rooted hatred for the Cowgals might be a little different than most Eagles fans my age. You see growing up in Texas and loving sports you are overwhelmed with football. Friday nights were and will forever be rituals where small drilling towns, stop production to go and see the youngsters kill themselves on the field for the good of tradition. From the big cities to the small Western Texas towns, Football is a religion.
