But we're still facing one of the top passers in the league, and our secondary stinks - All of them.

Well, we're a 500 team these last 2 years. Knowing us, we'll do everything we can to screw ourselves out of a good draft pick yet miss the playoffs. In other words, I could see us winning

I believe I will be happy no matter what outcome. We lose, Reid and company are one step closer to being out the door. If we win, we are still hunting in NFC East. Win-Win

I think another loss and Lurie makes a move I think. I honestly don't believe Reid cares about winning or the fans anymore. They may win simply to protect the status quo. I hope they lose though.

Like I mentioned before.  The Eagles are like a BOX OF CHOCOLATES.  It can go either way.  It's a really sad thing too.  If they were even a half decent team you could make a choice with great certainty.  But at this point you can't.  :nonono:

Even though I want to strangle Reid and Vick, I know we can win this game, it just comes down to change. You'd like to think that the eagles defense will be fired up after getting humiliated at home last week. And really the same for the offense, this is the game where McCoy can defintely finish the game with 110+ rushing yards, the Saints defense is that bad.

Honestly the only threat for us is Brees, Graham and Colston.

I was going to say that with the Saints defense being as bad as it is, they have a shot.
Now do I think they will ??? NO.

Currently you have 2 really talented teams that are a mess and have the ability to turn their fortunes around on any given game day.
The question is what debacle of a unit plays better this week.
The incredibly embarrassing Saints defense that couldn't stop most good college teams or the incredibly embarrassing Eagles offense that wouldn't be able to score more then 17 points on most good college teams.

Obviously the low life gamblers will be betting the over on this game I assume ??

"You're MY BOY DREW!!"  I dont hope we lose, but I dont care if we win. Watching the Eagles on the both sides of the ball reminds me of watching the WNBA *yawwwwn* Ive been watching every Eagles game for the last 15 years or so, ALL OF THEM. Ive already fell asleep TWICE around halftime during there games this year. That should say something in itself. :nonono: :thumbsdown: :angry:

Our Offense is at a all time bad this year as well. So that doesnt help us much. The biggest factor is the Dome. We dont win in NO, thats just a fact. we suck when we play there, so this year with our O problems that doesnt make me feel any better about this game.

I've been watching EVERY Eagles game since 1972. (that wasn't blacked out back then) So for me the last 12 -13 years have been a pleasure compared to those prior 30 years.

That would be more than half the points we scored in 7 games , maybe there is a job for Juan Castillo on defense.

Just goes to show how important coaching is in the NFL, look at the Saints with their coach they are probably 5-2 without him 2-5....

With that said they are still good enough to beat us.  Best case scenerio is the Saints win something like 54-35.  Vick plays well enough for the fat man to keep him as the starter just so we dont start the Foles era too soon.  I dont want Reid to put Foles in too soon so then he has an avenue to plead to Lurie to save his job.  If he puts Foles in for the Dallas game and Foles leads the team to say a 5-3 mark I fear Andy will beg Lurie for his job pointing to how well Foles played and that he needs to be given another season to turn things around with Foles.

I can respect that. Im 26 and live in Oklahoma though. Ive been getting NFL Sunday Ticket since it began JUST for Eagles games. Before that I would only get to watch them if they played in prime time or against Dallas/KC. I know their history and they did used to suck something wicked haha
