Every thing the eagles are doing is not because of talent

But because they are just our scheming their opponents. The maclin pass is the prime indicator of that.

McCoy and Maclin are very talented, and so is their offensive line.

The scheme is helping, but the scheme wouldn't matter if they didn't have talent.
It was a bad year when the NFL and the networks

McCoy is talented  
Essex : 9/15/2014 8:47 pm : link
Maclin has never been anything more than a solid 2. The scheme and the OL is what wins for the Eagles. That Indy couldn't take advantage of their depleted offensive line is worrisome for this game.

Maclin played with Vick and McNabb when they were both even more inaccurate than Eli. I think Maclin is better than Cruz and if he played with a real QB, you would see how good he is.

I've been called many things here, I'm mostly misunderstood (lol), but don't let the uneducated fool you, I go pretty far back and can drop names like George Young, Wellington Mara and Dan Reeves ( to name a few) that I've had dinner with not to mention family members that have worked for the NFL for over 50 years combined.

Talking Giants football intelligently left this place a long time ago. I can't tell you the name of the guy the Giants were paying to take LT's piss tests but I know what he looks like.

That said, I have never been accused of being a dupe. A dope maybe, but never a dupe.

Yep. This is the most annoying one of them all.

The Chiefs just lost Charles indefinitely. Tillman just tore his triceps again and is done for the year for CHI. Moreno dislocated his elbow yesterday and will miss several weeks.

This is what football is. It sucks. But it's reality.

I don't question refs calls usually but what the hell was going on with James Jones in the Oakland game when he was clearly dragged out of bounds, was the first to come back in and touch the ball only to fumble again?

Cause its allowed fucktard. That only is negated when a pass is thrown. Jones had already established himself with the ball in bounds before he fumbled.

Bradshaw popped off against the Giants when Indy  
Reese's Pieces : 9/15/2014 9:53 pm : link
signed Nicks. Don't expect him to ever be back.

Quote:
Bradshaw seems to think that Nicks' situation and his are similar, and emblematic of a perpetual desire by the Giants to churn their roster.

"I know how it is over there. How they work," Bradshaw told Mike. "It gets bad as you get more years in the league with Giants. You get the younger guys coming in. They visualize, and with me, they visualize me leaving and David Wilson coming in and being that guy. Andre Brown being that guy, and they had those two guys. They were like, 'Leave that money alone. Let him [Bradshaw] go, take care of the little guys.'[Wilson and Brown] That's how this league is becoming.

Nicks, for the record, had nothing but good things to say about the Giants and Eli when he left. A little hard to believe, but when an interviewer asked him if had had a "love/hate" relationship with Coughlin, Nicks said no, he thought it was just a love relationship.

The Giants do let some vets go who still have tread left on them: Tuck, Osi, Joseph when they have a younger and cheaper replacement. Other vets with nothing left they keep, largely because they have no better replacement.
Is that true Dip?  
Rocky Thompson : 9/15/2014 9:55 pm : link

I'll give you points and actually address one or two more posts from you. I thought once you were out of bounds, you couldn't be the first player to touch the ball.

You got me if that's true, I didn't know. Not bad for an Eagles fan...

Bradshaw is bitter. The Giants had young guys and did the right thing but it didn't work out. Win some, lose some, but Giants seem to lose most of them!

Yes its true. And if he touched the ball when out of bounds, the play is dead. But he is more than eligible to recover his own fumble even if he was out of bounds.
Bradshaw had injury problems...  
Britt in VA : 9/15/2014 9:58 pm : link
He also missed a lot of games last year.

Love him, but what did he have, 8 surgeries on his feet? He's like the oldest 28 year old in the league.

He looks great tongight, though. Nothing but the best from me for Ahmad.

last year with the Giants because of his nearly crippled feet.

But his last year with the Giants was more productive than I thought. He ran for over 1000 yards, 4.6 y/c, and caught 23 passes for over ten yards a catch. In 2010 he caught 47 passes.

I can see why he might be bitter. They haven't found a replacement yet.

Interesting point. I wonder what would have happened if Peyton never had the neck problem. Wonder if they wold have thought to draft another QB when they took Luck.

Why you run twice in the middle with Richardson when you have Andrew Luck as your quarterback is beyond me. The goal should not be 3rd and 5. The goal should be to stay out of 3rd down, so that doesn't happen.

Tackle makes his block, RB goes 80 yards for a TD. No one play ever decides a game, it's only perception. Give the refs back the ability to call a game without being put up on the big screen. It's an impossible task. Replay is just as mind boggling as some of the calls...

Horse collar was a bad call but why aren't you pointing out a missed block in the 2nd quarter that would have sprung the screen to Richardson for a TD. Just as relevant, actually, even more so.

Refs are reacting to what they see, they don't get a copy of the script before the show, players know what's going to happen, sure, there's bad calls but the referees do not decide a game, it's pretty simple...

Please go and look at his Oregon teams. They couldnt win the big game. Happened every year. They would usually lose and it wasn't just on the road to teams they had no business losing to. The one year that they got to the national title game they lost because their offense sucked in the game, defense kept them in it.

He's a great offensive mind, but his teams have always come up small in the big spot, and the Eagles did that last year, which was the norm at Oregon

If I'm the Eagles, I would never even consider paying Foles big money. He made a bunch of bad throws tonight. They could bring in a bunch of different qb's for cheap to do what he does. Hopefully they never get their hands on a running type QB with a big arm. A guy like Kaepernick would be deadly in that system

receiver, the receiver would catch the ball and go down, and if the receiver had the ball when he got up it was a catch.

Now they look at every reception in super slow motion to see if the ball slipped the smallest bit and touched the ground for an eight of a second.

Who needs that as a rule? Go back to when you intuitively knew if the guy had caught or dropped the ball without having to spend five minutes looking at the replay.
