NFC Playoffs: Atlanta Falcons at Philadelphia Eagles

Hoping to say goodbye to the Eagles today.  
wgenesis123 : 1/13/2018 10:40 am : link
Can't escape this feeling that Foles has a great game. Hopefully I just jinxed that.
If the falcons win this game  
LatHarv83 : 1/13/2018 10:46 am : link
Vs a backup qb or not, to make it back to the nfc title game after the collapse in last years Super Bowl is a hell of an accomplishment . What a bounce back to be back in that position. Hope they go take this whole thing honestly. Jaguars are the only other team Im kinda pulling for because of Coughlin

Anything can happen, but Atlanta's corners are playing really well and Foles has been garbage their last two games.

But I just dont see many realistic game scripts where Philly wins. Philly is going to have to get a ton of pressure and a defensive score or two plus a big game from Ajayi.
Go Eagles!

It will be the best thing for the Giants this year!

Ryan is better than Foles. Atlanta needs to force Foles to beat them. Ertz needs to be neutralized. I bet that man up on Philly WR's.

Brandon Graham the best?

Collingsworth saying no biggie with the fumble, the PI was basically like a punt. Umm no Chris, without the fumble the Eagles get at least three there.

what a bad call to go for it there. Why would you give this eagles offense that's struggling a chance at such great field position?

Glad they've pinned them back. Eagles O has been sloppy and making mistakes. ATL doesn't need to be taking risks at this point.

But even on this thread the interpretation is that if any part of the ball hits - it is incomplete.

The thing is - how can a play with such polarizing opinions be overturned? That's what continually happens.

He also took a sack near FG range, so they had to punt in enemy territory.
And shovel/fumble passed like down in the red zone. If that was Eli, we'd all be talking about that now. But when it's a "top QB" like Matty Ice, all is forgiven. He gets a pat on the back for scoring 10 pts in the playoffs.

Neither of those two teams is winning in Philly.


Completely disagree and think either will beat the Eagles next week. Minny's D will smother Foles and his O. Kennum won't have to do much but position them for a few FGs.

Brees and his O will score plenty on the Eagles secondary, and their D will limit Foles as well.

Eagles going down at home next week will be a great ending to the NFC year.
Philly still sucks!

LMAO...Talk about a swing and a miss, he was in one last year. You know the one where our Receivers dropped multiple passes at least two of them for TD's?

Eagles winning a playoff game with a backup QB. Giants could barely win a game all season with their starting QB, even before the injuries.

Incredible.

No I'm referring to the horrible job the Giants generally have done at managing their roster. It sucks and it's certainly not a source of pride.

Why is it that they can't even keep a roster together long enough to be in the playoffs consistently during their success cycles.. it's really strange.

I think this was supposed to go to #80 Toilolo. He engages the DE, then starts to break upfield. However, #53 Bradham comes flying in and blows Toilolo up.

It also looks like the center and left guard released and headed up field.

Only thing I can think of.

Eli as much as the next Giants fan. He's the best qb in Giants history. But for people to be on here pointing out Ryan's flaws while ignoring Eli's is just putting on rose colored glasses. The Giants haven't had a serious chance to compete for the NFC championship since 2012. Think about that. They haven't even been to the division round in 6 season. That's an eternity and a half in the NFL. I understand Eli isn't the entire reason for that. But he certiantly hasn't risen above his circumstances.

Case in point, the Giants have a 10 point lead on the Jets a couple of season ago. Coughlin elects to go for it on 4th down and trust his qb over his D. His qb proceeds to panic and throw an INT. Does a Brady or Brees do that, I don't know? To me it's just evidence that Eli hasn't risen above his circumstances over the past several seasons, despite putting up some nice numbers.

The crowd that wants to pass in a qb this year and go with Eli the next two years seems to be just delaying the inevitable and acquiescencing to more mediocre or worse football. That's why I'm all in on drafting one of the top 2 qbs and going for a rebuild. Maybe it works maybe it doesn't. But we're not being honest with ourselves if we think this is a team that's a piece or two away from a sb run.

Look at the resources committed to the Falcons offense in terms of draft picks, trades, and FA acquisitions since Ryan was selected.

Despite all of that Matty Ice comes up small in the biggest spots. Last year he ran like God and still couldnt close the deal on a championship.

I understand the criticism of Ryan. At least his team is in a position to compete. When was the last time the Giants were in that position? Losing 38-13 in Green Bay is not being competitive. Why not stat over? The pick is there, there are two potential qbs there, go for it!

Being in a position to compete is just a cocktease if you have a QB incapable of winning a big game.

I'm not arguing Eli's merits. He was able to accomplish something that no other qb has to date. But, how long are we all willing to live in the past? Is it such a bad thing to take a shot at a top young qb and try to duplicate the success of Eli and Co from 2005-2012? I'd rather say goodbye to him a year early then a year too late. This is a franchise that doesn't have an opportunity to draft top young qbs too often. And, they haven't exactly flopped on their last two true first round qb selections/acquisitions ( it may be selective, but I don't count Dave Brown in that, he was- for all intents and purposes- a second round selection to me).
