Its Fu**ing Eagles Week!!!!

Washington Media Play McNabb Race Card (http://www.myfoxphilly.com/dpp/sports/eagles/111010-washington-media-play-mcnabb-race-card)

Give me a break! I hate the media...

What A joke, I swear people are so dumb

As much as I hate to say it, I do not like our chances. When was the last time we played well on a Monday night? The Eagles are a very quick team and quick strike team. They will get their big plays against us. In addition, the only reason we beat them last time is that we ran well against them. Torrain injured, Portis injured, Klieland Williams? Please - I like the guy but we aren't getting morre than 75 yards on the ground with him toting the rock. On top of all that, our LB's, while decent pass rushers and run pluggers, couldn't cover their head if you gave them a hat.

Philly eat's us alive. Grossman starts in the 2nd half.

Philly 31
Skins 14


Everyone said this when we played them the first time.

Washington Media Play McNabb Race Card (http://www.myfoxphilly.com/dpp/sports/eagles/111010-washington-media-play-mcnabb-race-card)

Give me a break! I hate the media...

First I've heard of those comments from Feinstein. I know Jason Whitlock made some similar comments (though he later backtracked) saying something like "I'm surprised Shanahan didn't tell McNabb to sit on the bench and eat some fried chicken" but several other members of the media responded to Whitlock's comments and said this had nothing to do with race, and to play the race card or accuse Shanahan of being racist was out of line. So let's not go and lump the media all together on this

Feinstein is being ridiculous

I think we win. But my reasons are less football oriented and more personality driven.

1) the Eagles just beat the f***in Colts. That is a pretty good high to come off of.

2) the Skins team looks in disarray(but my gut says they aren't).

I don't think that the Eagles are as much of a front running team as the Cowboys, but I think that they will tend to be over-confident.

I think Vick will play a little more fearless "just to show them they didn't scare him", and that will lead to bad decisions.

Shanahan either was an idiot or evil genius with his benching McNabb. Since I rarely saw him do idiotic things in Denver (mind numbing yes, idiotic no) I think he knows what he was doing, both for that game, and for the season. McNabb has generally responded well when benched, and I think we are going to see a high performance month in November from him.

Yeah Cinci lost, but being a home underdog against a division rival, when you beat them once at their place. I think Shanahan and company will come out and put quite a display on.

The Eagles are not a thundering herd, and will make mistakes. We will just need to capitalize on them.

Ultimately, there's not a lot of football analytics that are going to "prove" we will win, but hopefully my smoke and mirrors have convinced even a legal mind like Joe. This is a game of who wants it most, and I believe when the final whistle is blown, McNabb will be kneeling with the ball and the W.

Eagles 22.I can't come up with too many football reasons we will win this game. That doesn't mean there aren't any good ones, but it's just that it relies on our players and coaches who have underachieved to this point need to come out and play particularly well out of a bye. It's not rare for that to happen with two weeks to prepare, but I'd say it's a bit unlikely.

I think the fact that the Eagles had an 8th day to prepare for this game negates some of the advantage we got in preparation thanks to our bye.

I would say the default is to hate all media, and make exceptions on a rare case by case basis:cheeky-sm

Yeah I don't get why anyone plays the race card here.

The #Redskins will be making their 60th appearance on MNF. Only 6 #NFL teams have played more games on Monday Night.

If the #Redskins find a way to beat the #Eagles on Monday Night Football, they'd be 3-0 in the NFC East for the first time since 1991.

I'm surprised at your prediction given your name

Maybe I was talking about potato skins. They are delicious.

I'll be pulling for you guys this week. I think Philly is the 2nd best team in the conference and the more they lose the better.
