Report: Mangini turned down Eagles defensive consultant job | ProFootballTalk (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/10/12/report-mangini-turned-down-eagles-defensive-consultant-job/)

Hell yeah he did. He sees that ship sinking...why jump on?

This is a great thread! All week I have been listening to NFL radio and no one I have heard has brought up the fact that this is a revenge game for us. I am sure everyone who was on the team when we got demolished on Monday night in front of a national audience circled this game the day the schedules came out!

We are a well coached team and have had an extra week for film study / preparation. that being said, we should be able to figure a way to catch N.A. out of position once or twice. Plus, everyone knows that Torain is the perfect RB to go against the eagles right now. I'm talking SMASH MOUTH football!!!

To me, the key to the game will be keeping their O off the field and NOT letting Vick escape the pressure (because there will be pressure) and extend plays or make plays with his legs. I believe their O has too many play makers for us to assign a spy, so we will just have to be very disciplined.

I hope the coaches have played last years game for the team as a motivational tool this week!

LOL what is Mangenius doing with Condi Rice? Bow chicka wow woww....

The one thing I am most hopeful for is a solid game by Kerrigan and Orakpo in terms of containing (and smashing) Vick. The one thing I know I won't see is anyone on this team lying on the ground if Vick does get out loose

This will be a VERY hard game to win. Dirty Birds are desperate.

But if we can pull off the W, we'll officially move from "feel good story" to "legit division contenders".

Big game.

I agree that it will be a hard game to win, as are most division games. However the more I think about how "desperate" the iggles will be to win this game, the more I think we will be just as desperate to prove that we are a top tier NFC team! I can see our D selling out on every single play and forcing Vick into multiple turnovers. We have, what?, 3 picks so far this season? I would like to see us double that number this week!

Rex has gotta back his words this week

I'm saying skins 24 eagirls 17. Rex throws two to moss, and torain gets a rushing Td. Im not trying to spam but if anyone is interested I have a youtube channel talking about the redskins. check it out. The account is the same as my name on this site.

I just want to see good play calling from both the offense and the defense. Especially with the offense, I want us to exploit the Iggles offensive line. I don't want to see this whole three straight passes crap we've seen a couple of times.

Couldn't agree more.

The Eagles are not going to be an easy out by any means. They're a wounded animal right now- dangerous. They can score on anyone. All they have to do is clean up those turnovers. We're going to really have to establish the run and pound, pound, pound. Chew clock and keep it out of the hands of their offense.

I've heard plenty of people this week around town just assuming we're going to kick their asses. I don't think so. This is a massive game, and I'm nervous.

We haven't been able to deliver a knockout punch to a team in 20 years. We can effectively take all meaning out of the rest of Eagles season if we beat them, and more importantly we can seriously derail the entire direction of their franchise (well they're already hanging by a thread, we just need to cut it).

What an opportunity.
