So let's not go and lump the media all together on this

Feinstein is being ridiculous

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.

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.

You forgot to add we will still be two games behind the division leading Giants, who unless explode mid season, will be almost certainly a lock for the division title. We would still be lucky to get a wild card spot with the way our schedule is down the stretch even if we win this week. I know, I know, ever the optimist.

I don't agree with your assessment of the NFC.

Maybe we need to get her out of retirement.

Sure, Tonya could replace Rabach.

McNabb will be motivated. Look at his performances following his last benching in Philly. Plus, we're playing Philly.

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.

Skins 24
Eagles 22.

Actually Vick said in an interview that the skins game taught him a leason and that he will slide more to avoid the big hit. So I don't think that will be a factor.

[over the mountain]

Yeah if vick does the qb slide you cant hit him, if he dives head first like he did against us last game, hes fair game.

skins 27
eagles 17

First, I just quoted some twitter facts, I didn't really add or delete anything.

Second, and to your point specifically, the Giants have been known to collapse late in the season(started 6-0 last year failed to make playoffs). I expect them to lose to Dallas this week(call it a rebound game for the Cowboys more than a loss for the Giants), and we do play them twice, as does Philly, so these next 8 weeks ought to be very interesting. Which is better then the last 8 weeks last year, so I'm ok with that.

I like how your thinking but there is no way Dallas beats the Giants this week.

I can't find the quote, but he also said, that he's going to play the way he plays, and that's just him.
