You can take every single NFC team and devise a long list of everything they got going wrong with them. I cannot remember a year like this in the NFC. We are mos def in the discussion as a playoff contender...along with everyone else in the NFC. Our greatest weakness now? Running game easily. Our greatest strength, maybe not a position, but we are physical and we are learning how to win tough, ugly, close games which in our conference right now is HUGE. To have Atlanta right now as the top team in our conference is great news.

Aren't you forgetting someone here?

I've grown out of the week-to-week and "be happy" mantras that supposedly mark the sign of "good fanhood".

Our lines still suck. Look at Tennessee, those guys are flying all of the place. It's no freaking wonder Albert was homesick for the whole offseason. Look at the Jets, they can go single coverage and do all out blitzes because they've got all the pieces in their entire D. We, on the other hand, have Rak and Inconsistent Albert as our only two intimidating linemen. Our corners are solid but these guys make playing zone look incredibly difficult.

We do not have the running game when we face defenses with great lines. We've ran very well against 4-3 lines that are undersized or lacking in talent, but we've been stonewalled against stacked [3-4] lines.

McNabb's going to be in a body bag by the end of the year if he has to keeping on passing 40+ times every freaking week. We're maybe about 15th in the league, AT BEST.

We'll see. I think he's better than you think he is, but I thought he'd have more than zero turnovers at this point

I don't think anybody would have guessed he would be rocking a 8-0 TD to INT ratio.

Re: OK guys! 3 more games until the BYE Week.

I think McNabb is doing very well, I just really wish he'd stop missing those easy throws. I'm sure this will improve, and I think it has been improving, it's just that some of those early throws in the GB were ugly.

Still, McNabb is almost carrying this offense and has put up huge numbers.

Pretty much what Eagles fans said all those years.

I do think some of those are a little out of character though. I'm guessing his banged up leg is hurting his accuracy a bit.

Yeah, he did not look mobile at all in that last quarter and in OT. I'm sure the guy was in pain. I'm sure they'll keep a bit mum about this (a la Belichick) but McNabb is banged up.

Let's hope the line can keep Freeney and Mathis away from him this weekend.

yeah thats been the knock on him...west coast offense qb with questionable accuracy maybe not a great fit. But his accuracy on deep throws, better than I thought...

Re: OK guys! 3 more games until the BYE Week.

It's funny that Rodgers sucks now to people, since the Redskins beat them...lol

KFFL message boards has a Rodgers thread that starts off about how awesome he is and that he will be better than brett at the beginning of the 1st few pages and then on the last couple pages after we beat them...he all of a sudden is a choker,can't win the big game,etc,etc,etc..lol

Either fans are so fickle or we truly are looked at as a joke of this league.
Maybe both?
I hope we win the whole damn thing in Texas Stadium...

Re: OK guys! 3 more games until the BYE Week.

Along the same lines, I find it amusing how the teams we have beaten this season were SB contenders if not already annoited. We play them, sneak out with the win and leave half their staff in the hospital.
NEXT DAY the media.....WHO, WHAT....Oh no, they suck.....now
Except for Colin Smootsmack of course

.McNabb is known for those poor throws that bounce to the WR and its probably the biggest knock against him. Sunday I think he actuallu threw a few of those balls into the turf to avoid and INT but the others were just bad passes.
