Eagles!!
325Trooper, so much for them being the Giants of last year
I was wrong. I said Philly would beat Dallas.
But Philly didn't beat Dallas.
They DISMANTLED Dallas!
I'm still finding it hard to believe, but that's the game. I fully expected Philly to win...by 3. This is insane. Congrats to Philly fans, and to Dallas fans - better luck next year. Can't wait to start hearing your championship talk again in august.

But then what am I talking about, I "don't know the game of football"!
That said, I agree with just about everything quoted above. Except I assert that it is Jerry Jones who needs to go. It's because of him that Dallas has been worthless this decade, and as long as he owns the team, they will remain the inconsistent team they have been. Obviously JJ isn't going anywhere, so I agree that getting rid of Phillips and Garrett might be the best course of action. Phillips isn't the hard hand that a team full of big shots needs. However, I don't think you will find a hard hand in the league right now that's willing to coach on Jerry Jones' team. This brings me back to my original statement, that JJ is the Cowboys real problem.
Enough about Dallas.
How about Philly tonight? With a performance like that, I start rethinking my assertion that they won't go anywhere in the playoffs. They've been hot as of late, and this game was a huge performance when they needed exactly that. Now they play Minnesota...whom they definitely have the edge against in almost all facets of the game, and if they win there, then who's left? Carolina and NYG. Well they've beaten NYG already, so that leaves Carolina as the only real big question mark in their path.
I still find it hard to believe that they'll make it. But maybe they are the Giants of this season.

Good times. Go Birds!
unbelievable how everything fell into place today. watching the Oakland/tampa bay game it wasnt lookin good when tampa when up 10 but than the stupid bucs fans had to put up that sign askin us for help to get them in the playoffs and the announcer said, "you need to win this game first..." it was all down hill from there.
Thankyou Houston!!! thankyou Oakland!!! and most important, thankyou TO and company for once again prooving your worth.....merry ****** Christmas!!

Go Eagles!!! I predicted a 35-17 win a few weeks ago, then after the Redskins game, I predicted a 2-3 loss. Our D is nasty again!!!
Dawkins FTMFW!!!!
Nothing will ever make me like Reid, not even if they win a SB. Six weeks ago, yes they were.
So are you going on the record as saying he should be canned today, right now? I think not.
Ok so for a "month" they were like the Giants
Are you trying to say that in November 2007 you knew the Giants would make the playoffs and win the Superbowl? If not, tell me the difference between the Nov '07 Giants and the Nov '08 Cowboys and why the Giants were so much better at that point in time.
This is classic...for weeks you tell me and others we are wrong when we say that Dallas will not make the playoffs...now that we've been proven right, you're in here trying to say you never said it. Save your breath and go somewhere else. You looked like an idiot before, now you have nothing at all to stand on.
Bottom line - I (and others) told you a month ago Dallas wouldn't make it. You said we were wrong. Now we've been proven right and you've been proven wrong. Hear that? You were WRONG.
End of story.
Oh and you can't compare a team to the 07-08 Giants unless that team wins the super bowl. MAYBE Philly will fit that bill this year...MAYBE.
i dunno why you guys are argueing about the Giants of 07 or the Cowgirls of 03-06...who cares...this is the Eagles of 08 and if what happened yesterday doesnt show you that they are destined to do something, i dunno what will. we're in..and thats all we need...its a whole new season. Minnesota here we come!
