The Eagles are really starting to irritate me.· Page 2

Eagles are stacking their defense to be Packers killers--pass rusher in Jenkins, three pro-bowl cornerbacks who can play man-to-man.

I'm getting a bad feeling about this...

Throw in Ryan Grant and James Starks (assuming both last to the post season) I just don't see how a team could beat the Packers, unless Aaron Rodgers is out.

I'm putting my money on the following ..
Aaron Rodgers
Ryan Grant
James Starks
Greg Jennings
Jordy Nelson (who couldn't be stopped by the Steelers only in the most important game of the season)
Jermichael Finley

They just added some excellent talent, yes. How do you think those ego's are going to fit with the Eagles new defensive coordinator who spent the last 13 years as an offensive line coach? I think it's going to take them a little bit to get on the same page.

After landing Nnamdi Asomugha I was thinking they'll have a solid secondary if they don't trade one of the other two CB's. Then they got Vince Young and I started thinking of the Miami Heat because with Vince Young, if Vick goes down, they won't have to change their offensive flow too much to fit Young's style.

Now they have Cullen Jenkins and I'm not as worried as I probably should be. When you add this many pieces, it takes time for them to gel. We've seen this same type of thing happen with other teams and they rarely meet expectations.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Eagles go 9 - 7 or 10 - 6 and are one and done, again in 2011.

I don't mind seeing them go, but I hate to see another team sign "our" guys.

Biggest thing the Eagle have working against them is their new DC and the shadow of Jim Schwartz. Packer fans should know more than anyone the importance of good coaching. Dom Capers.

They must fix the offensive line, as must we.

The Eagles weakness on D is the Safeties and LBs. If we can force them to play their base D, they will have one of their pro bowl corners on the bench.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Anyone else abhor MNF wildcard games?

Martha Careful (7h) : Why is it that the Rams rookies can contribute right away but our first and second year guys are too young to contribute in a meaningful way

Martha Careful (7h) : Yes, Saquon Barkley had a very nice game. But he has a much better offensive line in front of him. I'll take Josh Jacob's. I love the guy

buckeyepackfan (11h) : Rumor has Mike going to The Bears.

Zero2Cool (16h) : Mike McCarthy is out as Cowboys coach

Mucky Tundra (13-Jan) : DOINKED IN FOR THE WIN!!!!!

TheKanataThrilla (12-Jan) : The Bills really need to improve their D. The have the ability to score at will, but if they stumble this D will not save them.

Martha Careful (11-Jan) : Two terrific NCAA Football Semi-Final Games...We can only hope the Championship game is as good

Zero2Cool (10-Jan) : Eagles WR DeVonta Smith will be a DNP in today’s practice. He’s dealing with back tightness. But the expectation is that he’ll play Sunday.

Zero2Cool (10-Jan) : Jalen Hurts has cleared the concussion protocol. He’s playing Sunday.

Zero2Cool (10-Jan) : 𝕏avier McKinney First Team All-Pro

Zero2Cool (10-Jan) : NFL moves Vikings-Rams playoff tilt to Arizona due to fires

Mucky Tundra (9-Jan) : Stud

Zero2Cool (9-Jan) : E. Cooper. Rookie of Month. Defense.

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : HUMP DAY

beast (8-Jan) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (8-Jan) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (8-Jan) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (8-Jan) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
