The only way I see the Eagles winning is if they can get control of the line of scrimmage. I've only seen 2 games shown by the Eagles, and one was the NYG dominating them. However, Mcnabb IS pretty mobile, so it'll be a good game. Plus Lito Sheppard is returning, AND they're playing in Philly.

Woodson is on returns because that was his bread and butter when he was a youngster. he's labeled as the last defensive player to win the Heisman, when in reality he won it due to his terrific return abilities and an occasional long bomb TD at WR. he was a great cornerback, too, but thats not why he won the Heisman.
the Eagles debacle against the Giants was more so due to poor preparation and the failure to adjust, and having a 2nd-year guy making his first career start--LT Winston Justice--didn't help matters. either way, the blame was on Reid for that. his very own linebackers coach from 1999-2006, Steve Spagnuolo, was the defensive coordinator that was calling all of those stunts and blitzes, and Reid just stood their with his thumb up his ass.
I think the Bears are going to be the much hungrier team after being somewhat "embarrassed" by the Vikings, where as the Eagles eeked out an ugly win at the Jets. the Eagles have looked complacent for most of the season, and if they continue to play that way, the Bears are gonna tear them a new one.
as an Eagles fan, I want to see a healthy dose of Brian Westbrook, Correll Buckhalter and Tony Hunt in the early going. set up the play action pass, and don't be afraid to take shots downfield on a Bears defense that has been prone to giving up big passing plays. on defense, set the tempo by going after them with the front 7 and some DB blitzes. don't stack the box until Benson proves you need to; and don't drop 5 or 6 in coverage until Griese proves you need to. set... the... tempo.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Koren Robinson, who was suspended for one year for violating terms of the NFL's substance abuse policy, has been reinstated and can return to practice immediately, ESPN's Chris Mortensen is reporting.
Robinson's suspension came in the wake of an incident in August 2006 while he was playing for the Minnesota Vikings.
Police said Robinson led them on a car chase at speeds over 100 mph, and his blood-alcohol content was found to be 0.11 percent, above the legal limit of 0.08. The Vikings cut Robinson, and he signed a two-year deal with the Packers in September.
However, he played in only four games before he was suspended.
In February, Robinson was sentenced to 90 days in jail after pleading down to a charge of fleeing police. Robinson also was sentenced to three months in jail for violating probation on a separate drunken-driving case in Kirkland, Wash., last year.Not sure how I feel about this. If he can get his **** together, he could be a nice addition to the offense... Hope he doesn't steal any production from James "earl" Jones - have him starting next week I think.. |

WRONG! CB are usually some of the best athletes on the team, they can take hits too and give them if need be. Ellis Hobbs does it for the Patriots. True. I forgot about him and Colclough for the Steelers. (Though Holmes usually gets them now.)  |

Leftwich is starting.
Not gonna make any difference though, Leftwich is nowhere near a fit for Atlanta. Hurry up and bring on Brohm.

Im hoping for another Giants win. Although Im a little worried, since all the games Ive been to this year for the giants, they've lost except for the Eagles game in September.

This will be an....interesting week for Pittsburgh. Holmes and Troy are good. Ward is 50/50, Hampton is doubtful, and McFadden is def. out. I am thinking that this will be a mostly ground game for the Steelers. Just because Denvers run defence blows and if Parker and Najeah* get loose, there is no stopping them.

I'm not as worried about Dallas anymore, after seeing their last two games we've seen they are inconstant and not as almighty as their fans would want us to believe. We need the Viking to beat the Cowboys, we honestly need all the teams in our division to lose a few games. The Giants, if they stay healthy and continue to play at this growing level of consistency will definitely win 12 game with the cupcake schedule we have.
Sunday, 11/11 4:15 PM ET DALLAS
Sunday, 11/18 4:15 PM ET at Detroit
Sunday, 11/25 1:00 PM ET MINNESOTA
Sunday, 12/2 4:15 PM ET at Chicago
Sunday, 12/9 1:00 PM ET at Philadelphia
Sunday, 12/16 8:15 PM ET WASHINGTON
Sunday, 12/23 1:00 PM ET at Buffalo
Saturday, 12/29 8:15 PM ET NEW ENGLAND
We can go 6-2 or 2-6, hell even 8-0 or 0-8. It all depends on whether we stay healthy and continue to play at a higher level.

unless something falls though, I'll be at that 12/9 game. and unless something else falls through, Osi Umenyiora won't be going up against Winston Justice again. he'll be going up against 3-time All Pro William "Tra" Thomas.
bring it on, beeatches.

please tell me you didn't make that.
anyways.
Walker's out for a few more weeks, which isn't good because Marshall is no where near experienced enough to carry the load. Henry needs to step up and carry our offense for the next few weeks, good thing we got Pittsburgh this week at home. we'll maul them.
