    It's gotten so bad for the Pats at receiver, that Brady decided to show everyone how it's done

    Me after the loss to the Bucs:

    I never wanted Romo to come back this season, not after going 0-7 with him out. Many Cowboy fans agreed to shut him down and tank the rest of the season.



    If you don't think you can win the Super Bowl, there's 0 point in making the playoffs. Yeah, you guys beat an injury plagued Patriots team in a game which was as weird and chaotic as you'll ever see but that's no testament to the quality of this eagles team lol. You guys are bad just like every other team in this division. That's why you guys have lost 4 out of your last 6 games. Two of them being blow outs at the hands of sub .500 football teams.

    Anything can happen in the playoffs. Just ask the Giants who won their two most recent Super Bowls having chaotic regular seasons and just getting in. Nobody in the NFC is unbeatable, so just giving yourself a shot is worth it. And with Bradford starting to play well even before his injury, I think we'll be trending in the right direction if we follow this up with another win against the bills.


    Also the Cowboys had no shot at winning the super bowl last year but I'm sure you were excited to be in. (I know you're going to say you were one screwed up rule away from the NFC championship, but you were also one screwed up call from being sent home the week before by the Lions)

    Yeah, except the Giants had an exceptional defense both those years that they made runs, especially in 2007. Eagles defense likes to play good some times and other times they like to give up 40+ points. Also, Eli knows how to turn it up a notch in the post season. As overrated as he is, Bradford is no Eli lol there's levels to this s---.

    Cowboys entered the post season tied for the best record in the NFL lol. We were the only team in the playoffs that proved we could beat the defending champs (Seahawks) at home. What do you mean we had "no shot?" lol. The NFC East's division champ this year will be lucky to have a .500 record. The circumstances now are slightly different than last years to say the least.

    This is such a weird situation to be in, as a Pats fan.

    On one side, I totally believe, at full strength, we are the best in the NFL, as proven by the first ten weeks of the season.

    On the other, I don't really know how well they'll be clicking once these players come back.

    To see the special teams have two consecutive weeks with game changing, negative plays is alarming. I'm not used to seeing that, because they're usually excellent in coverage and returns.

    Matthew Slater was injured, and he's probably the best special teams player in the NFL, who is not a return man, but I can't believe that they have fallen apart like this.

    Defense only gave up two touchdowns, which is all I really want from them. I don't think they played great, but a lot of that was it was Collins' first game back, and Hightower will be back soon too.

    This is a frustrating loss, because, even though the Pats' offense was totally off, they still should've won this game.

    The first Brady INT was an awful decision. Amendola was double covered, there's no reason to throw that ball, plus it was on fourth down. Just take the points, and go up 17-14.

    Also, before that, at the half, why didn't the Pats just run the d--- clock out? They didn't go into that series wanting to score. They kept running the ball, then when they got some yardage, they went for it. I thought it was awful game management, and it led to the punt block for the touchdown.

    Then of course the punt return by Sproles, which I'm just shocked about. I know Philly is a great special teams' unit, but I really respect the Patriots on special teams. That is just so rare.

    That's 21 points off of huge mistakes by the Patriots, and 3 points missed off of a bad throw/bad call.

    Just awful.

    Plus, I'm still convinced McDaniels is overrated as f---, even though that trick play was awesome.

    Going back to that Denver game, if Harper catches the punt, you win the game.

    I really hate the idea that Edelman and Gronk are THIS important to this team's success. I don't believe that. These two games were completely winnable games that they gave away (no offense to Denver and Philly, because you guys did make the plays that you needed to).

    So f---ing frustrating, and now the Pats are the third seed. I do NOT want them to go to Denver.

    In the Eagles' defense, the reason that their defense is so shaky, is because Chip has ZERO clue on how to pace games, and he doesn't give his defense enough time to rest, since he uses that hurry up offense.

    So even if they go three and out, it's quicker than other team's 3 and outs.

    I think the big problem with Brady not having his main weapons is its bringing out the glaring weakness in the O-line. He's being forced to hold onto the ball longer and he's gotten wrecked because of it. Doesn't get any easier in Houston next Sunday night either.

    Eagles just cut Miles Austin. He's definitely underperformed this year but very odd move considering how thin they are at receiver.

    Eagles December 20th game against Arizona flexed from 1PM to 8PM. Only good thing about this is the Eagles always seem to step up big time for night home games. Hoping they wear their all black uniforms!
