Phi @ Car: This game looks like a keeper, don’t it? I see two solid D’s taking on patchwork O’s that get results. I can’t help thinking this will be a close, hard-fought game that ends with me snoring on my sofa because I had three scotches/beers too many. Carolina has a strong pass D and Philly is without Agholor(?) (pronounced “Oh-Ver-Ray-Ted”) and a banged-up Cooper. The Panthers run game is strong but the Eagles D should be up to the task. However Ginn, Cotchery and Funchess constitute a WRBC (wide receiver by committee) that gets things done. Maybe it’s time to take Cam a bit more seriously-he seems to have reined in his worst instincts and put it all together. Also, he does have an Olsen at TE-a guy who no one seems to have an answer for if he’s targeted enough times.
It’s Finally Here-Your Sunday Night Thread
Hey, it’s a close game! Has it actually been worth watching?
Only recently
Define “worth watching.”
Probably no.
This is getting quite irritating.
Quit wearing underwear. It worked for me.
I wonder if Zach Ertz real first name is Richard?
Seems like the Flag Gods haven’t been appeased by this game
Hey at least it’s not Hit the Quan.
Wrong reply
So the worst part of my day painting was this fucking song was stuck in my head the entire time. I should add it is still stuck in my head
MILK & CHEESE SIGHTING
The iggles are somehow going to win this game arent they?
Hush you.
There are two finishes under Kelly.
A) Eagles come out like hot fire, rack up 40 in the first quarter, and lose by 1 on the last play of the game.
B) Eagles come out like dick, but eventually wear out the defense and run all over them at the end.
Excellent movie.

Lions v Chiefs next week in London.The Boston Massacre, pressing our sailors, and burning the White House aren’t criminal enough for the Brits to deal with these games .
What about making women think Hugh Grant was attractive?
Andie McDowell’s speech at the end of Four Weddings canceled out any issues America should have with Hugh Grantt.
He’s just…not an attractive man. There’s a certain sort of Brit who doesn’t age well, but we’re still supposed to find them sexy. No thanks. I don’t like the twisty face. You shouldn’t look like that if you haven’t had a stroke.
Yes, but that accent.
/Says Hollywood.
I still stand by the horror that was Andie McDowell’s speech. First saw the movie as a horny16 year old boy. When the movie ended, I would have jumped into bed with all of the “attractive” women, including Duckface. But, I had minimal interest in McDowell.
So I recently learned that I count as a Millennial and that I’m not quite a 1%er for my age group, but my salary puts me solidly in the 2%er category. Life is different after getting a PhD. I used to be poor and surrounded by some of the smartest people in the world, certainly much smarter than me. Now I’m comparatively rich and have to dumb down my conversation or add background when I use complicated terms like “microbiome.” I suspect I’ve been kind of an arrogant dick for the past few months.
Can girls be dicks?
Just askin’.
At least you’re aware enough to notice. I’m trapped in classes with self-absorbed participation trophy fetuses. It brings out the raging old man in me.
I went to high school at a math/science/tech magnet school. I was plenty arrogant as a teenager, but I was surrounded by other teens who were just as arrogant. I realized it wasn’t really fair of me to be irritated by those guys when I was doing the exact same thing.
Iwent to one of those high schools, but it was a general public school. My boss is a born again Christian, I am a confirmed atheist since I was 13., and I only go o church/ emple for weddings Bnei Mitzvahs. I managed to school him on scripture a couple of months ago. He still felt that Christianity had no relation to Judaism.
“He read a book on Walter Payton”
I call bullshit.

Is the Eagles scheme just wrong for him or did DeMarco Murray turn into Trent Richardson?
I’ve heard that Murray is used to an I-formation power-running scheme in Dallas, and he’s in a lateral single-back/shotgun scheme in Philly. Whether that explains all of it, I dunno.
He’s had his moments, so the ability is still there. I suspect it’s a scheme thing.
I have 6-7 days of unused sick leave that don’t roll over at the end of the year. Should I just start calling in hungover every Monday? I suspect my boss might notice the pattern.
Alternate Fridays and Mondays.
Mix in some Tuesdays and Fridays and you’re golden.
He didn’t “make a play” Huff’s dumb ass just dropped it.
“Flick the bean” is something you could do as a tourist in Chicago.
After living in Australia for two years, seeing commercials for American restaurants on football broadcasts brings out my inner fat man every time.
My outer fat man continues to weep.

I am not looking at a national ad campaign featuring Julian Edelman, because if I were everything in the universe would have gone utterly insane then imploded into a new singularity from which a newer, much more horrible universe will arise.
Edelman shilling Puma feels so right.
Well folks looks like we gots us a game here now.
Now Byron Maxwell made a play? This game should be played on Halloween.
welp
Well now…
Maxwell….caption???
so…hate…directv…die…
That little Manning with the clothin’ and the whinin’.
Yeah buddy, that’s how he sang.
That little Manning has a shitty actor.
That little Manning has no debonair.
I want my, I want my, I want my old neck back.
The Eagles aren’t just bad; they find a way to make you hope longer than you should. That’s a special kind of bad.
Yup. I only gave up on the Skins season last week, mainly because of the clusterfuck that is the NFC East, and the whole “making it to overtime” thing. I should have stuck with my pre-season instincts. They’re actually exactly where I predicted in my preview, with the slight difference that they beat the Rams instead of the Giants.
com…pet…ence?
Cam…pet…ence. It can be Peter King’s new byword for him.
I have hit pause on Doctor Who too many times so I am still 20 minutes away from watching the game again, but I refuse to believe one of these teams showed competence.
No holding call….amazing.
Way to not fuck up for a change, Jordan.
Zymm,
Does anyone refer to your Mayor as Rahm, his is a Doctor, Emmanuel.
/Channeling old joke about the first Jewish President.
You’re giving Chicago politics more credit for witticism than it merits.
Serious Q, how is he as a Mayor?
I hate him. I haven’t changed my residency from MD in the 6 or 7 years I’ve lived here, but I’m changing it ASAP so I can vote against him next election. Because who doesn’t LOVE sketchy parking meter contracts, Ventra, closed public schools, much higher property taxes, and a surge in violent crime?
I thought the parking meter deal was little Daly.
And I thought Rudy after 9/11 was bad.
It was Daly 2, but Rahm confirmed/upheld it.
Ahhhh, and so much of the country thinks of NYC as the greatest den of iniquity.
Grew up just outside of Chicago many years ago. The politics of the time are what coined the term “Windy City”. It has nothing to do with meteorology.
If only it was just wind. There’s golf-ball sized hail in local politics nowadays.
First class on an Emirates A380 is the ultimate goal of the international traveler.
I wish I could have flown on the Concord, just once.
I aspire to Raffles Class on Singapore Air.
It has the most beautiful string of pearls I’ve ever seen.
Also, I’m not the biggest fan of Airbus products.
I once flew free on a Navy P-3 Orion through a thunderstorm and the co-pilot got up and vomited in the back of the plane. I doubt I could ever top that.
My friend… his dad was a pilot for the airline, when they were just starting out.
He has had some amazing flights.
His dad has some great stories, too.
A team from the NFC East and a team from the AFC South will each make the playoffs.
After the display of the Texan’s defense today, JJ Watt should pull his commercials.
But he GETS IT. He WORKS HARD. He is an INSPIRATIONAL GUY. He BRINGS HIS LUNCHBOX. He’s a TEAM PLAYER.
HE LIVES IN A FRIGGIN CABIN YOU GUYS
The most stringent protection of the freedom of speech would not protect a quarterback yelling “Fire!” in a crowded stadium.
Worst pump up music ever.
I watch too much 30 for 30. Every time I see a fat guy TD, I get a little sad and think of Marcus Dupree.
Though he wasn’t a fat guy when he scored his TDs. That was a sad one fo sho.
He was always big, with a tendency to fat when not working out. Which feels like the category Tolbert is in, though I don’t know his non-football life.
I get happy because I think of “The Replacements”.
“I’m wiry.”
Goddammit. That effort reminded me of DeShaun Foster’s second effort TD that buried the Eagles in the 2003 NFC Championship Game.
Not that I’m bitter or despondent or hateful or anything.
You wouldn’t be a fan of an NFC East team if you weren’t some combination of bitter, despondent and hateful. I’ve buried at least one heart at the Battle of RG3s Knee.
Haha! I like Tolbert. I also like the Eagles Eagling. That was a fun TD.
It’s for different reasons, but I’m 100.9% with you on savoring Eagles derp.
Mike Tolbert says FUCK YOU WIP.
Beautiful display of tackling there.
BowlingBallSecondEffortDOWN!
Fat Guy TD?
verily
Raise your hand if you think you could eat this in one sitting without dying :

I’d give it my best…but death would be imminent.
Me!
Oh wait, you said without dying.
Hell yes. But it would be two meals. Wouldn’t be able to get up between meals.

Back spasms, or what Aaron Rodgers calls…foreplay.
The Walking Dead had more deaths tonight than this game has had turnovers.
Chip: Stop shooting yourselves in the foot!
Eagles fans: You first.
Whoo. Undertaker entrance. Match shouldn’t start til the 4th quarter.
