Reid is the best coach the Eagles have had in the last 40 years, but I think he has worn out his welcome. These first 2 losses fall directly on him.
I've been watching Philly as per our discussions on McNabb.Quote:

That being said... he doesn't look like the McNabb of old to me. He has lost something... mobility wise. He seems to be getting sacked more.
Last night, he seemed to be missing a lot of open guys. Not too sure why that is.
Watching the games... I don't know how much of it is his lack of mobility compared to last year... and how much of it was things out of his control (i.e. the play calling that you guys have been discussing). But for whatever reason it is... one thing is clear... at least two games into the season he doesn't look the same. And even then... I know it's only two games in... he could throw for 4 TDs next week very easily.
Man I hate ESPN's babbling commentary during the game. Like I give a rat's *** what charles barkley has to say. I'd rather have Dennis Miller back then these clowns.
Yeah, and a big welcome to Emmitt Smith too. (lol)
I agree with the ESPN guys. But I actually like Charles Barkley... that dude is funny. I'd take him over any of those other clowns.Quote:

Its like E! meets football.. and it drives me ****ing nuts
Calvin Johnson is the real deal, Bolts suck, Donovan McNabb looks like a homo pirate with the shaved dome, Ocho Cinco needs some new celebrations, the Browns/Bengals game was friggin insane! I had the browns getting pummeled badly, Patriots - lights, Camera, Action....Moss is back, that will set a fire under T.O's *** cause he hates having lower stats than Moss...their matchup should be killer! one trying to outdo the other, when T.O can't do it he's gonna lose it and throw Romosexual under the bus and accuse everyone on the offensive side of the ball of being against him and trying to limit his success....do more situps and shoot more basketball in his driveway, repeat eagles episode....sign with raiders, catch 15 TD's from Russell and then retire.
I actually liked Miller, much better then kornholler. I hate these clowns. I turned off the sound. But the game loses some of the excitment. I wish they had just the noise on the field and down and distance info. Why do we need three idiots talking? One or two is enough talking heads.

The knee actually looks ok to me anyway, in both games he did a good job avoiding people and buying a little extra time.The biggest problem is Reid insists on throwing the ball 50 times a game (my initial post says 48, but after looking at the box score and adding the 3 sacks that would make it 51 passing plays). The defense simply knows the pass is coming, playaction is useless and the line is having problems pass blocking, because the D-line just does not repect the run and comes after us full bore on every play. Why not let the running game carry the load, last night there where huge holes the few times they did run, and Westbrook looked unstoppable.
Reid is going to ruin the guys career, if they throw 50 passes a game he will probably get injured again
