Week 2 Discussion Thread

[BeerBaron]

If Matt Ryan was an elite QB, it would have been called.

I don't even think it's that. Tom Brady had guys rolling into him low repeatedly...no flags. They enhanced that rule because of someone sliding into Tom Brady low. No flags.

[dunagan15]

here we go again with the horrid interior Falcons line.

[BeerBaron]

here we go again with the horrid interior Falcons line.

Welcome to the world of wondering when, not if, your QB is going to get hurt because your o-line is terrible. It's a pretty crappy place to be.

[Go_Eagles77]

That might be Celek's first catch of the season...

Criminally underused.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Gotta capitalize on this field position. Good work Weems.

[Breed]

That might be Celek's first catch of the season...

Criminally underused.

Tell me about it. Vick should go to him a lot more like he did with Alge Crumpler.

[BeerBaron]

Awful tackling...another theme this season. Weems is not a big guy, yet he's running through tacklers like he's Mike Alstott.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Welcome to the world of wondering when, not if, your QB is going to get hurt because your o-line is terrible. It's a pretty crappy place to be.

I never thought that I'd actually be missing Harvey Dahl's pass blocking.

[thenewfeature06]

I mean I guess he is but Jackson and Maclin are better options anyway but he is right after them probably.

[thenewfeature06]

My boy Garrett Reynolds got housed!

[dunagan15]

Welcome to the world of wondering when, not if, your QB is going to get hurt because your o-line is terrible. It's a pretty crappy place to be.

Ya just didnt think McClure and Dahl were that amazing of players in general, but apparently 2 new starters are completely awful.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Look at old man Gonzalez getting shifty.

[dunagan15]

I never thought that I'd actually be missing Harvey Dahl's pass blocking.

I lol'd. Sooooo true

[dunagan15]

Is Turner running well or is the Iggles run defense awful?

[tjsunstein]

I do need Matt Ryan to have a good game for fantasy purposes.

But Turner is going to be their offense tonight. Controlling the clock and keeping Vick off the field.

[Breed]

We're letting the little fat guy run all over us.

[BeerBaron]

Remember when Turner had the nickname "Burner?" Haha...he's so slow now.

[Raiderz4Life]

The Eagles Run D doesn't exist.

[Go_Eagles77]

Now I see why the brilliant wide 9 defensive scheme isn't so widely used in the NFL...

[gpngc]

Is Turner running well or is the Iggles run defense awful?

The Eagles run D is going to be very bad this year.

But this is a passing/3rd down league so it probably won't matter that much.

[tjsunstein]

Is Turner running well or is the Iggles run defense awful?
The Eagles run defense is terrible but apparently you don't need LBs and S in that scheme when you have a very good rotation at DL and those 3 CBs.

[gpngc]

I love that strategy - Make Samuel tackle. So smart.

[thenewfeature06]

Julio head huntin.. I like it.

Matthews starts?! why is that and where did Ernie Sims go again?

[BeerBaron]

Goal line offense, yet another thing that sucks in the NFL this year...

[dunagan15]

Roddyzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!

[Go_Eagles77]

**** me...

[tjsunstein]

Thank you, Matt Ryan.
And Turner for not scoring.
Great catch by Roddy White.

[diesel]

Goal line offense, yet another thing that sucks in the NFL this year...

Especially when you are passing like Dallas.

[JRTPlaya21]

There we go Roddy!!!

[Breed]

**** me...

Only if you do me first...

[BeerBaron]

NO! NO AL MICHAELS!! NOT every scoring play is reviewed.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v613/BeerBaron/sproles3.jpg

Anyway...Falcons look a lot better this week. Turner is going to have one hell of a game.

[Breed]

we will still win by 2 possessions.

[dunagan15]

NO! NO AL MICHAELS!! NOT every scoring play is reviewed.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v613/BeerBaron/sproles3.jpg

Anyway...Falcons look a lot better this week. Turner is going to have one hell of a game.

So far yes we do. At least this early we do, Last week was horrid, we didnt look even remotely like a playoff team.

[Go_Eagles77]

I love Dion Lewis but he is absolute garbage as a return man.

[Breed]

Mike Vick #1 overall pick! How about your starting QB?

[FuzzyGopher]

The SNF announcers are like the all hyperbole team, it gets annoying after awhile.

[Go_Eagles77]

So... much... trickery

[BeerBaron]

Andy Reid had to use a time machine to go back and get that play.

[Breed]

Our o-line needs to protect tthe 100million dollar man!

[gpngc]

That's a good quarter for ATL. They want to make this game as short as possible and keep Vick away from the ball for as long as possible.

So...

A.J. Green today?

Daniel Thomas? What the hell was he doing during the preseason? Like seriously wtf?

And MATT ******* HASSELBECK!

Goat of the week is Tolbert. That fumble KILLED them.

[Go_Eagles77]

Our o-line needs to protect tthe 100million dollar man!

What's to worry about when we have studs like Evan Mathis, Jason Kelce, and Kyle DeVan manning the interior OL?

[dunagan15]

I still have no idea when we only rush 4 how the hell some1 is so wide open 15 yards down the field, happens so many times to this D.

[Go_Eagles77]

McCoy is so damn shifty.

[Breed]

LeSean is soooo elusive!

[tjsunstein]

we will still win by 2 possessions.
You won't win period with that run defense. Atlanta can afford to play bend but don't break defense knowing they will control the clock and ball.

[tjsunstein]

Brent Grimes has made some very solid tackles tonight already for the CB position. Is he usually a good tackler?

[Breed]

You won't win period with that run defense. Atlanta can afford to play bend but don't break defense knowing they will control the clock and ball.

you guys got lucky in the playoffs

[Go_Eagles77]

Are you kidding me DeSean?

[tjsunstein]

you guys got lucky in the playoffs
Very thought out response. Keep dwelling on that game and let me know where it gets you.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

I finally found Ray Edwards!

[tjsunstein]

Blown coverage by one of those two on Jackson.

[Breed]

Go Eagles77 help me out with that Packers fan...

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Brent Grimes has made some very solid tackles tonight already for the CB position. Is he usually a good tackler?

Yes. He always gets a hat in there.

[Breed]

TOUCHDOWN!! Suck my uncircumsized dick!

[dunagan15]

Man crazy, Falcons leaving someone wide open...why am I not shocked

[tjsunstein]

Go Eagles77 help me out with that Packers fan...
Have you been stumped? I don't get it. Nothing I've said regarding the Eagles has been outlandish.

[FuzzyGopher]

TOUCHDOWN!! Suck my uncircumsized dick!

Pics or s t f u.

[Breed]

Have you been stumped? I don't get it. Nothing I've said regarding the Eagles has been outlandish.

Dude, stop trash talking. See you in the playoffs, again.

[Complex]

Desean Jackson has dropped 3 TDs so far this season.

[Go_Eagles77]

Are you ******** me?

[ElectricEye]

Weird ass play for Julio there.

[Breed]

Pics or s t f u.

Not trying to get banned, but i'm a amateur porn star. My name is Brian Pumper, just do a Google search.

[ElectricEye]

Yeah, instant overturn.

[dunagan15]

catch the damn ball with your hands

[ATLDirtyBirds]

That ball has to be caught Mr. Jones.

[tjsunstein]

Dude, stop trash talking. See you in the playoffs, again.
No one was trash talking. Until now. See you in Lambeau this time. Just hope you can make it out of the wildcard round first this year.

[SickwithIt1010]

Very thought out response. Keep dwelling on that game and let me know where it gets you.

Dont listen to him, I watched the damn game...we beat ourselves. I tip my cap to everything the packers are doing right now, prolly my 2nd favorite team to be honest. Love me some Aaron Rodgers.

[FuzzyGopher]

Not trying to get banned, but i'm a amateur porn star. My name is Brian Pumper, just do a Google search.

I loved your work in Weapons of Ass Destruction 2.

[mau5]

That ball has to be caught Mr. Jones.

It's fine they can draft a WR who can catch the ball with their first round pick next year

[Breed]

No one was trash talking. Until now. See you in Lambeau this time. Just hope you can make it out of the wildcard round first this year.

What is a "packer " any way? What's the purpose of a "cheese head?"

[Breed]

I loved your work in Weapons of Ass Destruction 2.

Thank you very much,... I appreciate it...

[SickwithIt1010]

What is a "packer " any way? What's the purpose of a "cheese head?"

Youre not really gonna start talking trash about their mascot now are you?

[Breed]

I loved your work in Weapons of Ass Destruction 2.

Thank you very much,... I appreciate it...

[tjsunstein]

What is a "packer " any way? What's the purpose of a "cheese head?"
Nothing Google can't answer.

[Go_Eagles77]

Hahahaha. He tried to throw at Nnamdi.

[SickwithIt1010]

What is a "packer " any way? What's the purpose of a "cheese head?"

Youre not really gonna start talking trash about their mascot now are you?

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Hardy har har.

[OzTitan]

What is a "packer " any way? What's the purpose of a "cheese head?"

A SuperBowl winning team, evidently.

[tjsunstein]

If you don't know the history behind the Packers name, you're seriously lacking NFL knowledge.

[tjsunstein]

Vick has too much time back there.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Really liking all the pass rush we're getting right now.

[gpngc]

When will Jason Peters catch a TD? He must.

[tjsunstein]

Ray Edwards sighting.

[dunagan15]

Vick has too much time back there.

Get used to it. Van Gorder doesnt have a blitz in our entire playbook. We get enough pressure with 4 can't you see?

[Breed]

If you don't know the history behind the Packers name, you're seriously lacking NFL knowledge.

according to Google "they were named after an idian packing company"...

The term "Packer" doesn't sound fierce one bit.....

[Go_Eagles77]

Dagnabbit.

[FuzzyGopher]

Collinsworth needs to remove Vick's balls from his mouth.

[Breed]

Collinsworth needs to remove Vick's balls from his mouth.

Maybe Vick likes it...

[tjsunstein]

according to Google "they were named after an idian packing company"...

The term "Packer" doesn't sound fierce one bit.....
Stop trolling.

Guess what the Packers have that the Eagles don't? I'll give you a hint. It's a Super Bowl trophy. Multiple actually. They were named after Vince Lombardi. Do you know who he is? No? Well, you see he was this coach of the fierce Packers...

[Ness]

according to Google "they were named after an idian packing company"...

The term "Packer" doesn't sound fierce one bit.....

Nether does my team's name...and we've had a lot of success.

[Breed]

Is their any white CBs in the NFL, practice squad, or anything?

[Go_Eagles77]

Run defense has shored up a little bit.

[Breed]

Get sacked Matt Ryan! You're terrible!

[BeerBaron]

I'm sure the "wide 9" would be just dandy if you had some enforcer-type linebackers behind them to sure up the holes.

I'm not sure what I'd call the Eagles linebackers, but "enforcers" would not be high up on the list.

[dunagan15]

God. Here we go looking terrible again...

[Go_Eagles77]

Let's not risk our best playmaker on a punt return, let's just risk our best all-around WR instead...

Yeah that makes sense.

[Breed]

Let's not risk our best playmaker on a punt return, let's just risk our best all-around WR instead...

Yeah that makes sense.

I still think Vick should be on punt return.

[Go_Eagles77]

See what happens when you get Celek involved Andy?

Edit: Uh-oh.

[BeerBaron]

Vick hit low and ugly....ughhh...I hate hits like that.

And Celek is the one who is hurt.

That's two like that on Brady and one now on Vick...the NFL isn't calling those low hits apparently.

[Breed]

See what happens when you get Celek involved Andy?

He gets injured....

[ATLDirtyBirds]

This isn't looking good.

[Go_Eagles77]

Steve Smith's first catch as an eagle.

[Ness]

So is Steve Smith's knee fine? So weird how he just vanished from the Giants roster like that and casually signed with the Eagles.

[Breed]

This isn't looking good.

Yes, and i love it!

Edit:

Atlanta's defensive coordinator looks like a loser

[Go_Eagles77]

So is Steve Smith's knee fine? So weird how he just vanished from the Giants roster like that and casually signed with the Eagles.

Giants thought he'd be out half the year and he was active week 1.

[Complex]

Who has a better arm than Vick? he makes it look so easy

[Go_Eagles77]

What the ****.

[FuzzyGopher]

Wtf was that?

[dannyz]

Ray Edward Fumble return.

[Breed]

Ray Edwards still sucks, our o-line is god awful.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

**** YES!!!!!!!!!!!1

[cmarq83]

my god ray edwards is slooooooooooow

[Ness]

Whoa. DeSean Jackson just went on Flash on Edwards.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Ray needs to get that piano off the back.

[Go_Eagles77]

Huge break for Atlanta. Damn.

[Breed]

Who has a better arm than Vick? he makes it look so easy

Best QB in the NFL.

[dunagan15]

As happy as I am we got the fumble and return, Im still just as pissed nobody made an effort to run down the field to help him and block, should have been a walk in TD but instead people just got lazy, such bs.

[Complex]

Who was the fullback or running back that was chasing Edwards?

[LonghornsLegend]

How bout that, Jerry making a name for himself after being a let down so far as a 1st rder. Glad he's healthy now.

[Breed]

Who was the fullback or running back that was chasing Edwards?

Ronnie Brown

[Ness]

As happy as I am we got the fumble and return, Im still just as pissed nobody made an effort to run down the field to help him and block, should have been a walk in TD but instead people just got lazy, such bs.

I don't think anyone was going to beat Jackson's straight line pursuit to Edwards.

[Raiderz4Life]

lmao edwards gettin hunted down by D-Jax was awesome

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Really need a TD here.

[Raiderz4Life]

Best QB in the NFL.

Only you believe that....and even then I'm not so sure you truly 100% do

[Complex]

Ronnie Brown

He is so slow now, he used to run a 4.3.

[Hurricanes25]

Wow. Sick catch by Tony G if it stands.

[Breed]

Play will be overturned.

[Go_Eagles77]

That wasn't a catch.

[ElectricEye]

Tony Gonzalez god damn. Not sure he got two in though...

[mau5]

No TD imo...

[dunagan15]

TD called on the field may keep this a TD

[dunagan15]

I dont think there is enough to overturn

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Not indisputable.

[ChiFan24]

That's a TD.

[Raiderz4Life]

plz overturn it. No TD

[ElectricEye]

Looked like he had it.

[Complex]

That was nice catch regardless.

[vidae]

Tony G still has it!

[ElectricEye]

Just a ridiculous catch.

[LonghornsLegend]

I hope Jason Witten plays as long and effective as Tony G still is. He is never gonna fall off.

[dunagan15]

Thank god. Lucky turn around, now can we keep the momentum.

[Jvig43]

Such a sick grab by Gonz.

[Raiderz4Life]

Amazing catch. Was hoping it wasn't but it was great.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Tony G still has it!

Still money on goal line and 3rd and mediums. Speed is just completely shot. Looks a bit quicker this year though.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Is there any defense in the league that has no problem giving up so many completions?

[Raiderz4Life]

Lovin steve smith on the eagles. Philly my no 2 team lol

[Raiderz4Life]

Vick you idiot.

[Go_Eagles77]

WTF Vick...

[FuzzyGopher]

Nice ball security retardo.

[M.O.T.H.]

So who gets the box of condoms this week? I'm assuming Cutler, from what I watched of that game? Dallas sacked Smith 6 times.

[JRTPlaya21]

Hahahah best QB in the NFL huh

[dunagan15]

would be amazing to get a FG here

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Saw that coming a mile away.

[Go_Eagles77]

Nnamdiiiizzzz.

[Raiderz4Life]

lol NNAMDI!!

[dunagan15]

wow...His INTs this season have been so horrid.

[dunagan15]

Doesnt really help when every single OLman gets absolutely blown up.

[Go_Eagles77]

Are you kidding me?

[FuzzyGopher]

Their kicker is built like an 8th grader.

[Raiderz4Life]

Philly y'all aint got Jano

[ElectricEye]

He's no Seabass.

[Pat Sims 90]

wow...His INTs this season have been so horrid.

Thats what happens when u have Bob Bratkowski on your offense staff.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Any reason why we didn't put someone back to return that?

[Breed]

Philly y'all aint got Jano

You're right, we have Vick instead....

[dunagan15]

Any reason why we didn't put someone back to return that?

Looks like we were going for all out block

[Raiderz4Life]

You're right, we have Vick instead....

The guy who just fumbled? Cost philly a shot at scoring before half? That the one you talkin bout?

[ATLDirtyBirds]

This run run run stuff would be a good idea if your defense could shut the Eagles down. But we can't. Gotta stick with passing.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

I feel your pain Bears fans. I really do.

[Go_Eagles77]

Jason Babin's 3rd sack of the year.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Come on Matt, let your WR try to make a play. You aren't picking up 15 yards.

[Go_Eagles77]

Trent Cole, Cullen Jenkins and Jason Babin a combined 7 sacks in just over a game and a half this season. I love it.

[Go_Eagles77]

Son. I am disappoint.

[cmarq83]

Best QB in the NFL!

[ElectricEye]

Real poor decision there by Vick.

[FuzzyGopher]

Damn who is 42, that was a pathetic tackle attempt.

[descendency]

Hahahah best QB in the NFL huh

What about Cam Newton?

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Kelvin Hayden was such a great move for us. Such an improvement on Christopher Owens.

[Go_Eagles77]

Best QB in the NFL!

Please don't make this a thing. One guy said it.

[dunagan15]

How did the Eagles not challenge lol?

[Raiderz4Life]

Damn who is 42, that was a pathetic tackle attempt.

that was beyond pathetic.

[descendency]

I wonder if Vince Young is waking up from his "Dream Team"

[ElectricEye]

The NFL reviews that one but not the Sproles play....

[ATLDirtyBirds]

This replay **** needs to go to ******* hell.

[Jvig43]

Best QB in the NFL!

I can't keep up with all of those around here. Which one are we talking about now?

[Raiderz4Life]

Can't stop the run to save their lives and Tony G is bending em over.

[PACKmanN]

how to beat the eagles

1. blitz vick
2. attack their lbers and safeties with your TEs and RBs

[Raiderz4Life]

I can't keep up with all of those around here. Which one are we talking about now?

Breed keeps claiming Vick is the best QB in the NFL.

[Go_Eagles77]

OK time to stop ******* around.

[Go_Eagles77]

Wow **** you. That ball hit the ground.

[Go_Eagles77]

Maclin > Jackson.

[Raiderz4Life]

Nice! McCoy and Maclin beast mode

[dunagan15]

Classis Falcons defense...god this gets old.

[dunagan15]

shocker...

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Seriously Matt? ******* serious?

[shinzo123]

this eagles secondary is a DREAM TEAM

[Go_Eagles77]

Hahaha holy **** I love our CBs.

[Raiderz4Life]

wtf happened to matt ryan

[ElectricEye]

That Ryan to Julio connection ain't looking quite right yet.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Mike Smith, come on. Wasting a ******* timeout now?

[bantx]

its a catch

[dunagan15]

Here comes the Mike Smith obvious challenge, I dont think hes ever won a single challenge in his 3 years

[Breed]

Maclin > Jackson.

Kinda agree...

[yo123]

Horrible challenge.

[dunagan15]

wtf happened to matt ryan

Apparently we have the worst QB coach known to man, and pretty much has regressed Matt back to year 1

[gpngc]

What the **** are they challenging this for? One of the worst challenges ever. At least wait a little so someone watching the broadcast can tell you not to waste a timeout. They were changing to offense, about 4 replays would have been shown by the time Vick got there ready WTF.

[dunagan15]

What the **** are they challenging this for? One of the worst challenges ever. At least wait a little so someone watching the broadcast can tell you not to waste a timeout. They were changing to offense, about 4 replays would have been shown by the time Vick got there ready WTF.

He does this with every obvious challenge. He just does it do it, or so it seems, he has yet to ever win.

[Go_Eagles77]

Jason Peters having a dominating game.

LeSean McCoy <3

DeSean Jackson can block.

[Breed]

LeSeasn McCoy

[PACKmanN]

how does Jackson block you...

[Raiderz4Life]

Shady ftw!

[shinzo123]

how does Jackson block you...

by holding LOL

[dunagan15]

Man, we should keep rushing 4, its really working Van Gorder, I mean seriously, its keeping us in the game.

[dunagan15]

how does Jackson block you...

Did you see who he is blocking? Grimes is 5'8 170...

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Man, we should keep rushing 4, its really working Van Gorder, I mean seriously, its keeping us in the game.

That, and maybe Ice could cool it on the picks.

[Raiderz4Life]

Did you see who he is blocking? Grimes is 5'8 170...

Jackson is maybe 2 inches taller and about the same weight though

[descendency]

Howard Mudd, shoulder bumps Shady Mccoy. He'll be having hip surgery during the bye week.

[mau5]

Gotta say....I am very surprised by how great Shady has turned out to be. I really didn't like him too much coming out of Pitt.

[Go_Eagles77]

******* Danny Watkins sitting on a gatorade cooler in full pads. Love to see that...

[TimmG6376]

Is Ryan shell shocked? Not looking good.

[PACKmanN]

Did you see who he is blocking? Grimes is 5'8 170...

5`10 183 v. 5`10 175...

where did 5`8 170 come from

and this is jackson that we`re speaking of

[FuzzyGopher]

Ryan is playing scared now.

[Raiderz4Life]

ATL O-line sucks ass.

[gpngc]

Jesus this Philly dream team secondary.........

[Complex]

Gotta say....I am very surprised by how great Shady has turned out to be. I really didn't like him too much coming out of Pitt.

Doesn't hurt to have Vick at QB, he makes all his RB look better then they are.

[gpngc]

The Falcons are extremely lucky to even be in this game lol.

[Go_Eagles77]

**** you Dunta Robinson.

[Complex]

Do the packers and eagles play each other? the eagles are 4 deep at CB and the packers are deep at WR.

[mau5]

Ryan is so meh.

I really don't see him ever solidifying himself as a top 10 QB like so many expected after his rookie year

[Hines]

What a cheap shot.

[FuzzyGopher]

I smell a suspension coming.

[MetSox17]

Dunta Robinson is a thug

[shinzo123]

HAHAHAHA Dunta smiled a lil bit.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

This game is over.

[yo123]

That looked like Ortiz's headbutt from the fight last night.

[dunagan15]

5`10 183 v. 5`10 175...

where did 5`8 170 come from

and this is jackson that we`re speaking of

There is no way in hell Grimes is 5'10 lol

[LonghornsLegend]

Matty Ice is getting happy feet out there. He doesn't look comfortable at all.

[Raiderz4Life]

wtf!! no penalty on that hit??

edit: missed the flag nvm

[Go_Eagles77]

Holy **** what a douche.

[gpngc]

Ryan is so meh.

I really don't see him ever solidifying himself as a top 10 QB like so many expected after his rookie year

He's really only great when his running game is working.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

The Falcons are extremely lucky to even be in this game lol.


If it wasn't for that fumble when the Eagles where inside the 10, it would be a blowout.

[dunagan15]

And back to the years of sucking balls

[thenewfeature06]

Dunta Robinson goin' ham

[Go_Eagles77]

Really Avant? Really?

[Raiderz4Life]

Used to like Dunta Robinson back in his Houston days.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Here comes a safety.

[Go_Eagles77]

Excellent punt by the rookie.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Catch the ******* football Julio.

[Go_Eagles77]

That's right, we have DRC too, bitches.

[gpngc]

Really Avant? Really?

Lofton completely obstructed his vision. It wasn't an easy catch as it seemed at first glance.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

And **** Sam Baker.
