I want us to draft a ton of pass rushers like Philly has. It’s sefinitely a winning formula with a good offense.

Foles is making Wentz look like a product of the system rather than a MVP.

We match up Very well with them. There is no one on their roster that can cover Mike or Alvin.

The Eagles were one 4th down from not advancing last week and the NFC championship game was two plays from being in NOLA.

The Saints were good enough to win it all this year. Especially with a few injuries less.

Saints Play Calling is so predictable it may have been a blowout. Eagles offensively have called a great game.




If the Saints offense is so predictable, how are we a top 3 offense every season?

I’m not necessarily saying we weren’t. I just never expected Foles to kick it up a notch like he has. I know Foles isn’t as bad as many think but he’s playing well.

That Philly D is nasty.


I REALLY wanted Schwartz back when he got fired by the Lions. Dude is a great DC and has that fire. I thought he did okay as a Head Coach but the Lions haven't had a competent GM in ever so he could never get what he needed to make it work.

After what Allen pulled last week it still has me fuming. That stupid defend the sideline formation put our guys in a shite spot. After the first time we did it the Vikings knew EXACTLY what to call to counter it. Even if the tackle was being made the receiver may have still went out.

But Allen has been doing stupid stuff in those situations all year. How many third and longs have been converted on us because we either max blitz or try to play the sticks with maybe ONE freaking guy underneath.

But somehow on 3rd and short we did much better because we play a normal fricking defense and man up.

Philly was red hot tonight and probably would have beat any other team but I feel sure the Saints would have put up more of a fight than that.

It actually makes me feel better. Feeling like maybe we would have lost to philly makes me feel a lot better than thinking we would have rolled them.

We definitely put up a bigger fight than that shite tonight.

It is hard as hell to win on the road in the playoffs and for good reason.

Hopefully next season we stay healthy and build on the identity we have established and get home field throughout.

Yeah people saying we would have lost make me wonder.
Our line healthy can win any game
Armstead was hobbled in the Vikings game and did fine for the most part.
We had a team that should of been in the superbowl

We lost more than any team in terms of numbers and performed above par.

I was as upset as anyone else last week at this time, but it's just a game and we have a lot to be happy about.

If we can draft as well as we have the last two years we should be set for awhile. Hopefully our front office continues to shine also and make the proper moves to stay ahead.

It's not their defense that would worry me, it's their offense. They'd likely shred our defense, especially with those quick rpo's
