Guest webmasterofwrestlegame Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Nice run by McNabb to the 15 there.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Not even close to a catch. FG Time
Guest Askewniverse Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Shit. Akers missed the field goal.
CanadianChris Posted January 11, 2004 Author Report Posted January 11, 2004 Wow. This crowd is STUNNED.
Kahran Ramsus Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 That challenge was fantastic. Philly would have likely gotten 7, and now it ends up 7 the other way. Philly is shell shocked.
Spaceman Spiff Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 ::opens front door:: Pretty quiet in the Philly area.
Slayer Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Fucking A If we get a Colts/Packers SB, then for the first time in my life, I will not watch
Kahran Ramsus Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Fucking A If we get a Colts/Packers SB, then for the first time in my life, I will not watch Why do you hate the Colts?
MarvinisaLunatic Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Someone needs to be readying the Eagles Tombstone for that Playoff graveyard thread. And at this point I'd like to talk about Homefield Advantage. It is way overated in the NFL Playoffs. Just ask Ravens, Rams, Chiefs and soon to be Eagles fans about it. Thank you.
HarleyQuinn Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Ironically Marvin, it's helped the Patriots out quite a bit no?
Slayer Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Fucking A If we get a Colts/Packers SB, then for the first time in my life, I will not watch Why do you hate the Colts? Don't get me wrong, I'd root for Indy all the way, first on principle and second because I do like Dungy, but on the other hand, I really don't like Mr. Awshucks... something about him rubs me the wrong way
HarleyQuinn Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 IMO, the only teams that homefield advantage would help would be the Patriots, Packers and Bills, maybe Jets/Giants just for the weather.
Kahran Ramsus Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 IMO, the only teams that homefield advantage would help would be the Patriots, Packers and Bills, maybe Jets/Giants just for the weather. Don't forget Denver. And the Rams, not because they are unbeatable at home, but because they can't do dick on the road.
HarleyQuinn Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 late flag could negate a fabulous coverage play
The Ghost of bps21 Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 The only big advantage those places will get you is if a warm weather team has to come and play in snow. I don't think homefield was a big deal for the Pats yesterday...Tennessee had plenty of chances to win...but chose to be penalized instead.
Damaramu Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 That referee tumbling across the field and taking out an Eagle was great. I'm an Eagles fan....but I like the Packers...man this is my day of being apathetic. When you like both teams in the games.

It isn't really overrated, just that St Louis, KC & Philly really did not enter the playoffs in that good a shape and ran into hot teams. It happens. One thing we have noticed this year, the hotter team has won more than not (Carolina twice, Green Bay, New England & Indianapolis). Only the two AFC Wild Card games have gone the other way thus far, and in one of those it was the home team that blew it (the Ravens choked). You can't limp into the playoffs and expect to be successful. The Colts are an exception because they started their hot run in the playoffs, but they are certainly hot now. Momentum is extremely important.
tpww7 Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 I see Philly is blowing it as many predicted.
HarleyQuinn Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Colts vs Pats should be really interesting as both teams are on fire, Colts through the playoffs and Pats have won 15 straight now is it?
Slayer Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Andy Reid looks to be firmly cementing his role as a "So Close Yet So Far" Coach If Dungy wins the SB, Reid can have his spot
MarvinisaLunatic Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 IMO, the only teams that homefield advantage would help would be the Patriots, Packers and Bills, maybe Jets/Giants just for the weather. Don't forget Denver. And the Rams, not because they are unbeatable at home, but because they can't do dick on the road. Homefield for the Rams didn't help yesterday. And I remember no one giving the Panthers a chance to win that game either. If the Packers win, the Panthers will get Home Field advantage in the NFC Championship game, but I seriously doubt they can beat the Packers, even at home. The Packers have the whole "destined to win the Super Bowl" auora about them now.
2GOLD Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 If this game was in the VET, it would be 14-0 Eagles. This place isn't the Vet, hell it's not even really Philly. Too damn nice of a field to be scary to opponents. That and Philly fans have been turning on their team and QB pretty quick this season.
HarleyQuinn Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 Colts and Patriots(To a lesser extent) have that "Headed to the Super Bowl" aura as well
Kahran Ramsus Posted January 11, 2004 Report Posted January 11, 2004 I don't believe in those whole 'destiny' thing (why would God care about a football game?), but if the teams believe it they might end up making it true regardless. The same thing with the curses in baseball. The Red Sox and Cubs expect to lose, so they do. Once the slightest thing goes wrong (like Bartman), they think they are cursed and completely crumble.

I always thought fate handled destiny and that fate was female? Anyways, it's a whole mental thing like if you believe so strongly that you're sick, you will become sick that sort of deal. Not the best analogy but it's all I could come up with at the moment.

Damaramu Posted January 12, 2004 Report Posted January 12, 2004 Well this is still anybody's ball game. I'm pulling for the Eagles. But if the Pack wins....eh....I won't mind. If the Pack wins though then I want them to take it all.
