going for the eagles here impressed with them last time round against dallas they seem to have got it figured out and looking to make that push for the playoffs
He's not getting much protection to b fair. Eagles line hasn't been able to cope with the constant blitz - they're not used to it. Most teams just try to contain Vick and leave 2 linebackers back.

Lions packers chargers...i make it 3...they will probably not lose all of them games but you can count on them losing to a team they dont expect to lose to...every team will have a blip unless you are the packers.

Cutler seems to be getting better and no one can stop Forte
their D is also getting everyone fit and healthy again
a team to watch out for in December?
I think we also found out how bad the Eagles and Dallas (who they beat) are. Giants takes that division easy!
for the record I think the Bears are underratedCutler seems to be getting better and no one can stop Fortetheir D is also getting everyone fit and healthy againa team to watch out for in December?I think we also found out how bad the Eagles and Dalla
I wouldn't be backing the Gianst at 5/7 or whatever....
As it stands 8 games gone, Eagles trail the Giants by 3. During course of the next 4 matches.....Eagles beat Giants..... the gap is 2. Giants play away to Saints, 49ers, home to Giants...they could very easily lose all of them - I think they will. Eagles have Cardinals, Patriots (at home), Seattle...Concevably win 2, they are then level and re ahead of the Giants on the tie-break. Similar schedule last 4 games.
This thing is not over
Agree, about the Bears they are very underrated.

since when did the chargers need a running game...proved on sunday they can score for fun without one...bears will slip up against a poor team..what would they do without the main man forte

Apart from doing my whatsits on the game (I really thought the Eagles would murder the Bears) I thought it was a fascinating game.
Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie just can't cope with the move to the inside slot, and the Bears' study had clearly pointed that up - they bent him over all night and a team that was near the bottom of the NFL in third down completions went 9-16; effectively taking their choice over the middle.
I was worried about the Philly LBs, but thought that pressure would be enough - as it was, the Chicago front moved them about and protected Cutler nicely and let Forte run all over the Eagles.
On the other side of the rock, the Bears D were huge (Urlacher prompted a little man-love) and the rotten Chicago secondary shut down the Eagles wide - bizarre.
It was the old Phillys (blowing their 4th lead going into the final quarter) but frankly, they were lucky to keep it that close. They just disappear when the hammer comes down.
And that fake punt? WTF!?
Anyone got any spare change?

I know but he has only missed the playoffs 3 times i think since he joined...some of his calls in the redzone make eagle fans cringe...its what they done in pre season which annoys the fans...didnt strengthen in the right positions
