Pre-Game Skins @ Eagles

[JonBlaze]

Let Desean beast out in revenge mode.

I think the division is yours, fans of the politically incorrect team from Washington whose name shall not be uttered.

Philly's already mediocre secondary may be without both starting corners.

Bradford is actually playing some of his best ball, but the team is mediocre at best and Washington is playing much better right now overall.

Philly shocked me by beating the Patriots and may shock me again, but at this point beating DC would be a major upset. That loss in the first matchup looms very large right now.

Stop with the faux bullshit, iggs. You know you expect the Eagles to be ready and to get down. I expect the Redskins to be ready and to get down and if the Eagles aren't ready. I hope my boys break their foot off in your boys asses like a natural man.

Half was sports and half was being young and dumb.

Boy, I've been there......my wife thinks I still am there. I've broken my ribs 3 times. In fact, I've broken so many bones I've lost count. I broke my lower leg aka Thiesmann. But the most intense pain I've ever had was kidney stone. Hit me like I had been shot. Thought my appendix exploded. When if finally passed it, the stone was smaller than a grain of sand. That little thing brought me to my knees. Literally.

I have heard they hurt.

 

[Caliskinsfan]

I've heard they can be likened to giving birth . Long way to go for that grain of sand.

the thing about the eagles is their tempo . it always gives us fits on defense usually at the end . if the offense comes out and lays an egg we are in trouble

its a national TV game as well which means curtains for the skins

all i am saying as i said before dallas was dont underestimate them . they beat the pats and they demolished us

I think the primetime TV issue is a red herring. We've won before on primetime when we were bad (e.g., MNF against the Cowboys last year). And the Eagles didn't beat the Pats, the Pats ended up giving that game to the Eagles.

Interesting stat: the Eagles haven't scored more than two offensive TDs in regulation (i.e., not including OT) since October 11 when they beat the Saints.

The Eagles may also have to start Jaylen Watkins (who was just signed of the Bills practice squad) and EJ Biggers at corner, and play Denzel Jenkins at slot. If so, it might be a long day for them.

Of course, this is a division game and our beloved Redskins are known for laying eggs when the pressure is on. But somehow, I think this is different.

Honestly I don't expect a win. I think the Eagles are in trouble. Redskins playing much better right now.

Actually, homey, the Skins are really bad when it comes to prime time games. 4-18 or some shit over their last 22 prime time games. One of those four though came in 2014 on a Saturday night against the Eagles, and just so happens to be the last time Griffin QBed the Skins to a victory.

I know the track record on our primetime games. My point is that we were bad on those primetime games not because of primetime but because were bad period. We're a different team now and that should put our prior primetime record in a different perspective. We, of course, could lay a big egg on Saturday night, but I wouldn't attribute that to anything more than egg-laying than anything else.

Eagles Starting NT Bennie Logan out rest of the season he was their best run defender

I can dig it. I fully expect the Skins to come out red to go.

Yeah, let's hope for a W and the division crown. At least we can say that on Christmas, we were the undisputed leaders of the NFC East. Can't take that away from us.

Forgot about the Eagles organization playing 'name games' on the Skins name last time we met.

Your last comment was why I voted the Eagles game in the poll here on which was your favorite win. Tampa may have been a historic comeback but the Eagles win meant more.

As for me I think this game can go either way. I've been impressed by how the Eagles turned their season around and as mentioned we always seem to lay an egg in these national TV night games. Until that changes, and it just happened again a few weeks ago, I just can't pick Washington

Looks like Eric Rowe has miraculously cleared concussion protocol and will likely play. Funny how quickly those concussions lift when the season is on the line.

Or how long they last when you want to change QBs.
