i find this crap so bizarre. who are you talking to? if it is the eagles, then reality check, they have much more important things to do than sit on their ass talking junk on a message board. if you are talking to an eagles fan, get ready to what? buy some beers and sit in front of the couch and yell and cheer at a tv screen? yes, you better come prepared with some doritos and a nice beer gut!

why do you use alternate realities to support your arguments? the games were played and the outcomes are final. if i argued like you i'd bring up the fact that the eagles shouldn't have even gone to OT with cleveland because the ONLY reason cleveland scored was because of a phantom roughing the passer call on 4th down.
you're the one who brought up the common opponents thing, don't try to turn it around by saying "you can play that game"

Didn't seem like a 'phantom' call to me.
The reality is sports is, the score judges win/loss and thats it. The score is not always an accurate judge of how close the game was, when you're referring to the quality of play of both teams over the entire game. Anyone who knows anything would tell you that.
Yes, I did bring up the common opponents, and the Giants weren't even in my compairson, because my comparison was teams played in opposite locations.
You also have to factor in so many other things than just a few numbers in the books. The Giants are a much better team than they were week 1, you can't deny that. The Eagles are not as good a team as they were week 1, you can't deny that either.
The simple fact of the matter is the Eagles are playing like sh!t lately, Dallas if off and on, but the game is being played in Dallas, so you can't say it will be a blowout, and you have to admit that Dallas might win. So is the NFL.

Well if you're going to disregard the Giants, then we should be able to disregard the Steelers too. Either way, if you're going to talk about how the teams fared against common opponents, you don;t get to pick and choose which oppenents you look at & pick the ones that help your argument only. Sure individual scores can be misleading, but a 42 point differential is no fluke.
anything is possible, but I don't a loss happening against Dallas and their "stupid" players. Andy Reid is 15-2 the week after a loss.

Well, the reason I said the Giants were an exception was because my theory is that both teams are much better at home than they are away. That is what I was comparing, not their complete common opponents record.
Ok ok Dallas sucked it up at home against the Giants, but you could also make the case that it was 5 weeks difference, and the Giants have certainly been playing better as time goes on.
I'm not trying to say Dallas is a better team or has played a better season. I'm saying Dallas has a chance to win this game.

They will probably change their covering scheme and have Newman play man on Owens most of the game. Newman hasn't had a great season, but he's pulled it together a little bit in the past 2 weeks, and he did a pretty good job against Moss in week 1. I'd be more worried about Pinkston, considering Hunter and Williams are both still hurting, meaing 7th-round draft pick rookie Lance Fraiser will be starting on the other side.

Last I heard Westbrook is listed as probable, that he will play but is not 100%. Probably 10-15 carries. You can never predict what the Dallas offense will do. One day Vinny looks great, the next he is awful. The passing game should show improvement as the rookies playing in place of the injured Glenn and Morgan get more experience, but expect a healthy dose of Witten and Keyshawn. The running game will hurt, and will continue to hurt, until Jones returns. The key for Dallas will be controlling the clock and keeping Philly's offense off the field, which means running the ball.

The starting RB is Eddie George. He shares carries with Richie Anderson and Rashard Lee. It should be Julius Jones...had he not broken his scapula. Lee has actually shown the best runs of those 3 guys, but he is young and Parcells doesn't trust him on pass coverage. Thus, they can only give him limited carries, cuz the other teams knows if he's in the game he's gettin the ball.
Yes, Smith is listed as Questionable. This is a definitely a big plus for Dallas...Chad Lewis is not as much of a threat, which means linebackers can be used for blitzing more often.

woah woah woah, and Eagles fan making fun of a head coach for being fat? :shocked: wow.
You can hardly blame Parcells for the way this season has gone. Injuries have been ridiclous, something like 12 starters are currently out. Not to mention the starting QB was released for 'outside reasons'.
