Want to put money down on that Rob? Pats over Eagles easy.

Bah, we could do $20 paypal. No spread or none of that sht, just which team wins.

You're on buddy I hate that spread stuff anyway, whatever happened to the good ol days of "my team will win" betting.

Any room for another eagles bet?

TO didn't seem to do have much effect when the Eagles got raped by the Steelers...I remember it well...seeing him sitting on the sidelines, quiet as a mouse for probably the first time in his life....it was great.

With the Pats playing so similar to the Steelers, I don't think he will make a difference against them either. Pats by 14, if the Eagles are lucky.

Not THE Freddie Mitchell who had 22 receptions for 377 yards this year and 2 TDS!!!!! Have mercy on the Patriots for cying out loud, he averaged almost 24 yards a game!!! Believe me when I tell you, you can't stop Freddie Mitchell, you can only hope to contain him.

Not a very meaningful statistic. He moves the ball down the field and converts first downs. He's part of a bigger strategy that has done the Iggles very well this year.

Everyone knows Vinaterri is gonna win it again with another clutch kick. Pats by 3, you heard it again here first. Eagles are overrated and overpayed. This will thoroughly be shown by the way the Pats defense man handles the eagles. (everyone remember that colts offense?)

Wow, they're overrated now. That's a new one. Good luck backing that up with the spread, rotfl...

That type of betting still exists. Here in Vegas, the underdog pays more than 1/1.

For those that want the Eagles, I will be happy to walk down the street and get them better payoffs.

Yeah, that 7-7.5 point line really shows the Eagles are overrated...

And while the defense is double-teaming him, there is one less defender to cover the likes of Brian Westbrook and Freddie Mitchell.

Exactly. Even if TO can't make the huge plays, he's still going to draw double coverage.

Yeah right, you don't think belicheck knows that TO is going to be ineffective? I'm sure he's going to put double coverage on a gimp :roll:

The Pats will only need one CB to cover his injured ass, that's a non-point and I think the fact he's playing will get blown out of proportion. He won't get many passes.

Exactly, in fact, this is all just a ploy to get belichick to spend more time game planning for TO when he's really not going to play (or they'll just put him out there as a decoy but they won't seriously consider using him in any meaningful way)

 

[Anubis]

good let him play, i cant wait to see asante samuel level him like he levled that dude on teh colts

Ya, seriously...if you want a 1 to 1 Eagles bet, give it to me and I'll bet for you. Give me the $10, I'll bet for you and if you win, I'll give you $15 in winnings (plus your $10 back of course).

 

[NL5]

Ummmmm -

Manning-Harrison >>> McNabb-TO - and you saw what the Pats did to Indy. The NFC was a joke this year.

Pats all the way Baby!

 

[geno]

Minnesota tried that trick a few times this season, Moss came back and all this ruckus was made about it, then he came in and gimped for a few plays and he sat down the rest of the game.

Also, Philly shouldn't worry too much about their receivers, Indy showed that you can have great receivers, but that isn't worth crap when your QB can't deal with the pressure.

 

[Brian48]

I'm glad TO will be playing. I can't wait for Harrison to land a bomb on him once he gets anywhere near the ball.

Overpayed??? WOW, are YOU igorant! The Eagles are one of the FEW teams that stay consistantly UNDER the cap and NEVER have cap problems -- and they've won more games in the last 4 years than any professional football team on the planet. But, hey, thanks for playing! :roll:

 

[jlarsson]

Reality check for Eagles fans ... something to keep in mind ...

The Patriots defense held the Indianapolis Colts to 3 points two weeks ago ... TO or no TO, the Eagles don't have the offense the Colts did.
Also, to go along with that ... the Patriots put 41 points on the leagues best defense.

Go Pats!

What was that?

 

[NeoV]

he's not going to play, plain and simple...I've had a similar injury and there is no way he can play this soon...he might be able to run in a straight line, and stop and start when he wants to, but he simply isn't going to be able to plant and cut as a reaction to defensive players around - the risk of making the injury worse and affecting next season and perhaps his career is very real.

Didn't you know that he's being spititually healed and doesn't need to listen to mere mortals?

Exactly, he is not CLEARED to play, he just says he will play anyway.

 

So TO can now take part in the eagles losing.
Good for him!
