The guys play calling makes me throw up. The reason I took the Cowboys last night is because of Andy Reid's play calling. I lost money on Eagles against Redskins and I realized Andy Reid is one of the worst play callers in the league. McNabb could have easily snuck the ball in the endzone to tie the Redskins last week. This week Reid does it again. He plays conservative the whole game and runs the ball alot and does not throw the deep ball like the Eagles usually do. The gameplan appeared to be working to perfection. It may have cost them a TD at times when they only got a field goal, but his conservative play calling worked against the Cowboys bend but don't break defense. Then Reid decides to get fancy and throw the ball at the end with McNabb. What a moron. Make the Cowboys earn it and score the final TD at least. Stick a fork in Reid and the Eagles. And I feel bad for Eagles fans that will be stuck with him and McNabb for the next few years. T.O is a jackass, but the guy speaks what is on his mind and he is right. McNAbb is overrated. He chokes under pressure on a consistent basis. The year the Eagles should've won the Superbowl was 3 years ago when they lost to Tampa. McNabb choked the game away. That was the Eagles best team ever and their only legitimate chance to win the big game. Now the AFC dominates and will continue to dominate the rest of McNAbb's hobbled career.
Andy Reid

agree with everything, Reid called the play, but I'm sure he told Mr. Choke only throw if he is open, don't force it. Nobody except Williams could have caught that ball, exactly same as last week against Washington.

This is something I totally agree with. That 2002 team was the best defensive unit they have had, and the Staley/Westbrook combo was far more effective than even TO was last year. Naturally Staley scored on the first drive of that championship game and Reid then abandoned the run. Sometimes I do think he forgets that running the ball is a viable option.
I'm not call for AR's head or anything, he did take this team out of the gutter and built them into a winner rather quickly, but I do think someone else needs to do the playcalling. If he doesn't trust Childress as OC to be that guy, then maybe a new coordinator needs to be hired. Either way it's not working as is.

I couldn't agree more, I have to sit and hear fat ass Andy Reid's bullsh%t after every game how he has to do a better job of this and that blah blah blah. It's getting old Fat ass. McNabb does blow, the Eagles would have won at least one Super Bowl with a decent qb. :cursin:
I agree about Reid. to throw the ball at the point of the game was horrible.
Another thing to watch for about the Eagles and on that play is the split of the runningbacks.
When the eagles backs line up close to the QB and closer to each other it is always a 3 step drop.They do this so they can get to their blocks easier, however it is predictable, I've been calliung it out before the snap all year long. Undoubtedly Roy Williams was onto this too. In a three step drop the ball is usually thrown under 10 yards, unless it is a fade. You'll see slants, stops and out. The reciever on this play was too close to the sideline for an out. So williams knew slant or stop was the play. Mcnabb appeared to throw the stop. Roy picked it for an easy six.
Reid needs to scout himself better and fix his tendency to give away the play. Madden also pointed out near the goaline an inside LB called out the shuffle pass before the play. Looks like the cowboys were well coached and watched alot of game tape during the bye week.
Reid should have countered, but I guess he was to wrapped up in the T.O. mess
I'm a long time Eagles fan and I think this game will break their spirits. I cant see them making the playoffs. and there run may be over :sadwave: :nooo: :nooo: :nooo: :nooo:
