GaryClarkFan Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Say what you will about Philly, I can't stand them either, but you have to admit they get up for EVERY game. They lose their starting quarterback and have no real running game and it seems they are in every game because of their will to win. I wish the Skins had these type of players.:2cents: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Eagles didn't play with a lot of heart last year as they were a speed bump in the NFC East. The Redskins players haven't given up and have played close games since Campbell became the starter. The difference is that Garcia is 36 years old and has veteran experience while the Eagles are not missing a player of Clinton Portis' stature in the backfield or at wide receiver. Garcia has a healthy offense to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bulldog Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 yeah, buddy, going down to NO and beating a 9-4 team at home with homefield on the line shows no heart, right? :laugh: Give me a break.

NoCalMike Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 The thing people forget is that they have been mainly the same contunitive team in the same system for a long time now. They are a veteran team for the most part. They execute well which will lead to wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovellj Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Honestly, you chose to post this after this game? I'm thoroughly confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCS Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Oh please. This conversation probably wasn't even considered earlier this season when Philly, with Donovan, weren't playing all that well going 5-4. Without Donovan, they've had their butts handed to them twice. Though they have won 3 in row now, as Bulldog said, different circumstances. And per chance, did you see today's game? That was heart. It's seemed it's been a little lacking at times this year, but today was a good example of team that has heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might as well take that #84 jersey off and put on an apron. One win on the road doesn't erase the way this team has played this year. The defense stepped up, but the way our offense was moving the ball, we should have scored well over 16 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartskins Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Yeah buddy, were a great team because we played 1 good game. Good going jerkoff, what do you know about # 84??? Hate to be the one to break it to you, but bulldog's forgotten more football than you'll likely learn in a lifetime. And no need for insults.

It was about the supposed lack of HEART. Posting this after we beat the Saints in NO makes no sense, whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posting this after we beat the Saints in NO makes no sense, whatsoever. I don't think it was about heart, I just think we outplayed them. It takes more than a good game here and there to prove that you have heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oliphant Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Please. Best thing that happened to Philly this year was losing McNabb. Garcia knows the WCO like the back of his hand. He puts balls where his receivers can get them (instead of in the dirt or over their heads) and he worries about playing football instead of hawking soup or his selling his clothing line in the middle of a losing streak. Garcia is exactly what the Eagles needed at the point in the season when he cme in as starter. They probably would have lost two-of-the-last-three had McNabb remained under center.

SlinginSammy HOF '63 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 The fact that our offense racked up 350 yards and our defense shut down the NFL's number 1 ofense tells me this team has some heart left. They just needed diretion and I think they're finally figuring out Saunders' offense. Now when they finally figure out how to reach the endzone we'll be OK.

You might as well take that #84 jersey off and put on an apron. Amen. This team came into NO 4-9 with nothing to play for but their pride. They could have rolled over taken a beating and nobody would have blamed them for going down against the top ranked offense in the league. Instead our much maligned defense came in and put a whooping on the Saints. Imho this was the best effort we've shown all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite the fact that we went 0-6 in the East last year, we still managed to make it pretty tough on both Washington and New York with Mike McMahon at the helm.

DButz65 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Ummmm WRONG FORUM FOR EAGLE TALK Mods move or close this thread, please! And just because we dont jump up and down after every tackle does not mean we do not play with heart, smart guy.

Mark The Homer Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Say what you will about this season, but we've had some really good games this year: Beat the Jags at home in OT ! Beat the Cowboys at home in the final second ! Came from behind to beat the Panthers in the 4th quarter with a 66 yard pass. Held on to beat the Saints. All four of these were great great wins, and we generally didn't get excitement like this under the previous 3 coaches. Wins like this require playing with heart. Now if we could just get some consistency... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
