They have convinced me of their wisdom and why this may happen, but it's still hard to believe that all the home teams will lose. That would be monumental in playoff history. Well, I'm no expert but I have 3 of the 4 underdogs -- with exception of Saints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dottleshead ★ Posted January 12, 2019 Share #52 Posted January 12, 2019 Also, what's with this STUPID late start to these playoff games on Saturdays?? The damn game should start at 10:30 PST and not 1:30 PST. How dare they not take into consideration my time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dottleshead ★ Posted January 12, 2019 Share #53 Posted January 12, 2019 The first game tomorrow is at 10:00 a.m. But Noooooooooo --- the first game today has to start at 1:30 p.m. Stupid.

jsharr ★ Posted January 14, 2019 Share #94 Posted January 14, 2019 The more I watch the Patriots win the more I strongly dislike Jerry Jones. If he would just shut up and emulate Robert Kraft the Cowboys would still be a hard hitter and not a punch line. I find myself becoming less a Patriots hater and more a Patriots believer. It does not hurt that Rex Burkhead is from Plano Texas and played for my Plano Wildcats. It was cool to watch him score his first career playoff touchdown today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decision has been made for a long time. Wentz is the better, younger QB, by a good amount. With a QB that has a stronger arm and can get out of the pocket and extend plays, Eagles beat the Saints. There's a chance Foles takes a home team discount to stay, he's not your typical NFL personality. He's already said he's accomplished all he wants and doesn't need any more money, really wants to stay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had the Eagles not had Foles, Wentz probably would have finished the season. At the time they shut him down, they had a near zero chance to make the playoffs, They didn't want Wentz spending another off season doing PT, and they had the Super Bowl MVP next in line. They let Ajayi keep playing with 3 broken vertebrae, but they had no other decent healthy RBs, and it was early in the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen exactly 1 Eagles game this season (yesterday’s), but my mother’s boyfriend is an Eagles STH. By his report, Wentz was pulled due to poor play, with the injury a convenient excuse to cover for it. He wants Foles retained, and Wentz traded. While he may be a crazy old coot, is his opinion respesentative if a small, silent group, a loud vocal minority, or something a sizable contingency of Eagles fans want?
