Official Atlanta/Philly game thread

[mybills]

A little late, but I didn't see one started. :idunno:

What I'm seeing is a mediocre defense from Atl, but they have a pretty good special teams. I'm also seeing a damn good defense from Philly, and they're all over Vick's chit. Philly is going in for another TD, because Atl's D isn't stepping up enough.

[mybills]

Another thing I'm seeing is stupid penalties and bad spotting of the ball. I know the zebra's job is tough, but the booth is sound asleep for some of these. :shakeno:

[helmetguy]

Bill Corollo's crew is working the game. Need I say more?

[mybills]

lol. Well, they only got the field goal. Guess mediocre is good enough sometimes. :snicker:

[mybills]

Man, it looks like they don't trust Peerless talent..he had one man coverage and space between them, and they STILL won't throw to him.

[helmetguy]

Vick throw into the wind? Look at the havoc the wind is wreaking on Chris Mohr; and he cut his teeth in Buffalo winds.

[mybills]

That's the second time I saw them pass on the Price opportunity. He was wide open for a 5 yd TD pass, and they handed off and got stuffed. Then Vick ran it on 3rd down and got stuffed right afterwards..Philly held them to a FG. :shakeno:

Maybe it's just me, knowing what he can do. :idunno:

[mybills]

Why can't they cover Westbrook? :dizzy:

[helmetguy]

I know what you mean. By the same token, when you have a run first/pass maybe QB like Vick, WRs are almost an afterthought.

[Dozerdog]

When you say bad spot of the ball- were you referring to Westbrook's 3rd down play when he went out of bounds after a catch right before the half?

I thought the spot was decent. Westbrook made no attempt to dive for the sticks- yeah he tried to get his feet to the 1st down marker, but if you look where the ball was, it was in his right hand. With his shoulders parallell to the sideline, it was in the hand furthest away from the marker.

I thought the spot was decent.

I also don't have any major problem with the officials (yet) today either.

Philly 20
Atl 10
:bravo:

[mybills]

Yes Dozer, that was the spot I was talking about. I saw his foot on the 1st down, then I saw what you mean by the ball & shoulder. The ball was stretched after his foot hit the spot, and the spotting by the ref looked backwards. Instead of marking the spot where the foot & ball were, he spotted it behind him. That's what it looked like to me anyway. :idunno:

[Mr.Reality]

It'd be nice for Atlanta if Vick knew how to play QB, because Philly only has about two guys in their secondary. :crazy:

[mybills]

ATL will do better as soon as they accept that Philly isn't STL! :chuckle:

[helmetguy]

What the hell was Collinsworth just talking about? He's got the Eagles confused with the Falcons by the sound of it.

[mybills]

:rofl: helm, it's much better when it's muted! :snicker:

[helmetguy]

GAME OVER!

[helmetguy]

Very true!

These FOX commentators, Collinsworth and Joe Suck, both need to go. They're horrific.

I guess the outcome of this game proves that:

1. Atlanta can't solely rely on Vick to win all the games for them.
2. Philly can win without T.O.

not necessarily

[RedEyE]

I hate seeing the Eagles win, but I love watching the Falcons lose.

[imbondz]

I hate it when that happens

[imbondz]

I hate it when that happens
but I also love it

[RedEyE]

but I also love it

So you know what I mean?

BTW, how in the world are you connected to the internet after that huge snow storm you guys got hit with? If the stores are closed, I recommend that you eat that cardinal.

[imbondz]

Terry Bradshaw is a f***k nut.
