EAGLES ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!!!!!
I am sorry that I have not written about this momentous occasion sooner.. I have been sick all week. So.. How about them birds huh? Here are my thoughts on Sundays game. First of all, I have to say our D is HUNGRY! I said at the beginning of the playoffs, If the D is hungry the Eagles will go far. I think the difference makers starts with our linebacking crew. Trotter has been AWESOME in the playoffs and people are taking notice. I hear that he is going to be on the cover of SI this week! He is seeing plays develop better than ever. He used to over commit, but now he is right where he is supposed to be. Another guy that has stepped it up is Keith Adams. He looked great in replacement of Simoneau. As a matter of fact if I were JJ I would keep Adams in there. He seems to be a great tackler. Speaking of tackling.. I think that has been the biggest part of the success of this football team. We just simply tackle well. You are not going to get too many extra yards on us. And you are not going to get yards due to missed tackles. On our D line, Burgess had a great game on the other side of the line. The D-line played hard the whole game.. I loved that hit by Hollis on Vick to hold them to a field goal. Our secondary had another great game. They just always look great back there.
On to our O! I have to say, if we can control the line of scrimmage like we have been throughout the playoffs. We will win the superbowl. The O-line is just playing outstanding! McNabb had a McGreat game. He is proving that he is a elite QB with or without TO. My boy Westbrook broke a bunch of nice runs. And our receivers don't look all that bad.
All in all it was a complete team effort. If the Eagles play like they have been minus the mental mistakes NE does not stand a chance! That is right you heard it here! More on the SB to come...
