The eagles suck, let me begin with that. No wait the players are ok, there coach sucks, yeah thats it, or wait is it a combination of both?????
Let me tell you, I am used to leaving that stadium scratching my head, but today far & away took the cake. I have absolutely no idea what I just saw out there & then had to think about on my 2 hour drive home.
That is now 3 straight weeks that the eagles were not ready to play football. Against the saints they spotted them a 14 pt lead only to battle back, against the bucs, they spotted them a double digit lead only to come back & lose in dramatic fashion. As hard as those losses were for me to swallow, at least I know that at least they showed me something, at least they were into it & were able to make a game out of nothing at all.
Today I can't say that, not by any means, an absolutely god awful disgraceful putrid performance by a team that should have wacked the jaguars all over the field. The eagles were not ready to play football yet again. Andy reid has to be held accountable for this. I am sick & tired of hearing his same b**l **** during his post game press conferences. Todays loss was my fault, I need to be better, I need to call better plays. Do me a favor Andy & just shut the F UP would you please. Get a clue. I do not know what goes on during the week in the novacare complex to prepare for each game, but whatever it is, it is a joke. The eagles seem to only have 1 game plan, with no backup plan in case plan A fails. Andy Reid just doesn't get it. When something isn't working, instead of on the fly coaching & making adjustments, what does he do? He keeps going to the stuff that isn't working!!!! THats good coaching folks. What baffles me the most is how disinterested the team looked out there. I don't know where the teams mind was, but it wasn't where it should have been. I have always defended andy reid, but I am now to the point (and this is not just out of anger) where I am questioning whether or not he deserves to be the coach of the philadelphia eagles. The team holds part of the blame, another 5 drops today adding to our league leading total, but the preparation factor, the game plan, the adjustments, well they just aren't happening. Andy Reid is on his last legs at least in my eyes, I am not calling for his head yet, but today taught me a very big lesson.
Sorry about the venting guys, Usually I talk about the positves & the negatives, today there were absolutely no positves unless you consider the great punting of dirk johnson & the really solid play of dhani jones & brian dawkins.
The eagles are 4-4 & fading fast, fading into the abyss, a place where even I am having trouble seeing the light.
