The politicians that is.

If you saw them ask Obama about his team, the Bears, he name drops one player and moves on.

Reminds me of the show "Veep". She heads into an interview and asks beforehand what team she roots for. In the interview, she name drops two players

I was lollin'

TLDR: At least your owner wants to win.

Jones is the best kind of owner there is; one that is willing to spend whatever it takes to win.

He is the worst possible GM however. He needs to stick to being an owner and hire a GM that knows how to select talent.

I vote for Jimmy Johnson as the Cowboys new GM.

Well the Eagles are pretty much done for the season. I wonder who they will hire in place of Andy Reid. Only question left is whether or not they will bench Vick.

I hope that walrus rots in hell.

In all seriousness though I bet on the eagles in my fantasy draft with the vick/jackson hookup and it hasn't worked out that well. The one week it did (last week) my opponent had Aaron Rogers so.....

Ouch. Eli manning only got me 0.5 pts this week. Good thing I had AP and Randall Cobb to make up for it.

I don't blame Mike Vick. It doesn't matter if you have Unitas/Marino/Manning/whoever back there, if the line can't hold for 2 seconds, you're not going to have an effective passing game.

Holy crap, did you guys see the Saints pass rush yesterday? They had hats on Vick after every single drop-back.

Invest in an O-Line, Philly!!!

some of that can be fixed with the right play calls. early on, mccoy was running the ball really well. so the D line stayed in place and didnt rush Vick as bad. As the game went on they stopped running as much and the D line got aggressive and Vick started getting hit.

Also Philly didnt call alot of quick pass plays.. nearly all were plays that would develop in 3-4 seconds which won't work.

Reid and OC and GM need to go.

I don't think it's his fault either. That is a pathetic excuse for an O line. The Saints had 13 sacks for the season coming in and they got 7 in this game alone.

It was almost as if they were getting paid to KO Vick

Part of that was because they got so far behind they had to pass. This problem was of course caused by their complete failure in the red zone.

right but they wer ebehind in the second quarter.. where you can still run the ball To the red zone and then pass. I mea if it works it works.

look at MN... 12 carries 168 years in the first half..

5 touches second half..

if my RB had over 12 yards per carry.. I wouldnt pass the ball ONCE.

Eagles haven't been giving McCoy the ball enough all season.

I'd only pass the ball to keep them from stacking 8 in the box.

I agree, Philly shouldn't have stopped running.

Puzzled me when the Ravens stopped running in their game. It's not like "Rice, Raymond" is all that good or anything.
