I really hope Fangio has a plan not to let Watson look like Peyton Manning on Sunday. The Eagles D (for the most part) has been the perfect elixir for average QBs to look great.
I’ve been thinking about the TB game a lot. At least offensively. That eagles team reminded me a bit of the 2001-2003 eagles. You know, the pinkston/thrash eagles. Good TE (Chad Lewis), good RB (prime Duce) and absolute garbage at WR. And by comparison, the WRs against TB were WRs with Splenda compared to pinkston/thrash. Give Hurts anything at WR and it’s a much closer game (if not a win).
And let’s not look past that falcons loss. Second cousins has them playing really well. And we were a dropped pass away from winning that game. This team could be 3-1 possibly 4-0. I know I know… they’re not. But I think in typical eagles fan fashion, people are wildly overreacting and all up in their emotions like my 4-year-old daughter. This team was banged up at serious positions. We needed the early bye. I have faith.

I agree. Jeff Lurie isn't Woody Johnson in terms of firing everyone, but lose this game and it's going to be a tough road to the playoffs for this expectation-laden team.
