Who was that dude on the Eagles that got trucked by Trent Richardson? There has to be a .gif floating about.

He is so bad he'll give the entire team aids. Or get Cutler drunk before the game and get him killed on the field.
No he doesn't.
Remember when the 9ers won the super bowl last season?
Our defence played great I thought yesterday. Just out inept offensive playcalling and Weeden having a horrific day which held us back.
You have to think with Haslam coming in he wont care about Weeden and he'll take a new QB next year. Which means the extra pick we got in the Julio Jones trade would've been a waste.
If Dwight Freeney doesn't get hurt the Bears would have lost yesterday. Unless they try that cheap shit Saints garbage that they pulled yesterday the Bears don't have a shot in hell.
Ok. The run D looked good, I'll give you that. But I can't really judge the secondary on this game. Look at who they were playing. Weeden missed a few wide open receivers, including one in the end zone. Against a competent QB, those passes are completed and the Eagles lose going away.
My biggest worry has been, and continues to be, Vick's tendency to turn the ball over. It would have cost us the game yesterday, if it weren't for Weeden's historically bad performance. Lots of people are pointing to the final drive as some sort of testament to Vick's ability to "pull out the W", but he got lucky twice on that drive: he almost coughed it up on the 3rd down scramble and he had a sure INT in the end zone dropped by LJ Fort.
Last season's -14 in turnovers was one of the biggest reasons we went 8-8, IMO. If Vick continues to be careless with the football, it won't matter how good our defense or Shady are. We will still miss the playoffs.

I agree with both points but they are still positive things for the Eagle to take from that game. Last year they would have lost that game for sure. Hopefully surviving like that will gt them to focus more and play better going forward. Brown could be an 8-8 or 7-9 team with McCoy. They will be lucky to win 3 with Weedon. He looked worse then any rookie I can remember seeing.

So the front page news story on Yahoo is that Tom Brady got a scratch on his nose? What the fuck?

Of course they did. They were playing an absolutely anemic offense with no vertical threat or well any passing game to speak of /at all/. Stack the box all you want all day long. There's no threat of anyone completing a pass. They fielded a rookie QB who at times looked utterly lost and even then I counted at least 4 times that Weeden overthrew wide open receivers running roughshod in your secondary.yankeehater said:
I'll say again - had the Browns put someone under center that could actually complete a pass, the Eagles would have lost that game in very bad fashion.
Let me be clear, too - I think the Eagles defense will be improved this season and there were some good things to take from that game but you'd have to be delusional to walk away from a game where you squeaked by one of the worst offenses in the NFL and state "the D looked fantastic!".
Fixed. Lulz if you think the refs had anything to do with stopping your running game. 56 fucking pass attempts. :jncyankeehater said:
I can't wait for more Packers players excuses after Thursday night!
Lol, the Niners couldn't recognize top talent on their roster! Besides, he fits in perfectly. No one on the Bears oline can block properly.

The safety Coleman.
That gif is awesome, but the wide angle view of the play may be even better. Coleman's helmet goes literally 10 yards downfield.

I meant the players not the fans. I understand you have to be confident after a loss but some of the things that they were saying in interviews yesterday were so strange.
You bastard :jnc
Woodson was clearly just trying to get the young defense to keep its head up.
Jarrett Bush was just being a fucking douche bag.
Poor Kurt... Got fucking trucked. Ah well, those two picks are sweet consolation.
And Gunshot's right on with Vick and his turnovers. We're going only as far as he'll take us. If he's the same mistake-prone QB he was at the start of last season and yesterday, then even an improved D won't help much.

I still think our defense is better, we actually got pressure on the QB. At some point, the pass rush can compensate for a bad secondary. Busted coverages though? I have no clue how to compensate for stupid.
I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm actually wondering how we're going to deal with Brandon Marshall. It's weird because I don't remember the last time I was concerned about a Bears WR. This next game is going to really tell us what kind of team we have this year. Is it a 2009/2010 team? Or are we going to do impressions of 2008 again?

Pretty sure the Steelers won it last year with Tebow as their qb. Don't you remember when. Tebow went shirtless on the final drive?
Well thats one way to make your money go further. SMH
Come on, that's pretty awesome :-D

We're in tough economic times, folks. This fine gentleman is simple making do....
They'll let Cutler throw to him.
Marshall is almost purely a deep threat. Williams the gimp is still fine in mid to deep coverage.
Nick Perry on Alshon Jeffrey should be giving you nightmares.
And isn't the helmet pretty expensive
That was like a videogame review. They stopped watching when the Hawks had a 21 point lead in the 4th. They missed the comeback and also when Jesus caught a TD from Tebow.
Costs more than red duct tape.

I really hope we don't do this. Jeffrey is a bit of a hothead so hopefully that helps us out at some point.
I've got other GIFs but this pretty much sums it up. Rams ball just before 2 minute warning. 3rd and 9. Get the first down and they can run down the clock and kick a FG to win the game. So of course Bradford overthrows his WR by 10 yards on a 3 yard route. Doesn't even look for anyone else
My QB would never do that. I'm not the Sean Payton of FF, that's slander.
I'm more like the Matt Millen of FF.

Got home from the Browns game pretty late last night.
Even though we lost it was probably the best time at s Browns home opener I've had. Great tailgate, and sat in the upper Dawg Pound. The Crowd went crazy on plenty of plays, especially when Trich knocked Coles Helmet off. Jimmy Clausen and Blaine Gabbert laughed at Weedens first start. This year is pretty much his audition tape for Haslam. If we would of won this game it would of been like we won the Super Bowl in stadium/Cleveland.
Eagles fan i wouldn't be proud of this game if i was you guys haha, told a bunch of fans on my way out your Qb sucks! They just looked back at me and said we know. Eagles fans reactions through must the game was pretty hilarious though.
Barking for Barkly etc signs incoming

nope
Forget the throw, I fucking love that clearly his first read on 3rd and 9 is a 4 yard out!
What the hell?!

He has risen from the ashes to lead NFL-Gaf to the promised land. He's sorta like Kevin Kolb.
