<< What I do know is if this were last season, they would have found a way to be 0-2, fwiw.>> This is huge factor, to be have had 9 turnovers and still be 2-0, one win against a weak team playing a team they had prepared for for months(given we were their first opponent) and the 2nd one against one of of the top 3 teams in the AFC, in which both teams were . Kelce loss hurts but Dallas Reynolds going against future Hall of Famer Ngata, in his first ever regular season NFL game a great boost, but we are THIN, we can't have anymore go down. Best potential news is Jason Peters may be back by mid-season(he is now working out) Not just us, but all NFL teams live unger the the constant threat an essential player goes down. Big positive is Brandon Boykin'/Nick Foles/ FletcherCox/Polk/ Bryce Brown and Mychal Kendricks make up what looking like a great draft--Brandon Boykin was fantastic at the end of the game Sunday, his covered Flacco prime target like a blanket. Maybe there #5 pick RT Dennis Kelly were prove an positive additive. Believe it or NOT the last time the Eagles opened 2-0 under Reid, Eagles went 13-3 and to the SuperBowl. Their game Sunday will be TOUGH, as Arizona is sky high after beating Patriots in New England(with ex-Eagle QB, Kolb, at the helm). Arizona now are 2-0 and play Eagles in Arizona--both teams playing for 3 -0 start--Eagles win IF they can just have NO more than 2 turnovers. Loved hearing Howard hitting a 2 run HR with 2 outs in ninth and Phils down 2-1. Howard a .220 BA has 48 rbis since July 13th--don't know how he does it, but he does--he will get his usual 120rbis or more next year. Phils battle for division title next year. NHL--i livedin CC Philly i 74 and 75 so i was in the hystria, i even had 7 autographs, but to be frank it has worn off--the NHL seems determined to self destruct. i was once one of those creaming for blood at Flyers games way back than, but i have done 180----i will be looking a lot closer at Sixers, think they have their best team in over a decade. Have good days ahead--and thanks for dropping in. The Maxer(VBG:) |
