if you watched the 49ers game you will see it was our game and we gave it to 49ers by failing to score from the 1yd line in 6 attempts--score then would have been 10-6 and with not that much time left----the failure from the one may have been the best thing that happened to Eagles as the Offense has been playing much better since then--Eagles were ony dominated in one game this year,and that was in the Raiders game.Eagles last year had the youngest team in football and Reid has been bringing them along in stages.
They are young confident and have no fear.
The game boils down to can the Rams handle the most aggressive blitzing team in football.It is that simple.

i got to LOVE this quote from Isaac Bruce--talk about a team getting bloated heads--from NYT <<The two teams meet again in today's National Football Conference title game, and this time it is not just a regular-season contest on the line, but a trip to the Super Bowl. Despite the close, hard-fought game played between these two teams in September, many think the No. 1-ranked St. Louis offense, the first team in league history to score more than 500 points in three straight seasons, will steamroller the Eagles.

















"We are clicking and pretty much on all cylinders," Rams wide receiver Isaac Bruce said. "It's kind of hard to stop. I mean, you have to sometimes just step back in amazement and just look at the things that are happening."

They are confident, yes, but to win, St. Louis must deal with one of the more aggressive, unpredictable and confident defenses of the past several years.>> end quote from todays NYT.
