Official Eagles vs Falcons thread

Eagles @ -1 looks like a lock for tomorrow night over mr. inconsistent M. Vick. I'm prolly gonna go all in again on this but first I'd like to hear your opinions on this.

mr. inconsistent = sometimes dazzling. Gotta go with the home dog falcons.

To close to call. No good bets.

How big of an effect do you guys think the TO/McNabb contraversy will have on the Eagles passing game?

That and the fact its Falcons at home might make the game a little bleh. Still, with ATL losing Peerless Price and Eagles D in pretty good shape, I'm planning on betting the Eagles but I sure as hell wouldn't put my whole bankroll on it. But I'm a sportsbetting newbie so don't listen to me.

Wait, you're using LOSING Peerless Price as a reason to bet against a team? Heh.

Anyway, I refuse to bet against teams I root for, meaning I'll be betting the exact same amount here that I bet in the NFC Championship game. $0.00

GOOOOOOO FALCONS!!!!

None. Reference Eagles/Cincy preseason, first play, long bomb to TO, touchdown. This was before TO fell back in love with McNabb. I think that losing alligator-arm Pinkston and Mitchell on third-down situations would have more of an impact on their passing game than some silly off the field crap.

I agree its irrelvant for this particular game. It could impact the locker room for the whole season, which could be bad, but for this game, its meaningless.

I wouldn't put EVERYTHING on it, just cause you never know what Vick might do, but I believe very strongly that Philly will win this game. Despite the controversy, T.O. and McNabb will perform, and the only real piece they're missing on D is Corey Simon. I think it'll be a replay of the NFC Championship game. Philly's D will probably be too much for Vick. They are really limited to the running game now without Peerless(who wasn't a real #1 starter anyway). If I had some money to bet on this game, I'd bet it on Philly.

i've got a large amount of money on the birds for the reasons listed in my thread.... lock it up

There you go with that word lock again. This game is far from a lock. This is a big revenge game for Atlanta and another home dog situation. Confucius say tread with caution.
