They didn't really try to get Reggie isolated in space as much as I thought they would. Even a good number of the throws to him were kind of traditional dump offs over the middle, where he was more or less a last resort. And, as expected, there were a couple of plays where he definitely looked slower on the softer soil.

The worst part is dealing with all the people in my office who don't watch a minute of ANY type of football come up to me (or call my office) to talk about the game, or generally what's wrong with the Eagles.
I'll talk to anyone who follows the game about the game, but I hate those conversations (and those people) more than I hate people who stand to the left on escalators...and I HATE those people.

Bklyn, I know what you mean. Around here, many of the people could give a crap about UM or OS until the big day. Then suddenly, you have all these people running around in brand new team shirts, going to parties and mouthing off when they win, like they've followed the team all year...
Another thing I'm going to bitch about...those flags put on car windows. People have them flying in the wind when their team is winning, but when things turn the other way, you can't find a flag to save your life.

The Giants offense was downright embarrassing last night. Less than 30 yards rushing? Seriously? I'm not sure what to say. It's almost as bad as Ray Rice only getting five carries last week at Seattle.
What the hell goes on in the minds of some of the OCs? I mean, seriously?
Also, if you lose at home to a team whose QB has thrown three INTs, you seriously need to have your pulse checked because you may, in fact, be dead.
That said, good on my boy Vince. That was a solid job of shaking off the errors and balling when it counts most.

I guess that's why I never see Cam Newton doing in-depth pieces on Fox NFL Sundays.
Around midseason, with his frustrations about to blow, Newton's cellphone rang. It was Ray Lewis, the Ravens' future Hall of Fame linebacker. "Baby boy," crackled the voice on the other end of the line, "whatcha so mad about? Listen here, you ain't going through nothing that anybody that is great hasn't been through."
A defiant Newton swallowed hard, stood up straight and tried to explain himselfand Lewis filled his ear with laughter. "Four years," Lewis shouted. It took him four years to get Baltimore to .500. (In Year 5, the Ravens won the Super Bowl.) "This isn't who you are," Lewis said. "Why ain't you smiling? Get a damn smile on your face." To a man, Newton's teammates and coaches say they welcome his outspoken, unrelenting competitive fire. But if Ray Lewis calls out of the blue to say you're too intense, maybe it's time to chill a bit. "People are gonna respect the Panthers," says Newton. "And I want what I do as a quarterback to be scary. I want people to be in fear. I want it, and I'm gonna get it. But I realize now it's a process."

This was clearly before they played the Texans, who spent the afternoon continuing their celebration of their first-ever playoff berth. That said, Cam's future is big and bright. If Carolina retools the defense, I could see them replacing ATL in they playoff pecking order next year.

JaMarcus deserves what he gets....
That said, I honestly think it was a bytch move for Cam to bring him & Vince Young up
those guys didn't bring you media scrutiny, all of that shyt came from your own backyard Cam
anyway, hes young, he'll learn

Ohh no. Anything with Jason Whitlock in the heading gets a big pause from me. Plus, I think I already know what it's about and it's par for the course.

This wasn't as much about Fat Bastid, it was about his barber "Big Deuce" who was on the podcast. Dude reminded me of my old barber, Jamar.
