    yeah because it will force reid to call more run plays.

    Yeah westbrook was given the ball 32 times thats alot for westbrook i think westbrook should get less and give buckhalter a few more carries.I don't want to see westbrook hurt does anyone agree that 32 carries is a little much for westbrook i say 25 is good for westbrook.

    I agree. 20-25 carries is good for Westbrook. Buckhalter should be getting more carries. If Westbrook would get that many and say 10 or so from Buckhalter, I'd be really happy.

    reid should be giving buckhalter & hunt more carries but he's too predictable.

    yea i like hunt more than buck hes more of a duce staley type running back i think he will be a pretty good backup to westbrook just like the old combo of westbrook and duce. Those were the days when the three headed monster was in philly i wish we could bring it back.

    I much prefer Buckhalter over Hunt right now. Buck has looked like he did years ago this season. I really think he's being underutilized.

    the more i think about it the more i want reid gone. we should have at least one more likely two super bowls to fall back on right now during this lean year.

    heck him heck him heck him !!!!!:icon_evil:

    Fish I'm glad I came!

    And who keeps saying AJ is not the answer or is not ready to play for us?

    I stand by my statement more than ever... McNabb sucks something fierce! Get rid of him! He sucks!!!!

    If you guys pin your hopes on AJ Feeley your crazy.....he'll break your heart....it was one game, come on, you really can't think he's better than Mcnabb can you?

    Also I think this gameplan tonight for the Patriots might have very well saved Reid's job, if it was in jeopardy. The guy's not an idiot and his players do play for him, it just sucks he came up a little short tonight.

    Congratulations, Eagles fans. You proved that the Patriots are a beatable team. Maybe with McNabb out there, the outcome would've been different.

    See you in December 16th...

    mcnabb are ya kidding last yr garcia comes in and plays like madman and now aj i know it was one game but man did he play well seems like the best thing for the eagles is mcnabb getting hurt

    yeah, a back-up qb who spotted the pats 7 points on the 3rd play of the game is better for us.

    he did run the offense better because he didn't hold onto the ball too long but other than that feeley killed us last night.

    im just stating that when a back up comes in you guys seem to to better im not just talking feeley but garcia last year. yeah feeley threw some int's but he kept that games kinda close but ya'lls d was the very good yesterday

    we won last year because we ran the ball more. with feeley it's a matter of the team as a whole stepping up. something they should be doing every week. how the heck does a team play the pats that close adn yet the same team struggles against the dolphins ?

    bah, i still think mcnabb is the best qb on the team but his days as an eagles are numbered. he is not a wco qb.

    feeley will start if mcnabb is gone. they'll bring kolb along slowly if possible.

    geez there's 3 throws i wish feeley had back last night:

    1- pick 6 for asante samuel
    2- underthrow of kevin curtis at end of 3rd/4th quarter(?) when he had the double team beat
    3- stupid stupid stupid deep throw to kevin curtis when asante samuel was playing 10 yards ahead of him

    I Don't thinks mcnabbs going to play this week so one more game out of feeley then back to the struggling mcnabb.

    give me a break. find me another guy in the league who's been away from nfl action as long as feeley had who would be willing to step into the kind of hits this guy did against a team as intimidating as this year's patriots. sure he made a few mistakes, as expected, but he made some downright impressive throws throughout the game. to do what he did last night with virtually no running game and no receiver carrying him (he did a good impression of old school mcnabb in spreading the ball around) is nothing short of amazing. go ahead and blast him for the boneheaded play he made in the 4th quarter, there's not a soul in philly who doesn't wish we had that 2nd down back, but if you're going to ignore his stellar play in between his two big mistakes, you're a fool. westbrook had less than 100 net yards, the defense (though they did a great job of applying pressure on brady and shutting down moss) was overmatched. feeley didn't kill us in that game, he was the reason it was a game.

    as for mcnabb, i agree his days are numbered as an eagle. i just really hope that number is 0. reid is implying that he won't play next week, and hopefully aj will show enough that reid won't be able to sit him when mcnabb is healthy. the chances of reid ever sitting a healthy mcnabb are very slim though.
