I think one of the worst things about looking at the Eagles' roster is that it reads like a who's who of players I had wanted on the team. AJ Brown, Davonta Smith, Hassan Reddick, etc... these are guys I was pounding the table for and now they're awesome players for the Eagles.

Sorry mate. Hope you're on the mend and feeling better soon.

I commented on the game day thread that I had gotten stuck at a gig, but I did watch the first three drives of the game on my phone. After the Jones INT I turned it off and it never went back on. I know it was a really disappointing end to the season, but I had said to my friends at work this week that I thought we'd lose by 2-3 scores. Look at each team's rosters and tell me which position group you wouldn't swap for the Eagles' players. Their roster might be the best in the league right now, and we're trotting out street free agents and practice squad players. Last night before bed my wife said she was sorry about how the game went, but I replied "I'm not. I thought we'd win four games this season; we more than doubled that and beat the #2 seed in the playoffs with practice squad players. What are we going to do once we have NFL caliber players on the team?" I'm really, REALLY excited to see what we look like when Fabian Moreau isn't a starting corner... when Isiah Hodgins isn't your #1 WR... when Ben Bredeson isn't your best interior lineman. This was supposed to be a rebuilding year and we were playing with house money the entire time. I haven't been this excited about a Giants team since after Eli's rookie season. Can't wait for next year, and fuck the Eagles with a sawfish bill.

So I just got home but I'm thinking this isn't worth turning on?

Whelp, been a fun season fellas.

Brutal. There is such a huge gap between the Eagles roster and this roster it's unreal.

My gig has gone an extra hour so I'm watching on my phone as middle school kids dance to Rick Astley. No, really...

I'm doing brats again boiled in beer, and drinking the same beer as last week. You know... just in case that's what's providing the mojo.

Right? Where's the fucking Plax Burress regular season game? Where's the JASON SEHORN game, NFL?!?!

Cowboys have a better overall record. Cowboys have better seeding. Cowboys have a better conference and divisional record. Cowboys beat us twice. Cowboys have a better roster with more All-Pros. Cowboys scored the same number of points last week against a better defense. Cowboys beat the Vikes 40-3. Seriously, I hate the Cowboys, but I'm not sure in what world the Giants should be above them in the power rankings.

Lol the girlfriend line was hysterical.

We have him locked up for two more years. With the team's injury history it's not worth the risk IMO. Let's see if he'd healthy and still good in two years and pay him then. I mean... yeah... but we hear that every year. Hopefully things are different with Shoen but I'll believe it when I see it.

I agree with this sentiment, but I'd much rather give him the fifth-year option this offseason and see what happens. The Giants Stadium turf has not been kind to our players, and I'd like to avoid a situation where we give him an extension in the offseason and he blows out a knee/back/any fucking thing and is 75% of the player that he was... and we're stuck with a big contract.

Andrew Thomas is a straight fucking stud. I thought he'd really start to bloom in his third year. He reminded me a lot of Tyron Smith.

Cowboys beat Giants twice. They're the better team until proven otherwise.

Yep.

I'd take him back but only on the condition that I can punch him in his stupid face as much as I want. Fuck that guy and I don't want to see him in our stadium ever again.

Christian Darrisaw has kept Thibodeau pretty fucking quiet, huh?

Great. Both of our edge rushers are out.

Not a great start.

OOOO!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOO

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
