Nov. 7 - at Steelers, L 3-27 Finally a difficult game and Pittsburgh destroyed them.
Oct. 31 - Ravens, W 15-10 Squeaked by an unjurry riddled Ravens, no Jamal Lewis
Oct. 24 - at Browns, W 34-31 Squeaked by a lousy Cle team who was playing decent at the time (for Cle)
Oct. 17 - Panthers, W 30-8 Feasted on another injury depleted squad @ home..
Oct. 3 - at Bears, W 19-9 Da Bears SUCK
Sept. 26 - at Lions, W 30-13 Beat a young Lions team, big deal.
Sept. 20 - Vikings, W 27-16 Viking on the road, we all know how good they are away from Minn...not very!

they said the same thing about the rams the year they won it. what about the two big playoff victorys the eagles had?! they won those fairly easy also.

and pitt destroyed NE about the same time so you cant really use that as an example.

 

[Journeyman]

Seriously SB, for once take off the homer glasses and tell me which games were difficult ?

This team has been tested ONCE all YEAR...

 

[blueedwards]

i think the philly defense will keep them in this game. reid has 2 weeks to prepare and you did not list the playoff games against minny and atlanta in your "cupcake schedule". they are playing very well.

That's because they beat just about everyone on their schedule by double digits. It's not like these teams really had a chance to begin with JMan.

SB I love ya man but Jman is on to something.. I still hope the beagles eek out a win

W's are hard to get in the NFL. Agree the NFC was weak. Don't think anyone can argue that, but W's are what matters and they got em', no matter. Means they were doing what they needed to do to Win. Think Phily is a good opponent for NE, and could win.

Playing the Colts TWICE alone is tougher than any two games Philly played...The Colts would beat the Eagles...

 

[D2bets]

Journey, just because they didn't play more of the better teams doesn't mean they couldn't have beaten them. If you discount the 2 games you said "they didn't try" then they only had 1 loss -- to Pitt -- same as NE had. They beat everyone else. How do you know they would not have also beaten the same teams NE had on their schedule? You can only beat the teams in front of you.

 

[Journeyman]

i think the philly defense will keep them in this game. reid has 2 weeks to prepare and you did not list the playoff games against minny and atlanta in your "cupcake schedule". they are playing very well.

Like adding the two indoor dome teams will make the Eagles more impressive?:howdy:

Easy Money... New England is a MONEY TEAM!
Because once again, they're (NE) not getting proper respect...Eagles are a mirage...Everyone wants to buy into the fact they have some flashy players and are falling for the 7 points...sounds easy enough...just like the Colts going to Foxborro and WINNING, HA!

:lolBIG:

 

[sportsbet]

LOOK at the what the defense has given up!!!

17, 16, 13, 9, 8, 31, 10, 27, 21, 6, 6, 17, 14, 7, 13, 10

Two bad defensive efforts against Cleveland and Pittsburgh (who also womped New England the week before us). Since the Pittsburgh game the defensive adjustments have been awesome. We get two weeks to devise a way to beat this team...this is setting up to be a very special finish! I can't wait to see Reid and Lurie holding up the Lombardi Trophy after the game is over.

Of course they can only beat what's presented to them... just making the point they have played no one besides the Steelers...without question the easiest road to a Super Bowl in the history of the SB...
