Sure but then just hire an assistant for him that only specializes in clock management. His teams are always prepared and he's an offensive genius.

sure for 6 days (mon-sat), he's a great coach. on gamedays, he tends to call too many pass plays, not enough run plays and manages the clock horribly. ask any Eagle fan.

Can any coach be "great" without winning a Superbowl?!

I think that Vick;s hand is broken and that the crap about "just swollen" is just that so we will . . . a) prepare all week for Vick and he doesn't play or b) they will shoot his hand up, wrap it tightly and he will play.(He's broke and needs the money) A bruise does not swell like the top of his hand looked. If philly's D front seven is nearly as good as ours we will have a very long day. Loooooong Day and that is not the name of a new band

I know man. I see it too. That s**t is going to piss me off

hope it isnt against us, but we're not a sexy team and just see it as a perfect spot for him to get the tim duncan treatment as i call it

If the league starts penalizing teams for legal hits on the QB beginning with SF vs. PHI, then that will set a precedent that said QB can cry at a press conference and that will change things.

That would be a situation I would think the NFL would want to avoid. But they're f**king idiots, so who knows.

well i've seen brady be hit, then make some gesture to the ref like throw the flag, then the ref throws it, i think the precedent with star players is already there, whether they complain in a press conference or on the field right after, i hope we dont get screwed but i just got a wierd feeling

Oh I share that feeling. It's hard enough to prepare yourself mentally for the distinct possibility that your team is going to suck, but having the refs make it infinitely harder with bad calls, is something fans and team alike shouldn't have to prepare for.

That being said, I hope we tear Vicks arms from their sockets.

Seriously, I think that's why Eagles fans are so split with Reid.

definite legend, but I dont think his name would be in a conversation of the greats.
