Foles soon to disappear in the snow.
Nearly the perfect weekend of results sport wise, nearly beat ourselves vs Seattle but pulled it out in the end, awesome job
Sky Blackout prevented me watching this game!
Also, your sig might need updating
Lions and Philly game was pure lols with the amount of snow that was falling, surprised they didnt call the game off with the near white out conditions.
Nah I still love Alex Smith , cult hero and first QB I've ever come to like for the niners. I need to get Kaep in on the rotation though, we got too many players to pick from for sigs though.

What a catch was this was by Anquan too, massive holding/PI and still takes it one handed, caught 6 out of 8 passes targeted at him with an average of 15+ yards, pretty decent game that against 'the legion of boom'
The Eagles Lions game is one of the best I've seen in a long time, and it's certainly the best football the Eagles have played since the '10 season.
It's up there with the best I've ever seen. 28 points in the 4th quarter was just insane. Made a nice change from going up big early and playing prevent D for the 2nd half.
Honestly if we keep this momentum up, we'll be going into the playoffs as 'that team nobody wants to play'.
Hottest team in the NFL right now. Foles playing smart football, not turning it over, letting his playmakers do their thing. The defense is outstanding too. Haven't given up more than 21 points in 8 weeks.
Feel absolutely blessed to have Shady on my team
I think most of the recent success for the Eagles can be attributed to the O-line. Kelce and Peters are playing incredibly, and Johnson/Herremans are athletic machines! Foles has all day to play smart football when he's protected so well. Crumbling O-line? Different story in my opinion. He's not the heir to the throne in Philly just yet.
As for the D, Connor Barwin is a beast. Absolutely amazed at how good that guy has been this season. I read an article somewhere where Kelce said in an interview when it's warm up in practice, he runs the field with the cornerbacks just for laughs, and beats them all, despite being about 100 pounds heavier!
Yeah, I remember when Barwin was with the Texans. I saw some Youtube videos (local gym promotion things) and he used to train with JJ Watt and Brian Cushing. That's when you know the guys an athletic freak. Little disappointed B.Graham hasn't come along/taken the starting spot of T.Cole yet.
My guy this season though has been Cedric Thornton, wow has that guy improved. Him and Cox are building blocks for the D, throw Bennie Logan in there and it's a pretty formidable DL.
Echo what you said about the OL though. Love seeing plays where the G/T pulls, keeping up with Shady .
Green Bay down by 23 at half time, leading by 1 with 91 seconds left in the game...
