I think the Eagles offense "stinks". I'm sorry, that's the best way I can express
it.

Enough is enough. No more excuses. If I used the excuse "it's my fault" to my
boss as many times as the coach, I would have been let go long ago. Time to let
him go along with the quarterback who is past his prime, ( was he ever there?

The Eagles were pathetic. I think we're paying somebody too much money.
Let's start with cutting Andy.

I am not an Eagles Fan I will cheer for any teambut the Eagles. Fear not Eagle
fans they will win a game in the coming weeks and than we can hear all over
again how great they are. I keep hearing about the winnest team in history. I
ask you what have they ever won. Sadley they still have a chance at a
wildcard.

How can somebody be in the league 10 years and not know the rules, even if he
didn`t I wouldn`t have admitted it on TV, you know anything you say to the media
gets spread around quickly, why does he smile when he makes a bad play? he needs
to retire, washed up, very pathitic. I`m not an Eagles fan but,like everybody
else says Reid & Mcnabb need to go. COWBOYS FAN.

"A Fish rots from the Head" I was in the seafood business for many years
internationally and a fish starts to rot from the head first. Andy Reid has been
the problem with the Talent, Training, Time Management, and therefore Execution
of the Eagles for many years. When he punted the ball in the playoff game
against NO, knowing the defense had trouble stopping Bush and McAlister, he quit
on the team. He has to go. I lived in Paris France for years and flew back to
Jacksonville to see them lose that Super Bowl. They were outcoached, not
outplayed. He must go and I'm glad the rest of my hometown is yelling for his
head.

What do you think
about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Everything about the
game was a disgrace, ESPECIALLY the fact that Donovan didn't know about the
overtime/tie rule - you've got to be kidding!!!

What do you think
about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Two sorry teams neither
had the QB to win. Get rid of Reid and NcNabb. Really a sorry *** performance.

What do you
think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : I didn't know
that they train at Lehigh for Volley Ball Games. Stick to Football. NFL Volley
Ball Game. The way to go.

What do you think about
yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : It appeared to me that the
Eagles just have given up. Everyone knows that they are a much better team than
then the have shown. What the problem is, I don't know. But they do not have the
Phillies spirit.
Name : Bill Murray
Hometown : Wilmington
What do you
think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Their effort was
poor, to say the least. McNabb not knowing the rules is sad. They want to call
themselves "professioals" then they should know the rules. Imagine if other REAL
professionals like police officers, firefirghters, engineers, nurses, etc.,
didn't know the rules.

What do you think about
yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Though McNabb had a bad game
and seems like he doesnt play with any urgency or love for the game, he has not
loss his skills. All QBs have bad games. The problem is the coaching and team
management. Most players do not expect to come to Philly for longevity. They
come for a check because they know in a year or two philly will let them go.
Also, management needs to beef the team up. Its football, so why do you not have
physical players? Most of the receivers are 6'0 ft. 180 pounds soak and wet and
for every good play they make, the make two bad ones. Those recievers couldnt
start anywhere else in the league. U needed a power back for years to compliment
westbrook because they've lost about three critical games this year because they
couldnt get a yard, and they need phsyical run stopping d-line as well. All they
have is speed rushers for the pass. Coaching is horrible because their play
calling is too predictable. Also, the all or nothing blitz schemes tend to shoot
them in the foot. The problem is much bigger than McNabb!

about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Its time for number 5
and Andy to go, bring on Kevin Kobb.

What do you think
about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Well i dont take it as
a loss. i know they played a bad team but the eagles defense was a positive note
keeping them in the game. In overtime it was a positive for the eagles that the
bengals kicker should of made the field goal and the eagles would of lost but he
missed. A tie is definently better than a loss especially when the other team
had u beat with a field goal and he misses. The eagles can still make the
playoffs with donovan and reid. If the eagles win next week and the cowboys and
redskins lose then the eagles would have the same wins and have one less loss
then the redskins and cowboys! They can still make the playoffs and i think they
can!

What do you think about
yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : it was a disgrace....Andy and
McNabb have to go...its time for Kevin Kolb to step in...we are not going
anywhere with them at the wheel..And against a one win team....I cant take
another Andy Reid press conference saying "I gotta do a better job".... if I
kept saying that to my boss I would have been gone a year ago.

DISGRACE.....I WASTED A BEAUTIFUL SUNDAY AFTERNOON TO WATCH THAT CRAP!!!!!

What do
you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : May be the
worst NFL game I have ever seen. McNab is out of chances. His smiling face after
each failure makes me wild. they should call him Styme, because he stymies every
drive, and grins on the sidelines like Stymie from the Our Gang Comedies. I
would like to see Donovan,Andy , and Marty in Detroit next year, they all
deserve to be there!!! A total disgrace.

What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : How
stupid can he be?????
Name : Tony
Hometown : Cinnaminson, NJ
What do you think
about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Andy should get some
advise from Charlie and bench a player like Charlie did to Myers when he was
sent to the minors. It's evident that McNabb is a horrible QB especially now
that he won't run.
Name : Chris
Hometown : Yardley, PA
What do you think
about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : How can you be an NFL
quarterback and not know that a NFL game can end in a tie. In the 10 years
McNabb has been in the league he has never looked at the standings in the
newspaper or on-line and wondered what it means when you see W L T across the
top of the standing columns. Absolutely ridiculous. I hope he never thought of a
coaching career.
Name : Simon
Hometown : Levittown, Pa.
What do you think
about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : I don't think McNabb
could see from under his helmet, it's too big for his head. If he didn't know
about the overtime he should not be a quarterback. What a turkey. Andy and him
have to go, same story , it's my fault
Name : Tired in
Hometown : Philadelphia
What do you think
about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : "If we knew we weren't
getting another 15 of OT, we would have played to win." Right, there's always
the next possesion, the next game, the next season. Please, put us out of our
misery. Now. Get rid of Reid and McNabb.

What do you
think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : I think mcsnabby
is only worried about his millions and he does not care if they win or not!
can't you tell? hes a phoney who wants money, right sweeties?

What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : My feelings about yesterday's game is PATHETIC! Truly pathetic. We all need to face facts if the Eagles could not beat the 1-8 Bengals then why should they go to the playoffs. They know they are much better than this and why are they performing this way. In my opinion, I think they are shutting down and don't want to play for Andy Reid anymore. It's time for this era to move on and lets find someone else to coach this team. I'm sick and tired of this. I know we don't play the game and we don't put our bodies in harms way but we do pay to watch them. We buy all the gear and we support as much as we can but can you blame the fan base for being highly upset. I really believe it's over. Better luck next year is what we can say right now. I will always love my team but now changes need to be made because we are tired of the crap. The "Tie in the NFL" rule situation is crazy. There has been many ties in the NFL. Of course they are far and in between but as NFL players, come on guys you should have known. Well, I wish the Eagles well for the rest of the season but my message to Banner and Lurie is you better think long and hard for the rest of this season. We need a change and we need it now!
Name : Jack
Hometown : Philadelphia
What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Andy Reid should be fired by the end of this week!

What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Re.Tie game rule,I'll BET DONOVAN KNOWS WHAT HIS TAKE HOME PAY IS. Time for ANDY REED to leave.
Name : Jim
Hometown : Quakertown
What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Typical. Looking at Donovan's face says it all. Just going through the motions without a care in the world. Smiling all the time. Saying"Opps! my fault." But no one is doing anything about it. I think its time for Cobb.
Name : Pat Bailey
Hometown : Hammonton, N.J.
What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Are you kidding me!! This story is old, tired and needs to end. The Eagles are so talented as we have seen many times. I think the Steelers are a tough and excellent team and the Eagles took down the Steel Curtain but they struggled with the Bengals!! Somethings wrong with this picture and it's been wrong for a long time. I think they need to bring in Charlie and the Phillies organization to teach them how to select good players that will work well together and bring in THE WORLD CHAMPION BAD BOYS OF BASEBALL to teach them about team work and playing because they love the sport. I'm not the kind of fan that only loves the team when they're winning but this Eagles thing is beyond a tough opponent or someone having a bad day it's down right RIDICULOUS!!! It's just so disappointing when you know they have the talent but they just cant get the job done. Go figure!! I guess next excuse will be the Linc was constructed on some sacred burial ground bringing all sorts of bad luck.

What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : I think Andy Reid will never win a Superbowl, since better coaches are always out coaching him. The Eagles? play calling is predictable and other teams seem to study their tendencies in certain situations, from their lack of play selections and bad time management? The facts are that Donavon is not a consistence quarterback that performs with intensity for four quarters and from game to game, he sometime shows a lack of confidence in himself and his abilities. Don?t get me wrong, he is a nice guy, but he lacks the mental toughness of other winning Quarterbacks who won the Superbowl.

What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Ok, First of all mcnabb sucks and hes is a loser, how could anyone even expect him to win a wildcard game let alone a superbowl game! he sucks worse than a fish!!!!!!
Name : Tom

What do you think about
yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : I think I found out the only
thing worse than watching 4 quarters of the Eagles/Bengals, is watching 5
quarters of the Eagles/Bengals..

think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Well, I'll tell
you ! Get rid of mcnabb for starters, then hire a new coach! get it eagle

What do you think
about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : I thought it was a
typical game for the E-girls! They suck and always will! and McNabb not knowing
the rules of the NFL,come on.....10 years in the league and you don't know the
rules? maybe he should read the rules over instead of talking abot the super

What do you think about
yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : I think it is absolutely
pathetic. Plus they had 60 minutes to win that game and absolutely looked
horrible. McNabb and Reid need to go
Name : Ben Smith
Hometown : Reading
What do you think
about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : I think that its really
stupid that they only go 1 quarter in OT because then if it's still a tie game,
then no one wins. They should make a new rule that it can go as long as needed
to win the game. I think Donovan should have known the rules though.!!
Name : Joe J
Hometown : Lafayette Hill
What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? :
That was a PATHETIC effort the Eagles showed yesterday. Even worse was that McNabb
thought they played until someone wins. Ten years in the NFL and he doesn't now
the rules!!!!!! UNEXSCUSABLE. Time to clean house at the LINC. From Joe Banner
to Andy Reid to the ball boy.

seen a better played midget league game then the one displayed between million
dollar athletes of Eagles and Bengals

What do you
think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Absolutely one of
the worst performances in Eagles history. The worst coaching and quarterbacking
since the days of Kuharich, Kotite, Norm Snead, and Doug Peterson. I am
embarrassed to be an EAGLES fan. Jeff Lurie are you listening?
Name : Irv
Hometown : Jenkintown
What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : Where
was the offense, the defense? You can blame the wind on one interception, but
three and one fumble. Was Donovan asleep?
Name : Chuck

What do you think about yesterday's Eagles game against the Bengals? : What
happened to the offensive line to open things up for Westbrook? Cin. isn't
anywhere near that good or are the Eagles just getting worse.
