But the Eagles only have to do it once.  Just one time.

I'm flat out picking Eagles. You can't NOT in my position. They really could win. In with a shot despite the Belly and Brady thing. The fact it's against the greatest coach and player of all time. Who beat the Eagles in the superbowl ten years ago. In the context of injuries galore and coming from last in the NFC East the year before. It's too dramatic and magical not to get swept up in.

It's an exciting time ... however,  your team has been high in contention from the get-go.  The Packers made a late run at it in 2010/11 so it was a constant 'lose-or-go-home attitude.  It was only when we got to the SB that I genuinely believed we could win it.  And we beat a great team (Pittsburgh) to cap it all off.

The Foles thing has been the red-herring.  No one was foreseeing what has transpired.  That's the magical bit.  Written off as a questionable stand-in,  Foles can be the hero.

True. From about week 5 or so when they were 4-1 having only lost to KC everyone was positive. Then they beat the Panthers and from there it's been superbowl run this and superbowl run that.

I do remember that year. Matter of fact that was the year I fell in love with the Eagles, watching Vick. And who did you beat in Wild Card week? In those days Rodgers wasn't yet the mythical superstar he is now. I was actually living in the states and was a bit like you, once they got there it seemed like it was theirs... in the leadup though, they were just another wild card team.

Foles is a funny one for Eagles faithful. A lot of people got on his bandwagon when he started for us cos of the ridiculous numbers in his breakout year. Most knew he didn't have that killer instinct... and had some holes in his game. After he was booted, Philly sports radio has laughed at him for two years and how bad he was under Fisher. Even when he was signed as backup most had a giggle. When he took over from Wentz, the naysayers pretty much all still wrote him off. His biggest critic ate his words this week... but maintains that Foles isn't a superstar. And that the game he played last weekend shouldn't be expected with any regularity. As much as we're singing his praises... it WAS just one good game. People were ready to crown Keenum as the Vikings starter for next season until he laid an egg against the Eagles. Now he's back in the pack again. I'm confident if Foles throws three picks, people will most certainly let him fade back into quarterback obscurity.

Surely you wouldn't listen to that when there's heaps of streaming radio stations.

I’m now a casual so I’m hoping to work, which means I should be home to watch it at 2pm.

Gotta try and avoid the scores tho ?

Cousins out, Smith in. The money they paid for Smith could have been spent on Kirk a couple of years ago and they'd have a younger, better QB. Muppets.

Zebras can get [censored] - one penalty against the Pats (on a punt return). Clearly they never hold. Cheats were also smiling after a Pats TD - they don't even try to hide it.

I have an awful feeling I'm going to be cutting and pasting this in a few days.

Here's the annual Super Bowl Prop Bets Podcast with Bill Simmons & Cousin Sal

The podcast starts off with a story about a very interesting encounter that Bill Simmons had earlier in the week and they then discuss many of the 140 prob bets. 

I haven't listened to the majority of the podcast yet but it's usually good for a laugh.

I really should be picking the Pats to win as that's who I would pick if I had to put money on the game.  But to make it interesting and because I really would like the Eagles to win I'll go for an historic Philadelphia victory. 

Eagles 24  Pats 21


Gronk to score first TD.

Cox or Ertz MVP.

Brady to throw an interception and get sacked twice.

Ajayi to score twice.

Sooo... to even have a chance of winning the picks I have to take Pats. Which is what I feel is THE pick. I reckon 60% chance they win, 40% chance Eagles win.

In a dome so it'll be very very high scoring. Eagles have enough weapons, and Brady will torch Eagles' secondary.

Pats 42 Eagles 37

Here is the 'Proper' Super Bowl Prop Bets Podcast (with Bill Simmons & Cousin Sal)

Out of the tipping race but I'll tip anyway!

Eagles 24 Pats 23 

What I'm hoping for Eagles down 29 - 3 & win :P


Working til 1 tomorrow so wont get home til near 2. So good luck dappa!!!

Speak aftet I've watched the replay.

The latest 30 for 30 (The Two Bills) is worth a look in preparation for the SB ... it may not be up for long but being a doco,  it could be. 

Tells the story of the unique relationship between Bill Parcells & Bill Belichick ...

 

 

Yeah good luck @Dappa Dan

The Eagles can win but they can't afford any costly errors against these Patriots.   The game isn't over till it's over either. 

Can't give up a 5 yard penalty in the redzone against the Pats ... excellent drive by the Eagles & Foles but only 3 points.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
