I just realized this. Does it concern you?
We only beat 2 playoff teams this year (CAR, 49rs), lost to 3 (CAR, NE, CAR).
Beat 8 non-playoff teams, lost to 2 (STL, NYJ). Is this cause for concern? |
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
No
You can only beat who is on your sxhedule. |
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
We're overdue to beat some more playoff teams and the playoffs is the perfect place to do this.
|
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
Nope.
My only concern is not turning the ball over Saturday. |
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
Carolina and NE got lucky on those last drives and we have the chance to beat 3 more playoff teams on the way to the SB.
|
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
We can beat any of these teams, if the right N.O. Saints show up to play.
|
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
Nope! The playoffs are a whole new season, everyone starts out 0-0
|
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
No because the Eagles only beat GB, and that was without Rogers, so effectively the Eagles have not beaten a playoff team all year. If anyone watched that game, I did, GB easily, and I mean easily, wins that game if AR plays. They drove up and down the field on them.

Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
I didn't know that we played Carolina 3 times. :) You're only considered a playoff team if you make the playoffs, and only 12 teams can do that. They are all out to eliminate one another. So to try to validate a teams existence in the playoffs solely on who they beat and didn't is too subjective. It's not like 20 teams make the playoffs and the other 12 are out.

Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
The 2010 Seahawks hadn't beaten any playoff teams.
|
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
A little, what brothers me more though is the extreme pendulum of blowouts. It's not a characteristic of a great team.
|
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
My concern? His name is LeSean McCoy. If Philly can run the ball and win time of possession...it keeps Brees on the sidelines.

They aren't concerned with that stat. Their goal is to wear down the defense by running plays with limited breaks. Where other teams take their time to get different packages in the Eagles just hurry back to the line and run another play. It is effective unless you can stop them and get off the field. We need to win the TOP game and hopefully by a good amount so they can't use that tactic to tire our d out. All that said, you're are darn accurate we need to slow shady down. |
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
Love the positive vibes!
Keep thinking about "the way we lose" games we've lost and frankly, we've GIVEN those games away... Can't wait to see how well we execute Saturday |
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
What does concern me is Shady McCoy.. The rams ran over us.. Which worries me that he will also and we won't win if he has his way.
|
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
Saw that stat last week that we are 25-0 when we don't turn the ball over
..we just need to take care of the ball and we win!!!!! |
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
My concern is turn overs. McCoy is gonna get his but I think Drew can out pace him IF he can keep from turning the ball over.

So for now, to the future. Just now, the only concern relevant to the Philly game is our turning up to play. |

Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
All of the analyzing doesn't mean much. Just play as well as we have seen them play this year and win the freaking game!!!!

What concerns me is that you watched us play CAR times this season. BTW NE may be a playoff team right now but they were sucking arse when we lost to them. Much to so about nothing. |
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
I'll try to find it but I saw a post on twitter that showed the strength of schedule numbers and the SAINTS had the highest (read: toughest) of all the playoff teams.

Giveaways - 5 Takeaways - 1 I doubt there's a team in NFL history that won a playoff game with 5 turnovers. |
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
The number of players on IR is reason for concern. And I believe only three of those losses came under Paytons watch.

Win turnover ratio and hold McCoy below 100 yards. Win.
Realization of concerns? A Jedi craves not these things. |
Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
ask me sunday

Re: I just realized this. Does it concern you?
Hopefully we have learned our lesson on closing a game on both sides of the ball
