Well you guys have fun Sunday!!! Those tix prices almost seem reasonable for the 2nd round of the playoffs.

As I have said above, the thing I’m looking at is that I see the G-Men having problems scoring Sunday. Now as solid as that offensive line is, and as rock solid as Brandon is, I really think without that big, physical receiver, I give the Eagles’ secondary the opportunity to make some big plays giving Donovan a short field to work with.

If Brian Westbrook can have 1 of those games and can offset BJ, the difference is Donovan making enough plays to survive a nailbiter of a game......

I agree with all your thoughts. Westbrook is one of the few players in the NFL (IMHO) who can, essentially, win a game by himself.

However, I think Coaches Tom, Kevin and Steve will throw enough change-ups in the game plan to beat the Iggles 24-13.

I agree too. Without Burress to defend, the Eagles D will “cheat” tight to the line of scrimmage on 1st & 2nd down trying to stop the run and force some obvious passing downs, where they’ll try to force Eli into some bad plays.
I think the Giants may have to throw more on 1st & 2nd down to keep the Eagles D honest. As far as McNabb goes, well who the heck knows? Hopefully he’ll have a short field and Westbrook & Buckhalter can be used effectively to take some pressure off him. I also think Special teams will be a huge factor in this game.
