Lightbulb Did The Eagles Expose The Patriots?

Both sides of the Patriots were exposed on Sunday night, a game the Patriots eventually won.

Who writes these articles, chicken little? You'd think the people running this joint would have a little perspective.

Bob George wrote it. Honestly, I'm really a little surprised he bought into it.

They played their worst game of the season against a team that played its best game of the season and still won. It's not encouraging, but it didn't "expose" them either. Anyone that didn't realize that our LBs are slow before now shouldn't be in the NFL in any capacity anyways.

Not to nitpick but I don't think the Ravens have a great defense anymore. They've given up 30+ two weeks in a row, including today against a Philip Rivers-led offense.

Actually I thought that article was pretty well written.
The Patriots DO need to reprogram and rethink their offense and defense packages. The gameplan this week almost lost it for them.
McDaniel has to think of ways to get Moss involved early. A hot Moss makes the offense work so MUCH BETTER because of what his presence creates.

I think the Patriots can STILL got 16-0, it's just not going to be easy for them. They're going to have to rethink some things, like defending the in cut rout, and they're going to need to make their offense multidimensional so defenses can't load up vs the pass and Randy Moss.

Ugh. Why do people expect that the Patriots are going to play this poorly every game the rest of the way? Not going to happen. Reality: they played their worst and still won. Plus from a scheming standpoint, you never see the same Pats team twice. But if you listen to the mediots this week, you would think they lost the game.

Edit - To be fair, this isn't a criticism of the article in particular, as I haven't read it yet. It's a general statement on my part.

Yes. The Patriots are fraudulent.

Just because they didn't rack up 52 points on a solid defensive team shouldn't bring on the panic buttons. The Eagles came to play. As I asked in another thread, where the heck has that Eagles team been all year? That team would be ruling the NFC right now.
