Eagles/Saints Game Thread

Anyone impressed at all by the Saints or Rams ?

I remember saying that about the Giants in 07

Rams running game

I think we would prefer the Saints - Sheldon Rankins tore his achilles and is done for the year. He was their best run stuffer.

Torn achillies? Ugh. Huge blow.

Need an injury to Michael Thomas or a very good defensive plan assuming we can get past the chiefs.

Any news if the roof will be open for the SB btw?

Anything can happen in the big game.

So much for Big **** Nick....

Playing for the Eagles doesn’t look very fun right now.

Calling Elaine Johnson! Are we having fun yet?

Saints won’t lose in the dome. 9-7 eagles team is different from the rams. If we make it there we will be matched up with the saints and it’ll suck because in Atlanta the crowd would be mostly saints fans.

I wouldn't worry about that. Most of the fans in Arizona in SB 49 were Seattle fans and they didn't really have an advantage over us. It could be loud in Atlanta but hopefully the league will have the roof open.

True even if it’s mostly saints fans, it’s not as bad as the dome.

I think the saints win handily next week. I think that spread is a gift

Neither the Saints or Rams on a neutral field will be a tougher challenge than the Chiefs in Arrowhead.

The league will order the roof open or closed depending on the weather. I was in Houston for SB51 and they had it closed.

I think the big difference is that our trajectory is pointing up right now while it was pointing down at the same time in '07.

Even last year we could've said that about the Eagles.
It's all about who schemes and executes the best when it counts.

The Chiefs offense scares me a lot more than the Saints.

Nope, Super Bowl crowds are very different, mostly pink hats, corporate types and not many of your die hard fans.... price of tickets alone assures that from $2K and up

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Lane Johnson just told the media that Alshon Jeffrey was playing with broken ribs. Not sure Jeffrey was on the injury report....hmm.

This is as good a final 4 as you could root for. Eagles suck I’m glad they are out. If we get past the chiefs, that’s huge, if we beat the rams or saints in the Sb it would be BB’s greatest accomplishment
