JackStroud Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 I'll be here, but my Iggs will still be at the top of the NFCE. And I guess you're losing your eyesight because the emoticoN I used was directed to Nas' post. My reply to you was emoticon free Jackie boy. Don't backpedal on the under-inflated ball BS now Jack. You were serious and you know it. Serious as a heart attack and mad as hell yesterday morning. As I've already stated elsewhere, I fully expect the Iggs to lose in game two and YES Jackie boy... I'll be right here taking my lumps like a real man. Not whining about under-inflated footballs, calls the refs missed or any other BS excuse for why your team put up more points than mine did... Unless they do put up more points than your team AGAIN Ok Ok you are a good poster........I felt so bad for poor Dr Crue last night, he's a southern gentleman with a good heart. But I was kidding about the balls.....I knew it was a sloppy rain soaked field.....apparently Coughlin and Gilbride did not notice the conditions or they would have settled for a out pass to Cruz or just kicked it from the 27..congrats for dodging another Eli 4th QTr comeback.

Coughlin said yesterday that he played it conservative because of "all of the bad things that could have happened." And I respect him for that for taking the heat off Eli and Tynes with that comment. I wish the Walrus would own up to his mistakes and ego trips like your coach does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStroud Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Well today he said he ordered the long pass as his philosophy is to always be aggressive He admitted it was a bad idea Barden is not to blame......saying had he not assaulted Namdi it was a sure INT Just a clusterfuck all way around Since we have declared a sort of truce I would be very happy if you admitted tackling Tuck from behind is not legal offensive line play.....would that kill you?

I saw quite a few holds on our guys as well. They were letting them play. Thing is, you have to put enough points on the board to overcome a bad call here and there. I've been an Iggs fan for a very long time and amongst my circle; claiming that the refs favored the Eagles in ANY game will get you laughed out of the room.

He is very similar to McCoy in that you have to leave him in their to eventually find his holes. Coughlin has this "loyalty" thing for injured Vets that sometimes drives me nuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackStroud Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 He is best in open space (who isnt)......has the Bradshw disease of no patience, and runs straight into his own tackles ass If we used him with pitchouts, reverses (not a big Coughlin favorite), and screens he could do significant damage. I'd use him as a slot receiver.......he has great hands, and you saw the speed.....he is also very rugged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackStroud Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 This is just not an out of the box organization.......not early adopters... As before Bs before Cs They believe in everything by the book with possible exception of running the ball to the middle of a sloppy field to win a hard fought knife fight.

Toomer and him connected coming out of halftime one year.... http://kerrycfan.tripod.com/newsarchive/dissection.html ^^From a google search ^^ Here's one he didn't connect with Toomer on....during the 2000 season..... http://articles.nydailynews.com/2000-12-24/sports/18157613_1_giants-safety-shaun-williams-amani-toomer-tiki-barber Coughlin doesn't run them, though, so to the best of my knowledge, we've yet to see an Eli flea flicker...but there was a time when the Giants under Fassel ran trick plays.

Thats a funny story.........reminds me of going to the waterfalls in the Dominacan Republic and my son felt sorry for a native kid and gave him his expensive Nike Hat......giving someone a hat has a lot of meaning.......so you are an Eagles fan and do not actually reside there? I lived in philly PT for a year back in the 80's.......great restaurants and women there BTW you were right about calling the tight game that would come down to a FG , congrats on that. I am not suffering from that loss anymore.......actually very pumped that our young talent is getting opportunity to get on the field....it will stand us in good stead later in the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
