I have never sen a team hold as much and not get called as the eagles. There were numerous takedowns. The one on Hovan was the worst non-call I have ever seen. He was actually tackled from behind....no call. McNabb throws a TD.

No wonder you have the best offense in the league. You hold on every play. Terrible.

Holding happens all the time in the NFL.. it's all about technique and not getting caught.

If Philly has the 'best offense' it's because they have the best O-line.

Please tell that to Andy Reid who refuses to run the ball and control the game clock. Explain to me how a team out-gains another team by over 300 total yards but loses the time of possession??

That sort of thing used to happen to Oakland sometimes when they ran the west coast offense.
The west coast's short pass is essentially it's version of running the ball.
You can't milk the clock as effectively with that style, and you tend to foster an offensive line that is more 'soft' than a grind-it-down-their-throat line.
Myself, I had a love-hate relationship with the west coast offense.
There's some good and bad that comes along with it.

Bill Parcells says that the most telling stat line in an NFL game is rushing attempts.
He's probably right.
Last week, for example, the team that had the most rushing attempts won 13 games out of 13 played.

Ok.....being completely objective.....Hovan was tackled from behind by an Eagle o-lineman(Runyan I think). No...literally dragged down from behind right in front of McNabb who danced away(probably saying what a great block). It happened repeatedly all game. I hope they crack down on that unit.

Sin,
The Donkeys' Offensive line since 1996 :meds:

I honestly didn't notice it and the Eagles have been flagged for quite a few penalties this year (at least it seems that way) so I'll take a game where they get some breaks for once.

Just watch a replay of the TD he scrambles to his right and hits brown(i think) in the endzone. Hovan comes right up the middle breaks free and then is flat out tackled. Everyone near us in teh stadium were screaming for the obvious hold. No call. This happened at least 5-7 times on key plays. I understand if it has no affect on the actual play but these are times when a sack likely would have occured. Oh well...I'll take the hail o'field goal.

Nope! And they never got away with any illegal blocks during Danta Hall’s big returns either!

NOPE, just the one against your Donkeys in '03. Shit happens. :lol:
"just the one" Try at least two! On one play! Maybe more, but not a single person including the refs missed the 2 that happened right in front of them! But I digress…Shit does happen!

Your fucking team won on a demoralizing 62 yard field goal. Shup up and enjoy it ok? ;)


BTW, how'd you like Westbrook's run at the end? Pretty sweet, huh?

Tell me you're kidding.

No I'm telling you to take the blinders off and put the box of sugar down and realize your team got away with as much holding as anyone.

It was great outside of all the holds.

And BTW, Trexie is right. I know it'll sound like sour grapes, so there wasn't any reason to bring it up, But Ellis & Ware were held the same 5-7 times at least. Ellis in particular
