Whats up with all the fear playing the Eagles? (1 Viewer)

During that last Super Bowl when those two teams threw for an incredible NFL passing record, the camera shifted to Wentz for a few seconds. Just long enough for all of us to see him tell another player that this would be him next year.

From that moment forward I've seen Wentz as a Me guy instead of a team guy.

I'll take Foles. He's the complete opposite. He's a team player. St. Nick has a bag full of gifts for everyone instead of Wentz who only passes em out to his favorites. And all of that running he does that gets him hurt all of the time? For what? 'Me' again?

Foles is my pick.

But I'd rather see him go some place else. Denver would have been nice place for him.
It’s funny, stats are similar in terms of wentz and foles this year but you guys win way more games with foles. I don’t think at all wentz would have won against the rams and Texans in those do or die games you had. Wentz has more talent than foles for sure, but foles if pressure doesn’t get to him manages the game better than wentz who is kind of like of erratic and can’t sustain drives.

I think there might be some inner resentment from the offensive side toward Wentz for keeping them out of the game the way he did. They won't admit to it, but it's just human nature.

I could be wrong, but that's jut a general feeling I get.

Saints beat Seattle 34-19 in 2010 during the regular season.
 
Saints are not losing to Philadelphia. Bottom line. All I care about. Blah blah Foles this Foles that. Saints are winning this game. I don't care by how much. All I know is we are not losing
 
Any all time QB list with Mark Sanchez in top 10 is suspect. Means that stat is meaning less, as presented. Need to put more constraints on the criteria for creating the list. Like min number of playoff games or something.
agree, should be atleast a 5 game min. requirement
 
What changed from the cowboys game on?

Cowboys were the first team to stop acting like we had a deep threat without Ginn and started sitting down on everything underneath. Others copied after that. Ginn was back for steelers and we put up 31. I'm not worried
 
You don't get it? Do you even Saints, bro? We're one Brett Favre brainfart away from being the most tragic postseason team in NFL history. Nearly every playoff exit we have is by a flukey team who shouldn't scare us having a play nicknamed on their way to winning.

Beastquake - when a 7-9 Seattle literally ran over us
Minneapolis Miracle?
The Vernon Davis Spectacular Showcase and ... okay, not a nickname, but you get the point.

What are we scared of? We're scared of waking up on Monday having witnessed the Philly Cheese Fake or the Brotherly Shove or the Quaker State Shake 'n Bake or some other nonsense miracle play that will be shown ad infinitum of TV commercials, on ESPN, during every football broadcast involving either the Eagles or the Saints forever.

We're scared of the thought of sitting at home and watching the Dallas Cowboys in the Super Bowl all because we couldn't stop Nick Foles from scrambling for 16 yards to convert a crucial 3rd and long.

Don't tell me about your numbers and matchups. It's not a rational fear, but try telling someone who's been mauled by a bear that he doesn't need to be afraid of that grizzly on the horizon.
2nd most. 28-3. Never forget

Also, defense wise, philly doesn’t have the personnel not even close to try to duplicate Dallas blueprint anyway.

I don’t know why some saints fans are so worried about the eagles front four. Brees pretty much had the time all game to throw at will and open lanes for Ingram and kamara. It’s the same front four as before. Nick is not going to be able to will that front four to suddenly play like warren sapp. I urge you to watch the game again on nfl replay or the coaches tape if you can get that and see for yourself how and why the eagles team could not stop us.

The only difference in the Eagles front four is that Tim Jernigan didn't play in the first game but he will in this one. I still don't see that as any reason to think that things will be different.

I don't think the score will resemble the first game but I also still think the Saints are a better team. We'll find out in a couple of days though won't we?

You’re right, my mistake but he is not a super game changer.
