    Looks like our favorite squad opens the season in Atlanta on Monday night. I can't wait to hear justbry explaining how the Mike Vick experience will guarantee his favorite team starting the season 1-0. Perhaps he'll explain that Atlanta's new found lb core will contain McNabb & Co.

    Lucky... the Ravens might start off with a 0-1 because we are playing against the Colts.

    I think the Ravens should be able to take the Colts... They've really improved this off season on both sides of the ball. The Colts will have their hands full...especially considering they haven't done much of anything to improve this off season.

    Thats right! The Mike Vick experience is going to guarantee my Falcons with a 1-0 start. I wont explain how because you already know how. What better way to start off a new season than with a win against you guys. Oh and yes the new LB core we got is going to contain McNabb and the rest of your boys. :cheesey:

    who will contain TO then?

    no matter who ur new LBs are, no linebacker in the league can cover BWest, few corners can contain TO, and now that LJ will be number 1 TE, and the only TE, he will get to show what i said he had the last 2 years...finally haha

    our defense, like the bucs, are the only defenses that mike vick has played and done nothing agianst, we have the best player against vick in jevon kerase, and we we have ND Kalu who isnt as good as burgess, but a better pass rusher and faster

    Wow! You actually believe the things you just said. Dont you? What do you mean there is no LB in the league that can cover Westbrook? What about an Eagles LB they are the best of the best afterall so I'm sure one of them could easily cover him. (Sarcasm, incase you didnt notice) He isnt THAT good you know. He's decent but not the greatest RB out there.

    True, Vick hasnt been able to do much of anything against your defense YET. That doesnt mean he never will. Vick and the Falcons have beaten the Bucs and they will beat the Eagles too.

    i never said the eagles linebackers are the best, i said no linebacker in the league can cover him. When westbrook is in the slot, what LB can cover him? idk any, im not saying a corner or a saftey cant cover him, because they probably can, but if u put a corner or safety on him then take a S away from TO, and have every1 playing man...thats unless ur in nickel of course, but how do u know when to go in nickel when BWEST lines up in the backfeild and motions to the slot?...

    You dont have to say the Eagles LBs are the best because others have implied it enough. The comment wasnt directed at you, it was just generally speaking for Eagles fans. Man, no offense though but you are just talking as if Westbrook is unstoppable or something, and that just isnt the case. I do see what you're saying in a way though.

    Not again... just watch these two birds go at it. Eagles versus Falcons, and the Raven that stands and watch.

    Birds will battle man. Its just become a rivalry theres no other way to describe it really. Such an unfair battle too, because theres tons of Eagles on this forum, and I'm the only Falcon. You know the Raven should be helping the Falcon out!

    First of all, when did i say BWest was unstoppable? i said no LB could cover him, i said DBs could. is that saying hes unstoppable?

    no1 has implied the eagles LBs are the best, and this eagles-falcons thing isnt a rivalry considering u we beat u in almost every position

    QB-McNabb over Vick
    RB-Westbrook over Dunn/Duckett
    WR-Owens over Price
    TE-Crumpler over Smith

    ok were up 3-1

    DBS-no1 in the league has a better group then we do
    LBs-close, Trotter or Brooking take ur pick
    DLine-pretty even, but Kearse over Kerney, Coleman over Simon so take ur pick

    Ok, lets get some things straight here. 1st of all I said you were talking AS IF he were unstoppable, nowhere in that post did I say you actually SAID it, because we both know he isnt unstoppable. You saying that would just be an incorrect statement, with no logic to it whatsoever.

    2nd, the Eagles and Falcons have become a rivarly on this board between members and in the NFL, remember the Eagles beat the Falcons in the NFCCG. I think they want revenge for that. Clearly you arent aware of what a rivalry is because its not about whos better at what position or which team is better or who won the most games. A rivalry is all about competition, and competing for the samething. Explain to me what that has to do with some Eagles players being better at certain positions or the Eagles beating the Falcons in more games?

    3rd, I will say that there are some Eagles fans on this board who do infact talk like every player at every position on the Eagles is the best in the league, therefore implying it. I'm also pretty sure there are other members here who will agree with me on that.

    As far as your analysis on the players of the Eagles and Falcons go I am fine with that, for now. However that was never the point.

    Ah...the ravens have a better group of DB's with out a doubt and a bunch of replacements in New England did better than your DB's and I'm not so sure I wouldn't take the combo of Dunn and Duckett over Westbrooke...at least they would provide balance to your offense when westbrooke doesn't and dunn is basically the same guy with a lesser QB....with that said the Eagles should win and win easy as long as they show up because Atlanta is handicapped and the QB positiion. By the way welocome back dawk..long time no see

    Urlacher can cover westbrook. He is just as fast, and way bigger. He can also stop vick, and has done so sucessfully spying him. The only reason Westbrook had the success he had vs bears last year is becuase he was out injured.

    Nah, I'll consider this an NFC thing, I'll let you guys duke it out and until someone goes the the Superbowl THEN, I'll settle with the victory. But first, I gotta get the Steelers.

    I am sure there is a LB that can cover BW. Allow me to show some bias and say Eddie Moore or Corey Jenkins (played Safety in college) may be able to cover him.

    The obvious solution is to always play nickel when BW is on the field regardless of where he lines up. I am most familar w/ Miami so I am using their personnel as a hypothetical. The crafty veteran (Madison) can cover #36 leaving Poole & Howard with the 2 WR's.

    Let me continue and say that TO is on the field w/ BW. You can roll a safety to double TO as the Eagles 2nd best WR is the unproven Greg Lewis.

    As long as the defense plays a soft zone, you can mix & match coverage to defend when both 81 & 36 are on the field. I think Belichick did it in Early Feb w/ somewhat decent results.
