Will have to go out and buy a bigger trap for this weekend my pest man has informed me that the RAT lingering around is very BIG!! I will be all over Minny +10 and will be making a play on Minny on the ML. I was at the 1st meeting between these 2 teams and let me tell you something Phila was very lucky to win that game and right now the EAGLES are not as good as they were then and without TO this team seems to be in a state of confusion! You will see many turnovers in this game and Minny will be on the + side.
Don't do it mj!
We did get lucky on two of their drives in the first half BUT remember how tough our D was in the red zone in that game?
You should also remember when Moss got his TD...the game was already ours! They had what 3 or 4 drives at best against us that were actually good drives.
IMO the line is right on...I don't think I can touch this game unless I play the total.
Good luck to us this weekend (as in E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!)
Fly Eagles Fly...on the road to victory!!!

They might have gotten in too deep with that # but even if they get more Minny money on the game they will makeup for it when they grab all the people that will be betting Phila in teasers.When the # is at 10 more people will tease the # down than up.Just like SD last week the favorite tease was SD pick and they were clearly the wrong side.Also GBAY was the big tease team Sunday and they went down now they couldnt stop the flow on the INDY part but as you know they need 2 things to happen to cash ticket. This week the play will probably go INDY and the EAGLES and i think the EAGLES will not cover. This Minny team can play when they want to and i think we have reached a point where they will do just that. Also without TO this team has no chemistry and Mcnabb will make a few bone head plays. That is my opinion and i also think Minny could go all the way to Super bowl . I am a season ticket holder for the Eagles but sometmes you have to make the right decision without that coming into play. GOOD LUCK WHATEVER SIDE YOUR ON!!
"clearly" the wrong side ???!!!
mj..da' Bolt's had the Jets at their MERCY in OT...All Coach Edwards & Co. could do at one point, was pray for the rookie to miss the field goal!
..with that said..ya' can't say it was "clearly the wrong side".
This SICILIAN has OVER 20 YEARS EXPERIENCE !!!

MJ, before you commit to the Vikings, think about what kind of team they are.
If they were any good, they would have finished higher than 8-8, right? They own the 2nd worst defense in the weak conference of the NFC. They finished the regular season with a 1-4 record while playoff birth was not yet clinched and they had everything to play for. I view them as a mediocre team that was lucky enough to just make the playoffs.
For more of my thoughts and some facts refer to my post on the NFC Divisional Round of the playoffs:

The main thing i am saying here is that Minny plays when they want to play and i believe this weekend they want to play now whether they win is a different story but i will say they do also the fact that the Eagles chemistry is all screwed up helps the situation. Take a look at the characters on this Viking team and you can see that these guys are the type that will lay down when they want to and maybe take care of their friends around them along the way!!
I wouldn't make a bet on this game until I heard a report on Moss' condition. Nobody has talked about how bad his sprained ankle is. If Moss is 100% that has to add at least 7 points to the Minn score. I wouldn't play Minn unless I knew Moss was 100%. At the end of the Packer game he could hardly walk.

Question for mj
mj I know you are a season ticket holder for Philly and probably have a better
grasp on the team then most. What about them has you on their negative side
besides T.O.? If it is the choke factor, they usually don't choke until the NFC
championship where Minn chokes earlier. Your opinion may be valuable

The only guy that can beat you in this game is Westbrook and Brian without To is not the same player because they know Pinkston or Freddie Mitchell are not going to beat them so they will key on West. The MAIN REASON IM ALL OVER MINNY is because i am TOTALLY convinced that this team plays when they want to play and this week they WILL PLAY!! Just look at the way this group of guys have played over the last couple of years and READ BETWEEN THE LINES.I just think this is the right team for them to play at this time. Good LUCK whatever side you play SLICK
The advertising is starting on ESPN they had Boomer Esiason on and they asked him who is Lock this weekend and yes he said the Eagles !! If you watch these guys on ESPN every week they are like salesman for the Bookies just like last week they asked everyone do the Vikings have a shot against Gbay "nope i think Favre at home with the weather all that BS" im telling you people dont read into this line because that is what they want you to do!! The line should have been 6 or 7 so they decide to put it at 10 and make people think boy these guys must know something im going to lay the points and you know what im going to put them in some teasers YA DA YA DA. Dont fall for this move take points and ML on MINNY just my opinion but it is my strongest play in a while . Good luck !!
