Exactly...I know you Pittsburgh fans are pissed, but if somebody ran into your kicker like that, you know you'd want the call. It's only escalated because of the situation. If that happened in the 8th week in the season in the 1st quarter or something, you wouldn't give it a second thought...a penalty is a penalty.

And then there is the Eagles...we were good enough to win, though the offense was a bit sluggish through a couple quarters. Our defense stepped it up, we bent but did not break and that holding penalty when Vick scored was HUGE. The roughing the punter was pretty huge also. Fairly ugly game, but it doesn't matter how you win them in the playoffs.

Man did you see Brian Dawkins's hit on Mike Vick. :eek: BOOM! That was awesome!

The Germanator · 01-12-2003, 05:08 PM

Yeah, and it made it all the better knowing that it wasn't a TD.

And did you see Staley's block on Thrash's TD? :eek:

Brian Dawkins is one of my favourite players in the league....he has been since last year

Manning, Urlacher, Harrison, James, Freeney, Dawkins, Bledsoe, Shockey

but I'm cheering for the Bucs...a close family friend is a die hard fan

ZebraRampage · 01-15-2003, 05:58 PM

I think that if the Eagles blitz Brad Johnson enough then the Eagles should have a really good chance. I love when they send Dawkins and Bishop on the Blitz cause most of the time it works, and Dawkins usually gets a big hit.

Eww...I hate Shockey, I can't stand cocky players like that no matter how good they are, I'll never respect him.

But, you're still cool because you like Dawkins, best safety in the league.

But, you're rooting for the Bucs, you aren't cool anymore.

I don't respect him nearly as much as I respect a lot of players in the NFL...but I added him to my list because he's fun to watch...I've played tight end, and it's really a great position...he's one of the most exciting players in the NFL, that's the only reason why I listed him...

Germy: ok, you're cool again

Stu: Go Bucs!

Well I am also rooting for the Bucs because I have family in Tampa and I hate Philly. Is there anyone here that thinks Tennessee can beat Oakland?

Professor S · 01-17-2003, 10:48 PM

Why do you hate Philly? Jealousy is not an attractive trait to have...

01-18-2003, 12:47 AM

Well I live in Pgh and ever since the Flyers intentionally injured Lemieux like 12-15 yrs ago, I have hated them. I don't like any teams from Philly, but I do like McNabb. I wish he played for another team so I could be a fan of his but I just don't like Philly. I have talked to like 200 people about the game this week and 98% of them like Philly to win, and most of the time the general public is wrong, so it is looking good for Tampa Bay to meet Oakland in SuperBowl 37... at least I hope so
