again i think it would make a big difference if we had a tall cornerback...just dont think a 5"10 corner can stick a wideout thats 6"3...and that was proven today.....
not all corner cant ignore the poor clock management in the 4th..why pass when all u had to do is run out clock...going for it on 4th down with the lead dont make a bit of sence....
THE THINGS THAT MAKE U GO HUMMMMMMMM......
GO EAGLES....NEXT WEEK...

As an Eagles fan, I will very rarely react to a loss this way... but the Eagles just quit playing. They got overly-confident with their lead and just stopped trying. I also agree that our corners are too small to cover a lot of the taller receivers. There were just a lot of mistakes on both sides of the ball in the last 30 minutes of play for the Eagles. We were so close to showing all the critics our dominance.... but all we did was raise more questions. We lost the game for ourselves. It was heart-breaking. But, we still have 14 games left in the season. Let this be a learning experience for the birds.
GO EAGLES!!!!!!

Jay, I admire your passion as I also bleed Eagles green, and I'm really banged up and bleeding now.
I don't know if it was terrible clock management in the 4th --that's too easy to say. The Eagles could not convert on 4th and a short 1, and I don't blame Reid for going for it, but I may have just let McNabb dive over center there.
You also had the killer Westbrook fumble --right call, bad execution. Plus, Stallworth and LJ both dropped easy catches in OT.
A lot went wrong in the end, and the Eagles were playing with their 3rd, 4th and 5th corners, without Lito and Rod Hood.
ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRgggghhhhhhh, this s**ked!

I am so bummed. I was at the game and I still do not believe what I saw today. Was the 2nd half a bad dream???
Our corners are too small to go against someone like Plaxico.
There was no excuse for not capitalizing on the Trotter interception and then getting 1st down when it was 4 and 1. That killed them.

It wasn't Hood's fault he got hurt and we had to let some 4th-stringer cover Toomer/Burress.
