This is ProFootballTalk's pick for our game:

In an effort to spook Carolina quarterback Jake Delhomme into another six-turnover performance, the Eagles will be breaking out Cardinals uniforms in the locker room, Mean Machine-style.

Even if they were wearing leather helmets and wool jerseys, Philly would have the superior team.

Pick: Eagles 28, Panthers 16

I guess we have turned into the Lions in their eyes.

Apparently they are not taking into consideration the issues we have at MLB, the rookie starting safety, and the fact the we have an thrown together O-line that have never played together in a game and apparently will now be missing 2 starters with Shawn Andrews in shorts today during practice.

I think the Eagles will score but if the Eagles hold the Panthers to 16, it will because the Panthers didn't execute, not becuase we stopped them.

You've gotta be kidding. Would someone please start another disrespect thread? and dont stop until we have EVERY camera-man for ESPN's prediction. Hit up Fox to, id love to hear what Jillian Anderson has to. Her oppinion means alot to me

Its not the prediction that makes me angry, its the poo talking that goes along with it, like we are the f*cking Lions or Raiders.

I expect them to lose also. Doesn't mean I won't be watching and hoping.

Why? If the Eagles lose someone from the O-line or if Gaither goes down at MLB they will be pulling me from the stands to fill in. That is scary.

Don't be surprised if they sign 84 year old Jon Runyan back before the weekend and he is on the field Sunday....that is how bad it is right now. The Panthers are catching the Iggles at the perfect time.....of course the Panthers have a few issues of their own they are trying to work out also...

You know, if the last time I paid any real attention to the Panthers was in the last game they played, I would probably think they were headed for a crushing defeat too.

Until the team does something to erase the stench of the playoffs, then it deserves the derision that comes with it.

I am trying to figure out how they are so superior to us. I came up with the below list by trying to be as subjective as posible.

Quaterback - Advantage Eagles - McNabb is just plain better than Delhomme

Runningbacks - Advantage Panthers - Double Trouble is proven as the best combo, Westbrook is getting old and McCoy is unproven

Offensive Linemen - Advantage Panthers - We are returning the same line from last year and their line has not played a single game together including preseason

Wide Receivers - Advantage Panthers - Smith is the a top receiver and Moose almost had 1,000 yards last year, DeSean Jackson is good, Kevin Curtis is decent and Maclin is an unknown

Tight Ends - Push - King is reliable and Rosario and Barnidge have shown flashes, Celek made some big catches in the playoffs and Alex Smith stinks

Defensive Linemen - Advantage Eagles - We have Peppers but also major questions marks at DT, Eagles have a good rotation of almost 8 guys

Linebackers - Advatage Panthers - Beason and Davis are beasts, Jordan, Gaither and Gocong don't scare anyone

Cornerbacks - Advantage Eagles - Panthers have Gamble and Marshall and some unknowns, Eagles have Samuel, Brown and Hobbs

Safeties - Advantage Panthers - Harris can hit and Godfrey has gained experience, Mikell is solid but Macho Harris is a rookie

Kicker - Push - Both Akers and Kasay are reliable

Punter - Push - Baker and Rocca are about equal

Special Teams - Advantage Eagles - Panthers have questions marks when it comes to returners, Eagles have explosive Jackson, Demps and Maclin

From this list I only see that they are clearly better at QB, D-Line, CBs and Special Teams. But somehow they are clearly superior.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Please don't tell me you just averaged the QB ratings of all of Shough's starts to declare his QB rating as better 😂 I hope you don't actually believe that's how it works.  Otherwise please show your math on Shough's QB rating as a starter. Thanks for including Shough's 2.6 more Rushing YPG in this comparison, really doesn't feel at all like you're desperately grasping for as many straws as you can here. The truth is, it takes a statistical bottom-tier starting QB like Bryce Young to make Shough look simply OK by comparison.  And that bottom-tier starting QB still, by your own admission, puts up more points for his offense than Shough.  You're framing this as damning for Bryce, but in reality the fact that him and Bryce are so neck-and-neck is shining Shough in a very poor light. Yes Shough is a rookie and Young is a 3rd year starter, which is why I circle back to my position of Shough having a "pretty solid, encouraging rookie season" whereas you're fanboying over him.  Never mind that Shough is 2 years older than Bryce though.  Normally yes a QB's experience in the league is invaluable...but Bryce is kind of a unique situation considering the biggest complaint with him is he is too physically limited to succeed in the league.  Do we think a QB can overcome severe physical limitations simply with experience?  Also I remember wayyyy back (/s) when we cared so much about DJ Johnson being an older rookie and our standard for them being that they're more NFL-ready and able to contribute sooner rather than later.  But now all of a sudden Shough is just a poor little 26-year-old rookie on an awful team.  Seriously...the way you frame everything around Shough is straight out of a fanfic.  Constantly referencing with tears in your eyes how he's succeeding against all odds on such an awful team.  Meanwhile the Saints' D is 14th in PPG and their offense (led by Shough) is 29th in PPG.  Telling me how the Saints managed a win on Shough's shoulders against the Jets last week who put up...*checks notes*...6 points against the Saints' D.  Yes god bless the savior Shough who willed his team to victory against those juggernauts led by Brady Cook.  Never mind how Taysom Hill threw as many touchdowns in 1 passing attempt as Shough did in 49 passing attempts.  Yikes.

      Who's gonna drop the gloves? I can't think of a single player on this team that can fight. Period. Much less get the best of an opposing player. Please.
