If my beloved Eagles win we are the knew Boston a 4 sport team with 2 Championsips in 1 Season, were going to beat the Card by 14 with our superior D an though I've always loved my boy Rolle an Cromartie is a solid rook, the Running Game by my the amazing Miami RB Eddy James wont be enough an niether will the passing with the pressure the D-Line will bring, Akers Playoff Record streak of FG's will continue an Wetsbrook will find a way to break out an Warner is no way mobile enough or has a O-Line Good enough to slow down Philly. Comparing NY Giants O-Line to Arizonia's is a very long stretch. Were heading to the SuperbOWL VERSUS a team we beat our a squad with a old an hurt Offence with a Rookie QB who Dawkins & Asante will read like a book. Its the Eagles time, the Stars are aligned its going to happen. To much Defensive Line Depth, Secondary Depth an WR Depth. An a QB who has been on fire snce the Cards Game.
Its a nice story for the Cards winning two games agianst run first teams but now its time to steo up agianst the big boys.

There is still a possibility that the Flyers could win it all too! They are tops in the division & are one of the most gimpy teams in the league. I'd love to see what they can do at 100%!

January 13, 2009  11:42 AM ET

I dont see the point in this. The Tampa Bay area turned in the Stanley Cup the same year that the Bucs won the superbowl. OOOHHH WE are the next Boston. Hellllssss NO!! You can take that honor, we dont want it.

January 13, 2009  11:45 AM ET

But don't get to big headed. I take Arizona to beat philly. Better team. More punch at WR. Sorry. And Rays will be back to WS before Philly will be, quote unquote from your boy Pat Burrell himself. And don't look now but the Lightning win tonight and they are 4-1 in past 5 games. Philly sucks and always has. Remember Ronde?........HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Oooo that hurts. I will take him running 80 yards for a TD and sticking that dagger straight through the egglets heart than a world series anyday.

January 13, 2009  12:39 PM ET

Yeah Philly will be the new Boston when they actually win something.

Eagles fans...always talking like they are the best when they have never won anything.

Win the superbowl and get back to us chump, and move out of your mom's basement its not cool

January 13, 2009  01:17 PM ET

Lol. Seriously. You beat us in the world series when nobody thought we shoulda even been there. Get over it and you wont be there again any time soon.

"Its a nice story for the Cards winning two games agianst run first teams but now its time to steo up agianst the big boys."

HA! What you all are the big boys? Can't wait to see McNabb blow another championship for you guys...it's going to happen.

Thats what he's good. But in defense of him, he hasnt really had any WRs since TO which...yeah we know how that ended. Go Cardinals.

mrjermjones, (obviously a Cowboys fan) its good that you can get your frustration out on this site. That's it! Let it go! (Romo bobbled field goal!!!!) That's fine, spew your venom! Cleanse the system. Breathe in! Breathe out! (15 YEARS SINCE A PLAYOFF WIN!!!) That's it.

Repeat this phrase: Every day and in every way, I'm getting better and better.

HAHAHA!

Q: How old were YOU the last time they won in the postseason?

January 13, 2009  10:40 PM ET

As a Steeler fan, I'd like to jump in this thread because it was started by an Iggles fan, but I'm not even thinking super bowl until after the Ravens game and NO I'M NOT PREDICTING A WIN..i think the steelers are slightly....very slightly...better than the Ravens but this game will be so physical that the winner will need the 2 weeks off to rest & heal before the super bowl.

Don't count your eggs before they're hatched or else you could be severely dissapointed...and I'm talking NHL also. The Pens will straighten out their problems before the playoffs.

Pirates? hell no, no chance at all so go phils....LOL

January 13, 2009  10:41 PM ET

However, I am very confident the Steelers will win, but being cautious in any predictions.
We are not playing the Jake Plummer led Broncos of '05.

January 14, 2009  03:27 AM ET

3 NFL Championships last 1 in 57 an the ONLY TEAM TO EVER beat a Vince Lombardi led Packer Team in the Playoff's. Suck That.

January 14, 2009  03:33 AM ET

An we can agree the Cards beat two teams with Weak D's an D-Lines plus they played Run First Offences, not a Passing Attck like Philly aneven if somehow West or Buck don;t get going well keep running just to mess with the D. Watch Avant an Curtis with the solid move the chain cathes an DeSean THE ROOKIE STEAL OF THE DRAFT break for a 80 yard TD. Also he'll put one in off a Punt or Kick Return. 48-20, with a hobbbled Westbrook a just benched McNabb an a 100% Boldin an we still smoked the Cards. Jim Johnson will sack Warner at least 8 times like BIG BEN when we didnt have Westbrook an still won behind Buck an AKERS MAAGIC LEG.AND WE HAVE 2 1ST ROUND PICKS AN A 2 RDER AN 2 3RD ROUNDERS, WATCH a deal for Crabtree or Boldin happen baby unless we sign T.J. who still has 3 solid year left an wont have to worry about the double teams with DeSean,WestBrook,Avant,Celeck.

I didn't even read the article, I will later.

My frist thougths were....but how oculd Philly be the new Boston? Even if the Eagles win? Boston has 3 SB wins in the past 5 years and 2 world series wins in 3 years. Um, yea.

But, i should read the article. Plus, Boston fans got wicked c)cky and obnoxious. Philly fans are just mostly rude. Not the same. haha

January 14, 2009  08:12 AM ET

I was born in philly but i live in boston now. I cant stand it up here with these teams taking the chips with different teams. Now its our turn to represent. LETS GO PHILADEL....


(mrjermjones) stop being so bitter. ...Win a playoff game for that matter

January 14, 2009  11:44 AM ET

to mrjermjones....

January 14, 2009  11:51 AM ET

first of all mrjermjones, the eagles have won 3 nfl championships, just because the world championships weren't called the superbowl yet doesn't mean they weren't league champs... does nfl history start in the '60s? hell no it started decades before that.... do babe ruth and lou gehrigs world series wins count? of course they do... do your homework jr. the eagle won their third championship the year the cowboys started playing, we've been one of the most winning teams in the nfl and all it will take is one superbowl win and people like you will have to find a new team to harass, why are people that don't like the birds on here anyway.....pittsburgh 5 rings? 4 of them were a steroid dynasty (thats why the whole team died at 45, even terry bradshaw admits to using them) and one was a win against (gasp) the seahawks, good for you! Think about it shittsburgh, no one really honors bonds and mcguire, i think your "steal curtain defense" should get the same wrap...

i was in elementary, it was the best time of my life we had the day off from school, we all wore our jerseys to school the day before, times were glorious.

now here's a question for you: How old were you when the Eagles won their last superbowl?

p.s. I already know the answer...
