    Eagles used the notorious "prevent defence" to let the Panthers back in the game.

    They say the prevent defence prevents shutouts but for the Eagles today it may prevent what should have been a easy win.
    Pitching a shutout until they went to "let em catch it and come up and tackle em, screw the pressure we've used to control the Panthers all game long" .
    If the Eagles blow this it's on the "D" coordinator or the head couch if he gave the order.

    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    No. It was my birthday. Last time they played Purdue on my birthday they had to win on the last play. They laid down. It wasn't that they lost, they laid down. They are dead to me. (til next week)

    I was rooting for Oh St, Bama would like to exact a bit of revenge. Four five more games, alot can still happen. A little luck win the conference and back in.

    The same thing happened yesterday with Jim Schwartz's decision to have the defensive backs play very loose off the receivers allowing Dallas to pick up a crucial 3rd and 15 that eventually resulted in a TD right before the half. In a previous game the Titans picked up a 4th and 17 against the Birds prevent that resulted in an Eagles OT loss. Inexcusable!
