Thats not going to be his choice.... If Matt Leinart doesnt suck fat dick, or if he is wise enough to leave AZ, he will be one of the greats. Maybe he will be so good that he will make shitty Leinart look average.

This shitty superbowl needs to hurry up and end in a Cardinals slaughtering, so we can start the off season. Get rid of Tra, draft a couple OL with our two first round picks, unless a safety slips. Housh is a free agent, Johnson will probably be cut, Boldin will not be with AZ next year. There should be some WRs for the pickings. We just need a large target in the red zone. Even spending a 1st or 2nd round pick on a RB to help spell Bwest wouldnt hurt.

The Fitzgerald blown covers really bothers me, still it bothers me. He shredded Carolina, absolutely tore them up. I figured we'd be prepared and take away their best player. NOPE.

Seriously bro....dude makes Owens look like a bitch. If he can stay healthy he's going to be one of the greats

I can see Miami being in the NFC championship game within 3 years, its what the Tuna does.

I'm posting that I'm a Miami fan so that in 15 years (hoping this site is still here) I can come back and say I followed them all along.

I was surprised we didn't see more double coverage on Fitzgerald from Philadelphia.

I know! Maybe we couldn't see the double coverage with the camera angles shown on TV but I don't understand. It seemed like most of it was single coverage which really frustrates me....

im not a falcons fan. i dont have a favorite team. i was just pointing out that if you give matt ryan the same amount of time mcnabb has, he could be just as good if not better.

Now I understand why the Eagles tried to pick up Fitzgerald. He destroyed us by himself in the first half. Going into the game the Eagles knew he was a beast yet he still gets 3 TD's, talk about being under prepared.

McNabb was drafted by the team with the worst record in 1998. So coming into the league in 1999 he didnt have anything to work with. Ryan had a top RB free agent, Pro Bowl WR, and an ok line. McNabb had what, Duce Staley in his 3rd year, Na Brown? Mark Seay? Come on, the 1999 Eagles were pathetic. The 2007 Falcons were pathetic because one single player was taken off of their team, and nothing more. Replace that single player with a top draft pick, and naturally you will rebound. Totally different situations.

Kinda funny when Falcons fans consider making the playoffs a success, and Eagles fans consider losing in the NFC championship a failure.

[E30nate]

dont get me wrong, mcnabb is an outstanding qb, but what did he do his rookie year?

[jflip2002]

So McNabb having over 300 yards passing and what, 3 TDs, isnt performing in the playoffs? Once Ryan gets to ONE NFC championship game, let me know. I'll take McNabb any day of the week over Ryan. Lets not get too cocky. Your shitty ass franchise overperformed one year.

Interesting... so did the Falcons game.
Remember this?

He wont need to know, because he wont be anything past college, where there are no ties. I wonder if Matt Ryan knows how to perform in the playoffs.... wait, we saw that he doesnt.

Gotta be careful what you say in advance.

[jflip2002]

OH WOW. Falcons didn't even lose that badly.... Who's laughing now???
ME.
Jflip... you had this coming.

That badly? It came down to the last posession.

[OOMPH!]

Chill out man. You're being a douchy sore loser.

Man you guys are sore losers.

I mostly meant OOPMH or whatever.

:Yawn:

LIFE, someone needs one.

I don't like the Eagles as a team, but I certainly do think that dawkins and westbrook both deserve a ring.

westbrook yes. dawkins no. the way brian dawkins always seems to spear people on the other team when they are already on the ground really bothers me. after watching the eagles about 4 or 5 weeks straight it became clear to me that he is kind of a dirty player.

nice find! i heard during the game or in the post game show that Warner actually has one of the highest QB ratings in history against the blitz.

It's funny.... They are the champions of their division though right? Soooo I guess it's ok to play that song since it applies.

Yes the cardinals won their division and their conference. i thought the song was funny too, though.

What do the Eagles and i have in common? We will both be watching the Superbowl from our homes.

lololol

[delatlanta1281]

Boldin will be an Eagle next year. Arizona doesnt have much cap room at all, not nearly enough for Warner and Boldin, along with their draft picks. The cardinals won their superbowl already by just getting there. You dont play "we are the champions" when you GO to the superbowl. That made me LOL.
