Last call for Eagle game predictions

19-16  Pack in OT

 

Crosby is the hero. D finally gets a few TOs

I remember watching a baseball game in the mid 70's between the Reds and Dodgers. Tommy Lasorda was 3rd base coach at the time. Between innings Tommy told Pete Rose that the Dodgers had a vote on who the best looking Red's player was and that he came in second..... but everyone else tied for first. 

 

My predictions for the time AR is out are going to follow Tommy's thinking. This is a good team with talent that's going to look pretty ugly at times. I have no idea what the scores are going to look like but they will go .500 or better while AR is out and win some games by any means necessary. Starting with Philly this weekend. 

Nelson throws a TD to Boykin

 

Report is AR will be out 4 games. Win #1 comes this week vs PHI. Gotta hold serve this weekend.

35-16 Eagles

I think this is the classic "circle the wagons" game with the defense playing its best game of the year - key will be LB's containing McCoy.  Offense does just enough to win.  20-14 Packers.

 

It will also be my first trip to Lambeau!

24-3 Eagles.  I am always rong.

If Tolzien is the QB, 24-21 Packers and poor Iowacheese goes off the deep end because a Wisconsin QB won the game for the Packers.

If Seneca Wallace is the QB, 93-0 Eagles.

Eagles 27

Packers 9 guys to IR

Eagles rank 32nd in total defense. With a little prep, Wallace could look like RGIII did in their first meeting against the Eagles this year. Lacy and Starks should combine for 175 plus and a couple touchdowns. Foles, if he starts, could be a re-run of McCown, but the Packer's D will be looking to get some respect back. 

Packers 24 , Eagles 17

Packers win 28 to 13.    Wallace has good game.  

I like it, I like it!

I don't think the Packers can win with Wallace. Eagles 31 Packers 9

Pack - 20

Eagles - 17

Wallace will outfoles Foles.  Packers win big!!

Green Bay 26 V Philly 21

I think Seneca can play better than he did last week.  He'll at least be prepared more than last week.  I don't don't know how much better.  And until I see it, I'm not completely convinced.  Philly stacks the box and GB struggles in the run game.

 

31-13 Eagles

Eagles - 567

Pack - 0

Packers D was thoroughly embarrased last week, I think they come out with a vengence and play a superior game this week to attone for last week.

 

Eagles give up a ton of yards, last in league, and their secondary is very suspect, especially if their best CB cant play due to the pec or whatever it is. Wallace should play better with a game plan matching his strengths and I think the Pack will be able to move the ball well against them.

 

A bit worried that all 4 of the Eagles wins have come on the road, seems they play better away from home, or maybe just the level of competition. But they are used to winning on the road this year.

 

I'm fully prepared to see the Pack lose, however, somehow I think they manage a win. As, I just cant see Foles having the same type of game he had last week against the Raiduh's. Wont venture a score, but in the end Packers pull out a win at home.

 

 

 

 

I predict a fake field goal and we win by 1...Crosby is the hero.

I am just going to try not to get all emotional during this game.  I am thinking the Packers' O will not keep up with the Eagles' O.  So my expectation is not going to be set too high on this game - first time this year for me.  We just have too many key starters out. However, I will be impressed if the Packers take this game.  

I think what you say is good advice. I know I'll get aggravated watching Wallace play and start cursing at the tv. I am just spoiled after all these years of stellar QB play.

I was surprised to see the majority of the EPSN insiders picking Green Bay to Win this week. 

 

I think we win 2 of the next 3 and wouldn't at all be surprised to go 3 for 3

McCarthy outcoached. 

 

Packers 27

Eagles 24

I'll go one better. I think we win the next four. I think the Lions find a way to lose to us on Turkey Day and also lose to the Bears this weekend. Rodgers comes back for the Falcons, regains his mojo and puts the team on his back.

The Eagles are a pretty bizarre team.  They are 4-1 on the road and 0-4 at home.  They score a lot of points, but they might have the worst defense in the league and their pass D in particular is awful.  

 

I have to think the possibility of getting CMIII back this week and Hayward with another week under his belt can only help the Packers D.   Sure, Philly has some weapons like Jackson and McCoy but the Packers have probably been hearing all week about how their season is over so I expect them to come out and play a lot better this week, including Seneca Wallace. 

 

If Rodgers was healthy this week I think the Packers would win by 3 TDs but certainly Wallace is no Rodgers so I will say GB 27- Philly 17

A good piece by Silverstein today asking some legitimate questions about the Packer defense. After their debacle against Chicago I have my own doubts but I'll choose to just see it as an anomaly.

 

Pack 27

Eagles 24

Feel free to swear at me instead.  Everybody else here does.

Cheesesteaks and raw eggs.

 

Ah, but they were both the QB.  And Wallace started.
