Anyone else watching (and enjoying) Philly getting beaten? 17-3 with 15 sec remaining in the half. Bush is playing great, Philly committing lots of turnovers, and Brees is playing badass. Maybe the Saints are for real.
No, the Eagles are the better team. The problem is the Saints are going to be tough to beat all year in the Superdome. I am amazed at all the Eagles hatred on this board. The team is not a rival of the Jets. I can understand guys like Dino and boomer not liking the Eagles because they live in Eagles country. As for people not in Eagles country, I don't get it.
I like both of these teams, so I'm just hoping to get my picks right. Took Eagles straight up and Saints against the spread.
Saints were significantly better than the Eagles in the first half, vice versa thereafter. Don't know how you can say the Eagles are the better team? Saints were all over them for two quarters. Choked since, sadly.
Yeah, I like the Saints as well. Although the Eagles are a better team, the Saints look like they have something special going on. It's a great story.
