Really hoping the Cardinals win this one. Count me among the people who just really don't like the Eagles.

Westbrook is really the only superstar they have. McNabb is erratic most of the time. Superstar to being benched....sometimes he can do that in the same game. Granted he has no top flight receivers.

I like Kurt Warner and I like his receivers. The defense is stepping up and might be able to handle Westbrook and force McNabb to beat them.

I try not to be optimistic (I'm an Eagles/Phillies/Flyers fan), but I think the Eagles roll today. Overall, the Eagles are a much more complete team than anything the Cards have faced so far in the playoffs.

If you've been watching the Eagles the past 3 months, it has nothing to do with McNabb or Westbrook, it's all about the D. The last receiver who caught a TD pass on the Eagles was Fitzgerald and that was Thanksgiving day in a loss.

Having grown up a stones throw from the Carrier Dome, I have a soft spot in my heart for McNabb. I'd like to see him get a ring. He gets an unfairly harsh rap at times. He's no Brady, but people talk about him like he's Ryan Leaf.

All I know is that Larry Fitzgerald is an absolute player. The Cardinals are looking solid on offense, but they better figure out how to slow down the Eagles offense too. :tu

Side note: Arizona's kicking game is trash right now. :bh

Well....****!

That game epitomized the Eagle's season. Start out shaky. Get in a major funk midway through. Bounce back and show signs of being a very good team. Come up a bit short in the end. Man, it's frustrating.

My MVP vote was for Kurt Warner, I believe he accomplished more with less than Manning or Collins and he proved that he was the better of the three today. Nothing to root for in Detroit so...Go Cards!!!

I really wanted McNabb to hoist a Lombardi Trophy sometime in his career. Looks as thought it will have to be somewhere else. I'm a Cards fan for the Superbowl now.

That was a tough one.

The Cards in the big one. Sounds odd to even think, let alone be true. A strange season indeed.

Yea, I would never have foreseen Kurt making this kind of run 7 years ago.

Now if the Cubs ever win a world series....LOL!

Actually my coworker is a big Cubs fan so that makes me a antiCub fan. I haven't really followed baseball since the strike but I do catch a couple of games here and there.
