How Soon Andy Reid Forgets

What Would Natalie Do?? Start her post Eagles season rant!!

And Saturday was only 4th and 15....

Sometimes there are moments that fade from memory. Sometimes there are plays that disappear immediately after you see them. But sometimes, sometimes there are plays that will stand the test of time. 4th and 26.

Even this wasn't enough to get them to the Super Bowl. So what is it going to take for the Eagles to take control and win a Super Bowl???

Come on Coach Reid, take off the training wheels and get rid of the bumper guards - this is the NFL!!

As coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, my job is to play it safe and perhaps give my team a chance to win. My job is not to adjust the game plan or take chances. Far be it for me to realize that winning a playoff game actually extends the season. Quality percentages mean we go home! Only 1 out of 19 4th and 15+ plays this year resulted in a first down, so I needed to punt and asked my defense to hold them to 3 downs. Then after we punted, I remember that we weren't able to stop the run all night, so although the percentages were not in our favor for a 4th down conversion, the percentages for stopping the Saints run were even lower and we lost the game. I am looking forward to next season though. McNabb will be back and then I can blame the losses on him and his health. I am really getting tired of playing football after Christmas. This year, we had to eat Christmas Dinner at a Tex-Mex place in Dallas and I had heartburn until Wednesday. I didn't want my starters to get used to all of this winning so we sat most of them against the Falcons. But that backfired too - we won that game, the NFC East and now had to play those pesky Giants for a third time. I missed yet another Mummers Parade due to preparing for that game. Enough is enough!!

Coach Reid and his wife are still having their annual Super Bowl blowoutparty. They had to cancel it in 2005 because they had one more game to play in Jacksonville, FL of all places! But last year's party was a blast. All of the coaches stole his lampshades, Donovan puked in his car and the kids spray painted "T.O. T.O. T.O." all over the basement walls. But they lived to talk about it and were anxious to begin next years party. This year Tony Romo (Hey Ladies!) will be there!!

And now - Batman Dawkins!!
