cthomer5000 · 09-12-2005, 08:46 PM

goddamn... Hokie-mania out there tonight.

VPI97 · 09-12-2005, 08:46 PM

...and there's the fifth Hokie.

Dutch · 09-12-2005, 08:47 PM

I know Mike Vick - who are the others?

gottimd · 09-12-2005, 08:48 PM

They might be counting Ron Mexico in the five.

Are they going to Hire Frank Beamer as a special teams coach when he retires?

kingfc22 · 09-12-2005, 08:48 PM

Nice catch TO.

zums · 09-12-2005, 08:49 PM

ok so i just started watchin on the last eagles drive, but my thoughts:

#1 - the trotter thing prolly took a lot outa the eagles... he's a leader

#2 - i miss corey simon

#3 - mcnabb has the super bowl choke face goin on right now.... just really bad body language

HomerJSimpson · 09-12-2005, 08:50 PM

THAT"S THE CRAP RIGHT THERE!!!!

kingfc22 · 09-12-2005, 08:50 PM

Nice pass by Vick. That was right on the money.

Mike Vick can't throw the ball!

Short. He can throw the ball a billion miles deep. Having time to do with with the Falcons o-line is another matter.

Well he can always run it short distances.

Dutch · 09-12-2005, 08:54 PM

I did like seeing the instant replay of Trotter realizing he just got punked! haha!

Logan · 09-12-2005, 08:55 PM

Hey Ct...now that everyone does some sort of ridiculous MNF introduction...what are the odds we can get a "LJ Smith...Rutgers: The State University of New Jersey" in the near future?

Dutch · 09-12-2005, 08:55 PM

I think Terrell Owens deserves more money. He's doing great.

The Falcons O-Line is pretty damned good. Many of Vick's sacks are generated by Vick. His biggest talent can also be a weakness when he starts running around trying to make something happen and gets sacked.

The Falcons O-Line also is a big help to Dunn and Duckett. You don't run the ball that well without a decent O-Line, even with Vick.

As for Vick, that last pass was about as good as you can throw it. Vick doesn't have to be a 65% passer to be successful. He just has to convert enough third downs (with his legs or his arm) to set the defense up for the big play. He's always capable of making it. Tonight he's made a couple, both set up TD's.

That's 100% correct...when Vick moves around, his lineman can't automatically adjust to where he's going. We gave up a lot of sacks at VT when he was here too, but had a very good collegiate line.

VPI97 · 09-12-2005, 09:06 PM

dola -

If the Eagles keep getting that Westbrook-Brooking matchup, it's going to be tough to keep up with them.

The Falcons O-line did a horrible job pass blocking, and anyone who watched more than 3 games the Falcons played last year can tell you that. Some of Vick's sacks are him being cute, but many sacks come from the D-line being on top of him before he even gets his three step drop. They can zone block for rushing, but what helps more is so many d-lines spread out to contain Vick. Watch the St.Louis playoff game last year and you'll see what I mean.

Maybe the line will do a better job this year. On that throw to Jenkins he had more time than I remener him ever seeing last year. This will be their second year with Gibbs, so it may click with them.

cthomer5000 · 09-12-2005, 09:09 PM

a late hit? that's fucking bullshit.

zums · 09-12-2005, 09:10 PM

that was weak weak weak..... must protect golden boy!!!!

VPI97 · 09-12-2005, 09:11 PM

Ticky tack penalty....but the Eagles know he's protected, so why chance it?

...because he might not actually go out of bounds?

cthomer5000 · 09-12-2005, 09:14 PM

Nice work golden Boy! Go Eagles!

HomerJSimpson · 09-12-2005, 09:14 PM

Not a fumble.

zums · 09-12-2005, 09:15 PM

first glance i thought that was a pass... but the more i look at it it looks like he knocked it out *right* before he started to come forward

You're running full speed at a guy running full speed tip-toeing the sideline. What do you think you should do? Leave him untouched and hope he's headed out of bounds, or barely freaking touch the guy to make sure he actually does go out of bounds?

stevew · 09-12-2005, 09:18 PM

Oh, yes, a fumble indeed.

Your scenario doesn't reflect what happened...he wasn't tip-toeing the sideline, he was headed out of bounds at a 45 degree angle. Contact didn't occur until he was out. The guy shouldn't have touched him or he chanced a penalty.

That shot from the back clearly showed his hand went forward (and the defender would have never touched the ball of it hadn't). Doesn't matter now, though.
