The protection for the majority of the game has been incredible for McNabb.

Nonetheless, they both made up for it on that later hookup for the first.

The Eagles are about to lose and it's all because McNabb can't hit wide open receivers.

Eagles are doing everything they can to munk it up. McNabb is throwing nice passes...at least, some of them are.

Ugh, potential game killer on that 3rd and 10 miss by McNabb.

I smell a AZ bring the house blitz and horrible throw for McNabb coming up.

Well, here's the first "Its the game here" moment, coming up after the 2 minute warning.

Big play time.

No dog in this one, but as others have said, it has been a lot of fun to watch.

I am leaning Cards (with respect to any rooting interest) because I like the story, especially with Warner there, but I don't have anything against the Eagles. Whoever win, wins (and I will probably root for the winner of this game in the Super Bowl).

Back to my previous point.. Had the Eagles not called a timeout with three minutes to go, they'd LIKELY be in the exact same situation they're in now, obviously with maybe 20 seconds less... which would be with two timeouts if they don't get this. *shrug*

That was catchable.. a good throw considering the pressure. Darn.

Probably ruled incidental. He should have caught it anyway.

That could have been a PI call, but the 1st one was much more clear, IMO.

I'd love to see that play from the other side of the field. I'm not sure if Curtis went down on his own or if he had help.

Borderline pass interference and Arizona was lined up offsides too. Then Warner trips on the handoff. Team of destiny apparently.

They'll argue incidental contact, but sonofabitch...that's *two* non-PI calls this game that helped put the Cardinals in the Super Bowl.

I am not saying, by any means, that the Cardinals haven't made the plays to get there, or that the Eagles would've scored on this drive, and won in OT. But dammit...those two plays definitely didn't help the Eagles (among other things, yes).

I hate this. All these POS (not towards anyone on this board of course) Cards "fans" who jumped on the bandwagon this year are going to the SuperBowl. Where were you when you sold about 30K tickets each year at Sun Devil Stadium?

Dammit. DEFINITE pass interference.

Two f'n calls. Both were huge.

I'm angry now. Arizona earned it, but they had help on two VERY crucial plays.

Destiny indeed.

The receiver was intentionally trying to do something to Curtis before the ball arrived, that's PI...

It's back to normal for Philly fans. The Phillies were a definite anomaly, and that team's going down the shitter. Sixers suck, who cares about the Flyers...dammit.

Not a dola -

If Cards are smart, they don't punt it anywhere near DeSean Jackson.
