I've said it all along this season that the Eagles face some of the best pass rushers in the game during the second half of their season. Vick has largely helped hide the fact that the Eagles offensive line is poor. I would say the defense, in allowing Jay freaking Cutler to throw 4 tds and no interceptions, should take the biggest blame in this loss but the offense gets their share too as they were 1-5 in the red zone.
Jay Cutler has been a lot more under control this year, if you haven't seen him much this year, he's not making nearly as many bone headed throws or forcing the issue as much when something isn't there.
Maybe not as much as in the past but he still averages an interception a game and has thrown one in every game except for 4 of them. I didn't mean to take anything away from the Bears with that post either, they deserved to win and were the better team but it is always frustrating when your team loses.
Yeah the line played bad for the Eagles. Good to see Peppers chasing Vick around like old times. That tipped pick that Vick threw came back to haunt them. Also didn't help that Jackson dropped another TD in the end zone. I need Jackson to step it up the the next few weeks. It seems like Maclin has become the number 1 guy in Philly.
No offense taken at all man I know how it goes, think last year just left an image of Cutler being a turnover machine, this year he had one really horrid game vs. the Redskins.
That tipped pass was the game changer. Eagles on the 4 yard line trying to go in and take a 20-14 lead then BAM that happens and 4 plays later leads to a td for the Bears to make it 21-13. Yeah, Jackson had at least 2 crucial drops that I saw and the one in the end zone I believe he gave up on because he saw Major Wright coming. I'm not overlooking any of the games coming up because each of them features great pass rushers going against the Eagles poor offensive line. Also, Vick was looking for the big play way to often early. The Bears safeties were playing 10, 15 and sometimes 20 yards deep. That's when Vick needed to go to the dink and dunk passes instead of the end of the 3rd and into the 4th quarters. The big play is not always going to be there. He also missed Celek on a shovel pass where Celek had a clear shot at the end zone.
Yeah I think the Bears D kind of had him rattled a bit. Even on the tip pass that play looked like it would have been picked off anyway unless he would be able to fit it in like the Celek TD. Also on the tipped pick he threw he had Celek wide open on a TD. Bears D roughed him up yesterday. Even when he sat in the pocket to complete a pass he was hit. I was shocked that he had 344 yds passing at the end of the game because it didn't seem like it.
Bears D gave up a lot of yards, they tend to, but tighten up in the red zone. Vick was very impressive with his passes esp that late TD to Celek.
Same here, probably would have been if Brian turns around but it's was a pin point throw that's for sure.
I've always had this question lurking somewhere in the back of my head. Anybody what's that thing connecting Takeo Spike's head to his body ?
