(AP Photo/Tony Avelar) It was supposed to be automatic. The Eagles were just supposed to show up against the Raiders and it was going to be a laugher. The Eagle offense, while it had been inconsistent throughout the year, was going to have a field day, pouring on the points against an anemic Oakland defense. Even if they couldn't score, at least the defense would crush JaMarcus Russell and the Raider offense. Well, that's why you play the games. Putting forth their most embarrassing e...

    Congrats to the Raiders because they played their game and the Eagles sucked at their game. This should have been the time that everyone on the team from Andy Reid down to the freaking water boy should have been benched. We sucked big time today. Offense, defense and special teams. This lost is worse than the Redskins losing to the Lions. The team that showed up to play today was a joke. Yes, I am pissed this should have been a win for us.

    I am severely disappointed...
    there's no reason as to why The Eagles should have lost this game.
    Not one offensive touchdown, a result of zero execution on offense, dropped passes and no protection on McNabb... This is gonna be a looooooong week.

    And I was pissed my guys scored 27 points and lost, but the Saints played great, they deserved it. I can only imagine how eagles fans are feeling right now. I have to admit after losing today an eagles loss to, I can't believe I am saying this... the Raiders, was a real pick me up.

    At least the Cowboys scored a couple of touchdowns on the Chiefs. All of that lip this last week over the hard time in K.C. Oh yeah!!!!

      Yeah there is no doubt they looked like crap. The NFC East is really looking bad right now.

    I am not going to blame this loss on the refs, but that does not mean I can't complain about them. That call against Samuel was crap, the non roughing the kicker call was horrible, there was a play where the Raiders defensive player lunged at the legs of Mcnabb yet they did not make the call. Does that call only go for Tom Brady? How many times was Russell going to be allowed to intentionally ground the ball anyways?

      with jamarcus intentional grounding looks just like a pass attempt.
  • This entire game was laughable.. but it is more consitent than most people are saying it was.. When they need to be there they always fall on their faces..Donovan did not look like he should have been playing. he was to protective of the ribs. he took sacks instead of taking chances. he was afraid of being hit. when will they ever learn if he has been hurt leave him out! he will always take the team to the toliet.

      I am not sure if Mcnabb had three seconds to throw the football.

    I couldn't help but think of YB and all the Eagles fans on here as this game unfolded. I feel your pain this week.
    • EazyEagleZ
      I don't feel to bad though. The Phillies whooped Dodger @ss and the Eagles are tied for second place in the division and only a game behind the Giants with games to play against all divisional treams. It is not that bad.
