Last week it was

Steelers Off #1 in 3rd down conversions
Eagles Def #3 stopping 3rd down conversions

See what happened on that last drive.

I heard a rediculous stat I think on NFLN saying the eagles have 52 TO's in their last 21 games. God where this team could go if this stat was reversed. We have to hope Vick can pull a Eli from 07'. People forget he had close to 20 TO's as well the first half of the season only to cut that number to a select few the last 1/2 of the season. If we eliminate TO's this offense starts to put up lower 30's upper 20's every week. I'll take my chances in that scenario.

I think prior to the Steelers game we were getting off the field 26 % on third down, and Steelers was converting 2/3 atleast in the 60%

we held them to 42.6% or something like that on third down, That's not bad at all.

I usually have nothing to say nice about Vick, but now and again he does something middle of the pack.

Early line out of Vegas has us favored by 5.

Vick will never stop fumbling. He's always been a fumbler, relative to his position. It's now even more evident because he is slower and easier to get a good hit on.

People trying to convince themselves that Vick throwing no INT's in the last two games is good.

DeSean hasn't thrown one since 2008, Start JAckson

Speaking of ball handling, McCoy scares me every time he has the ball. I feel like if people go after the ball he will start fumbling left and right. He does not secure that ball very well.

And he doesn't switch hands when running the sideline. Elementary technique is to hold the ball on the outside arm so if it comes loose it goes out of bounds.
