| I got the Falcons defense for my fantasy team so it better not be 41-17 or I'm in trouble. |

| 41-17?!?!?! You really think that the Eagles offense and Defense will preform a game that of the undefeated season of Marino's Phins'? The Falcons defense is one of the best in the league, at least in the top 5. And you think that without Cory Simon, they can shut down Mike Vick and a pretty good Falcons Offense. It may be an Eagles win, but the win will be tops 7 points. |

I agree. The game will be very close. I would say it's a coinflip. I have no idea who will win. Should be a good game.
Goodtime-what does this mean? Not knocking you I just don't understand what you mean by this sentence.

Wait wait wait wait....Vick may be the most fun player to watch in the NFL, he is NOT a good quarterback. He will NEVER be able to lead what is commonly called a "good" offense against any solid defense. The Eagles have a solid defense, therefore Vick is gonna have a lotta trouble tonite. The Eagles may not score 41, but the Falcons are gonna have problems getting into the 20s.
Eagles by 13 |

Eeew. I don't care how they do it, but i hope the falcons kill 'em. I hate the eagles....
That said, the Falcons have a great defense, so the eagles should have some trouble getting through. I hope... |

Sorry Jaconda, I was trying to prove a point and didn't say it all that well. What I ment by this, is by saying that the Eagles will beat the Falcons by 24 points is measuring the Eagles up to the Undefeated Dolphins with Dan Marino. The Eagles aren't quite that good, and the Falcons D is way too good to let 41 points up or whatever you said. So to sum it up, I highly highly doubt the Eagles get 41 points, and if they do, the Falcons will score at least 40. Mike Vick is not one of the best accurate QB's in the NFL, but c'mon he's not THAT bad. He kills teams D's with his legs and he also has an arm to go with it. Watch Algee Crumpler put up 90+ Recieving yards. And no offense taken by what you said Jaconda, I understand. I didn't make sense |

| The Dolphin's only undefeated season was in 1972. Bob Griese was their quaterback though he was out for much of the year injured. Dan Marino did not join the team till the 80's. |

| I think it will be defensive too. I just hope Westbrook scores some touchdowns. He's on my fantasy team. |

| Man the eagles needed Trotter to contain Vick. Against a very average defense sans Trotter, Vick had TONS of time to throw, and didnt look to bad. |

| WHAT a game! Thanks for those corrections Rob by the way, I'm a bit rusty on the Dolphin's history seeming I'm not a fan lol. That was a great game and the combined scores (14-10) weren't even close to what that guy thought the Eagles would put up. The Falcons D shut down D.Mcnabb and injured him with a huge hit. That was indeed a great Monday Night Football game. That was a great run by Vick to pick up the first down early in the 1st Quarter where he broke 2-3 tackles to cross the yellow line. |

| I think that one player for each team will get ejected prior to the start of the game. Then I think that the Falcons will win 14-10. |
