    Are people overrating the Eagles going into tonight's game?

    Eagles laying 7 on the road with a rookie coach and rookie QB in a winner take all for a spot in the playoffs?

    Orton is no slouch.

    I think this game will be close and Dallas has a decent shot to win.

    If Orton was no slouch, he's be starting in the NFL instead of holding Romo's clipboard.

    already have some on eagles ml, but going to wait to play this live-in game to see how the flow of the game goes.. i just don't see eagles not getting their points... it'll be up to eagles D against orton (too much of a variable at this point before getting to see him play)

    He has been a starter in the league.

    You can bet your ass he is better than Chase Daniel who should have beaten the Chargers with a bunch of backups.

    So I take it you're on the Eagles then?

    Yeah, it's his second year and first year really having the job. You are right though.

    My point is, Orton can play. Just because you're a backup QB in the NFL doesn't mean you can't play.

    We'll see.

    Steve McNair was a starter in the league. Go dig him up. I'm talking tonight's game, not hypothetical football fantasy.

    What does Steve McNair have to do with anything?

    So are you on Philly?

    This whole division sucks.

    No one pisses down their leg like the Dallas Cowboys.
