Default Re: *** OFFICIAL 11/04/07 NFL SNF GAME THREAD (DAL @ PHI) ***

3-3.5 pts is about right for this game.

Eagles held 6-1 GB Off to 6 pts on drives, and another 3 on the fumble in final minute on punt muff. No TDs.
Held 5-2 NYG to 1 TD.
No TDs for Jets Off.
1 TD for Minny Off.
No TDs for Chi Off for 59.5 minutes.
Ran up 35-7 lead on 5-2 Det, shut out 2nd half.
2 TDs v Wash.

Against teams with a 16-5 combined record, the D surrendered 4 TDs in 180mins, 2 after the game was outta reach. Given up 8 TDs in 7 games total.

Obviously the PHL O has struggled, but with Westy, Smith and Thomas back, and McNabb looking better each week, they are going to play a lot better at home. This is essentially the same PHL team that beat Dallas 2x last year, once without McNabb on the road, except this year they have a run D.

So, yeah, I'll take PHL +29 all day...
