1. Uh...yeah...this Sunday is January 28th...so next Sunday is February 4th. So actually, they are playing next Sunday. Just sayin'
2. Who ever said anything about Brady not knowing how to play?? I certainly don't recall saying that. If you watch the Patriots and have watched Brady, one thing that's noticeable about him is that he's not mobile...at all. He may well be the G.O.A.T, that's hard to argue, but he's not mobile. And contrary to what people seem to think, he has lost games. It has happened. One thing that gets him off his best-of-all-time game is pressure in his face...early and often, straight up the middle. The Eagles have one of the best, if not the best, defensive lines in the NFL. There's no denying how great he has been for a very long time, but he's not Superman.
3. Yes, because we all know that fans in Boston would just politely golf clap when they win titles. Philly fans have passion for their teams, not many other cities can say that.
4. Yeah, and ?? He probably is. Doesn't mean they shouldn't play the game.
5. Careful what you wish for. The Eagles are a far better team than the Vikings.
In the end, the Patriots may well win this game. Remember, the Eagles are riding in with a journey-man back up QB. Take Brady out of the game and put Brian Hoyer in and you'll get the idea. That's going to make it one incredibly hard challenge for the Eagles. But I don't think they are dead meat by any stretch.
