Story: My story revolves around a playoff game but not the NFC Championship. January 16, 2005, I am out with friends Joe and Karen and Karen’s parents at a place called Champs (now PJ Whelihan’s) getting ready to watch the game. The bar is very quiet (which is not my scene), and Karen turns to me and says, “Jamie, you are being very quiet. Are you ok?” I respond, “It’s quiet in here. I am not sure what to say.” Joe turns to me and says, “What do you mean? Just say whatever!” I respond, “Ok. E A G L E S EAGLES!” as loudly as I can. Next thing I know, the owner of the bar comes over with a round of beers and tells us he was hoping someone would do that! Every time the Eagles scored they would bring the microphone over and I would lead everyone in the fight song, I was interviewed and in the local paper the following day, and of course the Eagles won 27-14 on their way to going to Super Bowl XXXIX. It was a good day that day! I look to have the same thing happen this Sunday!

Current Line: Vikings –3 O/U 44

Prediction: I think this will be a close game. If it comes down to who has the ball last I hope the defense has a huge stop. If we have the ball, I have no doubt Carson will lead his first ever game winning drive. Eagles 28 Vikings 23

Opposing Fan Interviews with The Philly Sports Guy – Week 5 – New York Jets

This week the 0 and 3 New York Jets come to Philadelphia for the first time in 8 years. That may seem to most of their fans like the last time they won a game, but it wasn’t in Philly since they have never beaten the Philadelphia Eagles. This is a fun piece where I go to find out if there really is any true Jets fans left in this world. Thankfully, I did not catch mono during the filming of any of this episode and some of these Jets fans have some “spleen-ing” to do about their undergarments! Go Birds!

Philly Fan Caves with The Philly Sports Guy – Episode 5

Episode 5: Stroll Down Memory Lane

In this episode, we are in Clifton Heights where this basement is full of memorabilia that will bring us back to the early 80’s thru the 90’s. The entire basement is set with Eagles stuff and the entire family gets in on the love. He does have one thing Dallas, but he placed it in an area that is appropriate. Also we get to rub it in to the Cowboys just a bit, just because we can! A fun stop and great Fan Cave. Go Birds!

Jets have lost 3 consecutive years coming off the bye week

Current Line: Eagles -14 Over/Under 43.5

Story: Largest Lead ever held by the Jets (21 points)

Although the Eagles have won all 10 meetings against the Jets, on October 3, 1993, (my 1st game that I was able to watch once out of the Navy) the Jets jumped out to a 21-0 lead by 3 minutes into the 2nd quarter led by Jets QB Boomer Esiason. Although (NFL Offensive Player of the Month in September) Randall Cunningham started the game, he was hurt in the game (fractured leg, lost for the season) and on came back up Bubby Brister. By the beginning of the 4th quarter the Eagles had tied it up at 28. After a 3 and out by the Jets, a good punt had the Eagles pinned on the 1 yard line. The next play from scrimmage, Bubby Brister went back to pass and to avoid the rush threw the ball away from inside the end zone. The call was Intentional Grounding in the End Zone and a Safety awarded to the Jets. The ensuing drive had Boomer bringing the Jets down the field to the Eagle 10. The next pass for Boomer would be picked off by Eric Allen and returned 94 yards for a touchdown. That score would be the game winner keeping the Eagles undefeated at 4-0.
Final Score: Eagles 35 Jets 30

The Philly Sports Guy Prediction: Eagles 31 Jets 9

Philly Fan Caves with The Philly Sports Guy – Episode 4

Episode 4: A Dedicated Fan

In this episode, we meet a season ticket holder from Havertown, PA, who has a very unique story to tell. Not only is his fan cave full of memorabilia of the Eagles winning Super Bowl LII, but also has game tapes of just about every win from 1994 on. Even while making this episode, I got goosebumps and misty-eyed listening to the story! A must see! Also extra bonus footage at the end that can only be seen here!

Eagles Vs Packers - Tale Of The Tape

Eagles vs Packers – Tale of the Tape

1st Game (Oct 29, 1933): Packers 35 Eagles 9
Last Game (Nov 28, 2016): Packers 27 Eagles 13

Most Notable Game (Dec 26, 1960): 1960 NFL Championship Eagles 17 Packers 13

All Time Playoff (3 Meetings): Eagles lead 2-1

Trends: Packers have won last 2 meeting and 5 of last 6
Eagles are 5-17 at Lambeau and have been outscored 531-358
Eagles have won 3 in a row on Thursday Night Football (2 on the road)
Packers are 6-2 on TNF all wins coming against Division opponents
Packers are 5-0 at home on TNF

Story: Lambeau Field and Green Bay is a nice place to visit. The people there are friendly and the area around the stadium is full of things to do. The field is like going to a high school football game and if it’s cold, you better bring a cushion, because the bleachers are cold, and packed to the gills. That all being said, we won the game last time I was there 27-13. It has been a tough week for the Birds, dealing with the public and the media discussing the drops from Sunday, but I expect that will charge this team to prove that they are a Super Bowl contending team. Green Bay is 3rd from last in the NFC in points scored, and have let up close to 400 yards rushing in 3 games. The Eagles way to win, run the ball! Ground and pound and keep Rodgers on the bench.

Prediction: Eagles 23 Packers 14

Story: Last time I was in Atlanta for a game was Monday Night Football (9/12/2005). During warm-ups before the game there was a little scuffle between a backup Special Teams player for Atlanta and Jeremiah Trotter. Both were ejected from the game. Atlanta won the game 14-10. Fans in that stadium are soft and did not cheer very much. There will be a large amount of Eagles fans at this game, including a good friend Ebon Markale Flagg. He will make sure to bring home an Eagles win! Go Birds!
