Yes it was preseason but both teams starters came out and treated this as a regular season game. Andy Reid wanted to see how his team fared against an elite team and Ryan Clark said they were coming out to prove a point after their game against the Redskins. So, yes Vick had a terrible game and was forcing throws and throwing INTs. If Ryan throws 3 INTs tonight, I will be pissed.

Ask Delhomme, this kind of stuff has potential to carry over.

Meh.. I dislike the eagirls as much as most of you, but I just don't see declaring them a 'bust' off of preseason games. Week 2 is all that matters to me.

Yes its preseason and meaningless but seeing dip$hit throw 3 picks in the first half last night had me giggling like a school girl. :lol:

I don't think it means much in the great scheme of things....Eagirls are still going to be formidable in the NFC.

I will say this though: My favorite thing that has happened in the past few weeks in the NFL is the Vince Young self-declaration of the Eagles as the Dream Team. Huge target put on them and I couldn't be happier about that.

Screw the Eagles.

Screw the Pack.

Screw the Taints.

If you aren't the Falcons you're dead to me.

you have to give credit where its due though..Vick played a great escape artists when he got passed the first sack, then split 2 defensive lineman and stepped up and threw the ball. Yes the end result wasnt what he wanted but man, you got to be amazed by that escape ability.

I've seen a lot of QBs do that, including Eli. I was more impressed with the tackle(?) (looked more like a block) on Troy. Although I will bet Andy tears him a new one for putting his own body at risk doing that, it looked righteous.

As for the rest, it's preseason and I put no stock in preseason. It will be interesting to see how they come out in the regular season, although I think they have a pretty soft schedule overall.

I was impressed with the block, but at the sametime, I even more impressed with the whippin that the Steelers put on them. Even Leftwich got in on the act. :D

YKW stands for "You know who". It's an old board thing. When Vick was going through the legal issues, there were tons of threads on the main TATF page - so many that they made a Vick forum for those threads.

However, there weren't that many people who hung out on the Vick forum, so people kept trying to sneak the threads back onto the TATF pages. They kept getting moved, so they started using YKW to keep them from being detected as a "Vick Thread" and being moved.

It sort of caught on and even after all that died down, many on these boards still call him YKW.

I think the games last night two things really stood out and it comes to down to familiarity. The teams that have established vets that have played together may have an advantage in the early part of the season AND those teams that got together and practiced early and often are going to have an advantage.
