Philadelphia Eagles defeated Detroit Lions 35-32.
My prediction that Eagles new starting quarterback Michael Vick would play a great game was correct. I thought my bet was all good just after 1/2 time as the Eagles were well infront, but it was not to be as the Lions fought back to nearly win at home.
News just in is that Vick will stay the Eagles starting quarterback. And so he should.
From Fri Sept 17. My NFL week 2 bets and report!
Wow! NFL week 1 was, as predicted a tough week, with many of the so-called experts struggling! This week is again looking tough, with many games possibly going either way; the NFL draft system is definitely working!
As mentioned last week I am new to sports betting. For the 2nd week in a row, I’m placing $3 bets against the spread. In the coming weeks, I’ll then look at betting on “under or over totals”, which is one of the many other types of bets that you can lay.
1) Minnesota Vikings –5.5 at Sportsbook.com
2) Philadelphia Eagles –6 at Sportsinteraction.com
3) New Orleans Saints –6 at Bodog.com
Philadelphia Eagles –6 at Sportsinteraction.com
Eagles play the Detroit Lions in Detroit. The Lions were so unlucky not to win last week against the Bears, with the final play of the day, a Lions touchdown by Calvin Johnson not being allowed. Unfortunately Lions second year quarterback the impressive Matthew Stafford, is out for several weeks with an injured shoulder.
I’ve always been a big Michael Vick fan as a player; he is starting this week at quarterback for the Eagles. Kevin Kolb the Eagles new 2010 starter is also out this week, as a result of a week 1 concussion. I believe this will actually benefit the Eagles as Vick will be extra keen to prove that he is still an excellent quarterback, his first start since being released from jail.
I was about to place the $3 bet on the Eagles at Bodog.com but though I better not with Michael Vick’s “dog” history.

Talking NFL on The Jim
Rome show on Easter Friday. Listen now!
Wow! This was big. I was lucky to get through and on his show yesterday and
I talked about the time I tried to hunt down and interview Brett
Favre. Refer below March 4 report on NFL webWORLD
Click
here.
I also talked about the Denver Broncos along with
saying NFL is the equal best game in the World along with Aussie Rules Football.
I talked about how Darren Bennett changed the NFL the way NFL punters now punt
using the Aussie Rules Footy drop punt when they need to land the ball inside
the 20 yard line. I also talked about Aussies Mat McBriar, Ben Graham and Sav
Rocca currently punting in the NFL along with how the Pittsburg Steelers punter
Daniel Sepulveda who is from the USA learnt and
effectively uses the Aussie drop punt.
I
believe Jim Rome has about 5 million listeners daily. He is the biggest sports
radio guy in USA with his show going to many USA markets. Many places in Canada
also carry his daily 3 hour sports radio show. I met Jim Rome at the Super Bowl
Media centres in 03 and 04 and thus I believe this is a reason why I got through
and thus got on his very popular sports radio show yesterday. Next time I need
to slow down a bit and realize that the large USA audience is not used to my
Aussie accent. I tend to get very excitable and passionate when I talk sports on
USA and CDN radio especially when I talk about Aussie Rules Footy.
I just
subscribed to his online pod cast to re listen and I was on for 3 minutes
without him interrupting at all. He bagged me a bit after the 3 minutes
saying "I didn't understand Myk, I heard about Brett Favre and Darren
Bennett." but then he said "No Myk I did understand you. That was Myk for
3, 5, 8 minutes however long that was and yes we do see Myk down at Super
Bowl's in the Media Centre. That was Myk Aussie in Calgary". If you are a

06 "Moose's extensive Eagles 06 preview! Lots of NFL MYKwebTV!" Myk
From Moose "Philadelphia
Eagles, 74th season. Two Super Bowl losses (Jan. '81/Feb. '05). Coach:
Andy Reid. 2005 Record: 6-10-0. QBs: Donovan McNabb, Jeff Garcia, Timmy
Chang (U.Hawai'i - NCAA alltime leading passer). Other players to
watch: H Koy (or is it 'Koi'?) Detmer, Former Richmond U. LB Shawn
Barber, WR/KR/Skier Jerry Bloom, DT Brodnick Bunkley, 1st rounder Fla.
St., DE Darren Howard, OT Winston Justice, TE Matt Schobel, Bengals
F/A. Other Key Players: Max Jean-Gillies, from QC, Canada, OG Georgia,
Jabar Gaffney, DT Ed Jasper, Oafland.
Outlook: For Coach Andy Reid, it was truly the season from heck (I'm
being kind here). Everything that could go wrong did. Starting
with His Knuckleheadness himself, Mr I-hate-Donovan-today/I-love-Donovan
today, psycho WR Terrell Owens the perpetually perplexed man. Gone to
Dallas in the offfseason he says he's a new man. We'll see but he's
Tuna Parcells problem now. Owens finally napalmed every bridge possible
in Eagles camp and Reid finally got rid of him in Oct. By Nov., the
once (again) Super Bowl runner-up Eagles were barely staggering around
with Detmer and recently gone Mike McMahon the moble one from Rutgers
who signed this past spring with Minnesota taking turns
embarrassing themselves as (alleged) pivots while Donovan rested from
sports Hernia surgery. Donovan is back now, and at 240 lbs.! Momma
Wilma better cutback on the Campbell's soup!
In as reserve pivots now are Red (again) Garcia and Chang [recent
preseason game: 1-1-2yds.-0-0 Passing/2 for 4 rushing]. Chang also
played well (but behind) Drew Henson on a good NFL E team (Rhein, see
below) in NFL E this past spring. No moreKoi Detmer behind centre,
thank god! They. or he (D.M.) will hand off to three undersized RBs,
Brian Westbrook / Correll Buckhalter & Ryan Moats. The FB, with Corey
McIntyre's defection to Cincinnati will be between Josh Parry and Chris
Gocong, unless he stays at LB.
The Receiving corps took a hit, obviously w/out Owens as TE Jeff Lewis
blew his knee again and had to re-retire. That left TEs Mike Bartrum,
the KS to start w/ young L.J. Smith becoming the leading receiver with
61 catches for 682 yds and 3 TDs. Also all three backs caught at least
30 passes each. The reason for the backs and TEs to be so counted on in
the Offence is because the WRs are pretty mediocre: Reggie Brown, Todd
Pinkston, and Billy McMullen, who was very good here at
U.VA
in the NCAAs. Thanks god the Eagles found TEs Andy Thorn and Steve
Spach ('Spock', watch the ears). In the offseason, the Eagles signed
Schobel, a real good TE from the Bengals. Expect both Schobel and Smith
to start to help the running game they better.
The Offesive Line is rebuilding though 'Tra Thomas, Shawn Andrews,
Centre Hank Fraley, Jon Runyan, who owns the San Diego Riptide of Af2
and William Thomas would hope to stay healthy this year. Ast.H.Coach/Offensive
Coordinator Marty (ArenaBowl) Mornhinweg hopes so. The Defence of
Ast.H.Coach Jim Johnson will still be a potent unit with Paul Gramanis,
Jasper from Da Raidahs, Juqua Thomas, Darell Lee and slightly overrated
Javon (Lighweight) Kearse up front. This group is starting to show it's
age a bit. The LBing, aside from perrenial Pro Bowl'r Jeremiah Trotter
is thin with Dhani Jones, Matt McCoy, Barber, Mark Simoneau and Trent
Cole. Some experience here and there, but these guys better grow up
quick. Under Johnson I believe they will.
The Secondary consists of Ss Brian Dawkins and Matt Ware with Ed Conico
in reserve. The CBs are Dexter Wynn, Lito Shepard and Roderick Hood.
Not as good as three yrs., ago when the Eagles put three of the
starting four Pro Bowl NFC DBs in the lineup in Honolulu. The Special
Teams consists of ex-Ar.FL K Dave Akers who Myk and I talked to on the
sidelines several years ago and P Dirk Johnson, who also once played
for Rhein ("AAA"). The Coverage is good and returns with Reno Mahe
above average. Predicted Finish: 10-6-0, or 9-7-0. The Eagles will
recover from Owens naplam job on their psych or they will implode.
Mornhinweg is on the hotseat and so is Johnson. The Capt'n (Reid) will
go down with the ship he built if Garcia and Chang can't hold this
thing together if McNabb comes up sick, lame or lazy again. Johnson or
Mornhinweg will have to walk the plant if it looks like they can't get
by Dallas and Washington or the putrid N.Y.G-men. I predict it'll all
come out in the wash and when the smoke clears at the end of the year,
barely, the Eagles WILL make the playoffs and maybe, just maybe win the
toughest Division this year in the NFL!" Moose

your comments about how you think the Eagles will go in 06 or comment

Mon
March 20 06 "Terrell Owens a Cowboy. Wow that seems Bizarre! His former
mate Jeff Garcia a Eagle!" Myk Aussie
Here's a great pic Cwoa Merideth
my camera Cwoa took of Jeff Garcia right on the sidelines of Pro Bowl. Jeff is giving Merideth
the Hawaii Aloha hand sign.
Terrell Owens a
Cowboy! It has happened Terrell Owens has signed with the Dallas
Cowboys a 3 year contract that includes a $5 million signing bonus. To
me Dallas seemed like the last place TO was going to go to. Why?
Remember when Terrell was a 49er and the famous run he did after
scoring a touchdown to the middle of the field to slam the ball down
onto the Dallas Star! Cowboys players then swarmed on him in anger and
rightly so. I thought it was very funny.
Then there is legend Cowboys Coach Bill Parcells. The Tuna they call
him who has been quite successful the past couple of years with the
Cowboys. To me it seemed like Bill would not want Terrell at the team
he is coaching. I bet nearly every NFL fan will be watching keenly to
see how long it takes for Terrell to screw up. I think he will go maybe
nearly a year, can't see him lasting the 3 years though. But hey I wish
he signed with the Broncos.
Jeff Garcia a Eagle!
So as Terrell Owens leaves the Eagles his former mate Jeff Garcia
joined them to backup Donovan McNabb. Garcia and Owens were a great
combination at the 49ers several years ago and then the much publicized
Terrell Owens bagging of Jeff since. I firmly believe Jeff Garcia
should have stayed at the 49ers played for less money as his career has
nose dived badly since. He has had unsuccessful times at the Cleveland
Brown "Shitta me Pants" and then at the Detroit Lions.
Terrell's former mate Jeff Garcia! I met both Terrell Owens and
Jeff Garcia who were out and about at the Pro Bowl. Mike Morreale the
CFL Hamilton Tiger Cat player was with both of them and Mike introduced
me to both Terrell and Jeff at the great Beach Bar in Honolulu that
some of the players hang out at during Pro Bowl week. So they used to
be mates of some sort. Updated March

Eagles NFL
05 preview!" Myk
Aussie
I
simply had to talk about Terrell Owens on SportsRage last night. This guy
has been the talk all week as he got ejected from camp after arguing with
coach Reid. I was lucky enough to meet many of the Eagles players at last
years Super Bowl Media Day. A extra special good luck to the Eagles this
year as I am now a Burnaby Eagle in the Western CDN Aussie Rules Footy
League.

" Myk
From
Moose "Philadelphia
Eagles, 0-2 in Super Bowls. Coach: Andy Reid. QBs: Donovan
McNabb, Mike McMahon, Tim Chang. Other Key Players: Brian
Westbrook, RB/KR, K David Akers, who Myk and I met on the sidelines
at the Pro Bowl in Feb.’03, WRs Todd Pinkston, Terrell Owens,
Centre Hank Fraley, DB Brian Dawkins. T.O., what trouble you’ve
brought down on present employer! Yesterday, Tuesday, Aug.
9th, Coach Andy Reid got sick of Owens disruptions and sent
the
moody, talented, athletic player home.
Despite the fact that the Eagles
have more than enough talent to win the NFC East by a mile it
may all come down to naught this year. I still believe in Donovan McNabb
and if the Eagles can pick up one or two good WRs (Jerry Rice?)
they
still may be able to get back to the Super Bowl. Perhaps they sent
Freddie
Mitchell, the underachiever to K.C. too quickly? With Westbrook carrying
the ball 65% of the time, they are in good shape. There really
are no major weaknesses anywhere on this talented 12-4-0 squad.
The
backup QB job handled badly last year by retreads Jeff Blake and
one of
the Detmer sisters (I can’t remember it’s name) has been taken
care of
by acquiring McMahon, who jumped at the chance to get out of
the nuthouse of Mooch’s in Motor City. Moody players have come and
gone.
Ryan Leaf or how about the original bad boy, Jeff George. Who can
forget
the June Jones v. Jeff George sideline staredown in Atlanta? George
was
warned by Jones to stop changing the plays the Coach was sending in
and
George called one too many audibles. He threw and INT. and when he
came off
the fields, Jones told him, “you’re out.” George then proceeded
to
berate his Coach and ended up being waived and bounced to six
other
clubs, one twice and is now gone. How long before teams give up
on Owens
who seems to be throwing out a good career? Predicted finish:12-4-0,

Jan
22, 05 "A excellent interview with Eagles Jeremiah Trotter!"
Myk Aussie
Direct
from NFL Media
Q.
What is it like to chase Michael Vick for 60 minutes or however long you
have to chase him?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: It’s not fun, but you do what you have to do.
Michael Vick is a very explosive player. He's very fast. You need
to get everybody running to the football. When you do that, good
things happen.
Q.
What is it specific about his running style that make him dangerous?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: I would say his speed. He's so much faster. He
has more speed than anyone else in the game. When you have that
type of speed at quarterback, most times on the defensive side of the
ball, you don't really see the quarterback as a runner. And this
guy, he's definitely a guy that can change the game. He has changed
the game. And he definitely can make plays when he has to.
Q.
I know you guys are heavy on blitzing. How disciplined do you have
to be in that area with a guy like him because if he gets free, gets
away, you know what can happen?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: We have to be disciplined. Even when we're not
blitzing, we have to be disciplined up front. Our game plan has
always been to put pressure on the quarterback. So that's not going
to change. I don't think we have to change anything different from
the defensive standpoint, we just have to be a little more disciplined up
front.
Q.
You probably know that teams with good team speed have been able to
contain Michael. How do you rate your team speed on that regard?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: I say we have great team speed. Not only that, I
think we played the Michael as a team. We're a very athletic team.
We put a lot of guys into the Pro Bowl. We have a lot of players on
this team that can make plays all over the field. The most important
thing is going out, executing the defense, executing the game plan, and
we'll be successful.
Q.
Can you talk about what led to your return to Philadelphia, your thoughts
when you first came back?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: It's been a long, long road, long story. The most
important thing, is I'm back. I'm excited that I'm back.
Everything has worked out very well for me.
Q.
With the history there, obviously this week I know Donovan McNabb said he
felt the pressure was on Atlanta. It has to be on your team,
considering the history, the fact that you've all been to this level
before, you haven't been able to get past it.
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: There's no pressure. I don't think there's any
pressure on either side. We
want to win the football game very bad. We've had a successful
season. I don't think there's any pressure on either side.
We're going to go out and play hard on our side, try to execute the game
plan and go from there.
Q.
Do you feel the weight of the city somewhat, though, because of the fans,
how much I guess they want to get past this next game?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: Not at all. No, we're not worried about the past.
The past is behind us. Before the season started, we set goals for
ourselves. We accomplished all those goals thus far.
Q.
How have you seen Donovan McNabb grow as a leader?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: Just in experience. He's more comfortable. The
older he got, he's just become a better leader. I think his
accuracy has been outstanding the last few years. Like say, he's
become a better quarterback with time. I think with him, that was
the most important thing.
Q.
Can you talk about the personality of Eagles fans? How would you
describe to somebody if they knew nothing about Eagles fans?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: Man, they’re just crazy. The Eagles fans are
crazy. They got the playoff fever, Super Bowl fever, and they're excited
about everything that's going on.
Q.
Have you heard anything from any fans this week, giving you
congratulations at all?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: Yeah. They were congratulating us on the game last
week and looking forward to this week, too.
Q.
How about Warrick Dunn?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: Warrick Dunn is definitely a guy that can take the ball
the distance on you, he can take the big run, he can blow up a game.
He's a tough runner. He's small but he's a very tough runner.
Has to get a lot of guys around him who can tackle very well. You
just got to try to contain him. He's one of the few backs in the
NFL that can cut the ball all the way backside on you, so you got to be
disciplined on the backside as well as the front side.
Q.
The Falcons put up 47 points against the Rams. You guys were pretty
aggressive against Minnesota. What do you have to do to try
to stop the Falcons?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: That's what we want. We want those guys to try to
line up. Myself, I look forward to teams trying to run straight at
us. We'll be ready. We know those guys are a great running
team, but we have a great defense also. We'll be ready come Sunday.
Q.
Was Daunte Culpepper a dry run for Michael?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: I think playing against Culpepper kind of helped us a
little bit. He's pretty fast, too. I mean, obviously he's not
the athlete and has the speed of Michael Vick.As far as game
plan‑wise, I think playing Daunte will help us a little bit.
Q.
How do you think Michael would fare as a runningback?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: You know what, he would be an outstanding running back if
he could get his weight up. He would definitely have to put on some
more muscle. You know, it's a different beast when you're at running
back. At running back, you take a lot of shots. So I don't know if
he could take that many shots right now.
Q.
When you were with the Redskins and you were looking at the Eagles
championship games, did you look at them and ask yourself or figure out
what they were missing, what was the missing ingredient to win in those
games?
JEREMIAH
TROTTER: No, I really wasn't thinking about it. I was just
watching the game, being a fan.

"Eagles vs Cowboys week 10!" Myk Aussie
From
NFL Media
PHILADELPHIA
EAGLES (7-1) at DALLAS COWBOYS (3-5) (Monday night, ABC, 9:00 PM ET):
A throw-out-the-records division battle. It’s Cowboys-Eagles…Parcells
vs. Reid…T.O. on MNF.
Philly
had defeated Dallas six times in a row before Cowboys head coach BILL
PARCELLS returned to the NFL last year. The teams split in ’03, and
Parcells carries a 7-2 record as Cowboys coach against the NFC East into
the game. Eagles head man ANDY REID has his own proud numbers.
Philadelphia is 13-1 on Monday nights under him, and he owns a 17-6
(.739) November record.
The
Cowboys will have their hands full with Philadelphia’s DONOVAN MC NABB-TERRELL
OWENS combination. McNabb is 12-1 in primetime in his career. Owens has
caught at least one TD pass in his past six Monday games, tying JERRY
RICE for the best such streak in Monday Night Football history.

Thurs, Sept
2, 04 "Scott's Philadelphia Eagles NFL 04 Preview!"
The
Big question is will Terrell Owens behave himself and play great footy
teaming up with the great QB Donovan McNabb. Or will be misbehave
himself, seek all the fame and glory But still play great footy,
probably. He is definitely
one of the very best Wide Receivers in the NFL. I met Terrell at Pro Bowl
02 in the bar. Guess who he was hanging out with? It was Jeff Garcia and
my CFL mate CFL Mike Morreale. Check out the Video to the left for close
up action of Donovan McNabb on the sidelines at NFL Pro Bowl 03. Here's
Scotty's excellent 04 Eagles preview." Myk Aussie
"NFL
Titles - 3 (1948, 1949, 1960) Super Bowl Record - 0-1 (Lost to Oakland
27-10, Super Bowl XV) Coach - Andy Reid - 51-29 in 4 years of coaching
2003
review: The Eagles overcame a rough start by Donovan McNabb, who had a
thumb problem on his throwing hand and a porous run
defense due to massive injuries on the defensive line in order to
win their 3rd straight Eastern Division title and home field
advantage. They would win a dramatic divisional game against the
Green Bay Packers where they converted on a 4th and 26 with about a
minute to go in regulation. A week later, they were dominated by the
upstart Carolina Panthers 14-3 in the NFC Championship Game. That loss
represented the third loss in a row for the "E-A-G-L-E-S
EAGLES!", the first since Dallas from 80-82. It also marked the
first time a home team lost 2 championship games in a row.
Don't
worry Eagles' fans, you still have the "Body Bag" game to
remember. Granted that was about 15 years ago.
2004:
The Eagles made two big acquisitions. Terrell Owens and Jevon Kearse. TO
will provide the receiving threat that the Eagles have been lacking
since Andy Reid arrived in Philly. Kearse, aka The Freak, when healthy,
could wreak havoc on opposing quarterbacks. However, Kearse has been
injury plagued since his sensational rookie year in 1999 when he had 16
sacks and won Rookie of the Year. He tallied 9.5 sacks for the Tennessee
Titans in 2003.

Carlos Emmons (Giants), Deuce Staley (Steelers), Bobby Taylor
(Seahawks), Troy Vincent (Bills), AJ Feeley (Dolphins), John Welbourn
(Chiefs), James Thrash (Skins)
Question
Marks: Cornerbacks
- Longtime corners Bobby Taylor and Troy Vincent have left the Eagles
thereby leaving the starting jobs to Lito Sheppard and Sheldon Brown,
the top two draft picks from 2002. Sheppard has more experience than
Brown, serving as the 3rd corner and starting due to injuries to both
Taylor and Vincent. These are big shoes to fill under Jim Johnson's
blitzing defense.
Running
backs - Deuce Staley left for the Steelers as a free agent and it will
be a bigger loss due to the fact that Correll Buckhalter had another
season ending knee injury before the season. That leaves the running to
Bryant Westbrook, Reno Mahae, and recently signed Dorsey Levens, who
played for the Eagles in 2002. Westbrook will handle the bulk of the
carries, but their best running back wears number 5 for the Eagles.
McNabb may have to run more than usual. Mahae is more of a 3rd down back
and Levens' signing was more a last resort due to the injury of
Buckhalter.
Linebackers: Before
he was injured, Carlos Emmons was their best defender. When he was
injured, along with injuries in the interior, the Eagles run defense
suffered. He has since signed with the Giants. Jeremiah Trotter
re-signed with the Eagles after 2 disappointing years with the Redskins.
He is expected to perform or close to the level of Pro Bowl status when
he was with the Eagles. A knee injury in 2002 and a questionable
attitude has greatly dimished his stature around the league from a
couple years ago. Also Dhani Jones was signed to replace Emmons on the
outside. He too, has also battled the injury bug, and was a
disappointment with the Giants the previous season.
Strengths:
Quarterback: Donovan
McNabb IS the Eagles. He was terrible at the beginning of the season.
The Eagles were 0-2, his qb rating was about a 30, plus the Rush
Limbaugh incident for which McNabb had no control. After that, the
Eagles went 12-2, his rating jumped almost 55 points, led his team to a
division title, and was a MVP candidate. Now he finally gets a bonafide
Pro Bowl receiver in Owens. The receivers he has had before, uber-thin
Todd Pinkston, now traded James Thrash, and first round bust
Freddie Mitchell would be no better than no. 3 receivers on a good team.
Offensive
Line: This is a very good unit, and it will be better
with the addition of 2004 1st round pick James Andrews at guard.
Tra Thomas and Jon Runyan are, arguably, the best bookend tackles in the
NFL.
Special
Teams: Not as good when they had Brian Mitchell as their kick returner,
but it is a solid group that does not allow the big play. Plus they have
a perennial Pro Bowl kicker in David Akers.
Weakness:
Interior Defense - Losses
due to injuries of Hollis Thomas, Paul Grasmanis and Carlos Emmons made
their run defense almost non-existant. They allowed a hundred yard
rusher the last 8 games of the season. The health of one or both will
greatly improve their line.
2004
Outlook: The Eagles will contend for the NFC crown and odds on fate to
be the NFC representative in Super Bowl XXXIX. They will win the East,
but will fall short again at home. 12-4 is my prediction. Poor Philly,
even their hometown horse, Smarty Jones, couldn't come through in the
clutch.
