Just wanted to say that, in a way, it feels like that was the 1st real Eagles game I’ve watched in 10 years. It kind of hurts that they took that color away from us, and I never realized how much it bugged me until I saw them run out of the tunnel yesterday. The hairs stood up on my arms. I realize that a lot of the young guys are more used to “midnight green” than Kelly, but there is, and only ever has been, 1 color for the Philadelphia Eagles. The color my grandfather knew, the color my father knew, and the color I hope they’ll decide to bring back for good. God I missed those birds- and man it was good to see them again.

We should have beat this team and we did, so that’s a good thing.

- Offensive line looks a little shaky, but they’re (relatively) healthy so hopefully they can get it going a little tighter. Plus the skins ends are pretty sweet. I miss Reggie.

- That said, our defensive pressure was pretty awesome. Forcing the Redskins to punt after giving them the ball on our own 35 yard line was pretty badass!

- Loved the shot of the sad Pig Pen at the end. I have to admit, I love that those guys dress up like that. I love it even more when they’re sad piggies.

- Final thought: we have some sick wide receivers. I can’t wait to watch those guys play for years to come.

- Oh wait one more thing– love that I’d take any of our 3 quarterbacks over Jason Campbell. Please Washington, keep him around forever? (same goes for Romo btw. Keep Romo forever. Please.)
