Well, made my first Eagles bet of the year. Not a full sized bet, but seems like 4.5 points at home is a bit generous so I had to take a little. Not sure if they win, but I think they put up a decent showing. Hope I'm right.

Barkley coming back to this mess is about as exciting as when he came back from injury with the Giants. I’m guessing about 10 carries for 25 yards….hope I’m wrong.

Pokes get a FG on their opening drive, to take a 3-0 lead with 12:30 left in the 1st qtr.

Dallas left the points on the board. Smart move with this abysmal Eagles offense.

Barkley’s turrible.

Aikman desperately wants Saquon out of the game.

I was wrong quickly, but hopefully he can keep playing.

Once again you are wrong

 

[Grant Green]

Haha, great call on the Barkley hammy Troy. TD!
Hope I don't eat those words later.

Definitely wrong so far.

The Eagles D is embarrassing for the continuity they have had from last year.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

9-yard pass to Lamb in the endzone for the Pokes.

With the PAT, it's 10-7, Pokes, with 5:32 left in the 1st qtr

That was way too easy.

The Cowboys with some timely penalties so far.

This McKee kid is the best Stanford kid to qb the Iggles since the legendary Mike Boryla.
