Hi Rob,
There are several things to consider in what will allow the Eagles to be victorious.....none of them scientific...... you must understand, I have nothing but the utmost respect for the Patriots, and their talented players. They are an excellent, well balanced team, and, as much as I hate to say it, their quarterback, is outstanding! Look at what they did to the Steelers!
However, I beleive part of what will be a motivating factor is, " Who wants it more?" Now, it can be argued that both teams do, but it has been 23 years since the Eagles have been to the Superbowl, so I think that gives them a slight edge there.
Also, they have one of the very best teams they have had in as long as I can remember, and they have not shown much weakness anywhere.
And lastly, I believe they will win because......... are you ready for this answer??? It is agood one....one that should give the Eagles lots and lots of confidence......
Because I really really really want them to win, darn it!! Isn't that part of what makes rooting for your favorite team the most fun?
As long as it is a well played game, I will survive a loss, but I do hope that this is our year!!
BTW, I haven't drank a Molson since my college days 20 some years ago, but after reading the other post, I think I might get a six pack for the game on Sunday!
