Us Eagles fans know that we're 12-3 at heart anyways, right? :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/126254-akers-missed-field-goal/#findComment-1513013 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatnipOligarchy Posted December 25, 2003 Share Posted December 25, 2003 what BS. i hate FOX. they do whatever they can to ruin baseball and football, they tried to ruin hockey with the flaming puck, that didnt go over too well. ive been to a few games where the skycam was being used and ive thought about what might happen if it was hit by a pass or a field goal. fox needs to take care of this and some regulations need to be put on the skycam Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/126254-akers-missed-field-goal/#findComment-1513251 Share on other sites More sharing options...

autodefe Posted December 25, 2003 Share Posted December 25, 2003 Niners better? lol, nah. I'll admit perhaps we're not a BETTER team per say, but you can't blame the loss on Fox. Take a look at the game stats. Plus if you check NFL.com you'll clearly see SF is ranked higher overall. We're 10th in defense overall (Philly is 21st.. uh huh) and 5th in overall offense (Philly is 19th). Now what? Besides, teams and players get unfair calls every game. It's nothing new.
