Eagles-Cowboys game time changed

POSTED: Monday, December 22, 2008, 11:19 AM

Daily News staff

The Eagles game against the Dallas Cowboys has been moved to a 4:15 p.m. start, the NFL announced.

The game, at Lincoln Financial Field, had been scheduled for a 1 p.m. start. It will remain televised by Fox.

There was some thought that the game might be moved to the Sunday night flex game on NBC, but the league opted last night to choose San Diego vs. Denver for the AFC West title instead.

Miami Dolphins-New York Jets and Jacksonville Jaguars-Baltimore Ravens games will move to 4:15 p.m.

Even if the Eagles win the fate of their playoff chances are in the hands of the OAKLAND RAIDERS!!!!

The last sentence of this story should have ended "There was some thought that the game might be moved to the Sunday night flex game on NBC, but the league opted last night to choose San Diego vs. Denver for the AFC West title instead....because the Eagles s uck so bad."

Who cares after yesterday's game???Even if it is the Cowpies, I am tired of wasting 3+hrs watching this "just give me my paycheck it doesn't matter if we win or not" team. We need a real GM and an offensive coordinator.

Clearly, LJ has "outplayed" his contract.

Shabba, why don't you give up your tix then so real fans can go to the games?

I bet with a better tight end the result of last nights game is different. Forget Jackson's two drops, although we needed them. If LJ "block hands" Smith doesn't drop those two that were definite first downs, things may have been different. That's what kills momentum, bone head drops on third down... not downfield shots that bounce away.

Not only are the Eagles done, but it will really be a kick in the slats if Joe Buck does the game....

Relax people, the Eagles are DONE for this season! They are toast and they did it to themselves--so don't feel too badly. Thank God, there's always next year!

I'd like to see the fans send Lurie a message and empty the stadium for the 4th quarter.
