Shady McCoy = beast mode today, broke Eagles single game rushing record. Best back in football.

Once he figured out you run north-south when there's 6 inches of snow on the field, he had a hell of a day. He tried the juking for a quarter before figuring it out.

Going to see the Iggles this weekend! (While not a born-and-raised fan of the team, I do like them.)

He's a slasher, not a bruiser. Looks like he'll take home the rushing title this year.

Yep, it's a new reality. Dude is 25 & not handcuffed by Andy Reid anymore, get used to it.....

Not sure why the quizzical look - he's surely in the conversation with any other back in the NFL right now.

Cowboys fan. You know. The team behind the Eagles in the standings.

The Eagles-Bears game got flexed today to Sunday Night Football next week. Good thing as it was supposed to kick at 1pm & I would've missed the whole game flying back into the country. To say I'm pumped is an understatement!!

McCoy is a great back but there is no doubt AP is the best back in football right now.

AP's led his team to three wins this year as well.

Also:

You try piling up big rushing numbers when every team you play knows you're the only threat to move the ball.

That is fantastic. But winning the rushing title doesn't make you the best running back in football. Obviously yards are great but not all there is. Also, are we talking about this season or overall?

People don't know McCoy's back there for the Eagles? YPC: McCoy 5.0; AP 4.6

Let's go with this season, since AP's been playing over twice as many seasons as McCoy. Hey, it's the NFL. It's a short career. AP has peaked and is starting to get all the little dings that an older RB gets. McCoy is just reaching his prime.

DeMarco Murray 5.3 YPC, is he better than McCoy?

Whole package, nope. But Murray is good. One of my better midseason pickups. I got some good use from him for a few weeks.

The Eagles have a good QB and passing game. The Vikes, not so much.

If you are talking just this season, then yes, McCoy is having the best season out of all running backs. However if I were going to make a dream team to win me a Super Bowl for next season I would take AP.

Would like to rewind a year or two and tell me how Flacco is a caretaker and will never win any big games too?

Sometimes you just have to embrace the present for what it is.

Flacco is a caretaker who will never win any big games without poor play by the Denver secondary.

I bet McCoy could make AP fall down when he jukes past him. AP's better days are behind him, McCoy is like a reincarnation of Barry Sanders.

Really? Lose to the Vikings?

Really? Lose to the Vikings?

Trading TD's for FG's is a losing proposition.

Eagles defense still not ready for prime time. Once Chip gets that fixed via the draft and FA, look out league.
