MAX needs to speak to boxing commentary because he is way off when it comes to the NFL.....in his eyes he will say Nick Foles has a better career then Brady
And their defense was still exceptional in that game. The Jags made necessary stops, forced a turnover on a critical drive, but their offense couldn't get it done. Realistically, if the Jags had even one more good drive that resulted in points on the board, it would've been game over.
LMAO. Of course the Eagles was more impressive. Tom Brady is Tom Brady and he does Tom Brady things. Nick Foles putting up 38 on the Vikings defense was impressive. Should be a good Super Bowl!
The eagles and it's not even close. The eagles committed murder on live TV and I am not being rude but it was magical they dismantled every aspect of the Vikings
UnPhayzable yea if you really watched the games you would see Jaguars are a better actual defense. and keenum and bortles weren't really different in actual play.
The Vikings are not the best defense in the league on the road. "Best defense" my ass. The Jags were so much better than the Vikings. They went into Pittsburgh on the road and played a great game. Then, they went into NE and almost won the game if not for that 4th quarter collapse.
Victor Marques Bruh, Most ppl / myself included EXPECT the Pats to win but no one expects the Eagles to do shit. You stop it. I fully expect the Pats to win the SB. God damn lol, you Patriot fans need to find a fkn life. Media, sports writers, and local papers write all about how NE / Brady are GOAT. Got read that shit and comment over there.
Victor Marques Bruh, ESPN are constantly calling the Bill Belichick the Greatest coach ever and Brady the GOAT. What hate are you talking about? All the fake news stuff don’t mean anything, they just need shit to talk about. C’mon
Silk Boxing don't think I could do that Lol. But the facts are the facts, I definitely believe its the eagles year, and if Wentz was there the superbowl would probably be a lock for yall.
I was more impressed with the Patriots coming back on that defense everybody has been gassing up...Foles impressed me but other than that I knew Philly was gonna beat the shit out the Vikings for Meek
Stephen A. Arguing for the sake of an argument for the show. Eagles was definitely the most impressive after seeing what Minnesota's defense has done all season. Patriots won because of penalties and missed calls? 0 penalties the entire game? Gotta love how the Patriots just get to do what they want. No wonder Bortles cried so hard.
the eagles shut the falcons offense down they only scored 10 points because of turnovers you guys sound stupid the falcons had 4 tries at the goal line to score and the eagles stood their ground that's called playing great defense when it matters the most the eagles weren't suppose to lose to the falcons they outplayed the falcons the whole game.
Bruh the Patriots barely beat blake bortles and the Jags at home and had a more impressive win than back up qb Nick Foles beating the best defense in football, going 8-10 against the best 3rd down defense in the past 25years and 114 passer rating?
That was not the best defense in football. When they play outside their dome, they're not the same team. The Panthers scored like 30 points on them as well back in December.
Patriots were 9.5 point favourites against the Jags, and won a very close game - in no small part due to Jag penalties of which one crucial one can be considered a suspect call. Eagles were IIRC 3 point underdogs against the Vikings, and utterly blew they away. That's all that needs to be said - lots of unnecessary talk in this segment
Your getting a bit confused. You can ascertain how well a team performed by comparing what happened with what was predicted to happen - and who better to predict than those who's very job it is to do so.
Francos Farms debatable, they lost to impressive team panthers by a few points, lost to steelers by three touchdowns (there worst game) but slaughtered the rams who were dominate. Slapped the saints twice even though the second time it took Williams tripping on a Mario banana to pull it off. There schedule wasn't easy to say the least but you can't blame there schedule for their playing of lack there of. They don't make the schedule so don't complain about it. If that's the case then complain about the patriots who play in the weakest division of all of football. Put them into a NFC conference and they arnt going to be nearly impressive looking. They may win a game or so but they sure as hell will be banged up afterwards.
After a long term legacy of failure from the Eagles, to see them beat the Patriots in a Superbowl would be the greatest victory for the entire organization
I had the Eagles being 1 and done. Then they beat the Falcons and then doubled down and said they're getting destroyed by the #1 defense, and then they smack them like there's no tomorrow. While I knew the Jags had a good shot to win, I was in no way placing bets on them, they were against the odds. Eagles were miles ahead more impressive.
S A S knows Philly very well ! Thanks for keeping the public in toon wit us for Years !! Me and my family and friends appreciate you when you let them know what’s up 215✌🏽
Agree with SAS, Jags gave Pats all they could handle while the Vikings folded like a lawn chair under the pressure of possibly playing the SB at home...
Lying to yourself if you say Pats were more impressive than the Eagles. That's okay gonna be glad to see another NFC East QB defeat Brady and the Cheatriots.
The Pats' wins over the Jags and Titans were so much more impressive than the Eagles beating the Falcons and Vikings. If Julio Jones could catch the ball late in the 4th quarter, the Eagles would have lost at home. The Vikings are not a road team, and their defense is not the same outside that dome. Even the Panthers scored 30+ points on that team.
Aaron Rodgers #Overrated - No, if Julio Jones caught that ball late in the fourth, the ball would have went right back to the eagles because when he landed his feet were out of bounds, anyway. Even if his feet were IN bounds, there was over a minute on the clock where the eagles could have drove down the field and got a field goal to win it. --- But anyway, I said the same thing about the Vikings not being all that great of a road team. I mean, their most impressive win on the road was when they beat the falcons 14-7.
I would argue I was more impressed with the refs, made some clutch plays in key situations and also down the stretch props to the refs for making the super bowl you earned
The Eagles should thank the refs for carrying them to the NFC championship game. Julio Jones played like garbage in the 4th quarter of that divisional round game.
Even im a pats fan and coming back in yet another 4th quarter to win the afc is impressive but with the eagles injuries and losing wentz and stepping up like they have was very impressive. I cant wait for the superbowl
I'm a die hard Pats fan but the Eagles victory was impressive. The Pats victory was more unexpected based on the way the game was going for the first 3 quarters. I think the NFC championship was over by the first half. This does not mean that I believe the Eagles will win Super Bowl 52. I think it was silly to make the Eagles the underdog in the NFC championship. The Eagles will have to play better than they have ever played in their history to beat the Patriots. I did not know until yesterday that Brady's mother is from Minnesota and the super bowl is in Minnesota. I think everyone knows Brady is motivated by his family and to win a super bowl in his mother's home state. I think this is more motivation for him than a 6th super bowl.
Scott Longmore shit, I thought he was from Cali. Anyway, as an Eagles fan, your team is scariest in the 4th, so for me it was expected. That being said, I am pulling for Philly to win it. I am seeing some surprising similarities between our team now, and you guys circa 2002. We'll see how it goes down next weekend. Destiny vs. Dynasty.
Pluto, he is an idiot. I would not talk about the deficiencies of the Vikings to a degree that sounds like they are beneath the skill to compete with the Eagles, and then pick them to win. That is dumb, cause if I listened to myself, I would clearly pick the Eagles in that contest. If you pick against your own reasoning it is idiotic.
W C Because he’s talking about things that happened in the moment of the game. Everyone speculated what he brought up would happen but again it was all SPECULATION at the time
Yeah bro, i hear that. The best part of being fan are the highs and mostly lows of following a team...chasing the dream of a chip. I know most of you hate us eagle fans, we have done some stupid shit in the past to warrant that disgust, but its in the past. We need you all to back us for one game and help us dethrone the dynasty...send out those positive vibs (if u believe in that shig)pray to your god, burn a goat in our honor, do whatever you can to get behind us and lets give someone lse a chance in tbe afc to be winners. If the pats lose...i think the empire will start to crumble!! ((I was kidding about the goat thing...but it was a nice pun if i do say so))
Stephen A Smith’s argument was weak. He’s saying that the patriots at home, being favorites, winning by a few points, is more impressive of a win than 3 point underdogs with a back up quarterback, missing Jason Peters, missing Hicks, missing sproles, missing CARSON WENTZ, absolutely demolishing a number one ranked defense......makes sense
It’s not really an argument. He was just saying the patriots impressed him more than the eagles did. Not taking away any credit from the Vikings but they should have lost last week lol. The fluke play at the end is what won them the game. They beat the saints off a missed tackle. I didnt expect the Vikings to do so well against the eagles tbh because of what I saw last week.
I don't understand how the Eagles were the underdogs. Number 1 seed, playing at home legitimately beat a good Falcons team to advance. Vikings, an average road team, with a history of choking in the playoffs. Blew a lead against the Saints and won off a freak play. Their luck ran out. Even looking at the regular season, Vikings had ONE impressive win the whole season, against the Falcons. They got two cupcake matchups with a Rodgersless Green Bay (Granted the first meeting he played for a TINY bit before getting injured, 4 passes). This Vikings team was pretty over rated. The Eagles had been pretty consistent all year. SO I don't really think The Eagles were more impressive. A few days ago Max was saying Brady has the most to prove out of all 4 QBs. Brady did what he always does. Even when they were losing they still felt like the better team, and it was only a matter of time before the scoring started. Can't say for sure who was more impressive, but people are REALLY overstating the Vikings.
Eagles offense last night was textbook mastery. I don't care if either team wins. I'm not partial to either of them. I'm just saying from a removed impartial spectator observation of both games, the Eagles offense last night was something you see in epic sports films. It was damn magical.
Yeah, they give Vikings praise just to fit their narrative. Yet all I heard is how they didn't even deserve to be in the game to begin with. Whatever. 🙄
As an eagles fan watching foles last week I'm impressed I'm really hoping we can redeem ourselves from our Super Bowl lost against the patriots in 04 You got this birds they always doubt us
I'm a Pats fan but I have to disagree with Stephen Smith, Brady does what he always does, but NOBODY expected that outcome from the Eagles Vikings game, the Vikings barely won against the Saints but I thought they were going to be a problem for Philly and many didnt expect the Eagles to still be in it after losing Carson.
Funny... week after week these guys talk out of their ass in order to sound " more right" about their argument and all continue to be wrong. Max should be working at Wal-Mart, not wasting a salary at ESPN.
The Vikings just showed up they didn't even play to win while the jags showed up and really gave it their all which to me was the best game of the 2 and to watch a 40 year old qb still doing what he was in early career now that my friend is really dam impressive!
Let's talk about the BEST DEFENSE that was left in the playoffs that NO ONE gave full credit too - the Philadelphia Eagles. We're talking about a defense that gave up ZERO points to the reigning MVP in the second half for fucks sake?? I've been saying all year this Philly team is something special
A backup quarterback lighting up the best D in the league vs arguably the greatest qb of all time needing a comeback and some help from the zebras to beat the jags....decisions, decisions
Kellerman: Brady has the most to prove out of all remaining QBs, facing a once in a decade caliber defense. Kellerman: Unimpressed Brady came back against a defense that got shredded several times in the prior weeks.
Die hard eagles fan here. We want and need this super bowl win. This city and team deserves it. My only concern is that our franchise qb Carson Wentz will have to live up to the success and win his own ring, hopefully that doesn’t put too much pressure on him
As a Pats fan...the eagles surprised me, not the pats. I was actually surprised by how bad the defensive play calling was by us lol Matt Patrica made some bonehead calls
Sometimes it's obvious they have differing opinions because their producers make them. How could you even try to compare these two performances? C'mon Steve
I only see the AFC Championship game as this. Jaguars had 4 scoring drives; Patriots had 4 scoring drives. It's the little extra that gets the win, and it shows who can get done.
Eagles scored 38 against the second best defense. Pats are 4 best defense. Pats scored 24 against best defense. Eagles are third. I say eagles win 45-34
This will be a tough game for both teams. This game will essentially be system vs system. Philly has the better defense than New England, but New England has the better offense during this game. So I guess you could say that their strength and weaknesses will be going against each other. However if there is one thing Coach Pederson needs to do this game, and that is shake it up. Bill is one of the best coachs ever when it comes to making adjustments. So rush four in the first half then tell Schwartz to start bringing extra rushers after a quarter or half. Don't force Nick to eat up the Patriots secondary, then go quiet like Bortles. Start pounding the rock once you succeed at passing. This will be a chess match with what will be against what I think are the two greatest chess players this season.
I've followed Vikings defense for years and I can say without a doubt that was not the same defense in the Eagles game, they choked, the pass rush was not there, and in the back field Smith was the only one making an effort, it was a easy win for Eagles
Max is completely right believe it or not, phili is on fire no doubt, no way new England is comparable with Eagles. They r really Eagle. Steven A, u might need to pick up a ticket n whatch this Eagles, they r football made Easy, this team has change everything u can think about football. Fun to watch n very decisive, already know what it take to get job done. Listen do u look at this Eagle team as team that would see a tough team n start sweating? The answer is no. So the Eagle is the best now in the game of NFL game
*Vikings before both playoff games “Fuck yeah! We get to play at home in the Super Bowl!!!” *Patriots comeback against the Jags and Brady adds another 4th quarter comeback to his playoff resume “Yeah fuck the ‘first team to make the Super Bowl at Home’ title. Eagles good luck playing Angry Brady. We’ll wait till he retires.”
This is why i believe they disagree just so they can have a debate because in no way was the Patroits more impressive than what Philly did. We all know what Brady and Co. does every year. Philly had a big question mark going into this game and they completely dominated!
The Eagles are missing their starting Superstar quarterback, their future HOF/1st-2nd Best LT in the league, their star MLB signal Caller, and still obliterated the first ranked defense in the League while holding their offense to 7 points. How is this even a discussion😑
Brady only had that opportunity because the Pats defense gave him the ball, and the Jags thought they had it in the bag and started playing not to lose.
Think of the question this way, did the Vikings play remotely close to where they should have? Did the Jaguars play very well and to an impressive level for 3 quarters? The answers to these questions help determine who was more impressive. New England was more impressive because they suffered an injury to Gronk, Bortles played out of his mind, and New England still won. The Vikings played one of their worst games of the seasons and had the same group that they have been ridin' with for the last 10 games, and didnt show up. New England was more impressive.
Tom Brady was on 🔥.. He more than did his part to make that came very winnable.. Patriots really need to Focus on the defensive side .. and focus on it Big time.....
6:08 don’t give me that shit Max, he literally played like five more quarters than Wentz did. Keemun didn’t start week one and i forget the other week Bradford started. Thus he only played 14 games and Wentz played 12 and 3/4...
Eagles were more impressive. Number one seed and still underdogs Brady just did what he always does
The Liberal Antichrist u meant Brady and the refs
Murphy Jones 🤦♂️
Murphy Jones no I meant Brady and the patriots
SmellyAbortions your excuses is overwhelming😂😂🖕🏻🖕🏻
The Refs to Brady was like The Refs to Jordan
Lmao Max said last week that the jags will beat the pats and now he is saying the jags defense was not that good Come on Max
Charles Ferron he also tried to say Case Keenum was better than brees
Lmao that’s exactly what I thought he just tried to find a way to anti-pats in any debate
MAX needs to speak to boxing commentary because he is way off when it comes to the NFL.....in his eyes he will say Nick Foles has a better career then Brady
Max's arguments are so easy to debunk.
And their defense was still exceptional in that game. The Jags made necessary stops, forced a turnover on a critical drive, but their offense couldn't get it done. Realistically, if the Jags had even one more good drive that resulted in points on the board, it would've been game over.
LMAO. Of course the Eagles was more impressive. Tom Brady is Tom Brady and he does Tom Brady things. Nick Foles putting up 38 on the Vikings defense was impressive. Should be a good Super Bowl!
The eagles and it's not even close. The eagles committed murder on live TV and I am not being rude but it was magical they dismantled every aspect of the Vikings
Brando Williams Amen! Everyone counted my boys out. Once again, they proved everyone wrong. Hopefully they can get it done one more time.
Mr. Blue Cherry who cares if it's tom Brady Eli Manning didn't give a fuck and won
38-7 against the best defense in the league
24-20 Against the Jags
Is this even an argument?
UnPhayzable yea if you really watched the games you would see Jaguars are a better actual defense. and keenum and bortles weren't really different in actual play.
UnPhayzable Jags are the best defence in the league. Pats beat them and will beat the Eagles by 10 points.
The Vikings are not the best defense in the league on the road. "Best defense" my ass. The Jags were so much better than the Vikings. They went into Pittsburgh on the road and played a great game. Then, they went into NE and almost won the game if not for that 4th quarter collapse.
The Eagles will beat the Patriots by at least 10 points!
Chupatwo Chupatwo you sound like a salty ass hater, stay in your bum ass town
Eagles were more impressive. They continue to win while everyone counts you out.
and what do the pats do? despite being discredited after 5 superbowls and what 8 afc championships.. just stop...
Victor Marques
Bruh, Most ppl / myself included EXPECT the Pats to win but no one expects the Eagles to do shit. You stop it.
I fully expect the Pats to win the SB. God damn lol, you Patriot fans need to find a fkn life. Media, sports writers, and local papers write all about how NE / Brady are GOAT. Got read that shit and comment over there.
Victor Marques you know Dion Lewis's knee came down before he reached the pile line in SB51 O.T. winning them the game. Go look it up you'll see.
M Poly idk. New England is hated world wide and esp on espn. YOU know that
Victor Marques
Bruh, ESPN are constantly calling the Bill Belichick the Greatest coach ever and Brady the GOAT. What hate are you talking about?
All the fake news stuff don’t mean anything, they just need shit to talk about. C’mon
Cowboys fan here. I say the eagles are definitely more impressive
Cowboys & Eagles fans are oil and water but Skip Bayless is coming around too.
My new (& only) favorite Cowboys fan ;)
Robert Thomas
Your a Good Man to say that.
Your invited to my Super Bowl Party.
Philly Pa !
Silk Boxing don't think I could do that Lol. But the facts are the facts, I definitely believe its the eagles year, and if Wentz was there the superbowl would probably be a lock for yall.
caudillracing sounds like you didn't have a mother to raise you. 😲
Stephen A got destroyed here by Max
Like if arguing was a football game he lost 38-7
Taek Nam he ALWAYS gets destroyed by Max. Lol especially when talking about Philly teams. 😂😂😂 Stephen be looking so dejected. 😂😂😂
SG JR eagles did win dat chip tho
Before the game, Max was like "the Jags are a once-in-a-decade defense"; now he brings up the fact that the Steelers scored 42 points on them?!
Martin Ng He did admit he was wrong though.
twuu22 W👍
This should be a fun Super Bowl.
In hindsight, you were spot on .
GREAT game .
CLEARLY the Eagles.
I was more impressed with the Patriots coming back on that defense everybody has been gassing up...Foles impressed me but other than that I knew Philly was gonna beat the shit out the Vikings for Meek
Stephen A. Arguing for the sake of an argument for the show. Eagles was definitely the most impressive after seeing what Minnesota's defense has done all season. Patriots won because of penalties and missed calls? 0 penalties the entire game? Gotta love how the Patriots just get to do what they want. No wonder Bortles cried so hard.
Christopher Buie they got 1 penalty
Always tryna use the refs as an excuse 😂
The Eagles are lucky Julio Jones played like crap in the 4th quarter of that game.
Aaron Rodgers #Overrated #9-7 in the Playoffs #0-5 vs. Dan Quinn Defenses #4 TDs-5 INTs in NFCCs Or maybe the Eagles are the better team...
the eagles shut the falcons offense down they only scored 10 points because of turnovers you guys sound stupid the falcons had 4 tries at the goal line to score and the eagles stood their ground that's called playing great defense when it matters the most the eagles weren't suppose to lose to the falcons they outplayed the falcons the whole game.
Bruh the Patriots barely beat blake bortles and the Jags at home and had a more impressive win than back up qb Nick Foles beating the best defense in football, going 8-10 against the best 3rd down defense in the past 25years and 114 passer rating?
That was not the best defense in football. When they play outside their dome, they're not the same team. The Panthers scored like 30 points on them as well back in December.
You say bortles like He's bad... Bortles played his heart out
Uhh you mean the team that dropped 45 on Pittsburgh and best pass defense in the league?
Nick Sacco 141 QBR
Nick Sacco do u really think its because Foles is so great or the vikings just had a bad day?
Patriots were 9.5 point favourites against the Jags, and won a very close game - in no small part due to Jag penalties of which one crucial one can be considered a suspect call.
Eagles were IIRC 3 point underdogs against the Vikings, and utterly blew they away.
That's all that needs to be said - lots of unnecessary talk in this segment
Al James
Al James So Vegas now decides how impressively a team plays? Your argument is based on pregame odds and is therefore invalid. Weeb
Your getting a bit confused. You can ascertain how well a team performed by comparing what happened with what was predicted to happen - and who better to predict than those who's very job it is to do so.
As a patriots fan I can say it obviously was the eagles we won by 4, they won by 31...
I think it showed really how terrible the Vikings really are , soft schedule
Francos Farms debatable, they lost to impressive team panthers by a few points, lost to steelers by three touchdowns (there worst game) but slaughtered the rams who were dominate. Slapped the saints twice even though the second time it took Williams tripping on a Mario banana to pull it off.

If that's the case then complain about the patriots who play in the weakest division of all of football. Put them into a NFC conference and they arnt going to be nearly impressive looking. They may win a game or so but they sure as hell will be banged up afterwards.
Respect. Y'all gotta stop cheating tho
ANJELINA ALEXANDER it don't even be the patriots. The patriots just know they gon get away wit it.
"A team who straight up punched u in the face"
wimpy guys always love to use that term- it makes them feel tough when they are obviously anything but.
I agree with Stephen A on Minnesota. I thought the moment was to big for them.
After a long term legacy of failure from the Eagles, to see them beat the Patriots in a Superbowl would be the greatest victory for the entire organization
N0 Shrapnel lol yup!
I had the Eagles being 1 and done. Then they beat the Falcons and then doubled down and said they're getting destroyed by the #1 defense, and then they smack them like there's no tomorrow. While I knew the Jags had a good shot to win, I was in no way placing bets on them, they were against the odds. Eagles were miles ahead more impressive.
people blaming vikes for having a bad day, and not crediting eagles for making them have a bad day by tearing up their defense.
Eagles that dominate defense an shootout offense as falcons fan I respect them
The only way the Pats will lose is if their defense shits the bed
Ian which could possibly happen . I just think it might be to big for the eagles this year
+NaCobie Vaughns patriots defense can be bad but all the times patriots need them they make plays,like Butler interception or hightower Sack on Ryan
Only way pats lose is if Philly pays the refs more.
or if Fletcher cox snaps Brady in half and the birds blow out the pats 45 to 14
the Eagles offensive line will scare the shit out their defense
Brady will fall of a cliff 2022
kenny bob not soon enough. 2018 please.
kenny bob smh he’s finna retire when he wins his 6th smh
Black Boy Q nope. He wants 7 aka one more than the steelers and leave the patriots standing alone as the most successful franchise ever
he ain't gonna retire numb nuts. They kept him because he told the pats he would play 3 more years
I agree, and as long as he don't get a serious injury, I will say 5 or 6 years.
I think SAS just had 0 confidence in the Vikings vs his high confidence in the Jaguars
ROB thinking the same thing. He wasn't buying the Vikings to begin with.
S A S knows Philly very well ! Thanks for keeping the public in toon wit us for Years !! Me and my family and friends appreciate you when you let them know what’s up 215✌🏽
Agree with SAS, Jags gave Pats all they could handle while the Vikings folded like a lawn chair under the pressure of possibly playing the SB at home...
Lol, Stephen A.'s face be like, "man, the producers just told me to say New England to make it balanced."
Lying to yourself if you say Pats were more impressive than the Eagles. That's okay gonna be glad to see another NFC East QB defeat Brady and the Cheatriots.
You have a better chance of seeing God.
The Pats' wins over the Jags and Titans were so much more impressive than the Eagles beating the Falcons and Vikings. If Julio Jones could catch the ball late in the 4th quarter, the Eagles would have lost at home. The Vikings are not a road team, and their defense is not the same outside that dome.

The Eagles should thank the refs for carrying them to the NFC championship game. Julio Jones played like garbage in the 4th quarter of that divisional round game.

I'm a die hard Pats fan but the Eagles victory was impressive. The Pats victory was more unexpected based on the way the game was going for the first 3 quarters. I think the NFC championship was over by the first half. This does not mean that I believe the Eagles will win Super Bowl 52.

Gematria
'Because Brady's mom is from Minnesota' ... LOL
Soooo why did that idiot Max pick the Jags to beat the Pats if he believed everything he just ripped them on? He must just hate Brady and the Pats.
W C he does hate them
So does 95% of America. They have ruined the nfl.
I love how you Pats fans call out the "Patriot haters" while also calling Max an idiot. Best hypocrites in the history of sports fanbases.
Pluto, he is an idiot. I would not talk about the deficiencies of the Vikings to a degree that sounds like they are beneath the skill to compete with the Eagles, and then pick them to win. That is dumb, cause if I listened to myself, I would clearly pick the Eagles in that contest. If you pick against your own reasoning it is idiotic.
W C Because he’s talking about things that happened in the moment of the game. Everyone speculated what he brought up would happen but again it was all SPECULATION at the time
Anyone else getting tired of the patriots?
Yeah bro, i hear that. The best part of being fan are the highs and mostly lows of following a team...chasing the dream of a chip. I know most of you hate us eagle fans, we have done some stupid shit in the past to warrant that disgust, but its in the past. We need you all to back us for one game and help us dethrone the dynasty...send out those positive vibs (if u believe in that shig)pray to your god, burn a goat in our honor, do whatever you can to get behind us and lets give someone lse a chance in tbe afc to be winners. If the pats lose...i think the empire will start to crumble!! ((I was kidding about the goat thing...but it was a nice pun if i do say so))
The only boring thing is that its the same team, they put on really exciting Super Bowls and games in general
Yeah for sure, they have been caught cheating in almost half their super bowl appearances. Should have been suspended indefinitely along time ago.
I love first take can't have a morning without it!!!
Y’all forgetting Brady came back without his TOP 2 Receivers when he came back against the best defense in the league.
Blah the refs let Brady comeback
MattnCam0408 bruh just leave you know nothing about sports
Blah and Nick foles put up 38 against the vikes. We dont even have our mvp qb and yall still complaining about injuries lol.
They came back against the third best. The best defense beat the 2nd best on Sunday night and is heading to the Superbowl.
People don’t understand how disciplined the Pats are
They are top 2 in penalties done against them and top 2 in least penalties called against them
Eagles r jus as disciplined
VVG Viper you mean how cheatciplined
VVG Viper foh yeah by cheating..wake up the shit is fixed
ali bey That’s what ignorant people say because there team can’t win anything
5:54 stephen a and ryan clark is me every time max speaks
Stephen A Smith’s argument was weak. He’s saying that the patriots at home, being favorites, winning by a few points, is more impressive of a win than 3 point underdogs with a back up quarterback, missing Jason Peters, missing Hicks, missing sproles, missing CARSON WENTZ, absolutely demolishing a number one ranked defense......makes sense
It’s not really an argument. He was just saying the patriots impressed him more than the eagles did. Not taking away any credit from the Vikings but they should have lost last week lol. The fluke play at the end is what won them the game. They beat the saints off a missed tackle. I didnt expect the Vikings to do so well against the eagles tbh because of what I saw last week.
The Vikings also don’t have the number one defense. That belongs to the jaguars.
I don't understand how the Eagles were the underdogs. Number 1 seed, playing at home legitimately beat a good Falcons team to advance. Vikings, an average road team, with a history of choking in the playoffs. Blew a lead against the Saints and won off a freak play. Their luck ran out. Even looking at the regular season, Vikings had ONE impressive win the whole season, against the Falcons. They got two cupcake matchups with a Rodgersless Green Bay (Granted the first meeting he played for a TINY bit before getting injured, 4 passes). This Vikings team was pretty over rated. The Eagles had been pretty consistent all year. SO I don't really think The Eagles were more impressive.
A few days ago Max was saying Brady has the most to prove out of all 4 QBs. Brady did what he always does. Even when they were losing they still felt like the better team, and it was only a matter of time before the scoring started.
Can't say for sure who was more impressive, but people are REALLY overstating the Vikings.
Narayana Stewart look at the injuries he listed above that’s why they were underdogs
What About The Eagles Defense? they completely shut the Vikings down & even got a Pick 6
Eagles offense last night was textbook mastery. I don't care if either team wins. I'm not partial to either of them. I'm just saying from a removed impartial spectator observation of both games, the Eagles offense last night was something you see in epic sports films. It was damn magical.
Yeah, they give Vikings praise just to fit their narrative. Yet all I heard is how they didn't even deserve to be in the game to begin with. Whatever. 🙄
As an eagles fan watching foles last week I'm impressed I'm really hoping we can redeem ourselves from our Super Bowl lost against the patriots in 04
You got this birds they always doubt us
I'm a Pats fan but I have to disagree with Stephen Smith, Brady does what he always does, but NOBODY expected that outcome from the Eagles Vikings game, the Vikings barely won against the Saints but I thought they were going to be a problem for Philly and many didnt expect the Eagles to still be in it after losing Carson.
Hold this L Stephen A
Shane Walker Steven A. is just a coward. Plain and simple
Funny... week after week these guys talk out of their ass in order to sound " more right" about their argument and all continue to be wrong. Max should be working at Wal-Mart, not wasting a salary at ESPN.
The Vikings just showed up they didn't even play to win while the jags showed up and really gave it their all which to me was the best game of the 2 and to watch a 40 year old qb still doing what he was in early career now that my friend is really dam impressive!
Eagles look really good right now, that defense has been great all year long.
Let's talk about the BEST DEFENSE that was left in the playoffs that NO ONE gave full credit too - the Philadelphia Eagles. We're talking about a defense that gave up ZERO points to the reigning MVP in the second half for fucks sake?? I've been saying all year this Philly team is something special
Logan D I know. The eagles defense has been the absolute best defense of all the teams during the playoffs. They need to recognize.
A backup quarterback lighting up the best D in the league vs arguably the greatest qb of all time needing a comeback and some help from the zebras to beat the jags....decisions, decisions
well said max
max has been on fire he speaks the truth
Kellerman: Brady has the most to prove out of all remaining QBs, facing a once in a decade caliber defense.
Kellerman: Unimpressed Brady came back against a defense that got shredded several times in the prior weeks.
Die hard eagles fan here. We want and need this super bowl win. This city and team deserves it. My only concern is that our franchise qb Carson Wentz will have to live up to the success and win his own ring, hopefully that doesn’t put too much pressure on him
Can't stand Max Kellerman.
V Phan better than Skip Brainless though
Aiden Helie right skip was the ultimate hater
Better than Skip who just hates & lies when he gets it wrong
Aiden Helie he ain’t much better than skip! They both terrible
Why do they always argue w so much passion. Shit is compelling.
As a Pats fan...the eagles surprised me, not the pats. I was actually surprised by how bad the defensive play calling was by us lol Matt Patrica made some bonehead calls
eagles had a more impressive win they won without the refs on their side
Brady Thompson terd
Hater
realist*
Realist indeed
How many times have the Pats/TB faced a number one defense and how many times has that defense ended up on the losing end?
To all Broncos fans at least we r the only team to hang on to a lead against the patriots in the playoffs in the past 3 years
Before Julian Edelman got hurt New England was the clear cut favorite .
U expected that from brady he goes to the super bowl every other year on average
We get it Max. You don't like the Pats
Sometimes it's obvious they have differing opinions because their producers make them. How could you even try to compare these two performances? C'mon Steve
I only see the AFC Championship game as this. Jaguars had 4 scoring drives; Patriots had 4 scoring drives. It's the little extra that gets the win, and it shows who can get done.
Normally agree with Stephen A but can’t here. As a pats fan i have to agree Philadelphia was way more impressive
Eagles scored 38 against the second best defense. Pats are 4 best defense. Pats scored 24 against best defense. Eagles are third.
I say eagles win 45-34
Malik Mandingo what?
Malik Mandingo um that is really random ok. I stated facts and an opinion.
Ian For prez well I'm just stating facts bitch boy.
Malik Mandingo bitch boy? I thought your an idiot before now your calling me two opposites? Hold this L.
Thank you Max! Put some Respek on Phillys name
And max destroys SAS again honestly SAS needs to just stop
Come on Stephen, don’t you think the Eagles were the reason the Vikings looked so bad.
Eagles were definitely impressive, Tom brady just does what he always does
THAT IS MAX KELLERMANS TOP 3 DEBATES EVER HE MURDERED STEPHEN A's OPINION
Max's blank face stare is hilarious 😂
Eagles lets goooo
-from steelers fan
Philly in the House. We are way to Hungry than New England.
Fletcher Cox will destroy Brady !
Believe it !!!!
Max and Ryan Clark just shredded Stephen Gay like chop liver🤣😂😅🤣😂😅
This will be a tough game for both teams. This game will essentially be system vs system. Philly has the better defense than New England, but New England has the better offense during this game. So I guess you could say that their strength and weaknesses will be going against each other. However if there is one thing Coach Pederson needs to do this game, and that is shake it up. Bill is one of the best coachs ever when it comes to making adjustments. So rush four in the first half then tell Schwartz to start bringing extra rushers after a quarter or half. Don't force Nick to eat up the Patriots secondary, then go quiet like Bortles. Start pounding the rock once you succeed at passing. This will be a chess match with what will be against what I think are the two greatest chess players this season.
RC looked wild with this hairstyle 😂
I've followed Vikings defense for years and I can say without a doubt that was not the same defense in the Eagles game, they choked, the pass rush was not there, and in the back field Smith was the only one making an effort, it was a easy win for Eagles
Pat nation for life!!!
Omg max is the voice of reason
Really Steven A. 🤦🏾♂️ you finally upset me
Jaguars should’ve had 27 with Jack’s strip fumble but the ref’s knew what they were doing by blowing the whistle to stop the Jags from scoring
Eagles > Patriots ?
?
?
?
Max is completely right believe it or not, phili is on fire no doubt, no way new England is comparable with Eagles. They r really Eagle. Steven A, u might need to pick up a ticket n whatch this Eagles, they r football made Easy, this team has change everything u can think about football. Fun to watch n very decisive, already know what it take to get job done. Listen do u look at this Eagle team as team that would see a tough team n start sweating? The answer is no. So the Eagle is the best now in the game of NFL game
*Vikings before both playoff games
“Fuck yeah! We get to play at home in the Super Bowl!!!”
*Patriots comeback against the Jags and Brady adds another 4th quarter comeback to his playoff resume
“Yeah fuck the ‘first team to make the Super Bowl at Home’ title. Eagles good luck playing Angry Brady. We’ll wait till he retires.”
OMG - the Patriots almost lost to the Jaguars and you are more impressed with the Patriots!
Kelly Arbaugh LOL
I say the Pats, because they played the better defense and made big plays
Obvious. Not done YET. GO BIRDS!!!!!
This is why i believe they disagree just so they can have a debate because in no way was the Patroits more impressive than what Philly did. We all know what Brady and Co. does every year. Philly had a big question mark going into this game and they completely dominated!
D Mathis that my friend is called an opinion, and that is why they debate. What you think is right the next person doesn't have to think that way.
novadragon12 It's called entertainment. Skip do the same stuff on FS1.
D Mathis well how you think your way of thinking is always right and everyone else should think that way is called arrogant~
novadragon12 God Bless
The Eagles are missing their starting Superstar quarterback, their future HOF/1st-2nd Best LT in the league, their star MLB signal Caller, and still obliterated the first ranked defense in the League while holding their offense to 7 points. How is this even a discussion😑
Brady only had that opportunity because the Pats defense gave him the ball, and the Jags thought they had it in the bag and started playing not to lose.
Think of the question this way, did the Vikings play remotely close to where they should have? Did the Jaguars play very well and to an impressive level for 3 quarters? The answers to these questions help determine who was more impressive. New England was more impressive because they suffered an injury to Gronk, Bortles played out of his mind, and New England still won. The Vikings played one of their worst games of the seasons and had the same group that they have been ridin' with for the last 10 games, and didnt show up. New England was more impressive.
0:15 - Eagles didn't give up "over 30 points to the new York Giants", bro.
Tom Brady was on 🔥.. He more than did his part to make that came very winnable.. Patriots really need to Focus on the defensive side .. and focus on it Big time.....
Nick Foles is way better than Tom Brady. Because if you don't acknowledge that then you're crazy. Because that's my opinion.
6:08 don’t give me that shit Max, he literally played like five more quarters than Wentz did. Keemun didn’t start week one and i forget the other week Bradford started. Thus he only played 14 games and Wentz played 12 and 3/4...
Vikings went up 7-0, then Nick said “Doug, hold my beer...”
How Max makes a living like this is beyond me
Jason Pham yeah....even though everything he said here were facts.
