Drew Brees is one of the best quarterbacks in the business and New Orleans has the so-called home field advantage at the Superdome but every football field looks the same to the players. 100 yards by 53 1/3 yards. For the really technical, the diameter of the pipe for the goal posts is 6 5/8″. If it was a little smaller Cody Parkey’s kick might have gone thru instead of doinking back. 

The Eagles are favored to lose by as many as 9 1/2 points to New Orleans next week. If the game goes as predicted the Saints will be in the Super Bowl. Chicago was a 6.5-point favorite in the latest Eagles vs. Bears odds, with the total at 41.5. The final score was Eagles 16 – Bears 15 for a total of 31 points. That’s 25% under the score predicted by the pundits.  The Bears were favored by 6.5 points but they lost by one point. That’s 555% wrong.  

Drew Brees is 6 feet high and weighs 209 pounds. Nick Foles is 6 foot 6 inches tall and weighs 248 pounds. Bear quarterback Mitch Trubisky is 6 feet 2 inches tall, weighs 222 pounds and was easily handled and sacked etc. by the Eagles. The Eagles will find Drew Brees even easier to handle since he’s such a small quarterback. It’s a known fact that smaller quarterbacks are easier to sack than bigger ones. There’s just no way the Eagles are going to lose to the Saints. Foles will come through once again for Philadelphia and get the Eagles into the Super Bowl once again…. After the Super Bowl, here comes Carson Wentz.
