Your most nerve-wracking moment as an Eagles fan?

[Rome]

Since I posted a photo of my worst moment as an Eagles fan, I might as well post a photo of the best too:




Gotta get back this year, boys and girls.  Just gotta...

I also recall the Damon Moore-Bobby Taylor-Ron Dixon play vividly.

Im glad im not the only one who remembers Taylor in there.   

Bobby did what he usually did when it came to tackling...he just got in the way.

He took a great angle and forced Dixon to slow it up and look for a cutback and when he had to slo it up a bit that is when Moore got his ass.

Most nerve wracking moment?  Let's see, hhmmmm......from Week 1 through Week 16 every year since 1972 and the playoffs in 1978,79, 80, 81, 88, 89, 90, 92, 94, 95, 99, 2000, 01, 02 , 03, 04.  Other than that I'm quite relaxed.

I'd have to say the Chicago Fog Bowl in 1988, I loved those Buddy Ryan years.  And it was so painful not being able to watch what was going on and having to listen to the TV commentators try to describe the action.

That game should have been rescheduled....

I think we should petition the American Medical Association and request of a newcategory for cause of death...

The Hook and ladder by the Giants when Troy stopped ? at the 4 yard line. 

Damon Moore stopped Ron Dixon at the 6

This one was my first thought as well...

This one was crazy.  Doubt I'll ever forget it.

I was actually listening on the internet on NFL.com, I believe (back when it was free) and I was feeling pretty good because the Giants had to go 80 yards(?) in 7 seconds.  Anyway... when Tiki pitched the ball to Dixon, Quick says, "Uh-oh." and I drop to my knees because I have no idea if anyone is anywhere near him while he's streaking down the field.  Merrill's counting down the yardage and I just scream, "GET HIIIIIIIIIIIIM!!!" at the top of my lungs.  When they said that Dixon finally got tackled at the 4 yard line, I collapsed onto the floor flat on my back and tried to catch whatever breath I could.  Then Merrill says exactly what I was feeling... something like, "They'll take your breath away, but they're the NFC East Champs."



Unbelievable.

I remember that. Wasn't pretty if you were watching either. Probably alot worse because the camera just shows you the runner and not what's ahead of him. As soon as it was pitched, it was a foot race....I remember going from a smile and gradually feeling the soul sucked out of me...with only an empty relief at the end.(sounds alot like when I pleasure myself to kiddie porn). Anyways, go Eagles!

For those of you not at work the NFL network is running an hour long show on the Vet and Eagles fans starting at noon.

ummm... the final failed attempted drive in the Super Bowl against the Pats.  Not sure what else could beat that. 

same here, nothing worse then screaming obsenities at MCNabb to HURRY THE FARG UP!

I doubt I was the only one, I just have the balls to admit it. For the Tampa game I was damn near blacked out drunk so that doesn't really count.

Well, I didn't cry...but I was devastated.  That was brutal for me.  And I remember the whole thing so vividly.  At that point, I was sitting on my heels about two feet in front of my TV, primed to jump up in celebration...and then it fell apart.  Took me hours and hours to fall asleep.  Terrible.

That Bucs game didn't devastate me as much as the Rams game. I actually felt we had a chance against the Rams, but with the Bucs we were still 10 points behind with little time left. I just didn't get the feeling we'd win that game after the way we were playing. The Bucs game still hurt a lot though, but it wasn't the interception that ripped me up, it was the game as a whole, and the lost expectations.

But against the Rams we only needed 1 score to win us that game. I thought we'd pull it out. That interception ripped me up. The Panthers game was just anger. I wasn't devastated after that game, it was just pure anger at the receiving corps.

Good one Bunk.  I really thought we were going to pull that one off.  There was some bad play calling on that drive.  Draw to Staley that didn't fool anyone and I think DMac threw two passes  Freddies way the last being the interception.  What really pissed me off was that icehole Anus Williams manhandling Freddie on that fourth down play.  My god when they showed the replay he had his claws all over Freddie about 5 seconds before the ball got there.   I was more pissed that the clowns from FOX didn't say a word about it.
