Serpico. The head chef was a Momofuku alum who was lured down to Philly. It was relatively unpretentious, a small 30 seater with an open kitchen you could sit at a bar at. The things that remain seared in my memory is a pasta dish that was homemade pasta, basil, sausage, pecorino and chicken skin and a smoked duck leg sausage. Sadly, seating guidelines killed the business model and the chef got circulated through the restaurant group before leaving.

I'm not the biggest Barclay fan. It's not a bad steak, but for the price tag you can find something better in Passyunk. Sadly, the pandemic wiped out my favorite place.

pork is probably easier and cheaper. Pork with provolone and broccoli rabe is a classic in the city.

Look, I don't know if he is any worse than Dodson, Klein or Spector at this point. Take a sniff, it can't hurt. ok not that much. Let's let him clear waivers

Back when the season began I was banging the table for a 12 personnel base. From what has been Brady's historic trends though, it's been more 11, 01 or empty set. What I think is a potential use for 12 is more that Kincaid has been blossoming into role where he can be a capable effective slot receiver in 11 while still being able to block. I think that an OC with any creative juices can think of ways to roll out 12 personnel, but then have them line up with Kincaid standing in the slot like a WR. Or have him lined up as a HB and then sent where Josh sees a mismatch as an audible. Or blocking for Cook as a FB while Knox mans the traditional TE blocking role. The issue is Dorsey to by knowledge was doing none of that.

I'm imagining a lot of 2 deep safety. Without Goedhurt they are missing a big piece of their middle of the field attack.

In terms of offense, I think our scheme should look a lot like it did vs the Jets: a commitment to the run game, but with plenty of motion to put the D-line on its heels and attack the middle. An important thing to note from last night's game is: Kansas was getting their shots. Balls were hitting hands. Usually (against us) those are surehanded catches. So it's not as if KC didn't know how the beat the scheme, it just was let down by its WRs

I actually agree with you on this. 12 personnel does not exclusively mean lining up a TE on each side. You can start in wishbone, then put Kincaid in motion into the slot to diagnose the defense. You can overload them for a sweep/put one in a jet motion and have the option of jet handoff or is a blocker for Cook. It isn't that hard to think of, which is why it was so frustrating that Dorsey wasn't doing it.

hey guys, do you remember when Gabe Davis shoved Josh from behind and it worked 95% of the time?

With the bye coming up in two weeks, and the KC I would rather Knox take one more week. Don't get me wrong, I want him back. I want to see what an actual creative OC can do with 2 TE who you can motion and put into different alignments either than one on each side. Seriously.

That is an insane roughing call

Oh look, attempting to throw a WR at the line of scrimmage during a blitz. Are we sure Dorsey didn't go to Philly?

Sauce mugs people. It's mind boggling how he gets away with it

Right now my gameplan against both these teams is to run at them

What? I heard that only happens to Josh Allen

I think we have to dedicate to the run against the Eagles like we did the Jets. They cannot stop Helare

It's like Eagles decided to do all the things that drove us all nuts

I literally came on here to post that

They've dialed that back a lot this year. Hurts has taken some hits and his knee brace just came off

Just as a note, calling the sandwich a Philly Cheese steak annoys locals like when we hear Buffalo Wings. So call them Philly cheese steaks!

I feel like this isn't getting enough press. The knock I hear from national media is "they're putting it all on Josh". I think maybe LeSean McCoy his first years with us is my last point of comparison. I do worry about the fumbleitis, but honestly the man is a lot of fun to watch play. It was just so infuriating to watch that shotgun QB draw, knowing that Cook can do with a head of steam and his vision. And now Brady is using a few Shannahan RB concepts? The Bills have needs on offense pending, but the Torrance, Cook and Kincaid pickups are looking like excellent pieces for the future.

who was the other one? Mac Jones?

"My legs, my legs..." "Oh Jesus, he kneecapped you?" "No~"

On a more serious note, the only reason I can conceive that Rasul Douglass has not been starting is familiarity. I know PFF is not the end all be all, but his track record has been better than Dane Jacksons, never mind the the splash plays from last night.

Unless you all expect three players to clear concussion protocol in a week, I think you better warm to the idea of Douglas as a starter.
