Not sure if Elam was on AJ Brown all night, but sounds like there was help there, which one might expect against Brown. https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/breaking-news/article/aj-brown-on-getting-only-1-target-against-cowboys-thats-not-something-i-can-control-131911838.html And this: “They did a good job of matching some of our routes,” Nick Sirianni said. “They did a good job of matching some things and taking away A.J. We had some different things to him that Jalen had to get through some progressions, and I think Jalen did a really nice job getting through his progressions tonight and then made some plays with his legs as well." https://www.nbcsportsphiladelphia.com/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/aj-brown-vs-cowboys-jalen-hurts-devonta-smith-jahan-dotson/682622/?amp=1

I know we are a bit banged up at corner, but will this be the first time that we face these guys with a fully healthy front 7, including Bernard, Milano, and Taron?

I would love to know the cowboys’ defensive strategy. The corners were playing way off, yet their receivers were pretty non-existent. That doesn’t make a lot of sense. Hurts didn’t even try to throw it to the receivers, opting instead for 3-yard dump offs and easy scrambles.

i posted this in the US Open thread, but that Pegula loss just felt like a bad Bills playoff loss.

How do they not have a spy all game? Thats just embarrassing.

Tough catch, but that’s why they pay you the big bucks.

I am rooting hard now for Osaka. Would love to see her advance and then knock off the Beast.

The eagles don’t get cute with their draft picks. They pick the obvious guy almost every time. Shockingly, it works!!

I don’t think he is the one putting stress on anyone. It’s everyone else. He has two number 1 receivers, a top 5 TE, and the best RB in the league out there with him, behind probably the best line in the league. And all he does with that is throw 5-yard passes and scrambles? I think you put a guy like Tua on this team, and looks exactly the same.

This felt like a bad Bills loss. She really had it. Had a ton of break chances in that third set, and couldn’t convert. Feel awful for her.

have they even considered using a spy?

Hurts is so mid. Imagine any other QB with AJ Brown and D Smith out there. He has two number 1 receivers, and basically throws 3-yard passes and scrambles?

agree— don’t even get me started about Christmas! How annoying is that?!

I wouldn’t regret that at all. Puka is one of those guys that can explode and win you a playoff game single-handedly.

just absurd. In the same vein, I hate these Thursday (and now Friday!) games, plus the double header MNF games. The oversaturation dilutes the value of the product.

Agree. He is trying to build him up! Love what he is trying to do, but my expectations are going to be pretty low.

Wow. Weird. I thought historically they play the US Open final at 4:30 pm, and then have no 4 PM NFL games.

Outstanding! Now we can play ball!

I think it’s just nerves over the opponent. Baltimore just seems to have given us serious matchup problems the last few times we played them. Even that playoff win— we had to basically play keep away to keep our D off the field, and then barely won.

It is the year of the groin!!

How do you watch it as a stand alone service, and can you DVR the games? I subscribe to YouTube TV, and am wondering if I should cancel, and go the standalone route.

Ugh, Hussey is the ref? That dude seems like he is always looking to fight people.

ravens fans should be familiar with really weird division opponent games. Odd games like that one happen all the time against division foes. I mean, didn’t jameis winston and the Browns shred the Ravens last year?

agreed. I am all for a few tricks here and there, but the last guy I would have got involved in a trick play was Curtis Samuel of all people!

Why are tennis players such babies? Djokovich crying to the ump because the crowd is booing him!
