No_Matter_What

Fun fact (correct me if I am wrong) - we just won a one score game!

I think its becoming quite obvious that we will never be in full health this season (not counting Hyde). It is just not meant to be unfortunately. If we will be able to overcome it remains to be seen. I am still very optimistic.

I think you guys are too harsh on secondary. Last two games they were in good positions more often than not but opposing WRs are making insane catches (after insane throws of both Cousins and Brissett under presure). I am not saying they were playing great but it is not that bad as people are making it. JMO of course.

Morse being out would suck a lot. He didn't play in Miami and we missed him big time. All things being equal, just put him in and take Van Roten out and we win for sure.

Is it me or Romo doesn't know that player is down if his elbow touches ground?

Well good thing it's not playoff time yet. Last year this time we were playing bad too.

Browns are really good at screen game.

Hmm Rhodes was on the field on Chubb run.

Just for the record my guess is that Browns will not score more than 7 points from now on and we score 30+

Agreed it is incredible. It's like half of the board are 15y old.

Amazing throw under pressure and catch. People will start freaking out now as usual, but defense will get it together also as usual. Couple of missed tackles, otherwise it was fine.

Oliver seems finally healthy last 2-3 games.

Edmunds doesn't miss this tackle.

Kirby are you sure about last year? Last year our 10th game was a disaster vs Indy. Next week we won vs Saints who had half of the team injured and no QB. Week later we lost to NE while they passed 3 times whole game and we for sure didn't look like best team in football. We were losing 24-3 at halftime vs Tampa until we finally started to look like one of the best teams in football in the second half. And even after that, we had bad to mediocre games vs Panthers, Falcons (Allen 11/26 for 120y and 3 picks) and Jets. Actually, I'd say that last regular season was below expectation quite a lot, but everything was forgotten after superb performances in playoffs (even though it wasn't enough).

Yeah this is exactly what Josh needs to keep in mind!

Why do you ask such unnecessary questions? Just cut them both, and many others too, there have to be some better players somewhere on the streets for sure.

Wawrow was right afterall! Illness you say? Nah! Settle, Phillips, Milano, Gilliam and Lewis are starting a riot! More to come!

They could lose any game, but most likely they will win most of them, even though in close fashion - that is what they are good at. I expect them to end up 14-3 or 13-4. If it's the latter, we might have a shot, but the margin for error is really small now.

Can you post a link? Last time I tried I didn't find any relevant Eagles board.

Out of curiosity, can you please name skill players you consider "all world" and were drafted last 5 years? I would really like to know how many players do you mean and who they are. Genuine question.

Lol what. I guess you'd like to take this one back, just as McKenzie.

Agree with this. People talk about OL all the time but there were simply no players available. Almost no FAs who would be an upgrade. And we did scout a lot of OL, but we just weren't at the spots to draft them. Granted, they may have misjudged some players and probably made mistakes when drafting, but it's not like Beane didn't want to draft OL. But he just didn't want to force it. I think I had a discussion with @GunnerBill about this and he came up with a name or two who we could've reasonably had. But it doesn't mean they were willing to come here. And it's not like rounds 2-3 were filled with top end OL talent.

Oh and this was brutal. I can see McKenzie in doghouse next game. This was hard to watch and it surely won't get unnoticed.

I am also waiting for All-22 but I would slightly expand your points in this thread regardless. I think fans in general (i) love to blame "playcalling" whenever execution sucks and (ii) are extremely results oriented. As @Rock-A-Bye Beasley already posted, going for it vs FG was extremely close decision from analytics point of view, yet people will claim that it was beyond stupid. It was probably slightly wrong based on math and even more so based on what was happening of the field, but nothing significant either way. As for the calls in general - if we run and it fails, people say we should've pass. If we pass, we should've run. If we try sneak and it fails, it should've been shotgun. If we line up in shotgun, it should've been under center and sneak, or run. When we try 3 passes in the RZ in row, people are saying how stupid it was to pass. If we run Singletary on that 2nd down, the very same people (not everybody ofc, nobody needs to take this personal) would be screaming how that was just a wasted down and why didn't we let Josh throw it 3 times. If we do some jet sweep to McKenzie and it works - what a brilliant call. If it fails due to some great individual defensive effort - why is OC getting cute. And so on. Honorable mention to @GunnerBill, who is the only one I noticed, who once a while says that he didn't like a call even if it worked (and vice versa). When Josh hit Gabe Davis from his own EZ on 3&10 with 45y bomb on 98y TD vs Steelers I don't remember anybody on this board complaining why did they try such a dangerous low-percentage play on 3&10 on our own 2 yards. Because it worked. When something doesn't, "playcalling sucks". And same with any coaching decisions. I am not saying coaches are perfect and playcalling is always great. I am just saying that people are way too results oriented and inconsistent in this. Not to mention that most fans (including me, but that's why I don't offer strong opinions on calls) really have no clue what calls/assignments actually were.

Something like this makes A LOT of sense. Just two notes. I do agree that in order to have good team chemistry a GM should think twice if they plan to pay an "outsider", but if any defensive player is wondering why specifically Miller got paid then I don't know what to tell him. On the other hand, there is something weird going on with Tre, that's for sure. I am not blaming him for anything, I have no idea what is going on, but the whole situation just feels off. And exactly like you say. Winning solve everthing, and losing does the exact opposite.
