Yep. First two games, the strategy worked ok. My guess is that they tried something similar on Wentz but: - He gets rid of the ball quicker. -...
Ah, Leveon Bell's musical inspiration I see.
The lack of a credible run game against Philadelphia was huge. They need to balance it up, to be sure.
I know, right? You would have thought someone would have mentioned it around here.
Fans spend years moaning that we don't start rookies, then moan they look like rookies when we do :shrug:
And yet, whenever we lose I kind of instinctively think "hope Ray's mailbox is ok..." I think it captures what a lot of us want to do in those...
He deserves it. That wasn't a Tebow game where a slip or two let him win. It was a masterful performance that took advantage of all our...
Nobody seemed to be getting open. Sometimes a little more time from the oline would have helped. Sometimes Ben was off. Sometimes they just needed...
Meh, it will be fine.
The way to defend screens is balancing playing disciplined with sniffing out the play early. Not a surprise it works against a young secondary. It...
Awesome news about your kid - hope it all goes well. Having kids had chilled me out about losing. Well, I Have far less time to be annoyed lol.

I'm as annoyed as the next person, but let's get some perspective. Wheaton was rusty and played bad... So where was Coates? Breaking open on every...
Yep. Someone said in the game day thread that championship teams don't lose these games. Pretty sure we looked ropey in 05 a few times though...
This. The manner of the defeat was shocking, but seems to have shocked some people here into mutating into Real Steel.
He captures how a lot of us will be feeling. Although by the same token, he didn't say anything I didn't know...
Well, we have to say Wentz, surely. What we need to get Ben back on track is a better use of the running game.
Yeah, the Eagles were on fire in terms of execution and motivation. Let's not take that away from them. Like I said in the game thread, Wentz is...
After this game, the coaches have enough motivational material for the next decade. So I guess they're winners in a way.
