We are facing another VERY good run defense this week.

[Saca312]

Eagles are weirdly awful against screens. They go after the QB, so they never look for the screen.

McCaffrey could still feast.

Lions did an extremely good job tackling Stew.  Grab an ankle and hold on.  We'll see if the Eagles can do the same, which I doubt.

The Eagles, like us, are a strange team, good, but only because the rest of the league is looking kinda bad right now.

Will be a fun game.

Huh?

 

booooooooo

If Fletcher Cox is out, that is huuuuuge

[Joe the Show]

They have defended the run well so far, but this early in the season the sample size is very small.  We might be able to find something that other teams couldn't and have a decent rushing night.  I mean, Rivera is our coach so you know we're gonna try.  They may not be a top run defense after Thursday.

How??? The league looks good to most unless your team isn't winning, only difference this year is NFC is winning more games that doesn't mean the league looks bad. It's just people are use to Patriots winning many expected Oakland and Dallas to be powerhouse teams haaa a lot of others said NYG would be a force haaaa and Jets were suppose to be ass but their ok so far is that what the league looks bad means?

it looks like you need some periods

See how dumb it looks correcting others.

[Jangler]

if boxing up the run opens up the pass, I'm really not seeing a problem. 

or visa versa.

we can do both so, it's becoming pick your poison.

The league doesn't look that good right now, outside of a few teams.

Bad teams right now:

Bears, Chargers, Giants, Saints, Indy, Jets, Browns, Ravens, Dolphins, 9ers, Cardinals, etc...

Then there are the teams that should be good, but aren't performing right now:

Titans, Steelers, Raiders, Patriots, Cowboys, Seahawks, etc.

There are what look to be a few pretty good/playing well teams, and we and Philly are two of them.

It's not a knock on our team, or theirs, I'm just pointing out that the NFL seems to be having an off year, and we are capitalizing.  Only 2 weeks ago we were talking about wanting our coaching staff fired.

And there year is more about the other team screwing up. There as good as Detroit for sure. Probably not as good as ATL or the Pats though.

Here’s to hoping that teams have to start respecting Funchess (and maybe Dickson) then

[PandaPancake]

Did we ever figure out what a Lane is?

He's playing unless he re injures it this week...a full participant today.

It's a good thing their secondary is hot garbage and our QB looks like the MVP again.

You are getting us at a good time.   If we meet in the playoffs we could have two totally different starting DBs in Darby and Sidney Jones.
