January 15, 20251 yr Author And Dean’s injury means an opportunity for veteran Oren Burks to take over as the starting linebacker next to Zack Baun for the duration of the Eagles’ playoff run. "I’m ready. I’m ready,” Burks said on Sunday evening. "The whole year just waiting for an opportunity. They’ve been playing really well, Nakobe and Zack. I’ve been really proud of the room. Everybody, even (Jeremiah) Trotter, when we got in that last game, he shows up and makes plays. Just the mentality we have in the room, it’s just next-man-up mentality.”

That’s been my issue with the short sighted one step thinking approach. As you said,injuries play a part,that's why you plan week to week. There is no way to predict in week 1 who will be available in week 16,so any plans made that far into the future are efforts in futility. Every team says " 1 game at a time" except Ham of course. He is all alone in left field

Please state the difference between winning and not losing(this should be good) For me... playing not to lose would be punting instead of going for it on 4th down. Running 3 times vs a stacked box instead of passing for the first down. At the end of the half,you just kneel the ball when there is about 25 or 30 seconds left when you could attempt a pass first to see what happens.. Those things to me are playing not to lose. Siri is exactly the opposite, we complained about it...very legitimately IMO...vs ATL, New Orleans and Jacksonville. As Baun told Dean when he was mic'd up... " he trusts us, he did that cause he trusts us"

Goal is to have your team the most prepared possible at the end.
January 16, 20251 yr How is AJ Brown’s injury being managed at that? He didn’t look great against the Pack. He’s getting rest days at practice….meaning it’s better for him to not be on it.

Wow....way to go out on a limb with a potential loss coming to the #1 seed! I call that it will be colder tomorrow than on July 16th . " I'm worried that we might lose to the best competition in our conference" see I called it. Lol No kidding we might lose... that's sports. No kidding the chances of losing are greater when you play a better team than the week before. Man you can't enjoy anything in life? Nothing happened recently to put this into perspective for you? Your team has a good chance of winning, but nothing is ever guaranteed in life. Detroit has not faced any team that can control the line of scrimmage like us. They beat Green Bay twice...so did we. They beat Houston, we won at Baltimore. They lost to Buffalo. They poured on the score to bad teams, we run the clock out. You act like we are playing the 1989 SF team?
January 16, 20251 yr And bye the way... " the great O mind" watch what happens when he doesn't have the players like he has now in Detroit. Stop worshipping all these guys like they are rocket scientists... it's football, the players matter.
