One last thing tonight….I really don’t like playing fantasy football. Strange to you all probably, but I don’t like cheering for guys playing against the Eagles. It’s just wrong! And I think its BS that when a guy gets ruled out an hour before his game, that the computer is not able to replace him with the next best projected player. I have a life. I don't pay attention to every game every week. I have Bowers for the Raiders. He didn’t play last week and he is one of my starters. I lost by 2 points. Thats just stupid. My lowest point other player had 13 points. I’m 1-3-1 and have lost all 3 by a total of 5 points. And how do you TIE in fantasy? Make a tiebreaker. Cant be hard. First time i ever drafted my own team and yahoo said i had the best draft of everyone. BS! My team and manager suck! 😱

Kellen Moore beat the Gmen with Spencer freakin’ Rattler as his QB

Weird observation: this team seems to run more comebacks than any other team in the league. Does Hurts like stationary targets more than guys crossing, etc? His deep out passing has never been great….unless the receiver is wide open.

This team runs no screens. Why not? Well, I guess they run those stupid, ineffective WR screens.

Why don’t they feature Barkley on choice routes? I remember Westbrook OWNING defenders on choice routes. Get Barkley in space!

How is this not on the OC? His playcalling is pathetic. Every run is under center and up the middle…several where Barkley gets drilled by three defenders 3 yards in the backfield. COACH, see what defenders are doing and ADJUST! It is NOT rocket science! Every pass is in shotgun. Defense could probably call the play at the line of scrimmage when the Eagles line up. Pathetic! Professional football for heck sake.

The more I watch the Eagles offense, I can call the play before the ball is snapped. My son asked me if I had a direct line with the OC during the first half. So bad. Get the QB under center and play football that makes the defense play honestly….please! Hurts can do it , right? Or am i missing something?

Sounds like this is where we are at and gotten to….Hurts got to be the guy to draw up our gameplans and O.

Last three games: Hurts

1H: 54-for-70, 466 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTs, 25 passing 1D, 108.4 rating, 48 points.

2H: 20-for-34, 261 yards, 1 TD, 1 INTs, 9 passing 1D, 80.6 rating, 14 points.

I don’t know why so many comebacks, but they won’t be consistently successful unless Hurts starts throwing the ball sooner so that the ball arrives immediately as the receiver makes his comeback turn. That way the cornerback won’t have time to make his drive back to the catch point to attempt a PBU.

Regarding screens the largest part of the problem with traditional screens for this team is that the O-Line has historically been so good that the opposing D-Line is used to getting pummeled every play, so when the Eagles O-Lineman gives him the kind of free pass that is customary in a screen pass, it is a clear "tell” that the play is a screen, and the D-Lineman reacts accordingly rerouting his rush to disrupt the screen catch point.

With the struggles of the OLine so far…..Toth….maybe a good time to draw some screens up? Thoughts?

What coach can’t utilize AJ?

Looks like a great call to AJ here.... the QB is taking some heat here locally.

I understand we have guys missing and the next guy up is not quite as good as the guy he replaced. I also understand you can have a bad game now and then. Still you can't totally implode like this from being SB champs with basically the same players. I'm SMH. Just watching the lack of tackling(there is zero excuse for this) just makes me want to toss my lunch. We went from hoisting the Lombardi to executing like a group pf Pee Wees. Just horrible. I watched play after play where mediocre guys ran through us like Swiss cheese. I told you earlier the luck would run out. On to Minnesota, then back home for Gnats 2.0 and if we lose that at home heads will roll because Lurie doesn't like to be embarrassed in his own stadium

No coach can utilize Saquon when our OL is looking like his Giants OL back in the day…. Saquon is getting no hit in the backfield 50% of the time and only gets worse in the RZ

Wake up if you some how still try to convince yourself Siri hasn’t been running our O most all these years.

Can’t be a complete moron of an O mind then if his offense has worked some years.

It was Siri O in 2021-22 only difference was Steichen calling the play

Last year the offense was the same as 21-22 and 23 only difference was Moore calling the plays

And guess what the offense is the same again this year only difference is the play caller.

Again knowing offense and being a good play caller are not the same things

Acho broke it down into "the most predictable thing you’ll ever see,” noting Philadelphia runs the ball on two downs (first and second), from one distance (-and-10), and out of two formations (3x1 and pistol).

I can’t disagree about The timing routes needing to get worked out. Just practice practice practice. Shouldn’t really need a coach even for that…so Hurts should be able to overcome that obstacle. Thing is…Siri never incorporated timing routes pretty much at all. Unstoppable O no matter how good the coverage is. Pass rush negating also. But it’s really pretty much all new and being figured out…very sadly.

Gotta correct your huge error on Hurts. He practically made a living on deep balls outside. Last season Siri dialed all that stuff back. Super overcorrection by Siri because in 2023 the buy extra time so AJ and Smitty could get open deep was the entire passing playbook.

I’m really struggling to understand why this offense is soooo bad this season so far. They are bad! This team could EASILY be 2-4. Is it JUST two new guards? No way! The run game to me is the most obvious struggle. It looks like they only run one or two run plays and the way they line up TELLS the defense beforehand which run it is! So change up the looks PRE-SNAP! Do not wait until the bye to install it either! This alone will help. Right now it is too easy for defenders. Make it harder for defenses to diagnose plays AND run some screens to help the guards a little.

Seems like you understand so very perfectly what’s wrong with this O.

The only conclusions to draw that actually make sense. But you’ve blamed Hurts for all these years already…why stop now.

Last season and others we really had that identity of our massive athletic Oline will wear down any opponent. First quarter worst scoring team in the league. Second half took advantage. We don’t possess this advantage this season. Maybe at the end we will put it together.

Gotta get Shipley involved with these and other contributions. Replying to Cook post about Barkley…he doesn’t have great hands. Doesn’t run much of any routes. But if you get the ball in that guys hands at his best? Watch out!!

So why don’t you share these thoughts and discuss whatever these thoughts are.

My opinion is I hated to see the Siri influence last season on Hurts pretty much our HC teaching to be gunshy practically to our franchise QB

You can’t coach don’t throw interceptions. That’s not coaching. Coaching and scheme is teaching where to go with the ball as the right decisions.
