We have key guys out again? They have enough of a running game to be concerned. It's not like Dullaz had problems with us. Johnson went to IR, he was their banger. Kmet going to be an issue also

blankenship will play, which is good. unfortunately, brown will be next to him at the other safety position.

We were talking about regulation time. YOU bought up OT. Now LOSE OT and answer WHY teams defer in regulation

Talking about the advantage if having the ball on O instead of being on D. Very simple basic football coin flip happens on every level.

I don't care about coin flips,how many teams won BECAUSE of their coin flip choice?? Find me that percentage,not who won the toss

So many…they had to change the rules

We all know teams want the ball FIRST in OT which is not what we were talking about until you moved the goal posts

It’s actually debatable now…I’d still say so…but there is the defer in OT to see what your opponent does first…they don’t score..or kick a field goal changes your approach…being second after your opponent scores a TD is crucial as well.

And we can see why he wasn't worth the money

He wasn’t break the bank money. I believe and believed all along he actually was very needed. You really get so stubbornly drawing lines about what you’ll pay a player. We brought in Adorre, had Ringo, Traded for Bennett, traded for Jaire, Carter…feels like I’m forgettable mg somebody. It’s our D biggest weakness. His price tag is cheap if it’s the missing piece for our D. You gotta complete the championship puzzle. Sure starts with drafting, finding bargain FAs and best bargain values. Totally agree there. But then…you gotta get that last piece.

Rodgers proved to be a fit here. Likely even stays here slightly cheaper. No MAs you going to die on the hill of value and price…even if it’s costing you a Lombardi…or home field…a complete Secondary. Just no debate Rodgers is so much better than any of these guys we running other than Q and DeJean. Every team just relying on targeting that position against our D. Been working for them. Rodgers was no risk already proven…not some outside FA.

If we kept Rodgers would have been so massive. They still would have been forced to target him instead of others. QBs wouldn’t have been confident at all doing that….unlike how QBs are emboldened with confidence the way it’s been this year instead.

I believe you could make an easy argument our D is top 5. Without the weakest link?

Who can? I’ve seen us just get toasted all season with this position as our weakest link. I’d call paying Rodgers peanut’s for what gains our team would have incurred. We’ve been making trades and bringing in any and everybody trying to fix that position…still haven’t.

Yeah...you hate that lack of creativity when a 20 yard gain gets called back for a dumb penalty

Copied an article from NBC writer…not my words.,.but yes…not enjoying how across the board things aren’t crisp and tight like quality coaches demand.

It does absolutely drive me nuts we have zero creativity. Nothing further than one step thinking. Route combos I don’t like too much also. Be great to try a real pro O. Can’t figure out why I’m the only one demanding and looking for this. Not like the salary cap holding back hiring a quality coach.

What about red zone where you have a smaller area to work with and more difficult when the defense knows what is coming?

I absolutely believe this is the key strength we are seeing this season. Our O is so underachieving …only saving grace is scoring a TDs when we do get there so much less than we should be.

Didn't Dallas get the ball to start the game?

Yeah…we really stink in the sSecond half way too much. Other coaches adapt and adjust…ours cannot…DOOM!! How high can any expectations be with this all going on.

Bears on Friday going to be a tough game…. Nothing all that special on O really good defense and they find ways to win games this year.

Yeah just the sixth best O because they hired a quality O mind. See the difference in their QB? Like night and day. Imagine if we had that instead of the worst O for our players to run this whole time under Siri…exception being Moore contribution season.

Stop confusing Ham with facts

Us blowing in the second half…is its own fact to consider…

Sidney will be fine…..Mukuba was just a rookie making good plays..but also mistakes. Combination of outside CB2 and Sidney on the same side would be the combo to be concerned about. Unfortunately it’s not like they have Siri running their O where they won’t know how to take advantage and make this happen. Blankenship injury, even though playing, also just making us weaker.

Yeah…he’s tough. Really going to test any matchup on us. The kind of WR that can still be productive in ways even against Q and DeJean.

BG Bears nothing special O is second in explosive play rate.

This matchup versus the Bears reads off ripe for heartbreak again. They have five comeback wins…while we are very susceptible to opponents out scoring is late in games.

Broncos…Cowboys…hard to live in reality and not believe it’s a real strong chance to happen again. Never really know..maybe Bears lead early..but in real danger of establishing this as part of the 2025 Eagles identity.

Killing me our season so limited by the O coach situation.

Nick Sirianni: 'We've just got to get up'

Unfortunately this was his response to his players asking for football answers on O

Those criticisms were sparked by Eagles left guard Landon Dickerson insinuating the coaching staff did not get them ready for the five-man fronts the Cowboys were running. Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni seemed to have made things worse by admitting they didn't have enough time to prepare for it.
