Dean came in and made our run D legit. We are as prepared as can be having already dealt with this the first half of the season.

And how does that make any of these games not meaningful? They all counted?

You must make sure you are an organ donor, your brain is a must to donate to science

You obviously didn’t notice how our players were slack and fairly uninterested. Just pulled it together going about their business to get the W….against terrible team lead by their third string QB.

Highly likely that injury ends his production as an Eagles.

Depends on how severe. He has at least 3 weeks to recover

Imagine the score if Elliot and Shipley weren't playing?

Curious if we look to move on from Elliott in the offseason he had a rough stretch the last 2 seasons…. Or the very least serious competition for him

On a bunch of pain meds, trying to figure out if any of these next 2 games are worth risking our starters as far as seeding. We need the practice, need to be healthy.

My brain's being donated to science fiction.

have to wonder how much of starters play the next 2 weeks what is the balance of resting them to get healthy and to much rest that they are rusty?

So what to do about/with Elliott. Dude used to be money, now he is hard to trust. In post season sometimes FG's decide if you go home

Hs ANYONE ever challenged a replay assist be/fore yesterday?

That was pretty weird

Shipley should get 20 carries each of the next 2 games!

Seems high IMO. Bigs should be carrying the 2 downs I would think, but I would like to see Ships role increased. TBH our return game isn't all that hot either

Mine has been "pre rejected" and will end up on the back shelves at Goodwill

Is the Bigsby TD the same play that Barkley ran for a TD last year in the NFC championship?

Yeah our guys were the most hungry of any team out there just needing a win so badly since we just needed two wins out of seven games. Nail biter stuff with so much pressure.

So they didn't want to get the 1 seed ...they were ONLY playing for the division?.

That's your theory....they didn't care since week 11?

Or....he doesn't have to play the next two weeks and can rest??

Maybe your idea that Hurts is this great leader is BS ...if you believe the team has not been interested the last 6 weeks.

Would a great leader let that happen. Which is it? Hurts is not a leader or the team was actually playing to win? One or the other, can't have it both ways

If the Bears win one of their 2 games.. we can't do better than the 3rd seed. If Tampa wins out we still get yhe 3rd seed.

Don't take much to figure we can just rest.

If it was a 3 gap, yes. We run that alot(Between Dickerson and Cam) What was evident to me was the player drive. They were hitting harder. Nice to see. Bark absolutely needs to get ins space to be effective, Tank is more of an "in your face" RB IMO

Tank should rest for playoffs. Shipley should be getting 20 carries and bring up a 4th RB if they have one. Barkley shouldn't dress, and Tank can rest too.

My point... i shouldn't have to watch either of the next 2 games . Similar to the last few years when the games mean nothing. Shipley should be playing games mean nothing let him run all game long.

Shipley all of a sudden seems unreliable

Except players want to play. You'll hear alot of grumbling from AJ because Hurts failed him early and he only started getting stats after dropping hints. Bark would be cool, IDK how tank feels and I understand it's a coaching decision,but these guys aren't happy sitting around
