Long time before opening day and we have to be ready - GB improved as well. Sucks it's a Philly home game - city's losing money. The schedule isn’t even anymore with 17 weeks. So we better not have only 8 Home games with Sao Paolo counting as one….leaving us only 7 true at home.
May 2, 20241 yr Last season was a tale of two halves of the home games schedule. Kelly Green Home were unstoppable. After that the home crowd frankly acted pretty dumb. Being so loud and raucous when our O had the ball. Our players talked about how they couldn’t hear audibles and assignments on O….at home. Couldn’t try and draw offsides on the D over the noise with cadence. Always thought Eagles fans were more knowledgable football understanding bunch. That was not insignificant.
May 2, 20241 yr But DeJean was about to be even more versatile if he returned to Iowa for his senior season. Hawkeyes head coach Kirk Ferentz says he was prepared to play DeJean quite a bit on offense in 2024. "Had he come back, we probably would have played him on offense next year,” Ferentz said in a Zoom interview with NBC Sports Philadelphia’s Danny Pommells this week. "I don’t know, 15, 20 plays a game. He had play-making ability.

QB1 sure doesn't .

Its why its up the to coach to adjust the last 15 seconds when we have empty backfield and they rush 6. Because its not up to the QB to audible. your words

I don't like the international BS anyway That's not the point... the league has it where the home team for international games is a team scheduled to have 9 home games so they still get to host 8 in their city.

You act like coaches don’t exist it matter most of your assessments on things. Well you know other than you wanted AR run out of town as the Bronze Standard…you jumped for joy over the brilliance of Chipper.

May 3, 20241 yr But what you are ignoring is the adjustments and audibles are all setup by the coaches in the first place. The QB and every other player is just out there trying to execute what is being coached. Coaches teach the players what their vision is of how to adjust to the various situations that arise. Coach will explain that if this O playcall is on and the D is aligned this way he wants them to adjust routes/blocking…so on and so on….which goes all the way to include an audible. Players mostly just try to make the vision of the coaches a reality.
