I don’t think we can win at Tampa without Brown and Smith all game. It really sucks that New Orleans decided to head hunt instead of play football. 

Hopefully Slay is back next week too.

Siranni don’t deserve that win. Bittersweet 

There’s nothing bitter about a W. Sirianni isn’t the enemy. Whose side are you on? 

  

The offense should run through Barkley, even when AJ comes back. Hurts is turning the ball over at an unsustainable rate and less will be more for him. Defense looks like its starting to get things figured out, but they need to keep building on it.

If we had faster ILBs, we would love Reed. With the LBs we have, Reed's weaknesses show up more. 

I wonder if the eagles will ever look at Nolan Smith to play ILB?

You need to play him as an OLB to see if he can gain the strength to rush the passer, but if not, I think he could be pretty darn good inside. He has the speed to chase people down sideline to sideline and in theory should be able to cover better than most ILBs with his athleticism.

2-1 is 2-1. 

Beat the Bucs and we're 3-1 heading into the bye. Just win baby. 

Last year 10-1 was 10-1... until it wasn't.    Winning beats losing, but these last 2 weeks were bad.  One a loss they should have won, and today a win they tried to piss away with horrific coaching decisions.

He can’t play ILB. He has zero awareness. 

So is Minnesota and Sam Darnold now the best team in football? 😄😄

Ringo was thrown in cold in a tough spot, but still don't see it with him at all.

He got cooked on his lone play, turned inside out.  Carter showed up for 4 quarters though.  The rest (Davis, Dean and Smith) maybe had about 3 plays between them?

They should be 3-0 and lucky they aren’t 0-3. I have no idea what this team even is.

Easy now, don't take Nick off the hook turning down points like they were raw broccoli.

I am ok with the one at the end of the half.  Still early in the game.  Less than two yards.  You know that you're getting the ball at the beginning of the second half.

The second one was misguided.  Almost four yards.  Time to put point on the board,

If this team were to pull off a miracle and go deep in the playoffs, it will be on Saquon's back.

Davis played pretty well.

There are good things to take from the game despite the mistakes. Hurts threw for 311 yards. Barkley and Goedert balled out. Defense stepped up. 

We have to hope last season doesn't repeat. They need to show consistency, reduce mistakes, and get some comfortable wins. 

Siri's decisions are too costly. What the hell is he even doing?

I would add Fangio starting to get more out of his personnel than he did the first two weeks. I don’t think defense is 100% a personnel problem. Obvious have some deficiencies. But Carter can play this well every week he’s that good. Frankly he did the first month last year. You can use some of your guys better defensively. Or why we made the move to him and paying him he money we are. I will give him his credit when he has a performance like this. He deserves it with how the saints looked so far this year. I disagree when people go personnel is the solely the reason. He was brought in here to get more out of guys than what Desai could. Today he did that

No.  But he really needs to start making decisions that make sense with his head instead of every decision from his heart like he’s playing Madden 

 

No excuse to go for it on 4th with 13 seconds left in the half.  Always take the FG there

When he actually connects. 

The STs fiasco notwithstanding, I'm seeing some progress from Nolan Smith at edge. I believe far more in Smith's long term development than I do in Bryce Huff ever being a player.

Outside of the blown coverage play by Dean he was playing well and had a number of tackles at the LOS.  You're top percentile of terrible takes on this board.

Siri was harder to beat than the Saints 

Holy crap I though Deuce Vaughan was a dude sitting down.

What fiasco?  He blocked the player closer to the punter.
