Jack Sawyer is the better one. As a Buckeye fan, JT has never really lived up to the hype. Would really pass on both of them. If they could learn some pass rushing moves, there’s potential but they’re not that great 

Sawyer attacked Philly legend Jason Avant…so he’s off my board.

I kid with UK. I understand the skepticism being a Philly fan of anything. And honestly we can’t expect this defense to be absolutely lights out week after week after week in today’s NFL.  Especially bc they’re so damn young (which is awesome by the way). They had a letdown against the Commanders. I don’t expect another one this round, but I think if we lose a game where they let up a little bit, they won’t be to blame.  It’ll be bc Hurts is asked to do too much above his capabilities. 

Even that letdown against the commanders didn't happen till late in the game and still forced 5 turnovers and got the stop that should have ended it. I have nothing but, confidence in this defense. Especially in this weather we are going to have against the fairies of California. Im hopeful Hurts can bounce back and give one of those i can play QB games that he has from time to time.

I associate Jason Avant with a negative experience these days.

Was at the game where they were supposed to honor Nick Foles at half time. They didnt. You know what the half time show was? People salsa dancing on the field. You know who one of the dancers was? Jason Avant.

Weird. Random. And very disappointing that they Foles ceremony that was hyped never happened.

So now when I think of Avant, I think of my immense disappointment watching him salsa dance on the field rather than seeing Nick Foles honored.

I feel like our defense matches up perfectly with them. Stafford is a statue so there’s almost zero worries of him scrambling.  Even though Jalen Carter will be double teamed and held on every play, he will ruin his life up the middle, freeing up Williams and letting Nolan Smith eat. Their receivers are great, and so are our corners.  Leave Quinyon on an island against either of them. Toss Cooper all over the place. In the box, nickel, whatever.  Maybe bracket Nakua in the beginning with and extra safety, but Cooper Kupp no longer scares me as a YAC guy against this defense.  
 

My only concerns and they are slight concerns would be Burks/Trotter Jr in coverage over the middle and maybe stopping the run.  Gotta stop the run early. Wouldn’t want Jordan Davis to have 20 snaps and get too tired. 😒

What offense has really torn up the Eagles secondary when everyone was playing? Slay went out last game and they still held them mostly in check. Will they score? Yeah, but no QB was hotter than Joey B this year and they held them.

Feel good about things. They are at home, it will be cold, they have to fly across the country and they have to deal with Carter in his face all game. 

On the other side of the ball I saw video of MB tossing a LB like Uncle Phil throwing Jazz out the door. One of their best corners is dealing with an injury as well. 

Nobody on here hates Hurts more than me and I even think he'll have a better game. 

Have you been reading the books on aj brown’s book list?

Funny, we used to worry about Dean out there starting.. Now we are concerned without him. Trotter has great instincts though, i think if that is wgo Fangio goes with it should be fine

That’s one of the silliest things I’ve ever heard. But I’m not judging. 

I think of Avant as the slowest possession receiver that ever lived, had great Hallelujah hands and was decent at getting some clutch 1st downs, and was probably the only player alive that had worse YAC than Zach Ertz.

Hilarious. No, but if someone asks what I think about this week and that offense coming in my honest feeling is nobody comes into their house and pushes that team around on either side of the ball. They are built for this.

My usually very intelligent NYG fan friends here in Charlotte talked trash to me when the Eagles drafted Trotter Jr bc he obviously didn’t have great athletic measurables.  I told them to calm the F down, it was a frigging 3rd day pick, and I don’t give a rats hairy fartbox about his athletic ability. I care about his instincts at that position. Then I sent them a picture of my hairy sac!

Thatta boy! Show them whos boss!

@e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! Can you find the video of Jalen Hurts’s speech after their win in the locker room?  I don’t care about the speech. But CJGJ is in the background and he looks like he’s about to commit murder.  I changed my mind about him toning it down. I want him to run out onto the field and headbutt Shawn Smith right in the nose. Set the tone.  

Im still nit understanding the worry or even a little concern over the Rams. They have only scored over 30 points once all year and scored 30 only 2 other times all year. They have been pretty pedestrian most of the year. I know they dealt with sone injuries but, still i dont see how our defense even struggles at all.

I feel there will be at least a couple drives where the rams drive it with ease. I hope we can limit them to 3 points on some of those. I also hope its early before the defense fully settles in, rather than late in a needlessly close game due to our "offensive" struggles. 

For the most part, I think we will keep them under wraps. I just wish we could trust the "offense" to score a ton of points and make it easy.

I’ll have to do another search but only one i could find was sirianni in the locker room. You know what platform you originally saw it on?

Agreed, the offense is always a wild card. Hopefully, they get Saquan going early and then dont have to worry about his late game heroics to save us.

Im pretty pumped for this. Ive only been to 1 game with snow. I believe it was 2004 vs Packers Sunday night game. I dont think there was any accumulation, I just remember snow falling during the game.

This will be a whole different animal. Nothing like football in the snow. Well I guess there is something better. PLAYOFF football in the snow!

I just hope all the idiots dont jam up the roads with accidents when Im trying to drive home.
