Kempski said Dotson was WIDE OPEN on that boot action dump off to Goedert. 

Right in my corner of the end zone. 

There was also a time Smith was covered by #96 who then looked like he would blitz. There was no one else there but a safety. Smith streaked wide open deep, and Hurts threw to a triple covered AJ slant for an incompletion.

Let’s set aside the trash talk and trolling for a second.  If Hurts has no mobility thanks to that knee…does he give you anything of value whatsoever to trot him out as the QB?

I’m not saying to "bench” him.  But if his knee dictates that he can’t run, that’s like a RBs knee dictating that they can’t play.  If he can’t run, then I really think that just means he’s not healthy enough to play the game and suit up.  
 

 

What a great game from Burks. That was such a hard spot to come in on after struggling last week and he got it done. Major props to him.

I think the difference is Allen as a QB didnt take a bunch of stupid sacks.

I’d also argue Josh Allen doesn’t have two pro bowl caliber wide receivers, an all pro running back and the best offensive line in the league. Bills have good talent but no one in the league has as much talent on offense as the eagles. The reason why people get upset with the passing game is because we have all these weapons and it should be better. That’s on Moore, hurts, OL not getting penalties and WRs catching footballs

I’m sure they’ll see how he does this week.  But in reality, unless he has trouble walking, there’s a 99% chance he’s starting. 

Need to look at how much Brown and Smith are being paid if they aren’t going to be utilized.

An immobile Hurts might be the 3rd best qb on this team.  I will grant that a mobile Hurts is clearly the best.  But if you take everything away from him that the pro Hurts crowd says is so important and extra that he brings….thats a serious problem.

So tell us how it's like with your team not making it to a NFC Championship Game in nearly 30 years while Hurts is getting to his 2nd in 4 years as a starter.

Well, it's a stress free environment that I am familiar with unfortunately, and congrats to Hurts for making it to his 2nd, hell I hope he (Eagles) wins his first SB, I've said that many times over the last few weeks.

You see I am an objective fan that observes the game without bias. It's OK. You can still believe he is a top 5 QB in the league, I won't argue with you...I'l just provide stats that say otherwise.

No one believes that Hurts is a top 5 QB outside of those posts.

This is a weekly stat line for only one of them.

And that same weekly stat line guy plays on an all-star team, while the other guy is dragging an entire franchise towards the Super Bowl.

I came into this season thinking Hurts is top 10. I’m doubting he’s top 20 at this point.

What’s there to look at?  They’re not the problem. 

They need to have a plan in place for Pickett if Hurts looks labored. The video of him walking to the locker room with Dom wasn't great.

Not with the way he has been playing - he needs his athleticism to be effective. But there is no way the Eagles will bench him and go with Kenny P in such a critical game. The best thing we can hope for is that Hurts is healthy.

Yup.

Dawk at the link makes perfect sense for the NFCCG.

BDN for the Super Bowl has all the vibes.

Dawk was at the Linc today

Rather have Hurts than Pickett.

If Hurts mobility is affected then they need to gameplan to get quick throws for him.

I think he'll be fine.  They will play it up all week that he may not be able to scramble but he will.

Gotta make McKee 2. DC tore KP up.

Reading is fundamental.  I said their "RUN" D was garbage.  And it was.  Both times.  

Sorry didn’t see that 😂

God why?

I was born and raised in Annapolis. I started watching football between the colts and ravens. It was eagles or skins and I can't stand the skins. So while I love my eagles the Ravens are the team most of family roots for. I was rooting for my mom to be happy. And one of my sons

I focused on Dotson a lot while at the game today. Without knowing the progressions, play call, reads, etc I can’t say anything other than he was open a lot. He is not as bad as his production and I think he showed that in the Giants game with McKee at QB.

I wish McKee was backing up Hurts. I believe he's better than Pickett.
