Plus isn’t borderline bat**** crazy?

Those are the kinds of risks you can take when you've got a solid group of guys and only have a few regular season and playoff games left.

Just want to say this now…could not care less about 2,000 yards or a rushing title.

They better not overuse Saquan in weeks 17 and 18 to help pursue those things.

I think people's fear of his usage is unwarranted. He's not taking the damage other RBs are. He's averaging 6.2yds and averaging 4.5yds before contact

He is the best DE currently on this team. Not sure what you are watching 

Which isn't a good thing

Stafford is, by far, the best QB we've seen play the Eagles in a while.  I was impressed by him all night.  He throws a very accurate ball and makes a lot of good decisions.  I'm not sure how Q when he was targeted, but it looked to me like he gave up a few passes and a TD.  Not a bad night for him, though.  Cooper DeJean also looked very solid.  After Slay went out it looked like the Rams were trying to pick on Isiah Rodgers, but he did fine.  

Ravens will be tough.  Barkley v. Henry is going to be the main event, everything else is an undercard.

I woke up and the first thing I thought was they won....but BG and was bummed. All time Eagle deserved to go out at least in the playoffs. 

 

Becton with a nasty block

Sounds like BG's is fully torn. Don't recall JP ever playing with a fully torn biceps but I could be wrong.

Also a huge difference between a bicep and tricep for an edge defender 

"After a triceps tear that sidelined him for most of the 2012 regular season, Ray Lewis returned for the Ravens' playoff run and earned his second Super Bowl victory in his final NFL game."

BG duct taped up for one final playoff run before retirement.

Yep, their whole game is full arm extension

Looks like Tarron Jackson is the next man up at EDGE.  Apparently he looked good in preseason, so hopefully he can help fill the BG void.

Anyone got a scouting report on him?

BG played that hybrid inside-edge role. Wondering if a combo of Booker and Ojomo can fill a big part of that. They won't replace how smart BG played but I'm more concerned about continuing to be a run stopping team.

Way different positions. Graham has to lock arms with an Olineman on every play. Dude would be a liability

Yea, I know. Just really sucks that it had to be him. 

I don't mean to be crass or insensitive or inappropriate, but there are probably about twenty guys whose season-ending injuries would be worse for us. Virtually every starter on offense (maybe we could survive losing Becton because Steen is okay). On defense, Carter, Sweat, Baun, Mitchell, DeJean, maybe Dean or Williams.

F man, I'm still very upset about BG. He is an absolute legend and was on fire last night.

They definitely went after Rodgers.   He got beat a few times, but that DPI call on him was egregiously bad.  It was almost like the ref anticipated that he'd pull him around the waist, but he didn't.   Great coverage.

Tarron has been around here for years. He’s not good.

Feels dampened to me with the Brandon Graham injury.

It's not just the injury its saying goodbye to an all-time Eagle like that

That's the big part.   You couldn't fool him out there with boot action.  He always stayed home.

Let's hear some more.

Let's hear some more about how Sirianni needs to go.

About how Hurts is phoning it in after getting his contract.

About how getting Barkley was a mistake.

About the Georgia guys being busts.

About how bad our defense is.

 

Yeah this team sucks, huh?

All you bedwetters must have sheets like Bobby Boucher.

Thats absurdly high man

Agreed, but it isn’t an opinion.  It is simply the mathematical calculation of the yards he needs to get there in 16 games.

Seems like the team is beginning to peak at the right time - now it’s a matter of staying healthy and keeping the momentum going well into January

Sirianni still sucks... but the talent overcomes stupidity.   The sequence at the end of the first half was a disgrace.  Absolutely an utter disgrace.   Oh, and the red zone offense still struggles mightily.   BUT, at least Sirianni seemed to have learned from the past and kicked the FGs early this time.   

 

But that sequence at the end of the first half was the stupidest sequence at the end of a half I think I've ever seen.  And the final play was the cherry on top.

He could pull a TO and make it back for the Super Bowl.
