The media loves to glaze the Rams nonstop. That back 7 of theirs is not good. Stafford is good for one or two turnovers in a big game. Just not worried about them. I’d be more concerned playing Dallas in a playoff game than the rams

I really hope you don't believe that. The game was long over by the time he entered. He ran it once and threw it three times.

It's the truth some people can't accept. Even with backups outside of scripted opening series that is that is one of the best drives in terms of how the offense looked all year. OL even blocked better and no it wasn't them giving up. He played with backups who didn't expect to play and made them look good.

He makes faster decisions and processes faster. He is a better fit for this offense this year than Hurts. Again, even when he ran he didn't glitch like Hurts does trying to decide he just took off.

Remember

This was a team that wants the #1 draft spot

This is a bit of a hot take because you’d really have to check out the all 22…and it’s only been essentially one game (Raiders don’t count as a game)…but I’m not sure that Epps hasn’t been an upgrade over Mukuba.

Agreed

Realistic

Had Eagles lost: season over

Had Eagles won but close: season over

Eagles win big: it's just the Raiders

There was no scenario for fans to be truly happy because of the opponent. They need to put into action what they've said all season: learn from mistakes, play to the standard, etc. and prove it consistently the rest of the season.

He took off once and threw it three times against the raiders who were long done with this game. I really can't take away anything from that with conviction. Granted, he looked fine with the few plays he had. I'm hoping we are not playing for anything of merit the last game and he can have a full go at it.

The chiefs were eliminated when the bill won..(I think that game ended before theirs).

@jamiller I lost track. There were at least 66 snaps. 18 would have been just over 1 snap under center out of every 4 snaps. Are we over or under that?

I figured I would win when I saw the first snap under center, but I sure did see a lot of shotgun...

No idea.🤣

All I know is this, just win the next two games so in week 18 we can just rest our starters

So much on the line!

The fact that you are using that last drive as some meaningful proof point shows such a blind agenda it's ridiculous

I said this would be a blowout before the game started. This was never going to be a contest. It’s just the Raiders is the ONLY appropriate response to today. You are exactly right that there was no scenario to be happy. Would you be happy on Thursday if the Eagles said they had an awesome walk through Wednesday?

There is a huge difference between beating a soon-to-be 2-15 team in September versus doing it in December. An all backup offense buttressed by a backup OL notorious for terrible depth effortlessly coasted down the field. And I’m not going to give McKee any credit either; he played pitch and catch with wide open 3rd string receivers.

The Raiders were a pro bowl team today. As in they played the way guys do in Honolulu back when they used to play the pro bowl. This was a practice against air.

Not going to lie rooting for the raiders to lose that one.

Starting to feel like a Rams Bills super bowl

Total yards today for the 2024 SB Champion Eagles QBs

Hurts 210 yards

McKee 42 yards

Pickett 38 yards

It's perfectly fair and correct to discount the Raiders. They stink. But to somehow indict Hurts who threw 3 incomplete passes one of which was the Goedert TD drop is really a nuts agenda. But consistent with this board at least.

You make some good points. Yes it was 3 passes and maybe they quite. Counter is he played with backups and if it was last year, the preseason, or today he makes fast decisions. This year with this team I'll roll with that.
