Bad day for injuries

The Rams have Adams, Puka, Verse, and a few other players.

Landman has been a Baun-lite level surprise. Good for them.

They played a crap schedule. We knew at the beginning of the year that the 49ers and Rams were playing joke schedules.

They are INFERIOR in talent. This is a fact.

You can form a cult of Rams worship if you want.

Their offensive coaches are much better. You can have that one.

Denver also has an inferior roster to Philly, even though they beat Philly (thanks, AJ!) and have a better record.

I agree that the Packers season ended today. Parsons is a game changer. I don't think the Watson injury is serious but Parsons just evolved them.

Play the Rams here, in LA (with 35-45% Eagles fans) wherever, I have zero concerns.

Stafford is a chump who feasts on easy button.

The match up I like the least for the Eagles is Chicago in Chicago. They were incredibly physical and they have a great HC / offensive gameplay guy.

Seattle's D might be tough, but Darnold is easily rattled.

I'd hate to play Denver in Denver but that game would be in Santa Clara.

Just to point out the rams have a harder SOS than the eagles and beaten more current playoff teams than the eagles. Eagles against teams currently in the playoffs 3-3 (beat rams, packers and TB; lost to broncos, bears and chargers). Rams 5-2 (beat SF, jags, Texans, Seattle and Tampa bay; lost to eagles and SF). According to tankathon eagles have a .491 SOS this year. Rams are .521.

So rams have played a tougher schedule than the eagles and have more wins vs. playoff teams.

Just because you have more talent than another team does not make you a better team. The Eagles have more talented team than the Dallas Cowboys, the LA Chargers, and the Chicago Bears and that they lost all three of those games. Looked miserable on offense for much of those games with superior offensive talent.

You can keep coming with this BS like where you say well you can worship the bills or you can worship the rams, it’s dumb. Nobody is saying they are unbeatable and they’re the greatest team ever. What people are telling you is it’s not just the Eagles who are a good team. You like the crap on every other player and every other team that’s not the Eagles. You come up with all these stats for everyone else. I can come up with stats for the Eagles that show that they haven’t been a very good team since bye. So I could say the same to about keep worshiping the Eagles and you pretend they don’t have their issues and flaws like offensive coaching, play calling, lackluster offensive line play in run game and hurts playing a bad 5 game stretch.

Request: If you post content from weirdos like Dov, please also summarize because many of us will never click.

The eagles need to get their 💩 together.. the NFC was already open but some of this injury news isn't looking good for the other contenders

Damn didn't know people hated whoever "Dov" is ..I just posted whatever embedded

I unfollowed that dude months ago and it was the best move I ever madew, I hate that Fing account.

Let me guess, it either starts with "Devastating:" or "Terrible:" Or "Heartbreaking:" or "Tragic:"

A clickbait account full of absolute BS. Every Fing post is Hyperbole followed by a :

Dov is intentionally hilarious.

Mahomes just tore his acl

I was wondering today- How long does Andy hand around in KC. How long till he realizes their run is over? And does he continue sticking around or just pack it in when he realizes theyre done?

Theyve declined greatly over the past few years. Maybe Kelce retires. Chris Jones should start declininc soon. Now Mahommes could be seriously hurt....

Then I thought, how soon till we can get Andy to come here to be our OC?

6ers got screwed out of a final possession when the refs missed a back court violation on the Hawks inbound pass. Terrible. it was a 1 point game...

Play the Seahawks on Thursday night. I’m guessing he’s out for the game. Massive implications as win then they are 1 up on them and own the tiebreaker. Lose behind by a game. Frankly need Seattle to lose to SF to hold the tiebreaker. if Seattle beats the rams but loses to Carolina and beats sf they’d have the same record, conference record so i believe the tiebreaker comes down to common opponents. Both would’ve lost to Carolina, rams beat Tampa and Seattle Lost and both swept the afc south. So i think th rams win that tiebreaker.

Yeah that was bad - but then again there are missed calls like that all the time

Dov sucks he post nothing but hyperbole.

Here’s why Jalen Hurts is better than Peyton Manning.

f the cowboys but that fake fg was nice

@HazletonEagle

Is the expert on this. Isn’t an anterior drawer test specific but not sensitive for ACL tear?

Its still very popular but Lachman seems to be the preferred test. I couldnt tell you the sensitivity and specificity numbers. I havent looked at those in a long time.

Don’t forget they are $34 mil over the cap heading into the offseason.

Tbh the reason the Chiefs have the issues they do, is because Andy Reid has gotten away from what his core values are. Which is building up the trenches. Their offensive line has gotten significantly worse over time. You can lose Tyreek Hill and survive with the wide receivers they have. Rice, worthy and brown aren’t great. But they aren’t bad. they are good enough. The issue really is every year since 2018 they have gotten a worse along the offensive line. at this point they have Humphrey, Trey smith and i think Simmons will be fine if he stays healthy. Everyone else is not good. Trading thuney was a mistake considering how the oline needed help last year at both tackle spots.

Really interesting playoff field this year. If the Eagles could have kept their crap together, this would have been a cakewalk to a repeat. The NFLs actual best teams this year probably aren't ready to be taken seriously against a team that perennially handles itself well in the playoffs. It's just hard to fear the Broncos, Patriots, Seahawks...or even the Packers/Lions/49ers. The Rams are the scariest team and they aren't that scary. Specifically with regards to the 1 seed...playing away there feels like a pleasant weather neutral site. The Eagles haven't even been great in the elements lately so they might be better off.

Every single opponent is highly beatable. But there's just no way this offense will score enough points to win 4 games in a row against reasonably good teams. Not happening.

Dov isn't even a real person. It's an account that strictly exists to maximize profit. Any post that tries to come off like it's run by a football fan is a post that is designed to get interactions, which will increase profit.

I just remember being told that, at the time of injury, a positive test is virtually diagnostic. But acute swelling and guarding/compensation with muscles prevent you from ruling anything out with a negative test.

Are we sure Dov doesn’t exist on this board….

Dallas is going to win 41-0 or so. McCarthy is just so terrible.

So the 1 seed is lost. And the division is basically won. As bad as the Eagles tailspin may or may not be, today should have demonstrated that the Eagles' incompetence is no match for teams that are competing for a #1 pick, whose players have quit, and who don't want to win. And that's going to be Washington x2.

With that in mind, they really, really should not have forced as many carries as they have to Barkley in recent weeks or forced Jurgens and Dickerson to play through their injuries. They had a chance to rest these guys and get them right for the playoffs, which, in turn, might have given the Eagles a chance. But the insistence to force them out there means we will probably be left with the crappy versions of these 3 players, which isn't going to cut it in the playoffs.

Looked like it was his foot/ankle. Adams and puka is a massive loss especially going into a Thursday night game against the Seahawks

Id be very excited for a Whittington breakout game. The guy balled last year and they just wont give him playing time. One of my favorite WRs of that draft. Hes like another Puka waiting to be unleased.

To your last point, I tend to agree. However, this team reminds me a lot of the 2023 Chiefs, who won the Super Bowl. They had an outstanding defense. they rode it most of the way through the playoffs with the offense making plays when they had too or giving the defense just enough. The offense didn’t have the same problems. But the Chiefs had different set of issues with their offense  but like the eagles it wasn’t as prolific as years past. Had games where they scored 14 vs. raiders, 17 vs. Buffalo and 19 vs. Gb. But playoffs they found ways to score 26, 27, 25 and 17. If the eagles can find a way to get themselves to 24 points they have an excellent chance to win every game. That said eagles offense (Minnesota had a defensive td) has done that 5 times in 14 games.

Something Eagles fans have painfully experienced
