He continues to embarrass Lurie with this nonsense.

He hasn't learned. Passion and aggressiveness is one thing, but he acts like a clown.

No injuries and getting healthier still with one of the greatest players to play the position coming back (we hope).

One home playoff game so far and still alive for 2.

No juggernauts in the league this season.

Tons of playoff experience.

Lights out D.

Good to great punter.

Decent coverage units.

Decent kicker. Not yet good on FGs BUT does rise in the playoffs. I would say good to very good on KOs?

Hurts is a gamer in the playoffs.

They have done better in the last three games on O. More spread. More under center. More play action. More crossers. A bit less stupid ish...

Not one single statement above can be disputed reasonably.

Be honest. Stop with the posturing and agendas. Be honest.

No, I've explained it like 3 times now. You said: "If not for a stupid fumble and short field, this offense has scored 6 points." Well the offense didn't just score 6 points, they scored 13. That logic can go both ways if you want to play the "what if" game.

Then you used several straw man arguments suggesting I praised the offense, called it "vaunted" and moved the goal posts to suggest I said the offense doesn't have issues and is playing great.

There is nothing wrong about what I said. I was talking about outside of a lucky instance, which it was, they did nothing. The entire world just watched it.

Obviously it did happen and obviously they scored 13. No one has denied that.

Pretty hard to get 2-3 yards when the oline blocks no one

This is also an issue. Run blocking after the 1st two runs of the second half looked like crap. Then again i feel like patullo just went away from it and then asked them when it matter to just step up. I still do not get when Barkley ran the first two players of the second half and got 15 yards. Just keep feeding them until buffalo shows you they can stop him. It felt like we took ourselves out of it.

Remember that the Hurts hate is a demented religion. You can't dispute it with facts or reality, accomplishments or statistics.

The ignore settings are the only way out.

I took about 5 of them off ignore for the game and all 5 are spouting their weird doctrine after the game.

The high priest really loves his confused emojis.

The problem is simple. Execution.

I mean forget playcalling, when you are trying to run out the clock, you should be able to get 5 or 6 yards running the ball twice. Setting up makeable 3rd downs.

They literally can't run block to save their lives.

Prediction: last two drafts were defense, this spring it's going to be offense, multiple OL and TE and a blocking TE/FB in later rounds. And maybe a FA or two.

Next year they'll have the depth to shut down Dickerson and Jurgens until they're healthy and a better backup OT than Fred.

Because it's really hard to put together an OL that is this bad at run blocking.

Yes, better play design and play calling (study the Bears) would help the run game, but in the end it comes down to mano mano, beat the M--F--- in front of you!

I agree … but… the conservative play calling was obnoxious… they mostly went back to condensed sets running into the teeth of the stacked D out of shotgun. I liked seeing 36 on the edge with Hurts under center on their successful drive in the first half.

I agree with you. Another problem with going under center is what sheil pointed out in their podcast. when they’re under center they run it 82% of the time. Which is a problem cause you are very predictable and teams just are going to sell out on the run and play the percentages and analytics. They need to start building off of that and start throwing more. Because they’re actually good when they pass it under center because our guys doing their job and some of it is i don’t think defenses are expecting us to be passing due to the 82-18 ratio

Just like after the KC game. Dude...you just escaped cause he couldn't hit an open guy. I'm so sick of him. Fire him

For an "offensive" HC...

who started to work with the offensive side more...

for the offense to not complete a SINGLE pass in the 2nd half...

to have only ONE first down in the entire second half...

maybe he should shut up and be a little more introspective.

This is 2023 on the offensive side of the ball... the difference is the defense is coached by a true professional. But the offense shouldn't be celebrating today, they should be working to figure out why they suck.

I thought there were a couple injuries?

If only he were that aggressive with the play calling, rather than the turtling... maybe they would have completed a pass in the second half.. or gotten TWO first downs in the second half.

Minor dings. They all reentered the game.

This didn’t exactly work out great in 2023 when he said that after the chiefs game

Game winning play.

Felt the same at the time, you see the ball hit the ground more clearly than Smith's catch. Of course they wouldn't have overturned it though because we know why. But it should've been challenged.

Who?

Lane coming back. Dean coming back. Philips came back. Dejean caught a shot in the nuts I thought.

If the time of possession is relatively even, we always have a chance with this defense as long as the offense keeps the turnovers to a minimum.

And more good news…great game by Campbell and we are getting two weeks for Lane and Dean back…rest them all next week… they will be ready for anything. Gutty wins with a lot of learning lessons like this benefits the Eagles in the long term.
