Wait, Barkley can squat 600 pounds? Why aren’t more people talking about this?!

New snowball thrown at Santa just dropped

Did Elliott make a FG on that kickoff?

Nobody is hitting a long FG in these winds

You never know.

I like Dan. Even a cool guy in the interview

Go Birds

I can’t tell if there is an advantage either way with the wind..it would be interesting to see if Lions choose to take a field direction instead of the ball to start the 2nd half…I doubt Campbell would do it

That would be bold. Jake's kick was very short at the open end of the field. The longer kicks were in the closed end. But his kicks looked way better than the longer kick by the Lions' kicker. It never had a chance.

It’s not a "last year is ancient history Barkley sucks” thing.

It’s that, statistically, Barkley isn’t giving them running averages above his backups or league average. And Barkley has a ton of mileage.

Fewer snaps may make him a lot better. And Tank’s snaps may give the offense looks that are more favorable for a run anyway. Win/win.

The counter point is that Barkley commands defensive attention that Tank doesn’t.

As bad as our pass offense is, it might be even worse without that attention on 30% more plays.

Eagles D has allowed 13 points in the last 6 quarters.

No comment on if the Eagles offense has scored 23 points in the last 6 quarters

Hurts led a touchdown drive, kept the offense focused despite early struggles. 💪🏻

He’s a football guy just goes about his business and doesn’t let the bs get in the way. He’s very likeable

Outside of the 3rd DB issue, the defense looks dominant since their new additions to the dline. Looking like what we saw on that postseason Super Bowl run.

Zero chance any coach gives up a possession for wind.

Is Bennett on IR?

going to bed hopefully I wake up to an eagles win

The defense has come to play. Huge play after huge play all night so far.

The offense started off really rough but showed some good things towards the end of the 1st half.

It's a problem that their gameplan of how to approach offense every week never works and they only ever get anything going when they abandon it and just start doing other things.

I thought he was active

The line seems to be getting into a rhythm

Why didn't the Lions take any timeouts on the Eagles drive btw? Campbell not coaching his best game either.

Nope. He was on the field when Detroit attempted to draw us offsides.

I hope Lurie knows that a big benefit of the generational defense he has built is being an outdoor stadium. This game and last week's game shows it.
