In wind like this, you would consider having the wind to your best advantage. I'm not sure if they'd do it, but it would be worth considering. One team did... but the message was messed up and instead of choosing to 'defend', the player said 'kick'. . IIRC, it was the Marty Morhinweg led Lions.
November 17Nov 17 2 minutes ago, TEW said: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.That’s true. Barkley isn’t a great receiver but he probably makes life easier for the passing game as you said. Scary to think of what it might look like without him consistently on the field to draw the defense into the box.

November 17Nov 17 Lions offense also got a little momentum with their last drive. Would be nice if the D could force a 3 and out to start the second half. Gotta try to keep the score down with our woes on the offensive side.
November 17Nov 17 You know how in War Games they teach Joshua by playing Tic Tac Toe?Can we teach Patullo to sometimes run when they expect pass and pass when they expect run by playing Mike Tyson's Punch OutLook, hes guarding high, hit him in the gut.Look, hes guarding low, hit him in the face.

Balls seem to be dying going both directions.

November 17Nov 17 Its hard to know if there is a limiting effect to forcing the ball to AJ since the rest of the Eagles keep dropping passes.

November 17Nov 17 I think best case for eagles this year is to win the SB like the 2023 Chiefs. Sort of a diminished team that just knows how to win in a year where the nfl lacks a standout team.No one in the nfl is scary this year or a traditional blueprint for success….including our Eagles. But the Eagles are a team that knows how to win and are better in the biggest moments.They just aren’t that great. But no one else is either.

November 17Nov 17 Author Mabey a late take...but calling Barkley down at the goal line was a blessing. Took another 16 seconds off the clock.

November 17Nov 17 Just now, Connecticut Eagle said:This Detroit offense still scares the **** out of me.As long as the Eagles can capitalize on their opportunities and score TDs and not FGs … they should be ok. I am confident the defense will regroup and adjust. I think the Lions have been more effected by the wind than the Eagles.
