1 hour ago1 hr 2 minutes ago, Utebird said:Yup Siris offensive philosophy of were going to beat you with simple basic football because were just have more talent and are better than you doesnt cut it when the talent drops off and thr biggest talent drop off this year has been their usually stellar O line yet Siri instead of trying to scheme things up just continues with the pee wee league route combinations and vanilla schemes and playcallingThe eagles cant just line up and get 60 yards runs every game yet they run the offense like they are.I was happy to see the eagles run a lot more 11 yesterday instead of 12 but how many targets did Dotson get in those sets? Zero. Part of that is on hurts and part of it on scheme and routes.Even on the last 3rd and 2 they line up in 11 and get pre snap what looks like a 1 on 1 up top with AJ but instead the LB slides over and AJ runs a 5 yard hitch that the DB is sitting on because the cowboys have seen that a bazillion. It looked like a 1 read play, which I hate and when that read was gone hurts had no idea what to do with the ball. Why even pass the ball there in the first place, stupid call, stupid scheme stupid execution and thats been the eagles all year, that one play sums up so much of whats wrong with the most expensive offense in the leagueThere were a lot of people that got upset with me when I said in 2019 that Doug’s offense was not overly innovative and it became stale. But the proof was every week all 22 breakdowns showed it. Plus, his personnel was not being utilized to its maximum. 2017 Doug and Reich did a wonderful. But after that each year the offense got more predictable and more stale. Eventually when the roster began deteriorating, he and his offensive staff really didn’t have an answer to keeping their high level of play on offense. Eventually, wentz completely fell off the cliff and at that point, it was complete implosion regardless of what Doug could or couldn’t do it.Imo sirianni is Doug but much more willing to play a conservative approach with minimizing turnovers with a good defense. People can disagree but if we had better offensive coaching I’m not sure games like KC, Tampa, Denver are even close. Heck I’m not sure if Gb and the lions is a one possession game at the end with how the defense played.
1 hour ago1 hr I’ll say it again.If it’s ok for AJ Brown to get 3 catches a game, it should be ok for Saquon to get 10 touches. Contracts and feelings be damned.
1 hour ago1 hr Completely unacceptable. Sirianni is lucky he won the SB because if not and this season ends because the offense comes up lame, he'd 100% be fired if he didn't have a SB under his belt.

Pickens seems to be showing more on the field and more self control than Cee Dee...they better find a way to keep Pickens.
1 hour ago1 hr Soon we will all realize that this roster just isn't nearly as good as last year's. The depth is lacking and it shows up with injuries that happen in game. Put Pryor in at Right Tackle VS Broncos and we lost. Without Q and Carter and we lose VS. Giants. Lose Blankenship, Jackson and Ojomo hurts wrist and it all falls apart VS Cowboys. Kept saying in here our depth will be our undoing. At some point, players are responsible here. They are having down years with Barkley, AJ and Carter and most of the offensive line. Didn't like the Jurgens or Barkley extension and loss of a few depth players. Stand by that here. Think Rams are the Creme of the crop!
1 hour ago1 hr 4 minutes ago, Sack that QB said:The offensive line hasn't played well and guys are banged up, but I'm sorry. I saw Dallas, who has a less talented OL than the Eagles play a game this season missing 4 of 5 starters and find ways to move the ball consistently and run the ball. The Bucs had at least one if not multiple games where they were missing 3 starters. Every damn week I watch red zone and teams that have far less talented OLs lose guys to injuries, have guys in and out of the lineup. They find a way. With less talented RBs too. I see it every damn week.I'm not saying I expect the Eagles to have the #1 running offense in the NFL again. But they can't get anything going every week? Nothing? They can't bust one big play? When you still have guys with talent on this OL. You have Barkley. You have Bigsby. You have Goedert. You have Hurts' legs as a threat. You have WRs on the outside to take attention from the defense. It's totally unacceptable. I have to put that on coaching and preparation.When teams around the league have injuries to the o line and can still run with the backups part of the reason is they sit down the injured guys and play the healthy backups, not the eagles though they trot out the dead corpses of one legged o lineman to cos play as speed bumps.Backups ate better than guys with one leg.Jurgens is hurt, he cant move, he got abused yesterday and has all year, Dickerson has been playing on one leg all year and was again useless yesterday and apparently yesterday was the first time he snd the coaches ever saw an odd defensive front...😒Doesnt help that mailata who has two functional legs has been playing like hot garbage, whens the last time you saw him pancake anyone? Heck id settle for a crepe at this point Id sit jurgens down til hes healthy. Toth isnt all pro but he has two legs, the eagles best run performance this year was with toth.Id sit dickerson down as well and let him get healthy, let a young guy play, not Pryor, that dude has two legs but he might as well be in a wheel chair, dudes legs never worked.Eagles top unit and the one thing they could usually rely on was having a top O line, theyve been ok as pass blockers but as run blockers as a unit they are dead last in expected rush yards/ block and if they cant get better there the only place theyre going come playoff time is home.
1 hour ago1 hr Yeah, I'll just say it.....if this team goes in the tank at the end of the year again, a-la 2023, Sirriani should be fired.

1 hour ago1 hr 39 minutes ago, LeanMeanGM said:Not to make this another 10 page Hurts debate but I don't think he played well. He wasn't terrible and he's not high on the list because of so many other bad issues happened. But his accuracy and ball placement has been off since the bye. I can understand the difficult environment in Green Bay and the cold swirling winds in the Linc, but yesterday in a dome was just as bad. He was bailed out a few times by Brown and Smith. To be fair, he did have a few nice throws to Brown in stride but overall, I think he was pretty inaccurate and below average. Especially when you factor in the opposing defense.He was not good last night. He had a lot of company. That includes AJ, who can laugh about whatever all he wants, he got more involved but still wasn't good enough.

Eagles win that battle... and lost the game.Catching a punt at the 1 yard line should have gotten Gipson cut on the spot... and force him to walk back to Philly. . Bonehead of all bonehead plays last night. I can't think of a bigger mental mistake by either team than that.
1 hour ago1 hr 1 hour ago, LeanMeanGM said:Is Michael Clay good?Every time I start to think he is, something incredibly stupid and bad happens. Some of it is on the players but we also have seen just the dumbest boneheaded things coaching should have straightened out in rookie minicamps.Gipson fielding that punt inside the 10 yard line doesn't happen if Clay is telling him not to field the punt inside the 10. Then there are the penalties.

1 hour ago1 hr 9 minutes ago, Saltpeter said:Rams are starting Emmanuel Forbes at CB dude, no team has 22 All Pros.Listen, Howie had a pretty bad offseason when it comes down to it. I like the Phillips trade. But he's been backpedaling since this offseason trying to make things right. Have too many scrubs coming in like Sydney Brown and Matt Pryor. LOL Adoree they have managed to hide, but he's been pretty bad compared to Slay. CJGJ, should have signed him a couple weeks ago for a song. Not enough depth at DT, so with one injury we are done with all the guys playing too many snaps and tired. He's just been off. Sorry...

1 hour ago1 hr 55 minutes ago, wussbasket said:The scoring of 21 points pretty quickly and then absolutely not being able to adjust is what sticks out to me. The coaching staff had a plan and it worked, right up until the cowboys adjusted. And then they just didn't know what to do.Some of those 21 points were fool's gold. That second drive was extended because of a roughing the kicker and then we also had another 3rd down conversion because of a penalty. The Cowboys gifted us those points.
1 hour ago1 hr That is such a straw man. No one I've seen is saying Saquon is "the" issue with the running game.People are saying he's playing like crap because he is.That sequence on the last drive where he tried dancing around then got tackled by his ankles for no gain, then inexplicably fell down on 2nd down 2 yards short was terrible.Of course the next play was the Hurts sack so it's easy to forget, but Saquon left a bunch of critical yards on the field
