Well, he's not. But it's all we have. Blame Howies roster building. 
Fulgham should be getting minimum 12 looks per game. 

Pretty much.

He had a bad drop on a 3rd down tonight. 

Ok, he did. I'd still throw it to him over any other WR we currently have in a big spot other than Fulgham of course 

Only two more days of all the lies and vitriol in election commercials.  Just think, after the bye, car and beer commercials at the breaks in the giants game forward.  Between the commercials and Collingsworth, the mute button got a good workout as did my muttering moron.

I thought Edwards, Curry, and Reagor were pretty good tonight.  I was very disappointed in Wentz, Hightower, and Pederson.  That Diggs INT was a TD if it was thrown to the inside (might have been and the wind blew it), but IDK what Hightower was doing on that other throw against Diggs that hit the ground — he didn’t track that throw well at all.

If anyone in the Eagles secondary could catch a ball they would have had 4 INT tonight.

I'm giving HIghtower a pass. The wind was a factor. That's why Zeurlein had to kick the ball so low on that long FG attempt.  Carson threw a high arcing pass in 30+ MPH winds.  That's not a high percentage play.  

Ertz is getting traded.. Probably New England.

What other weapons are people waiting for to come back? Alshon? Ertz? The offensive line has obviously been destroyed, but I thought the protection tonight was good for the most part. Scott played well tonight and probably matched what Sanders would have offered. Wentz with a growing talent in Fulgham, Reagor back, and Goedert back played one of the worst games of his career tonight and is a total roller coaster. That was really, really bad and you have Doug being completely reckless with his in-game decisions and playcalls. It's a combustible formula. I support Wentz and hope he can snap out of this, but this is getting bad. 

I think it being the 1st game back for Goedert and Reagor was baby steps.  I didnt think they'd come back tonight and be great.  Hopefully they both stay healthy and get more involved in the offense as the season goes on.  Getting Sanders back will be big too.  He would have offered more tonight than what Scott did.

Can't, he's on the iR

No they don’t.   

I agree with you.  Wind was a factor, but people like to ignore that.

Not that I disagree, but...

He should have had a TD. Wentz didn’t lead him inside where it was nothing but green grass. Maybe the wind took it. 

That was the direction the wind was blowing... which is why it was a bad throw... can't throw the rainbow in blustery conditions like that.

Lol you idiots are blaming the receivers

Ertz can't be traded during the season.

It was wild that people complained about blitzing him. He was making mistakes all over the place. We were bound to finally force a TO.

Yeah I still really like that Hightower has the innate ability to get behind coverage; the offense needs that.

Perhaps, but we can’t say for certain in that moment the wind took it. Could have been a bad throw.

Yup.  4 backups on the OLine and a QB off his game, but the receivers were the problem.

Thank being said, they weren't perfect.  But nothing that can't be fixed.

No.  You need to catch it, if it bounces its a live ball again.

No tee is allowed after a safety.

FYI...that's not true.

Collinsworth really is a hateful POS.  Putting up strength of schedule in remaining games, like DAL has a chance to go on a run or something.  He was almost crying when McLeod returned that fumble for the TD.

Next week is the real test.

If he can't learn to track the ball, then it's a useless skill.  I do like his potential, though.

You hate to have this mentality with a $100 million franchise quarterback, but Wentz's ceiling right now and for this season is as a game-manager. Establishing the run, having him make some of the throws like he had to Fulgham and Reagor tonight, and using his legs to convert some third downs and put you in good spots. After the 2018 Saints game, they talked about how their gameplan was to make Wentz beat them. It sucks to hear that, but that is the mentality and the strategy teams are going to start doing. They really need to ride Sanders and Scott the second half of the season and have Wentz play like he did in the last four games last season. Now the part that I do like about Wentz is that he is clutch and has had clutch drives in the fourth quarter of tight games. I don't have many concerns with him there and I do trust him in those spots. It's the other three quarters with him that drive me mad.

How you figure?

I see a team that with a better Defense hangs with Pittsburgh and they're in First place.

Nobody in the NFC is any good.

Seattle? Nah Packers? Nah Bears? Nah Rams? Nah  Tampa? Nah

 

Uh love the throw to Reagor but why didn't Doug kick a FG to go up 3 scores?

Because of the chance of a blocked kick return for a touchdown. Pretty remote, obviously, but there was no need to tempt fate. Throwing for the endzone was the right call.

Two bad teams do not make a good football game.

Can we get to .500?  The excitement is killing me.

Oh sorry, that's 2 weeks from now.

Can’t ride Sanders cause he can’t stay on the field
