They’ve always wanted to do it and now they have an excuse. I agree they should keep it going. Wednesday afternoon football last week was a nice surprise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well currently if we lose out we finish last place in the entire NFC. Forget the NFC East. There are only 2 teams in the NFC with only 3 wins. Us and the cowboys. Gonna be a tight finish :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtfcares Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 36 minutes ago, Alphagrand said: Yeah, I’ve tried to tone down the Doug-bashing today because I’ve been a broken record on it — but this was the easiest game all season to game plan for. The Eagles went into Lambeau just last season as a 1-3 team playing against a 3-0 Packers team and got a victory by bludgeoning them with the run. Sanders and Howard had a combined 26 carries for 159 yards and 2 TD. Doug could have gone home to his family every day by 2pm this past week, the game plan should have been so obvious. Every loss the Packers have this season is because the opponent has bludgeoned them with the run. Instead, he did what he always does — what he wants to do, even when what’s happening on the field isn’t working. QB struggling, OL can’t pass protect, let’s pass and pass and pass some more Not to mention they started the game running the ball. IT WAS WORKING. We moved the ball down the field first drive, ate the clock keeping the ball out of Rodgers hands, and got the first lead we’ve had in 4 weeks. They ran the ball 7 times the first drive. Then followed that up by abandoning it and only ran the ball a total of 10 times for the rest of the game... Doug just can’t help himself. Regardless who’s playing, how the game is going, who were playing the man just has to be pass happy. He needs to go first before anyone else.

The lack of snaps/touches for Sanders is nothing short of a travesty. He’s by far our best weapon. There’s absolutely no reason for Scott to be out there are much as he is.

ManuManu Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I think the Eagles need swap McLeod and Wallace. The book on Wallace is that he’s worse the farther he gets away from the football. Not sure why Schwartz decided to play him deep and bring McLeod into the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoop Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 24 minutes ago, e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! said: Giants and Washington in the same week beating the 11-0 Steelers and 8-4 Seahawks. Kind figured if Alex Smith could just get back to something close to what he was prior to the injury that they would be competitive with their defense. He’s not a bad quarterback. At least before his injury he wasn’t a bad quarterback. He just wasn’t great. He was good just not good enough to get good teams over the hump. I see you need to hit a certain amount of words in your essay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he hasn’t been very good at it this year compared to what he was last year. However Boston Scott has not been much better at it. He had two plays in that game yesterday where he just completely missed his assignment and the guy went right by him and nailed the quarterback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I just said the same thing about his blitz pick ups. However if that’s the case Boston Scott has been as bad. One of the reasons why I think they brought in Jordan Howard is they trust him in pass protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the personnel decisions made by this team this entire season, I am surprised Schwartz didn't isolate Hargrave on Davante Adams with no safety help.
