Carson running the ball is one of those unmentioned factors that IMO is part of the answer to the question "whats been wrong with Carson?"

I think they screwed around with his mental process, understandably, to reduce his risk of injury.  But as Carson said, its part of his instinct, and to me, to ask him to fight those instincts has proven unsuccessful.  

Its led--in part--to him scrambling around aimlessly and trying to stay in the pocket, when he has been much more effective just relying on his instinct and making a quick decision to run.  

If it takes him getting "back to basics/instincts" in order for him to turn it around and win games, then I'm all for it.   And I don't see how anyone on the Eagles coaching staff could disagree with that theory (at this point).

The curve hasn't flattened. US averages about 1000 deaths a day, we have about 4 % of the world's population and around 22% of the cases, while other countries with denser population have less cases and deaths per capita, other countries have zero cases.

In 1917 the spanish flu killed more people in it's second wave after people had relaxed, flu season is ahead and with it possible second wave of covid.

Downplaying a virus that has killed over 200,000 americans because one wants to watch football is selfish and irresponsible.

Wear a damn mask, wash your hands social distance. It's not difficult and it's socially responsible!

Not sure Too hill makes it if cut, teams are always looking for pass rushers and he could possibly play in a 34 or a 43,I wouldn't risk a promising pass rusher for curry whom most likely is out of the league next year.

Curry may be a better run defender at this point in his career than some of the other younger DEs on the roster but keeping curry this year over youth weakens the potential future for present minimal gains.

 

Yeah, from the reports it sounds like Toohill has some serious pass rush ability and that's not something you just give up on.  I honestly forget that Curry was even on the team while he's been on IR.  I think you just have to cut bait with an older player, no matter how much they like him as a guy or as an Eagle.

Lets go over some facts....

the curve, told to us in the very beginning, is flat. 

Take out every other countries numbers and our numbers for numerous reasons. 1) countries dont test as much as us. 2) we're the only country that counts covid as cause of death even though it wasnt the main cause. etc etc. 

*THE REAL NUMBER OF TRUE COVID DEATHS* is less then 10,000 last time I checked

Also, having 200,000 people in a country of 350,000,000 people determine what you do, how you do it, your job, your money, your lively hood is the definition of selfish

O! and just a tidbit, even with a pandemic we're on pace to have a lower death count in the country over the last 5 years. People forget that 3 million people die each year. 

 

Buddy, you've said some whoppers in this thread (mostly based on sports, etc) and for the most part a lot of that stuff is opinion based.  So even if it's wrong, most of us just brush it off and move on.

Don't take it to the next level and now pretend to know more about this than:

A.  Your own doctor (If he's among the 99.9999999999% of doctors that take this seriously).

B. Just about every credible expert/scientist on the planet

C.  The NFL

D.  Pretty much anyone else on the planet that isn't a "conspiracy theorist."

I think this is a game we will really lament how banged up we are on offense, because if we were anywhere close to healthy the Eagles would win.  PIT just isn’t that good but I don’t see the Eagles generating enough points 

@In2football

Steelers 20, Eagles 17

Every single one of your numbers is bull crap and you are spreading lies.

 There are 39 countries that have higher testing rates/capita than the US. https://www.factcheck.org/2020/05/testing-by-the-numbers/

As for your covid death numbers,if I were attacked by a bear and died from a punctured lung the cause of death would be punctured lung due to bear attack.https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/09/01/fact-check-cdcs-data-covid-19-deaths-used-misleading-claims/5681686002/

Same goes for covid, if I get covid and my lungs and organs shut down the cause of death is organ failure due to covid.

Eddie van halen just died he had throat cancer And it spread to his other organs,his cause if death was organ failure due to cancer. He gets counted as a cancer death even though ultimately it was multiple organ failure that led to his death.

Pull your head out of your a** and stop parroting what people that don't give a crap about you or anyone are saying about covid and follow the science.

Basing decisions off 200,000, I thought it was only 10,000🤔 it's not just about the  200000

That died it's about keeping the rest of us safe.

As for lower death count than the last 5 years yeah it's called innovation in medicine, fueled by science based data.

If people expended the same energy wearing masks social distancing washing hands and as they do twisting them selves in knots trying to disprove science and come up with conspiracy theories maybe the US wouldnt still have 1000 people a day die from covid while other countries have zero a day.

 

Now that the boards are private and not affiliated with the team, can we make people pass an IQ test to post?

 

Watching Eagles practice stream, they just mentioned the Steelers only have 2 players on IR.  Maybe the Eagles should look to their strength and conditioning team and pry someone away as well as a scout or 2.

You may be surprised by the results. Then again, you may not.

I forgot as well until I read that they had put him on the 21 day IR portal.

I was like oh yeah the eagles resigned curry this year for some odd reason 

The eagles aren't competing for a super bowl this year,sure they had hopes at the time they signed curry but keeping him around now just takes away from other guys like too hill Avery sweat even ostman from developing.

I like the D line rotation right now 4 DEs 4 DTs rotate them all in keep em fresh 

Curry isn't much of a pass rusher so if one wants to play him on run downs whose he replacing, graham barnett? Curry comes in on passing downs every DE he'd replace is a better pass rusher.

Want to move him inside? I'd rather Hargrave or  ridgeway be on the field.

There's no reason curry should be getting any snaps over those 8 guys in my opinion.

You’re suggesting Stoutland can’t recognize talent? He’s the one who worked out Mailata and said he wanted him. He’s also one of the best OL coaches in the NFL. 

I know you get crap for the Steelers stuff, but it really feels like you don’t really follow the team that closely. 

The response you are likely to get is: "Moo".
