Might have to win some games 17 - 13.I keep hearing this from a lot of knowledgeable people. I completely disagree with the premise. In theory, brand new offenses should work really well until the league is able to make adjustments.
July 31Jul 31 The scheme is 25x better but offense always takes the preseason to get up to speed and September is the new NFL preseason for starters.Since Siri has been the coach the offense has pretty much been "Hurts and the pass catchers have to win on talent alone"Now they will have an easy button offense like Purdy has.Purdy is not a top 10 NFL QB but he puts up top 10 numbers because they scheme guys open for him.Love gets guys schemed open for him all day.McVay schemes guys open all the time for Stafford.Siri's offense was closer to Buddy's "go make 5 plays for me" than it was to McVay.When was the last time you heard that Siri was a QB guru or a brilliant play caller or has an offense others want to imitate?The answer is never because he is just a Temu Tony Robbins as a head coach.Hurts behind a good line scared the hell out of the D so the pressure of a running QB made the rest of the offense easier.Watch all-world Fred Warner screwed into the turf on the backside in the 2022 NFCCG because he had to respect the Hurts keeper.Gainwell, Sanders, and Scott were able to run against a 49ers defense without Warner near the ball.That was not true last year because the middle of the O-line was injured or snap-tipping hot garbage and the OTs were hurt or playing hurt.There was nowhere for Saquon or Hurts to run. Tank was able to run over people at times but Patullo was too stupid to use him.AJ was a fraud going at half speed. Calcaterra played as well as pulling a drunk fan from the stands to lead block.

Calcaterra played as well as pulling a drunk fan from the stands to lead block.Summary: Aj sucked. Calcaterra sucked. Siri is no good and lacks qualifications to be a head coach. The future looks bright. Hurts numbers will be at least as good as Purdy's this year.Very Optimistic post.My take, is that offense will struggle. If I am optimistic the first month. If I am being pessimistic at least half the season. The great news is that Defense can and will bail us out...unless other teams make a focus on the running game and run the ball at us. Then defense will get tired and offense will not have time to get into a rhythm. Therefore establishing running game has to be Offense Priority.

I worry that if they keep their normal philosophy of no preseason play, they aren’t going to struggle early out the gate. The defense and coaching are going to have to get them through at least the first month of the season.Yeah I hate the no pre season play. Live reps are the only way to start off better. I can't stand the joint practices being a substitute for games
August 9Aug 9 It always takes 4-6 games in the regular season for a new scheme, whether offense or defense, to start to jell. It's just too complicated to get all the different facets to work smoothly in practice and preseason games. New offenses and defenses need regular season intensity and speed to make all the proper tweeks and adjustments. The eagles are going to win games early in the season with their defense. The offense, hopefully, will develop over 4-6 games.

It really wasn't bad in 2021 either considering the WR situation and that Jalen wasn't as refined at the time. Miles Sanders looked like a pro bowl caliber RB in that offense. After the extension, it was clear the FO mandated that Jalen protect himself more and the offense regressed a bit in 2023. In 2024, the line held up and Barkley was just enough to make up for what Hurts was giving up by protecting himself. In the end, the Jalen Hurts offense earned HC opportunities for two OCs. Last year, the O-line broke down in a big way. We couldn't even make the tush push a topic for the league meetings.Anyway ... we shall see if this offense is "a new one" or not. Based on past expectations for new OCs, I'm not expecting something completely new once it's revealed.Observers so far have felt that things look different. I’m interested to see the new motion concepts and seeing if they’re working to get guys open. Ultimately I agree that one thing will be the same and that’s this team will still be a run first offense. One concept that I do believe will change is that they will be throwing more passes to the backs. I want to see Barkley get some screen passes and get more touches in the pass game. Also without Brown constantly whining for the ball and pouting on the sidelines I expect to see a variety of players getting touches.

Now the D has to guess. Thats what this offense is and why it is the way it is, and why its still in the NFL at all.

If this offense becomes dangerous ... coupled with our defense?? Oh my ...But don't want to get ahead of ourselves here.I think going in to this season if I’m honest I’m tempering my expectations. We have a very very good defense that could absolutely be top 3. It’ll keep us in games if the offense is struggling. And then with the offense I just want to see signs of growth and that things are moving in the right direction. The offense mostly for 2-3 years has not been fun to watch. The run game aside in 2024 it’s just been a struggle to watch.
August 15Aug 15 I feel mostly positive about the offense. My biggest issue is that Lemon is not even able to be a part of it yet.From what I am hearing it also sounds like Stowers has been close to useless so far. It will be interesting to see what he does in preseason games. They have plenty of depth without leaning on these two but I expected much more after draft weekend.

August 16Aug 16 I feel there is a question brewing at the end of this season one way or another. If this offense fails this season, do the Eagles finally stick with the OC or do they once again go with a new guy? The really juicy scenario is what if it succeeds? Do they once again install a new OC and play caller?

Do they once again install a new OC and play caller?That's the question that's never asked, if we had given the 1st year OC's we've had another year, rather than kicking them out, would they have improved with experience? At some point we have to give it a go surely, for all Patullo's faults last year, was anybody going to do a significantly better job with that mess of an interior O Line taking away 60% of our offense? We went from running all over the league with Saquon seeming to break off a couple of 20 yard plus runs every single game to getting swallowed up at the line of scrimmage or behind on 75% of plays.After making such a hoohah about getting Mannion, you kind of think they have to give him a couple of years, or else it all looks a bit silly.
August 16Aug 16 The Eagles just can't help themselves- "Lets hire another OC WHO HAS NEVER CALLED AN NFL PLAY IN HIS LIFE." That is reality. That is real. Everything else is just TALK and HYPE. I had high hopes like everyone else concerning Mannion- even defended him. What I saw last night was a joke- they didn't even try to play football. Unacceptable on EVERY level. And Mannion showed us how to be shut out for and entire game, basically. Great offense there, evil genius.
August 16Aug 16 Nick said in one of his PCs that he was going to talk with the coaches to basically make sure they don't show anything on film. Don't look for the new offense in preseason

Then what? Install another new play caller? How many times are they going to play this game?
