I will never forget that MNF debacle Barkley drops a pass that could’ve closed out the game or at least run clock. And then cousins just went down the field in like 60 seconds and scored the GW td after the defense had him in check most of the game.

I think the difference is at least that team looked competent and able to win games. This one looks lost and lacks fire and effort.

Why oh why do we have to be the 1pm slot on Sunday? I don’t want to watch this team again this week.

Subjectively, there was some improvement from the OL I’ll give you that. There was success running left. There were still pocket breakdowns due to interior pressure more than we should see. I remember 2 whiffs each from Jurgens and Steen.

We also have a QB that refuses to step up or use a pocket. I think film review will be a bit more kind to the OL than some are giving them credit for.

Seems to be a trend. Hold the ball, run into a sack, rinse and repeat.

I got to say, this was a huge faceplant from Mannion. The 2nd half was bad. Play selection, not having a feel for the game. We should be able to dink and dunk if all else fails, but at least that moves the chains.

Just some random things I want to yell about on the internet…

  • Sirianni still sucks at game management. The end of the first half was rough, and the draw them offsides thing when the game was slipping away shows he has no finger in the pulse.

  • Ojomo needs to stop pressing for a bigger contract. Jumping on fourth down was so dumb. He didn’t twice but was fortunate to get away with it.

  • DeJean has been so ordinary. It was stunning to see him have a busted coverage (I assume it was him).

  • Campbell and Mukuba look worse this year.

  • Hurts obviously stunk and I wonder if he is the culprit for that dope screen to Smith before the half. The first near pick by Edwards was just a great disguise by him. The actual pick was Hurts deciding not to read the defense and throw to Smith no matter what.

  • Get Dalton off my damn football team. He’s a bum.

  • The OL showed signs of life. Steen’s hold negating a nice Barkley run was infuriating though.

He hasn't earned ish. Every year he didn't have a competent OC (by his own design because he keeps hiring his buddies) the team has looked like dog crap. He does nothing and brings nothing.

Look at his record. He's been to two super bowls, nearly won the first. Took Reid and Patty's heart just two years ago. Won the division last year. Lurie isn't making that move man, at least I don't think. We'd have to go 5 and 12 or worse for it to even come into play with Lurie I think.

Cool. Glad you realize this after the fact.

That pass to Smith at the half was moronic. It was the only reason they got 7 points and weren’t shut out…and yet, 9 times out of 10 that decision costs them a FG and the clock expires at the half.

3 and out - punt

3 and out - punt

3 and out - punt

1 first down - INT

After 2 turnovers in the first half. Run game showed up for 1 drive and pass game showed up for another. Nothing outside of that. 7 total points.

Doesn't matter if the D was playing good, let alone crapping the bed like they did today but we just aren't winning many games in this league with that production out of the O, Dejavu from last year,

It’s not your fault you’re washed up. You shouldn’t even be on the team.

Jalyx Hunt & Nolan Smith have both underwhelmed

On the bright side, not one player has gotten harder to extend in the offseason.

We can take some solace in the fact that it wouldn't have mattered. They were losing this game

I saw some concerning looks on the faces of Mitchell and Baun….someone needs to step in and be a leader….not just a talker but a leader that players listen to. I haven’t seen a Fangio defense get this embarrassed, just sickening to watch

Given the quick game that Bears were using, I’m surprised Vic didn’t switch up to man coverage (perhaps that’s what that blown coverage was about) as the soft C3/C4 was giving Keenum reads to work off of presnap.

As I’ve been saying, THE OFFENSE IS THE PROBLEM.

It’s been the problem since the Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs.

we all know the offense isn’t good. There’s no reason for the defense to be merely as bad as it’s been. Titans have been god awful on offense all year. The one game they look like a competent offense with the Philadelphia Eagles game. Even the Giants defense made that offense look horrific. Cam Ward has been atrocious outside of the eagles game.

These show the defense is also crap.

Remember that time you all thought running back the same offense minus AJ Brown with a new OC and a still older OL was going to net vast improvement?

Still might.

Smith, Wicks, and Lemon look good. QB doesn't though.

OL may be improving.

We are getting there. Bottleneck still gonna be QB. Even he has 1 drive per game that gets you excited.

You think Saquon just decided to suck? Has nothing to do with the defense not being afraid of Hurts whatsoever and just keying on Saquon?

He is one of the softest players on the team. Sadly...

Even though I hated the pick, the negative plays aren’t actually his fault.

That said, on any given week, the over/under on negative yardage plays for Lemon needs to be set at 1.5….maybe 2.

Q Mitchell has been as good as advertised especially with the complete lack of pressure from the DL

I miss Dean and wanted the Eagles to keep him(and frankly, never loved the Campbell pick given I'm not a fan of drafting non premium positions in round 1), but I already can't handle blaming missing Nakobe Dean on the defense sucking that I'm seeing all over social media.

If your defense can't handle one Fing player being missing, and a off-ball linebacker at that... then you have bigger issues.

Oh, and Dean wasn't even on the field for SB59 and that was maybe the best defensive performance in Eagles history. It's a lame excuse, I'm sorry. Highly paid guys are underperforming and that's a way bigger problem. And Howie decided to shell out 24m per year for Jordan Davis off one good season when up until last season there was a question if they'd even pick up his option.

I take no solace in my coach still not understanding basic game management after this many years. It’s not like he has much else to do throughout the week.

He did switch to man cov. It was getting cooked all night. Wide open players everywhere. Mostly the guys makuba and Campbell were guarding were wide tf open all night

I think we all knew that was coming. I never really saw the Campbell hype but they weren’t gonna pay Dean.

I liked Campbell coming out of Bama. He is not looking like anything I thought he would've brought to the table, yet. To be fair he has been hurt a ton and is definitely far behind the learning curve. He's going to need to play in order to get the experience needed, problem is it's costing us. They weren't paying Dean which just is terrible luck for us that he completely broke out and looked so good.

1st and 2nd round picks right there no less. Not like it was 5th and 6th rounders.

Having Dean would have made zero difference in that game
