The run game was moving and the line did it’s job even after Seumalo went down. They made bad decisions (like going for two) and had bad turnovers that killed drives. The Eagles are killing themselves with bad turnovers and costly mistakes. This defense on the other hand can’t get turnovers and are just bad.

Road to Victory Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 If we are horrible this year which looks like strong possibility, Howie and Schwartz will get fired. That’s all I got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They make a couple good plays and then allow a team a new set of downs. Nobody on the defense should be happy right now. We have quite a few guys this year we didn't have last year or didn't play much last year and this group hasn't really come together yet. The leaders should emerge and we can only hope that the unit as a whole responds positively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Malcom Jenkins was that leader and right now they have no one they can look to for that guidance. Slay can’t be that guy, because he just got here and frankly he came from a loser organization. The only person they could turn to is Cox and he’s been just as bad as the rest of the defense.

Lurie loves Howie and he’ll have the whole Covid excuse. i wouldn’t even care if they keep Howie in his current position, just keep him away from the draft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's looking like his "cap genius" status is heading to be knocked down a few pegs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you can’t draft, you rely on free agency which is what the Eagles have done for years. Now, it finally caught up to them - they have very few young, cheap players and no cap space.

You’re not wrong, but some of our biggest contracts are our own homegrown talent like Wentz and Cox. Plus, we originally got Alshon on a decent one year deal that we then extended and reworked into a horrid contract. Either way, we need better decision making in player personnel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we ran the ball well and the OL gave Wentz the time to do whatever, unfortunately he chose the high percentage passes, probably because he's not feeling his intermediate to deep passing accuracy......maybe he'll get that confidence back next week.
