IDK,I wish we could somehow get a whole team together.last year good O line,no weapons for Wentz.This year "iffy" O line even when lane comes back,Wentz has weapons,but can't hit them and we are basically down to 1 RB when Sanders returns.Since 2017,we should have depth out the yingy,yet we don't.WHY?

OH 1 game is HUGE lol,whatever

Hahahahahahhaha yea 1 game can be huge no experience vs experience in a game is pretty big 

Tried to avoid this whole debate but you kept coming. Really don’t care if you agree though as I stated FROM THE VERY START!!!!

Well other than Scott who is a scat back we had noone,and with a makeshift(see crappy) O line,you pretty much need to pass more.Clement was ineffective from what I saw

Not fighting,trying to understand why 1 playoff game makes you immediately experienced

Disagree. With a 17 point lead and a crappy O line you need to shorten the game. Running is the best way to do that. You certainly DON'T become one dimentional

At this point,all I know is 2017 was a FLUKE and alot of LUCK,because since then we are basically back to .500 or slightly above.It's a sad commentary when the team with no name is leading the division lol

Tough to run with a weak O line that the D penetrates on the snap.if we had a basher back I may agree,but Scott isn't that

OL wasn’t great but wasn’t as bad as Wentz made it look either... Doug also didn’t help suit hall the deep throws and lack of running especially up 17...

Wentz tried to put the team on his back,but failed.We could have used the TE's more also(although they did most of the damage)

Anyway losing to a lackluster team and blowing a lead, doesn't set well with me when we face the Rams next week

That’s the problem he was doing to much not taking what was there.... At one point he took a sack he should not have lost 13 yards.... We went from a 40 yard FG for Elliot to a 53 yarder that he missed.

Wentz made Elliott job way harder and 50+ yard FGs are not some easy kick.

1st down taking a 10 yard sack that you could have avoided no excuse for that. 2nd and 10 is way better then 2nd and 20.

Yeah if you read my A/B post,he hasn't progressed a bit

I counted as I stated at least 2-3 sacks that Wentz had no business taking... Read an article that said 4 he could have avoided 

As Joe argued(correctly) with a 17 point lead,you throw the ball away and let your punter pin them back.Going backwards is not much of a game plan lol.And I will say it.Wentz is by far the better QB over Foles,but what Foles was excellent at was "game management".Wentz needs to get a clue and SOON

I am dismayed at the blatant LACK of quality BU players.I understand you have to develop them,but jesus. When you have to rely on old men to come save you,you are not drafting/developing properly.After 2017, we should be LOADED with talent everywhere

Here is my point.I want someone to name QUALITY/game ready BU's behind JP? Lane? Sanders? Kelce? Barnett? We've had 3 years since the SB win and we have ZIP waiting in the wings(you can argue Dillweed,but he has yet to prove to me he can stay in a season).This is pathetic to me

I just hope the cardboard cutouts at the Linc don't start fights in the stands next week

Sweat was pretty good... To be fair Scott was pretty good last year behind Sanders last year as well....

Its hard to have quality 4th-5th stringer though 

Think the ground game was slightly hampered by the OL not holding up

I mean was fine as a rookie at LT when filling in ... This year he tore his bicep it sucks sure but not sure it deserves that much hate lol.

Honestly we have some decent backups the issue is our backups are starting and getting hurt and their backups suck 

Looking on our D yesterday we had our 5th DE playing we had 4th and a PS DT we called up playing.

Had 4th and 5th WRs playing

We had two guys playing on the OL that never played in an actual nfl game.

Crazy how tested our depth has been 

It will be interesting to see what changes we have in store for the Rams.

Things I would change.

Add Burnett to the roster and dump Rodgers. Hightower isn't ready yet. I think he will be a good receiver, but he needs more time. Burnett had a good camp, so give him a try. Play Reagor exclusively at the Z. Bench JJAW. For some reason Wentz doesn't want to throw to him, so get him off the field.

Play Driscoll at guard. Herbig was bad and Pryor has fallen out of favor, so give him a try. I think Mailata is the swing tackle. He was fine when he was in there yesterday, and his size and strength will boost the run game.

Replace Clement with Holyfield. Holyfield was one of he best rated pass protectors in college, and that was a huge problem yesterday.

Dump Avery. He just can't play DE. Give Ostman and Toohill a chance. With Curry out, we may as well see what the other guys have.

I thought the secondary was fine, but Washington is a bad football team. So we will see if they are indeed better. I would make changes at LB, but that isn't happening, so I won't even suggest it.

I don’t see half of this stuff happening... Possibly Driscoll at G image Lane will play vs the Rams. Also like to see Herbig given a chance next to Lane see if that makes a difference any 

Clement was bad but so was the OL blocking up front I don’t put stock in a players pass protection. Skills in college to the pros image Eagles got a sense of Holyfield. Biggest thing with this group getting Sanders back and OL healthy.

Avery he don’t going anywhere yet he is definitely not an every down end though. Could see Ostman called up though depending on injuries.

As for Jjaw and Hightower reps are needed. Bigger question with JJaw for me is he getting open???? Hightower think he got forced into more reps then was expected likely overwhelmed some was his first game but think he will be fine. Burnett getting called up likely depends on Djax health because something was definitely up with him during the game.

Way to early in the season to hit the panic button this is these guys first game action with no preseason and lot of the guys that were playing weren’t suppose to start.

Also even if we dump Rodgers we need. 3rd TE did we make a mistake letting the one UDFA go and land in Indy maybe... But 2 TE sets are a huge portion of our O if we only have 2 guys and 1 goes down we eliminate a massive chunk of our plays and possible game plan

Right now don’t see much changing biggest thing is get healthy... Best thing that can/should happen for LA is getting Lane and Sanders back 

With 4 starters from last year in place should be able to do enough to help protect whoever is at G so it’s not a massive concern 

Still be nice to get a veteran backup OL like Glenn in my eyes someone who can possibly play G and T if need be

If a player is bad, then why do we want to run plays that involve him? I would rather see the team run plays with guys who are good then run plays with guys who are bad. Rodgers had one play yesterday where he was the hot route, and he didn't get to where he needed to be and it lea to a sack. That is just not acceptable.

He had 1 play you just stated it I don’t judge guys on only 1 play... If he is bad I say replace him but we need another TE is my point 

An interesting point made by beat writer Zach Berman. The Eagles had 10 practices after Dillard's injury in which Peters played RG, Pryor played LT and Mailata played RT with the first team. At that point they knew Lane was unlikely to play in the opener. So they basically wasted those practices that could have been used getting the oline ready for the season due to Peters' insistence he get paid more.

What a show of incompetence. A team managed that poorly deserves to lose.

Working out Jordan franks 

So possible change at 3rd TE
