IDK why they allow some fans in some stadiums but none in others.The rules should be league wide. if there are say 5,000 people instead of 80,000,that still gives you motivation to play

I mean yeah you're right and I don't get that. The NFL were very clear during lock down that it all had to be fair. That until every state allowed teams back in to their facilities that no team could go back... And yet here we are playing football with different crowds. Makes no sense but I guess is it the owners individual choice at this point? Doesn't seem right to me.

Sad commentary when you can say "at 0-2-1" we can still win this division"(and we can!!! lmfao) Jesus

Thing is... I know mathematically we can... I know our division sucks... But Dallas are a cut above at this point. They've played 3 decent football teams, in fact they've played 1 very very good football team and it was close, a good football team (who beat us down) and it was close and then they beat a high scoring offense. Dallas have a little run now where they can open up a lead in this division. If they take that opportunity then they'll be out of sight in 3 weeks time.

If they don't even give the guys they drafted this year a chance then what was the point in drafting them? I know you want to give these young guys time and you want to develop them but they can't be any worse than the utter dross they are putting out there right now. 

I don't understand Schwartz and Flajole's hard on for Nate Gerry.  He has undoubtedly displayed the poorest level of football from the LB position that I have ever seen (in a defense that is supposed to be able to hide that position).  If they put Taylor in and he starts chasing butterflies around the field, he will still be in a better position to make plays than Gerry.

He ran over the Rams also and dominated the ending stretch of last year as well.... This year he been running strong behind a meh OL and would have had possible TD reception if Wentz didn’t miss him 

GOOD/strong does not qualify as "STUD" imo.We all have our own definitions.I don't look at yards necessarily.I look at how many 3rd and 2's did he convert.How many times did he punch it into the Ez from the 3? Those are studs.The yards will come to those players,but a stud to me is a guy that makes those plays we need to make(and yes Sanders has a few of those).Your definition may differ

but he did some damage and thats enough for me to say don;t write him off as a has been quite yet

Never said write him off lol just said he isn’t Barkley huge difference between the two guys.... I thought Freeman was a good RB in ATL but biggest thing for me with him now is still health can he show he is healthy not even concerned with him learning the O that will happen in time

Sure it's possible,but we need to start making a move soon,and I fear we don't have the caliber of players on the field to do it. We have some 3rd and 4th stringers.There bis a reason they aren't starters,so we really can't expect them to play like starters.So,IDK it's frustration city for me again

They force feed him the ball.if you remember they had some "ok" WR's in Atlanta,the gnats,not so much,so of course his numbers will be padded(maybe we should try that with Sanders?)

Those are great and all of your team runs them in those situations lol.... On top of the fact Howard was the starter half the year and taking short yardage and goal line carries....

He also had 6 TDS as a rookie 3 rushing and 3 receiving. So yes I also look at a ton of things when judging a RB and all signs point to Sanders being a stud.

He was every bit as good as Jacobs last year if not better and don’t want to hear well Jocasta got hurt excuse either because A. Sanders missed time as well and was the backup had the year while Jocabs started

Sad to say it,but the game comeback from Dullaz will go down as a classic.In contrast,we blow 17 point leads.not good

Mmmmm if anything those WRs made Freeman’s job way easier.... Barkley was facing stacked boxes and was still a stud

So how many rushing TD's from Sanders this year?

Nah,the gnats WR's are better than ours,so not buying that. Although they have no STUD WR's all 3 are capable.Noone I have seen is stacking the box

IDK it's 9 months out,but I will say now if we are in a position to get Parsons and we pass,we are the dumbest team in the league and we deserve what we get

3rd Place, NFC East (0-2-1)

Record

0-2-1

Predictive rank

#24

Streak

T1

Projected to be 24th in the league.This is a far cry removed from a SB in 3 years.it's early we can turn this around,but I have no clue how until we get most of our guys back

Meanwhile Frank Reich has the Colts playing great ball with an "over the hill "QB.I'm happy for him,but we can see how much he meant to this team

1 in two games lol

What lol what does Freeman in ATL have to do with Barkley in NY????? Barkley faced a stacked box Freeman in ATL didn’t that was the debate now you changing it 

All I know is Sanders broke the franchise record for scrimmage yards Only being the starter for half the year.

had 1327 yards last year(rushing/receiving) to go with 6 tds(3&3)

So far this year in 2 games has 190 yards rushing and a TD avg. 5 yards a carry 

Hightower is only out with an illness, so I think there is a pretty good chance he will play Sunday.

The reality is that, regardless of the team's injury situation, Hightower and Ward are likely to be two of the team's top three receivers (along with Reagor) after this year, since DJax and Jeffery aren't going to be here. So we may as well get used to the idea of them being key parts of the offense.

I would not sleep on Watkins wouldn’t be shocked if he pushes to be a starter

The only reason I didn't include Watkins is because we haven't seen him in action yet, so he is still somewhat of an unknown. We have seen Ward, Hightower and Reagor, and all signs are pointing to them being legit NFL wide receivers. Hopefully Watkins will show that as well when he gets on the field.
