OH aka "padded stats" which Hurts can't possibly have with the defense giving him 14 more opportunities to stat pad . False reading on defense,yet Hurts TOTAL prowess on offense. Spin spin spin lol

hey don’t run much in the second half. We make them one dimensional.

Yes,that's why Pierce got 138 rushing yards, because we made them 1 dimensional  😆

We look better than we are because our D is playing with the lead.

And who makes the plays to get the offense the ball 14 more times than normal? That would be the defense giving Hurts 14 more scoring chances. If we're playing  H O R S E and I give you 14 more shots than me who wins? If I'm a hockey goalie and the other team gets 14 more shots on goal who wins? Thanks for making my point

Ham is making judgments to back his opinions, not facts. Therefore he seems to think we are way off base. Whatever floats his boat.

Evidently we got away with one. Kelce pulled Gainwell ahead along the right sideline which is illegal. The NFL actually sent a memorandum out last wk. All the refs had to say was they haven't seen that called in 30  yrs. I actually didn't know that was illegal and was giving Kelce kudos for being so far downfield and making that play.

Teams have gone away from what works because we put the pressure on by having the lead. That’s why your rushing yards allowed is a false reading. Teams aren’t passing running stats at the end down. Their gashing is early…hard. Then we score in the second and they don’t run much in the second half. We make them one dimensional. Our D doesn’t stop the run. Our O does. We get them one dimensional and then….oh surprise…interceptions happen….sacks happen. So much easier to play D when you know their going to pass….especially when you can’t stop the run. Really probably really blowing up our pass D numbers. We look better than we are because our D is playing with the lead. But if we can’t stop the run and don’t have the lead what happens? Then we gotta overplay the run to try and do something about it. Pass D won’t look near as good.

We haven't scored every 1st drive have we?   The Dream Team D couldn't stop anyone.   You see that shutting down Minnesota?

It's not close, it's not comparable in any way.  Move on.  The more you talk the worse it gets for you.

IDK that ref crew last night should have been fired after the game,just awful. How many challenges were upheld/calls reversed? I think every one.How can you make that many bad calls in 1 game?

Hard to float your boat when you're bailing with a Dixie Cup

Trent Dilfer carried the Ravens D...  Spin it Ham....I want to hear this one.

I'm pretty happy,I won the Kenyan lottery 5 times just THIS week!!!! 🤣

Drafted a run stuffer….yet 29th against the run. Not good. Not good at all. If you can understand the numbers. Try your eyes.

UM first few games he played like 10 snaps a game? We were working him in because he was a ROOKIE? 3.89 YPC with, 6+ without, but there is no difference? Obviously worse without him,that S would be killin it by now

When the Eagles become 10-0 we need to consider if they  can get home field through out. That would be a huge advantage and possibly send them to the SB. The path is fairly easy for the remainder of the season. While no game is an easy one, the odds are in their favor to go undefeated until they meet Dallas late DEcember....

IDK think we are already there?? I mean we'd have to lose 2 games and everyone else win out to tie us? Maybe we'd lose 2 but I doubt the others can win out

3.89 YPC with Davis, 6+ without. That was as of the 3rd 1/4 last night. We should have taken that S dammit!!!!

Heck yeah should have taken that S. Did you see Wallace in the game giving up the plays. That guy isn’t looking good at all. He’s just a body.

The Eagles’ schedule has not been grueling (27th-ranked defense), but their entire schedule is a relative cakewalk. Nevertheless, there is something to be said about taking care of business.

Buffalo lost to a quality Dolphins team, but the Chiefs lost to the directionless Colts team. The Eagles are a more complete offense than any in the NFL.       PFN

Then no Davis,you keep missing the point and I'm NOT going through this AGAIN

Of the 15 tight ends with at least 32 targets, only Tyler Higbee has a lower aDOT than Dallas Goedert. Goedert’s four-yard aDOT is low, but his 10.1 yards after the catch is the highest in the league out of all tight ends and wide receivers.   PFN. Yep YAC just as I said(lol)

aDOT=average depth of target

Remember back when I said "4 yard throws with 8 yard YAC?" Turns out I was wrong, it's 10.1 lol. No stat padding going on here anywhere 🤣.But I'm just an old HATER, NON fan who needs medication 😆

BTW the article did praise Hurts and there are any things to praise now. But they also said exactly the same things we all did(sans Ham) that they were waiting to see if Hurts progressed and he HAS done so. They must be haters too cause, they needed to see things like the rest of us before crowning him King of Philly. Now, let's get him through the remainder of the season without injury

Mailata didn't look good yeaterday

Was it just the speed rush or is that shoulder worse than we're being led to believe.

Welp, So much for comparing Michael Thomas to our WR's. I said I did not trust him to do well. He has 171 total yards and is out for the season.

I agree because the process that I go through is eliminating teams.    Like I said 11 teams in the NFC already have at least 4 losses and Seattle has 3.  

It's easy to see the path has 3 teams in the way... Dallas, NYG and Minnesota.  

Winning the division pretty much clinches a top 2 seed.    Minnesota, Dallas and NYG all play each other one more time.  Someone has to lose, or maybe a tie is better?  Minnesota still plays Buffalo.   

In 3 weeks we may clinch a playoff spot,  we may even clinch being ahead of every non division opponent shortly after.   Ironically it might be the division that is last thing we could clinch.

But the rushing yards don't concern you without Davis?   The over 2 yards difference isn't an issue? You don't see his impact?

Yep.. the unknown is now known.  He can't help now.   Saints will need players to step up to make our pick worse.
