No doubt we kept this crappy dallas team in this. Things pretty much had to go just like this for them to even have a chance

We made this a lot tougher than it should be ....

Rooks QB rating as good as Wentz's lol(yikes)

Division leaders.I have no clue how or why lol

Some thoughts on the game.

Ugly. Wentz was obviously bad, but I think the wind made things super difficult. Still, too many dumb plays.

Mailata seemed to have one horrific snap on the second play and then settled down. The rest of the line seemed to be okay. Dallas does have some talent up front, but we handled them.

I thought Reagor should have caught that touchdown near the end of the game, but he had a few plays. Fulgham though looks like a first rounder. He was the best wr on the field.

On defense, they get graded on a curve, but TJ Edwards and Alex Singleton played well. The team struggled with some of the misdirection, but it's not like they haven't had problems with it all season. I thought it was odd to put Jacquet in the game, but they must like him. Clearly Mills should have been moved to corner.

It was a bizarre night. I had to watch on delay, so I was able to fast forward through most of it, which was nice because I think watching it in real time would have made me sick to my stomach. We have to play better, but I think the talent is there, they just have to get on the same page.

I think it's important to remember that we had a lot of rookies or second year guys in there. You have to be prepared to go through some growing pains. A win is a win and on to the next one in two weeks.

Halfway through the season and leading the division. For 2020, I will take it.

The wind was a factor but does the wind put the ball on the ground not once but twice. 

Sure the wind impacts things but I feel like at this point (and I'm not saying you) that people just want to make excuses for Wentz. Anything to almost let him off the hook. 

What was up with that sleeve on Wentz left elbow? I can’t remember him wearing that before. First time I saw him wear that was the Thur game against the giants. Gotta figure something is up.

He’s obviously been taking a beating. They showed stats of how he has been hit more than any QB in the league.

T.J. Edwards had 13  total tackles, two tackles for loss, one quarterback hit, and one sack where he forced the fumble that led to McLeod’s touchdown. 

I wish some of his tackles weren’t as far downfield but....overall really glad he made it back.

The Slay injury will loom large until we know more

He has to play better, no question about that. I don't think anyone is defending him, since the mistakes he is making are indefensible. I do think the biggest problems right now on offense are the qb and the playcalling, and I am hoping both get better.

A great game for him, but he's always going to look good in a game where the opposing qb can't complete a pass. Certainly though I am happy we get to see what he and Singleton can do together for the next few games.  

Snap counts are out.

On offense, we are clearly going to go with Fulgham, Reagor, Ward and Goedert as our primary skill position players. I would guess once Ertz is back, he will take over the snaps from Ward. I actually think that would be a tough offense to stop.

The oline made it through the whole game. I thought they played well, and it should get better once Lane and Seumalo are healthy. The big decision is who gets benched, but that will be a discussion for another day.

On defense, we finally put our two best LBs on the field together, and they played well. Go figure.

Our secondary seems to be Slay, McLeod and a bunch of faceless guys who are largely interchangeable. I wouldn't mind seeing the team draft a safety and corner with the first two picks next year. Parks had a nice play, and they should start him, move Mills to corner and Maddox to the slot. But that might be the definition of moving deck chairs on the Titanic. If it were me, I would remake the secondary next year with two high draft picks.

Curry, Graham, Sweat and Barnett all played about the same number of snaps. Barnett was the least productive. I think the team should keep bringing back Curry on one year deals until he stops playing well, which could be for three or four more years. Sweat is still on a rookie deal and made a lot of tackles last night. Graham is a beast right now. Barnett? Would we be getting any less out of Avery?

Cox is a beast but he is playing too many snaps. At first glance Williams didn't do much in 16 snaps, so maybe they will add Rush to the roster. They will add someone at DT. 

Biggest issue in last nights game Wentz turnovers that simple. 
1 fumble he just held the ball to long get rid of it dumb. 2nd one was a bit tougher looked to be in midst of trying to throw but LB came in untouched for the sack poor play by the OL on that one

The ints the one to Reagor was a terrible throw and honestly not even sure how the rookie CB got it himself good play on him. 2nd one to Hightower definitely looked like the wind got it in the air.

We have to protect the ball though we are lucky Dallas was a terrible team and had no offense

Well going into this game seems like Mailata was headed to the bench at T isn’t the popular answer just stating what seemed to be the plan.

G is easier Semaulo will go back to LG then guess Herbig goes to RG

Think Barnett is better(a lot) better against the run but in terms of pass rush might be the same

I would actually be okay with Mailata going to the bench since Peters isn't staying healthy all year, so he will be back in soon enough. And Mailata seems fine with moving around. He attitude through all of this has been excellent.

We definitely need a shake up for the secondary I want to see Wallace get more involved at S for some reason I like him actually thought he played alright in the couple games he played... had some good coverage made some tackles just getting the reps and experience now.

CB just need new guys paired with Slay

That is one benefit of him on the bench he can be a swing backup don’t have to do major reshuffling. Whether it’s JP or Lane that misses snaps can just plug Mailata in.

Well good time for a bye hopefully we can get more guys back especially on the OL for the Giants game. Lane will be huge and still haven’t heard anything on Semaulo but have to hope he is getting close as well.

Should also get Sanders back at RB Scott been good but he isn’t Sanders

Trade deadline is tomorrow thinking we see any moves???

Who knows with Howie. The bye is timed nicely for them to bring someone in and bring them up to speed. I'm sure Howie is itching to make a move but I'm not sure that's wise.

IDk Wentz was hurried all night.When he did have time,no one was open,the few times he had time and someone was open,he failed to make the play.Freak plays and counting on the opponents kicking team to keep you in the game,is not a recipe for success to me.We F'd around long enough to let the rook relax.it was more LUCK than decent football IMO.I'm glad Fulgham was on,the rest of the team stunk up the place.Scott was ok,WHEN we decided to use him,which I figured would be most of the night.Nope,why stick to what works??? Stupid me

Sell the team to the Podunk fire dept

We had zero answers for their blitzes.After last night it wouldn't shock me to see Wentz as the worst QB in the league.I stated I am not a fan of moving Mailata to the right side(but whatever).We have a boatload of 6 picks next draft,I would trade them all away for a 4th pick.My top 4 needs are DT,LB,CB(maybe 2) and an additional RB,but we will need more than that.Maybe a pair of lower round S's since we will need to spend higher picks elsewhere."Getting guys back" didn't seem to have any effect at all. Thats sad.Right now Hurts seems totally useless also.I was happy with the WR's even though with Reagors speed I was expecting him to be open more.Not a whole lot of pluses last night.Looks like we'll have to pull a Miami.I thought the LB's DID play better,but still lots of improvement neeed there

Despite their division lead,

@AlbertBreer

says Eagles letting teams know their veterans can be had at trade deadline. (

@dpshow

Sounds like the right move by Eagles sell.... Graham, Malik, Parks, Alshon whoever we can sell to gain capital
