"My complaint was Hurts not running when he had a wide open lane outside to get a 1st down on 3rd and 2... instead he throws for the end zone and then we miss 4th down.   I say take the easy 1st down to keep the ball on 3rd down."

I'm under the impression Hurts is being directed not to run as often - something most of us were concerned with last season. Noticed fewer designed runs, not that I'd want one by the new OC - guy can't design sh**. Hurts has run on his own when taking it on his back this yr, simply his natural competitiveness which he'll always revert to.

I must be watching a different game... I saw domination . 25 points on the road in bad weather vs a pretty good defense and DC.   One punt.

Other than that ... he hung in the pocket and threw a dime to Zach... managed the game well.... with the flu.

I could also complain they let Tampa score too easily on a night they were dominating them.  

They were eating clock running the ball... winning by 14 and killing the last 4 minutes ..I'll take that every week.

Move on to Washington... good luck running it on us now that we upgraded big time from Hargrave. 

I thought it was sloppy,with some skill and luck thrown in

This one was where it was a rollout,nobody was near him...just run to the sideline and take the free 1st down.    No hit would have been taken.

Do you usually see smooth play during rain?

It was sloppy before the rain

I guess Only Eagles had the flu. Noone said they had the flu pre game that was a post game excuse?

Such poor design there...

Yeah,once again the OC had to go away from his 5 plays he knows and turn Hurts loose. The first 1/4 and 1/2 the play calls were horrendous

I mean... the weather changed here locally from like 90 to 60 ish....is it surprising that anything could be brought from Philly.   I thought that was common sense,  usually a virus takes a couple days to show the symptoms right?

It fires up when that warm to cold hits in fall. People dress for the warmth, maybe shorts and a T,but don't cover up fast enough and they get chilled especially if they get caught in rain

Yet they didn't mention anyone having the flu pre game,it was all post game,or a very odd coincidence

Be nice to know who has the flu before fantasy games also 😊

My complaint was he should have ran the ball... a few of his passes you sew him through a little high or to the side to avoid the DL arm... Swift cut when he wasn't..AJ should have made a couple of catches that a #1 WR makes.  

277 yards where it wasn't much of the garbage yards Ham used to brag about...that Tampa D is good,especially at home. 

We ran out the last 9:22.   I'm not going to be arrogant enough to complain about the 25-11 win in this circumstance.  

We had a joke of a schedule last year...it's made our fanbase expect total annihilation every time out now.. that's not realistic.  New England and Tampa this year could have easily been the 3rd and 4th most difficult games last year other than the 2 vs Dallas.

Last year results is just not realistic.   Take the absolute physical dominant 2 TD win and move on.   277 yards without basically throwing in the 4th quarter... that's a good floor.  Especially in the context of last night's game.

Anyway 3-0 is still 3-0. I guess week 4 everyone playing will have a the flu

My complaint was the simpleton OC pass play calling. We have 2 top WR's,you can't call straight run routes for 1/4 and 1/2. They are best at CUT type routes. The TD pass to Zach was alot of luck,could easily have been picked. There was very little WR stats or even stats from Goedert. it's a shame to me to waste receivers running stupid boring go routes when both have a complex route tree. Swift>Sanders. the D looked fine,this O is supposed to be a top notch unit and it's not,even though most have played together. The OC needs to watch the last 2 years games

How was your week...  idk, every NFC East opponent lost, the Saints lost to help our 2nd round pick....we won on the road by 14 and killed the last 9:22 vs a stud run D.

But but but....  and let's not forget to complain about the logo too.  

For a fanbase that saw decades of awful football and waited 57 years for a championship...  life is real tough right now because we don't win 70-0.   Hopefully better days ahead.  Such a tough life.

It's philly......as Mike Schmidt said:

"only in philly can you experience the thrill of victory and the agony of reading about it the next day"

No quote epitomizes philly fans and media better than that.....
