Didn’t he throw to the middle last week?

When he had a 50% completion percentage? Yeah, he did once or twice. 

The Colts are going to beat the depleted 49ers. Hopefully the Falcons beat a Miami team that's ready to quit.

I would like to be optimistic about this week.  I just don't think the extra 3 days have helped Sirianni learn how to coach or to fix Jalen's mechanics. That being said, there will be a lot of Eagles fans at the game so that might help the team.  @LeanMeanGM my prediction is:

Eagles 21 Raiders 27, Miles Sanders gains 73 yards on 16 carries. An Eagles' fan in shoulder pads is shown in a split screen view next to a Raiders' fan. People propose that we trade for Derek Carr next season after the Raiders sign Rodgers.  Slay gets an INT and Renfrow gets a TD.

Myself and a couple of others have brought up Carr in recent weeks.  One more season under contract at about a $22M cap hit.  I think with Gruden being gone the odds are much higher of the Raiders keeping him.  I think Gruden would have tried hard to make the splash you're referring to to bring a big name QB in for more attention to LV football.

Not that I'm pushing for Carr -- I just doubt there is any way the big 3 of Watson, Wilson, or Rodgers comes to Philly, and with a sketchy draft class at QB Lowie might consider "going halfway" at the QB position for one year and see what happens.

As the history went last year, temp HCs were 3-0 in the first game after they took over, but were 0-3 in the week after.  The Raiders also have some injuries too.

unless the blank somehow had live ammo in it, wouldn't you have to be point blank to kill someone?

Even point blank a bank won't kill someone

It’s pretty sad when the big question is will we finally run the ball in week 7

I picked the Colts.  I am running 73% picking games straight up this year, so, looking good.

I can tell you what the answer is now, if you'd like to know.

I’m curious to see if Hurts and Flacco were hurt and Ward had to play emergency QB what the run pass ratio would be.

 A few times, but thru 6 games he has the fewest attempts and completions between the hashes by a ton.   
 Besides his coach not helping him with running the ball, since Hurts bails clean pockets way to soon, he bails them to his throwing hand, so over the middle is now across his body.

They’d have to borrow footballs from the opponent because too many passes would be taken home by fans 

@LeanMeanGM  28-19 Eagles, please.  Bonus predictions 1) We have 20 designed runs by those guys that carry the ball.  2) Hurts takes 7 snaps under center.

The Colts need to look competitive heading into game 12 and Wentz needs to stay healthy.   Then they can lose every game after that for us.  

Heading into game 13.  12 games out of 17 probably won't be enough.  Wentz needs to play game 13.

Which means that the Colts need to be competitive after 12 games.

There is a good chance that the Titans will be 7-5 and the Colts 5-7.

I doubt they bench Wentz with 5 games (Hou, NE, Arz, LV, Jax) left at that point.

What I’ve been saying if they are 5-7 after those Bucs and bills games they still have a shot at 9-8 which might actually get them the 7th seed/wild card. I actually think the next two games is rather big for the colts playoff chances. I think they need at worse a split with the niners and titans and then take care of business with the jets and jags. 

Now I’m getting worse feelings on my guy Kenny Pickett, I’m 6’1”, old  plumber with gnarled hands and fingers but even I measure 9 1/2” thumb to pinky, and I hate trying to throw an NFL ball.  No way his hands are only 8 1/4”!!   Gotta be misprint or measured when he was 12.  

4.0 GPA opinion. 

Off topic , Scottie Barnes is a stud  , what a steal .

@LeanMeanGM

Eagles 20

Raiders 24

 

Darren Waller 100 yards+ TD.

Hard to disagree with Waller having a big big day given the LBs on this team.

@LeanMeanGM 

Raiders 27 

Eagles 23 

Bonus: Sanders with 65+ on the ground.

Now I know why I have trouble gripping a football.   Max thumb to pinky is 8.25" and realistically, more like 7.5".   Would be happy if the little guy had those stats.

Tom Brady has 9.38” hands… just deflate the ball a bit for better grip👌 Mike Vick has one of the best arms I’ve seen but small hands relative to NFL QBs, Carson Wentz has big hands but is a fumbling machine🤷
