NCiggles Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 15 minutes ago, Dawkins 20 said: The Giants panicked hard when the Eagles jumped them for Devonta. They took an obvious trade-down package from the Bears and by the time it got back around to their pick at #20 they still didn't have a plan in place. These are the scenarios you're supposed to have prepared for leading up to the draft and it's pretty clear Gettleman and company had no clue what they were doing. Given the lack of depth on the o-line and talent at DE there were about 10 other players they could have picked that would have been much better.

If he did not, there would not be the 2nd kick to win the game. Reservations for 3 please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Officials can call it on probably 80/90% of plays. Also why is defensive holding 5 yards while offensive is 10? Kind of odd since all rule changes being made cater towards the offense. Either way, there’s way too many penalties in the game as a whole. 5 yards and an automatic first down. That penalty is OP in favor of the offense.

Godfather Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I feel really good going into Sunday as home dogs. I think it'll be a physical game with the Eagles making more plays on offense to win. 49ers dline is banged up and their CBs are depleted. I feel like our WRs will have a big game and hopefully Hurts continues to improve and build off last week. Our dline will reek havoc and the secondary comes up big with a game sealing int Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original Sin Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I think we might need more than 2 games before passing judgment on Toney didn’t he miss time during preseason with a injury , and COVID protocol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEFly Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 2 hours ago, RLC said: Kadarius Toney was drafted 20 overall. He had 2 catches for -2 yards in first 2 games. Jalen Reagor was drafted 21 overall. He had 5 catches for 96 yards in first 2 games. It can always be worse. Toney strikes me as a gadget. Eagles drafted Gainwell in the fifth. He has the potential to be better than Toney. It is a bit like Curtis Samuel. Not quite a RB, not quite a WR. I would want a Pollard or better, a Gibson. Good as a RB and pretty good as a receiver too. Gainwell has that potential and to some degree so does Scott. Now whether Toney can achieve that, especially with Garrett as OC, is a bit of a question. Toney looks like a great example of a player the coach is trying to jam in his scheme and not a coach identifying what a player does best and designing plays where the player will succeed.

HazletonEagle Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 I think Toney can potentially be a full time RB. But even as a slot WR he might be good on a different team. Theres probably a good chance he busts in a Jason Garrett offense. Garrett already had Tavon Austin and couldnt figure out how to use him successfully. Toney is in a poor situation.

Assuming they get all three, of course. For me it has to be DE, LB/S and CB. Our LB group is razor thin, but our safeties moving forward look pretty bad too. Either way, three young (and hopefully very good) players on the defense does wonders for this franchise. its a great corner class coming up. need one of the top ones for sure. DE seems next on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDGE and CB would be almost a given; if they use all 3 instead of trading out I would guess BPA. I know there are a few 1st round WR @4for4EaglesNest has been scouting.

DEagle7 Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Justin Jefferson only had 5 receptions for 70 yards combined his first 2 games in the league. I think Toney was a bad pick too. Like Pitts a lot but question taking him that high. But still maybe we need to give them a smidge more time before labeling them anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austinfan Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Watching Wash/NYG, I realized the Eagles have the best HC in the division. Eagles just looked more prepared in their first game on the road than these two teams. Jones sucks, first rate athlete at QB, size/speed combo, the strong arm some here think is the be all and end all, but he just doesn't process information quickly. And that's the kiss of death for a pro QB. He's in his 3rd season, so the "inexperience" excuse no longer applies. Heinicke is a backup QB period, people complain about Hurt's arm, well, this is what a weak armed QB looks like - but he was accurate and generally decisive, which is what you expect from a QB in his 5th pro season. But anything past 20 yards floated. Which tells you how bad the WFT secondary was, they were consistently beat in man and late to the ball in zone. Nor did the WFT DL overwhelm me, I expect more from 4 1st rd picks. Thought Allen was the best of the group. What's all the hype with Young? Against a makeshift Giant OL, they were too inconsistent. And the WFT OL? Scherff at RG and four guys who would struggle to make our roster. If the Eagles can beat Dallas, they can take this division, which may explain why Howie has kept all those veteran linemen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are coming off a win against one of the 3 worst teams in football. Lets get through a 49er team with a whole lot more offensive fire power before we start crowning anyone. 2 minutes ago, LeanMeanGM said: Alright all you second cousins, get your predictions in.
