I would very much like to see layered passing concepts. I'm not sure why we're not doing this.

The downfield armstrength is an issue.  

He couldn’t actually follow through…

What happened to Brooks?

Chest, probably a pec strain 

Sounds like an Achilles for Brandon Graham and a pec for Brooks. 

 

Might be the last start we see for either of them as an Eagle. 

Disappointing opening drive... now we get to see if the defense has any juice.

We are on the hook for both for quite a while.

Howie knows what he's doing.

Time for a turnover

Hurts holds the ball too long, and fumbles...  feeds right into the momentum shift...  not what you want to see...

They tried to trade Brooks this past offseason.  This team doesn't care about eating cap when it comes time to move on from a player.

Brooks is off the team next year. We save money by cutting him in 2022.

Pressure was right in his face too.  He needed to secure the ball.  Lucky bounce is why the Eagles aren't up against it again.

They save $3.7M by cutting him.  Take a $15.7M cap hit.   Likely a June 1st designation to push some to 2023.  

Don’t think eagles are gonna pull this One off

 

We need a turnover to flip momentum

Defense needs to come up with a play to stymie the momentum...

 

 

A pec strain is a minor setback. A pec tear is Dickerson is the RG in 2022

I agree with your thought process. That's 100% a Howie move.

Absolutely. I was hoping they may force a fumble on that Jimmy G play.

Ooh knocked the ball out there but they pounced on it.

That's good news.  Well, better than the alternative.

 

 

A blitz!

A blitz!

And a good one!

Very nice play by Nelson...  now it's up to the O to shift things...

 

Defense still seems to be allergic to game-impacting turnovers.
