The reaction on here and Twitter was barely a heartbeat for Smith going OOB.

In some respects, Reagor deserves the criticism because of his issues and lack of attention to detail to his job.  It's another mistake, etc etc.  I hardly think WIPs switchboard will be lit up with people reaming Smith out.

People can’t say anything on here.  "Reagor terrible, Reagor no attention to detail, Reagor bad attitude ".

DeVonta Smith’s route was worse.  Reagor had a heel touch chalk.

Sirianni did a much better job scheming the first read open for Hurts.

Hurts did a better job hitting the RB when the first read wasn't there.

The messy plays were when they kept the RB in to block AND the first read wasn't there.  That's when it seemed that Hurts started to get happy feet and looked to escape the pocket.

I don’t.  I’d rather roll the diced on a real QB.  

I’m not convinced there’s one available. 

Fans calling for Sirianni's firing already are dumb af.

He was OC last season in Indy. He just didn’t call plays.  

I thought he was just WR coach.  Well then, he just needs to move down to the college game. 

This schedule and player roster doesn’t do anyone any favors. The great Belicheat probably would be 2-2 with this same team right now. Brutal fing schedule and lack of talent on roster.

Holy F.  That’s what I feared.  The game today just bought Hurts more time.  

He deserves it. Trash the defense, not him. Eagles didnt score 30 points one time last year, have done it twice this year in 4 games. Eagles have given up 40 points twice this year. Only did that 1 time in the 5 seasons before.

Nice parlay...

 

 

Hurts was about a B- today.  Played well overall but made some mistakes that cost the Eagles points, very nearly an INT on a horrible throw and the fumble at the end of the half had Herbig bail him out.  Bad miss to Ertz in the end zone as well.

On the flip side, Sirianni called the game he needed to for maximizing what Hurts brings — throws close to the LOS, he was more accurate to the TE other than the end zone pass.

nick still needs to work on red zone and running game

I thought he did a pretty good job with his limitations on offense.  Probably just coach speak, but I lost a hell of a lot of confidence in him when he said that Hurts played one of the best games he's ever seen from a QB.

You’re right.  He should have never been hired. So no chance those morons will fire him now.  Don’t blame the guy who accepted the job.  Blame the guys who hired him.  

His offense put up 400+ yards with 4 starters down on the OL and a QB who can't throw the ball beyond the LOS consistently to save his life. The gameplans have been fine all year.

Yeah, it's a very weird thing to say. Hopefully just a heat of the moment thing to support his player...

Shame on me for thinking the Lions might win a game today.  They’re gonna push hard for the #1 overall pick 

Let's get something out of the way.  If we are going to acknowledge that Hurts needs to be upgraded as the starting QB for this team and that he is not the future, then we can look at him through a different glass.

If we are still pondering if he is the future QB of this franchise, then his shortcomings, which are apparent every time he steps on the field, are completely unacceptable.

Not a bad thought at all.  He's being tremendously underutilized.  I'm sure having 4 OL starters out has some impact on the running game but 10 carries in 2 weeks is just ridiculous.  

I'd offer him up in a player for player trade to try to get a young defensive player who needs a fresh start.

Yup.  At this point keep it simple in the red zone is the easiest remedy.  Line up and blast it forward.

Yeah.  The plays are there to be made.  So the scheming seems to be solid.

I'd like to see more discipline and maybe some better coaching on technique to eliminate the penalties and enhance execution.

a backer would be a start

He's just saying that to build his confidence.

He seemed to figure it out with the Gainwell TD.  Split out the WRs and make it 7 v 7 at the goal line.  With a running QB, that's a good matchup.

Most new HC's deserve and get a talented, perhaps raw, moldable young QB.  Their futures are tied together.

Siriani is running a goofy smoke and mirrors offense to cover for Hurts.  We don't know if that's the offense he wants or if it would look completely different with completely different results with a passer under center.

I had to duck out for a bit, so I’m sure it’s been covered, but holy hell.

We have to have the worst starting LBs in the league. Wilson and Singleton are terrible.
