You can't get near these damn receivers to make a play on the ball consistently enough. Which is why QBs throw 30 touchdowns and have 5-10 picks. That used to be unheard of and Donavon even set a record at one point for the touchdown to interception ratio. Now it's pretty standard. Unless your name is Jamies I eat W's for dinner Winston. Idk having 0 is bad. Even the Cowboys have 6 through 2 games. Some of thats just luck but there’s at least 4 which were just good plays and making plays. This screams more that the eagles just really don’t have very good playmakers in their back 7. Slay isn’t the playmaker he was 3-4 years ago. Harris isn’t. Wallace is inexperienced. And Nelson is a solid corner not sure he’s a big time playmaker. Linebackers don’t get me started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Fran has a good defense Hurts didn't play well yesterday but he's still developing. Siri didn't do him any favors down in the red zone. Reagor needs to be more aware Our Defense played very well. Some of us think PFF is ridiculous and some of us don't. We play the Cowboys on Monday night I really, really, don't want to lose that one.

Half the defenses have forced at least 3 turnovers through two weeks. Dallas defense has 6. We are one of the 3 teams with none, along with Jacksonville and Green Bay, and I am sure Green Bay will correct that tonight. So it will be us and the Jags with none.

LeanMeanGM Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Odd there hasn't been an update on Brooks. With it being so quiet and the fact that a trainer was holding his arm to immobilize it as he walked to the locker room makes me think its bad. And why doesn't Sirianni do pressers the day after?

And this has been an issue for way too long now. But hey its not surprising when we use a lack of premium picks on the DBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have had 3 turnovers yesterday. Harris and I think Nelson both dropped ints and the fumble recovery got negated by a personal foul. The opportunities are there but they need to start capitalizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was disappointed that our Dline didn't do more before BG was injured. That used to be our strength. I think there was once again a few 'almost picks' yesterday. Maybe later on it'll turn into actual picks more often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again that's 2 weeks when play is always sloppy. See how many turnovers or interceptions are thrown by the end of the season. I'm willing to bet as a whole they are down from years ago.

We lost, so I guess that is all that matters to most people. Take away the Watkins play, he does not even throw for 100 yards. He completed 52% of his passes. He led the team to 3 points before the game was decided. He under threw multiple receivers, and still is not completing any passes in the middle of the field. He completed 4 passes in the entire second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike31mt Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Wasnt the point made last week that the direction of NFL passing is going towards the "layups and three pointer" line of thinking? Sirianni was right on the money after the game that it is likely a vastly different scenario if we go up 10-0. We're still figuring things out. We dont need to throw over the middle or intermediate just to do it. We need to run the ball well and develop stuff off of that. We need to give Smith, Goedert, Ertz easy win routes to get Hurts some momentum. We scored 30+ in week 1 by keeping things simple and just executing. Thats how the 2021 Eagles can win, not by trying things we know we cant do consistently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to be a grump but does anyone really care? I see all these next gen stats and I shrug. It's not a tangible stat. I don't care that Quez Watkins was running 21 mph. He still got caught. This applies to all sports. No one asked for these stats and we are force fed them like they really mean something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
