If Watson was our QB, how do we fix this defense moving forward with fewer draft picks and less cap space?

All I'm saying is if he was our QB today we'd be 3-1 and a very very good chance of making the SB next year. I'm still waiting on someone to give me a powerhouse NFC contender we couldn't beat this year with better QB play. Hint....no other team has a good defense so far...

Schwartz wouldn't have done any better today.

I didn't say he would. I replied to a guy saying Schwartz made adjustments. He didn't.

The opponents' prestige has nothing to do with it. 

I'm not going to sit here and argue that Watson isn't the better QB at this point in his career, but the Chiefs are now only 2-2 with one of the NFL's best QBs and best rosters. The pretend 3-1 conclusion is still fiction. 

NO to Watson. Sexualt assault accusations, disgruntled, drama, distractions. No.

Yes we had chances we had 2 TD's wiped for crap penalties, we had two catchable balls dropped in the end zone, we had a beautiful pass dropped down the chimney to Smith for the best TD I've seen from the Eagles receivers for 3 Years wiped because Smith stepped out of bounds (he was forced out and it's a crap rule, WTF does it matter if you're out of bounds before receiving the ball honestly how is it unfair) Deshaun Watson isn't saving any of those outside maybe the drops.

Also the O Line couldn't hold a pocket the 4th quarter, Watson doesn't fix that either.

Hurts had a terrible game last week absolutely, but he deserved better Today and people saying Today is on him honestly made their mind up on QB before the season started.

Please elaborate on the 2 "dropped" TD passes in the endzone today. I think we saw 2 different games today because I saw Eartz and Ward wide tf open only to have ducks sailing past them. I believe they were on the same drives you say ended due to penalties. Oh and Siri is another issue with his stupid penalty laden play designs.

Better QB play for us and we're 3-1 despite the inept and clueless Siri. He needs to learn how to design better plays that's not creating penalties instead of crying and complaining to refs all game. How many times is he going to run that predictable WR screen? It worked in preseason for Quez and week 1 fir Reagor but damn who don't see that play coming every series?

If Smith had not stepped out of bounds, it would have been called back anyway for offensive PI...he was grabbing the CB's jersey and pulling him....Ref would have called that in an instant..it was pretty blatant!

Better defensive play and we are 4-0. This game is easy.

I just don't understand why Sanders didn't run up the gut. Instead he's going east west..

When is Mailata due to be back on the field?

No holes to go up the cut from what i saw.

Also the two passes to Ertz and Ward hit them in the hands in the end zone from what I saw......they could have been throw A little more accurate but I'm not going to kill the rookie for that. One pass early in the game to Ertz was over thrown but we scored on that drive anyway. The call when Godert scored and the call on Whiteside were the ball game imo...two TDs taken away

The Texans went 4-12 with him starting last year, despite his 112 QBR and 4800+ passing yards.

It won’t change his mind. 

I'll say this. KC isn't winning a SB with that defense.

That doesn't make the play selection smart though. FG vs TDs

Well… Red zone running historically leads to FG’s and passing historically leads to TD’s.

The Eagles would have lost to the Cowboys and Chiefs with Tom Brady. How are you figuring 3-1?

Hurts left 8 points out there. It's not like Chiefs blew us out like Cowboys did. That was a loss no matter what but we could've beaten SF and very much had a chance against the Chiefs with even.... Flacco? All I'm saying is Hurts blew it with missed opportunities and noodle arming passes that should've been TD against SF and flat out inaccurate on 2 TDs against the Chiefs. 3-1 was very achievable. 

• 4 starting Olinemen out
• KC is a perennial SB contender with experienced veteran team
• New coach, young QB

You guys are being unrealistic with this season. New coaching staff, new players, coming off a terrible 4-12 season. 

Forget wins & losses. This is about evaluating the scheme, coach & QB to make decisions on building going forward. 

After the embarrassing loss to Dallas, at least they came out making a lot of positive drives and scoring. They have a lot to work on. It's gonna be a long season.

A question that needs answers..i figured he was gone for just 1 wk

I don't get the Hurts criticism. He played a really good game. This is his 8th freaking start! He had 3 TDs taken away by penalties. He lost to a team that is way better than the Eagles. That throw to Smith that was called back was PERFECT. Beautiful pass. The one to Ward ... could have been better... but you expect your receiver to catch that when it's on his hands. 

Are people in here still writing we are a quarterback away from a Super Bowl or did sensibility finally return?

If you want to defend crappy officiating have fun. They were totally one sided. Horrible. Not changing my mind so deal. They call some ticky tack crap on JJAW then on the next KC drive miss about 4 blatant holds. Yeah outstanding work there. Lmao

I'm not defending anything. I fully acknowledge that the officiating is garbage. However, that doesn't take away the fact that this is a mediocre team and that according to you, needs the officials to turn a blind eye to every infraction they commit.

Just out of curiosity, and because comparisons are inevitable... 

Carson Wentz first 8 starts (4-4):

177/275  64.1% 1,890 YDS 9 TDs 5 INTs 87.7 Passer Rating 17 Sacks

Hurts first 8 Starts (2-6):

165/278 59.4% 2,086 YDS 12 TDs 5 INTs 89.7 Passer Rating 18 Sacks

Fairly similar. I didn't look at rushing stats, though.

In all fairness, there were a lot of things uncalled: I count 3 OL holding (blatant)  on this one TD (Herbig, Dillard, and Dickerson) alone:

 

JJAW...one ST play and little else.
