Talonblood Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Imagine the Eagles D playing the 1st half like they have been playing in the 2nd half of games, then playing the second half like that as well. That's a win if they found a way to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EaglesIreland Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 The eagles certainly have a chance in this game but that’s contingent on a few things. 1) commit to the run 2) get pressure on Brady and get him moving off the spot because if Tom Brady even at 44 is allowed time he’ll destroy us. So gannon needs to draw up the anti Washington game defence and do that. 3) I’ve seen posters joke about Mailata running with the ball but a former rugby league player running with the ball after a head of steam is no joke. I’d have it drawn up and use it if it came up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have it drawn up and use it if it came up. I mean look they got Lane catching a pass against the WFT right? Or maybe it was another game but they drew up that play. I have to believe they have something up their sleeve at some point for Mailata. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamabird Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 23 hours ago, downundermike said: Brady is 20-4 in playoff games in Foxborough. I do not think the weather is going to impact him the way people are hoping. Playing in Foxborough in the playoffs when you are dealing with frigid weather conditions is quite a bit different that playing in Tampa with thunderstorms and a muddy field. I'm not saying he won't be successful, but comparing weather conditions in January and February in Foxborough to weather conditions in Tampa is comparing apples to oranges. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right and I agree with that. But look the weather isn't going to really affect Brady. It may affect his receivers. It may affect the game but it isn't going to affect Brady. He's been there, he's seen it, he's played it in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would have no problem dinking and dunking his way downfield. The Eagles should enlist a similar plan with their run and short to medium passes. They needs to avoid the negative plays and penalties though. It won’t be an easy game. The refs will not be kind to the Eagles in this one. One turnover could mean the difference in the game for the Eagles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like our chances of doing that but we do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good at all. Hurts also is a little too lose with that football when it comes to those sack fumbles for my liking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penn7980 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Would not be an easy game to win. The best chance is to play the team's best weapon: run the ball. The OL is the key to get the running game going. We have 4 RBs all can carry the ball and gain yardage. Have them available to the game. Run the ball, use the clock and that will keep Brady on the sideline. Good luck guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brady has scored 30+ points in 11 of his last 14 playoff games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsdarkstar Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 I hope Gannon is creative enough to mix it up and throw different things at Brady and not just sit back and let him pick us apart. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadagain65 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 So I just simmed out the season to match the playoff schedule in Madden & somehow managed to beat the Bucks 19-14 (on All Madden🤪), last time I did this was 2017 NFC Champ game & was one point off the final score, you can all thank me later 🤑, did get my ass kicked by GB the next week tho...

D-Shiznit Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 The weather is definitely going to favour us, that's about it though. I think our O can have some success, but our D is going to get lit up. Just make it respectable, that's all I ask. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know straight away our D is going to come out, it isn't going to get to Brady and it is going to give up the easy completions and they are going to march down the field and score. It is going to happen because it has happened in like... 14 games this year. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eglz1 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Don't count on the weather for too much help. The latest on Accuweather is calling for 25% chance of precipitation with no accumulation Sunday afternoon but winds west 23 gusting 37 mph. I wonder what direction the field is laid out in Tampa. That much crosswind would make longer passes pretty tricky. But then I don't think Tom is known for his long ball, very good at dink and dunk though so the wind may have less effect than we'd like to think.

Hurts will be the one struggling to throw if the wind is bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portyansky Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 Not sure why everyone is so concerned about the weather. By game time it's gonna be fine. Gannon is the biggest concern. Brady loses when he is not comfortable in the pocket. I don't care if he doesn't have 2 of his top 3 WRs. He can pull people from the stands and make them look good. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
