Keenan Allen may be the most underrated WR in the league. GREAT person to emulate. Nice to hear on Graham, as I do see his role changing this year. And LOLROFLCOPTERLMAO at Barnett. Just don't be a penalty machine, and get 8 sacks. Looked more like the hula then Eagles wings, but they have time to improve. I bought a Smith jersey last year. First rookie one ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greend Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 1 hour ago, austinfan said: Who cares if Hurts gets to 4,000 yards. Eagles are one of the best running teams in the NFL, a lot of teams that put up big passing yards do so the way Reid used to, using the short pass instead of running the ball because they're so bad at it. So I'd expect the Eagles to be in the bottom half of passing yardage, but top ten in total yardage and points scored. 13 teams with 600+ passes, only two had 7+ NY/A, 5 were less than 6 NY/A. Eagles were at 6.5 NY/A. Other teams are "bad at running" because it's not the way to win in the NFL any more. Stop acting like we're running because we want to.

wussbasket Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 Eagles are in great company as being 1 of only 4 teams that had more rushing than passing TDs. The other 3 teams? Titans, Panthers, and Jags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greend Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 1 hour ago, austinfan said: The objective is to win games, not stat pad to please message board nerds. SF passed only 20 more times than the Eagles, Samuel 1405 yards, Kittle 910 yards, Aiyuk 826 yards. But 7.7 NY/A. So don't look for a drastic increase in passing, rather, the focus will be on increasing the efficiency of the passing game, and one way to do that is establish the run behind a powerful OL, and then quick strikes for big yardage off play action. And a lot more screens, with the athletes they have on the OL, they should have a top screen game. Spread defenses both horizontally and vertically. I figure they'll move toward more of a balanced offense, say 550 pass attempts, 500 rushes. They averaged 4.9 yards a rush, why would you make a drastic move away from the running game when it was so effective? They were 7th in average length of drive, but only 2 teams (Chiefs, Chargers) were significantly higher. So they only need an incremental improvement here. 12th in points per drive, that's where you want to make the jump. You know this damns your boy even more right?

If QB was not an unknown, would trade our second in a second. With so many teams who could be in the QB market, and 4 others having two1st round picks, we are going to need that second if we need to move up.

It's a pipe dream. I'm really hoping they move Kary Vincent to FS in camp and let him compete there...played some at LSU. Kid can fly and has great athleticism. I could see him succeeding in a 2-high S defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my eye on 4 guys for next year...VanDyke, McKee, Jurkovec and Levis. Dark horse...Anthony Richardson. I honestly would not be interested in Young or Stroud, having to move up to the top 3 most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Andy Weidl is most likely leaving for Pitt. A lot of front offices change after the draft, as teams don't want to shuffle around while they're deep in the scouting process for the current year's draft.
