They got waxed and are triggered

And exhale. Holy hell that was a frustrating second half. 

They went away from running the ball... and it got tight.   

 

This is a running team, no ifs ands or buts about it.   That's who they are.  They need to live that way.  Or they will die any other way.

Not a good win.   But, it was a win, so that's good.

They made the most of the Cowboys' mistakes.  When Dallas didn't make mistakes, the Eagles struggled.

 

That bootleg exposed us pretty bad

6-0.

There are avenues for us to get better. Life is good.

Would have killed to have a running back not get stopped immediately by arm tackles tonight. My goodness.

The defense opened the door, Jalen closed it. End of discussion. 

It's hard to win in the NFL. We just beat a 4-2 team by 2 possessions.

Eagles are 6-0 and have a top 5 draft pick.

Life as an Eagle fan is so good right now.

I feel better about this one than I did last week though.

I don't.  Murray is a much better QB than Rush.   Rush and McCarthy turned the ball over 4 times.

6-0 going into the bye.  Got a bit ugly but it put the cowpads in third place in the division.  Hoping Lions got healthy in their bye week.

There were a ton of hidden yards between arm tackles taking down our RBs and missed tackles on defense.

The bye week came at a great time. Hopefully we can get the OL healthy.

Coaches need to really dig deep and get much better with 2nd half adjustments. If Dak were playing, this may have ended differently.

How about their adjustment should be not to adjust and keep doing what was working the entire first half of every game

Dallas' RBs never went down on 1st contact. Our RBs that weren't Sanders always did.

If Sermon isn't better than Gainwell, find another RB.

Lane going out F'ed everything up in the 3rd, but the O pulled it off when it mattered in the 4th.

Get well soon Lane.

Yep. Pollard and Zeke routinely got more than what was blocked. 

She had no idea what CGJ said hahaha, she was stumped

 

Hoping Detroit beats them next week that would be amazing

Yeah, you think that’s gonna hold up against top QB’s ??

It would be nice if we didn't have to use our Qb as the battering ram.  He's going to get concussed.  LBs diving helmet first at his head on QB sneaks constantly... its just a matter of time.

This was a much better team overall. Arizona stinks.

And we looked better, even if just because of the game plan. Not just constant WR screens all game long.

D made tons of turnovers. Run game was still good.

Hurts was ok, and then struggled when Parsons got to face off against Driscoll. But they figured that out after 1 or 2 drives when they started running it again. 

It was better than the Arizona game.

Our guys spent too much time going for strips and didn't secure the ball carrier.

He can't read.

 

Lol.

Cooper Rush.   They were opportunistic, but they won't be lining up against him often.

Amazing to be 6-0…but, per usual, need to offer up 2 major concerns, neither of which involve the defense.

1. The passing offense needs to be more self sufficient.  It simply cannot be entirely dependent on a running game to pummel the defense first.  That falls on Hurts, the play calling, and the OL’s pass protection.  
 

2. This vaunted OL is only as good as it can play for 60:00 as a unit.  And if every single game ends up with the offense having to eliminate half the playbook because 2-3 OL starters are out, then the OL isn’t that spectacular.
