  • Perfect weekend for me. I got to make my long time soul mate my wife officially. And I got a eagles win today. Life is good. 

  • Listen up blog.  Enough. These 2 ass clowns are suspended for 2 weeks.  They've both had warnings to quit the personal attacks.  There's a line between trash talk and just abusing other posters a

What LTs would you put ahead of Mailata?

Which LGs ahead of Dickerson?

Here's the starting OTs page https://www.ourlads.com/nfldepthcharts/depthchartpos/OT

Here's the starting OGs page https://www.ourlads.com/nfldepthcharts/depthchartpos/OG

At LT your options are Tyler Smith (Dallas), Andrew Thomas (NYG), Charles leno (Wash), Braxton Jones (Chi), Taylor Decker (Detroit), David Bahktiari (GB), Christian Darrisaw (Minn), Jake Matthews (Atlanta), Jacob Ekwonu (Carolina), James Hurst (NO), Donnovan Smith (TB), DJ Humphries (Arizona), Joe Noteboom (LA), Trent Williams (SF), Charles Cross (Seattle)

The cupboard is so bare at LG that it isn't worth listing here.  Go to the webpage if you need confirmation of that.

Quentin Nelson, if healthy.

And defeated 2 teams in the top row. Obvious, but feels good

They really need to double down high in the draft on Dline. Let Hargrave go and sign Da'ron Payne. Offseason goals!

 

Mazi Smith is a nice player.

They need another bye week to accommodate the weird scheduling (ThNF, London, Black Friday).  I wouldn't have a problem with ThNF if the games were always played off a bye.

EDIT: where the vast majority of fans watch the game on TV, DAL and DET shouldn't be guaranteed their Thanksgiving games at home.

I thought we were getting Quinnen Williams.

Shouldn't be much of a surprise. Everyone knew the schedule was going to be on the easier side

NYG better, GB worse then expected - yeah the schedule is what it is.

Am I dreaming is this happening

There is going to be surprises but overall even in the offseason people were calling it easy. It's why others are saying we're not a real threat because we haven't faced a lot of tough teams

I would be open to this becoming an eagles tradition, always a home game in Philly that Friday, eagles with black jerseys

Our toughest remaining games may be NYG x2 and at Dallas with Dak.

I suspect Green Bay figures some things out by our matchup and look better. But otherwise i tend to agree.

I think Tennessee will be a tougher opponent than NYG. They are a team of winners, they have that mentality and the coaching to make it a game. They’re the kind of team that gets better the colder it gets.

 

this all is kind of new to NYG and I think they’ll eventually fall back to earth

There's something nice about keeping traditions alive. I hope the NFL doesn't mess with this.

They can still play on Thanksgiving - I don't believe they deserve the competitive advantage of playing at home.

I'd have to have known about them at some time in order to forget about them.

What's worrisome about that is we've seen how the Ravens have done great in the regular season but fall apart in the playoffs

Oh, I've been worried about it for a while.   

I'd rather have different teams play on Thanksgiving. That's a tradition I'm completely fine with them stopping. Or create a new tradition

Many commentators are noting that the Eagles have "yet to play a complete game” despite their strong start. A silly observation. What would a complete game look like? Winning each quarter 14-0? How often does that happen in the NFL? And even if it did happen once, it would not be predictive of a "complete game” happening the next week. 
 

Their ceiling isn’t much higher, but status quo has been plenty good enough. 

PPG: 26.8 (4th)
PPG by quarter:

1st: 2.3 (24th)
2nd: 18.7 (1st, by far)
3rd:  2.8 (24th)
4th: 3.0 (28th)

Maybe averaging more than a FG per quarter outside of the 2nd?  


PPG: 17.5 (6th)
Defensive ppg by quarter:  Far more consistent
1st: 3.5 (14th)
2nd: 4.5 (3rd) 
3rd: 2.3 (8th)
4th:  7.2 (21st)

 

I'd like to see the scoring in the 1st, 3rd, and 4th qtr more like the teens than the 20s, and late 20s.   And I'd like to see the 4th quarter scoring allowing go to the teens or higher, though, to a certain extent they have been playing with some nice leads to not need to keep teams out of the end zone.

That's partially self-selection, Davis plays on run downs, teams tend to have much higher YPC when they run on passing downs.

He's a load, but he has to get better at leverage against double teams, top NTs either split double teams or hold their ground, he's been moved too often.

They have created a new tradition... the 8 PM Thanksgiving game, and it rotates around.

 

The tradition of the Thanksgiving games in Detroit and Dallas should be maintained.  Detroit has played a Thanksgiving game since before it was cool.  Let the Detroit fans have that one moment.  It's literally all they have.   And Dallas took the other game when the NFL wanted a second game to showcase on Thanksgiving when no one else wanted it every year.  So, they too have 'earned' it.
