I’ve felt for a while the nfl wants bezos to buy the commanders. I wouldn’t be shocked if they push out Snyder and have bezos buy the team 

Then we can further expand and have games on the moon!

Screw the Phillies, the true prize of tonight is the Sixers home opener against Boston.  

Yep. 

Unless there's a concert going on somewhere.

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.

The Eagles first td drive took up the last seven minutes of the first quarter. Then they punched it in during the first play of the second. This has happened several times this year.

Eagles had 2 first quarter drives and scored a td on one. 

the quarter by quarter scoring stuff is overblown 

 

Djax signed with Baltimore lol. Guessing we said thanks but no thanks.

Yeah, but how they gonna regulate the Ball pressure in that environment? ....asking for Brady...

Oxygen supply built into the face masks or just have Bezos build the First Fully enclosed Dome,

Wow what a defensive play

Yeah.  If Snyder has dirt on other owners, Irsay as to be the top of the list.  Guy is a scumbag. 

Fing shift. 

At least the shift is gone in 2023 

23 pitch first inning isn’t ideal. at this pace only getting 4-5 innings out of him. Really hoping he can get some easy innings in a row. 

Who had the only Phillies base runners through 3 innings as Schwarber x2?  

The Birds are on a Bye Week and are at home against the Steelers the week after and then Houston Thursday Night.   This rest is needed for the guys.   I believe in momentum.  But I think they can pick up where they left off and keep this train moving.   As I reflect on the last 6 amazing weeks. I'm very Proud of the The Whole Team and Staff.  This first 6 weeks have been very thrilling, excited and very fun to watch.   They may have a perfect record.....but I'm sure they would admit they haven't been perfect doing it.   Regardless, Best Record in the NFL almost two months in is a very good place to be.  11 more weeks after the bye to the playoffs.

Philly sports has a chance to hit the win trifecta or the loss trifecta 

Harper is on fire. 

Just to summarize my final thoughts on everything that got us to this point with Hurts…

Theres a path I wanted to take to the SB.  I feel that the NFL, with the way the game is officiated, has basically given 32 teams a set of directions to that end goal.  Get a franchise qb that is a surgical passer.  Pass, pass, and pass.

Every year, a handful of teams (or less), really build around the run.  1-2 (or less), do so effectively.  And those 1-2 come up short very early in the playoffs.

It feels that building around that running game with a less prolific passer at qb is just a backwards fool’s errand.  
 

When you are in the car (pre gps), arguing with your friends because they didn’t take the route you wanted…but are starting to get close to the destination, at some point it’s time to enjoy the ride.  And at 6-0, that’s where I’m at.  I’m still skeptical, but maybe the league just isn’t built to stop this offense in 2022.

That Zeke TD was embarrassing - Fletch completely washed out, Avonte overrunning the play, Kvon late to react and with a horrible angle... not so good.  What's the point of the 3Q nickel defense, if teams can march right down the field.  A 20-3 lead wasn't safe - coaching material for the bye, I'd hope.

It amazes me that people think he’s overrated. He’s hitting with an elbow that needs TJ surgery and still raking.

Typically agree but with the way the NFC is right now, what team is a surgical passing team with an elite QB? Maybe Brady and/or Rodgers get it together but they are flawed teams right now. If they were in the AFC with Buffalo and KC I’d be concerned. But there’s only one game they would see either of those teams this season. 
 

The NFL is typically a cyclical league where trends come and go and I think with defenses getting smaller and faster to try to stop elite passing offenses, that leaves an opportunity for a run heavy team to do some damage. I still think an elite passer is the way to go, but we might be seeing a shift back to power run teams in the next few years to exploit years of trying to get smaller and faster on defense.

Say Will Anderson Jr. isn't an option in round 1 with Saints pick... Which player would you most want on the Eagles if you could choose from the field?

Jalen Carter… need more Jalens.
