We just do it a month and a half earlier. Maple syrup isn’t usually brought out this time Happy Bank Closure for Columbus Day. (Real one, also called Indigenous People Day for those who can’t handle real history is October 12th. Surprise Cinderella, all figures in history weren’t saints and those demonized weren’t 100% evil.). Bank closures. An antiquated technique developed in the Great Depression that in the day and age of 24 hour every day ATMs is a whimsical reminder of days long gone by. At least Federal employees and bank employees get a holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covey got one decent return and the Eagles were successful on all of their kicks. Pretty average performance, which for the STs might be the pinnacle of their season so far.

UndyTaker Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 As I said yesterday after the game, this team is consistent at getting really cold on offense. After our 2nd TD we completely changed how we ran our offense and none of it really made any sense. From what I can remember I dont think we took a shot deep down the sideline all game. It was night and day vs what we saw against Vikings and Commanders. Also Hurts doesnt seem to be putting that same zip on the ball that he showed vs the Vikings. A lot of his throws yesterday were exactly like his 2021 self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connecticut Eagle Posted October 10, 2022 Author Share Posted October 10, 2022 Elliot had to play twice as many games to get his first game winner with less than 2 minutes to play. Dicker is clearly better. (Note: Elliot had two FGs with less than 2 minutes against the Giants that day.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was just a giant win by the entire front. They completely reestablished the LOS a yard or two deep. Tuipulotu pushes his man back, and in so doing messes with the angle of the TE trying to get a double team on him. Sweat has set a strong edge and is there to take away the bounce from the RB. CGJ has shot the gap and made the OG looking to block him whiff... and he's the first color the RB sees in the hole slowing him down. So, while this is a great push from Davis, he wasn't alone in stuffing this play. But, his drive forcing the RT deeper sure helped and messed up the timing of the pull. Incidentally, in this situation, the Eagles dropped Reddick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving up the punt fake was obviously not good. Another arrow down for ST. I thought we got a solid with number of touchbacks that the Cards gave us… like no one else is doing that. Didn’t stop Covey from trying to get killed (muffed punt). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty average performance, which for the STs might be the pinnacle of their season so far. For Covey to have a decent return he needs at least 10-15 yards of open space to get started. He still has yet to show any ability to make a defender miss. I really wish the Eagles could cross train someone to catch punts. Chachere has one more call up before he's going to be exposed to waivers. He's such a great ST player. I'd much rather have him on the 53 than Covey.

Sack that QB Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 NHL player for the Lightning Ian Cole was suspended by his team because an anonymous Twitter account posted a lengthy accusation against him. Is it me does this set a terrible precedent? I think all accusations should be taken very seriously and investigated to the fullest extent. But until that happens, suspending someone based on the mere word of an anonymous Twitter account? We allow that, what’s to stop some die hard fan right before the playoffs to accuse the opponent’s best player of something heinous to get them suspended? This is very disconcerting. If it turns out to be true, he should not only be suspended, he should get worse. But honestly, if it turns out it isn’t true, if I’m Ian Cole I’d never suit up for the Lightning again. I couldn’t mend a relationship with an organization that took the word of an anonymous account over mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEFly Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 1 hour ago, Waiting4Someday said: Constant blitz and a D playing 10 players near the LOS is a strategy against team that won’t risk going vertical or hasn’t fine tuned their quick game. Perhaps with the starting OL we’ll have the confidence to block it up and take some shots - still unsure why the bubble seemingly was the only counter to what the Cards were doing. 72.2% pass completion rate yesterday with no turnovers. The strength of the Cardinals secondary is their good and fast Ss. The strength of their line are the DL. The game plan was to exploit the weaknesses on the edge and overall it worked pretty well. But the fact Shane went to the well so much suggests a bit of a lack of imagination on his part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lornemalvo4133 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Huge play last night was the Cardinal player getting injured on the Eagles third and goal incompletion. Forced to burn a timeout that would have really helped their chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Career Chase 113 for 1798 and 15 TD's, 15.9 per. Smith 92 for 1269 and 6 TD's, 13.8 per. Smith has a lot of work to do to get back into the conversation.

To me, it was just the fake. The place kicker and punter have a low bar to clear, but yes, competent play. I’d take that every week. Was the right call to return that punt? I’d say no. Was the fake versus safe or block? The former would be on the players, the latter a questionable call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both teams were good at sustaining drives. We only had eight possessions and scored on half of them. We had 3 2nd half possessions. 4 min - FG 5 min - Punt 8 min - FG Clearly tried protecting the defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty average performance, which for the STs might be the pinnacle of their season so far. Fake punt negates all that. Cardinals stole a possession that would have been extremely good field position for the offense had they smelled it out and stuffed it. Covey was fine and did what was expected, nothing more or less. Dicker was also as advertised... solid, but not spectacular. Siposs had a great day, but indoors, that's much easier to do. But, the stolen possession trumps all else on this day because that was specifically aimed at the coordinator. They saw something in the Eagles punt return that left them vulnerable. STs as a whole gets a higher mark, but the coordinator gets the F, because the fake punt was game planned in against his scheme, not the talent. Everything else you mentioned was about talent, not scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
