September 20, 20222 yr Some of y’all were happier to see a bum not make the Eagles than you were to see your starting quarterback put on a show tonight.

Minshew was never going to be better than Hurts, but a team needs a competent backup in case of injury. I'd like to see players like Tyree Jackson slotted in as a QB3. It seems like in the NFL, things often take a long time to happen. It seems completely logical that guy who won a preseason game at QB for the Bills in 2019 could be QB3 if he's on the roster as a TE. Tyree's entire football background was at QB. He does have that so excellent size, speed and RAS of a TE so they're making him a TE. Backup QBs have minimal value on the field. TEs who are playing have more value. Greg Ward, Britain Covey, same basic thing. If Minshew had to go in there, you might want to add some of Hurts running. In a goal line situation, I'd rather have Tyree than Minshew.

Appreciate the thoughts towards Tyree but that just won't happen. They'd have Book in there ahead of him.

I would think they'd have Book in there ahead of him too. But in part I'm thinking longish term, he's in his second year so he's cheap through year 4. This is something he can work on for something in the future.
September 20, 20222 yr That was a great game all round, never looked like losing, the offense looked great, and the defense kept Jefferson and Cook quiet. Some godawful reffing (The PI on Smith when he avoided contact and the ineligible receiver on Seumalo when he wasn't even 2 yards beyond the line of scrimmage were embarrassing) stopped it being an absolute blow out.
September 20, 20222 yr Great performance. Couldn't really ask for much more. Slay owned kirk and jettas. Nice game from hurts, much better passing, and those TD runs were very impressive, showed immense strength. That tackle from siposs was so important.
September 20, 20222 yr Great defense except for the score, where they looked like 3rd stringers. Can't believe neither team scored in the 2nd half. Hurts was awesome. Some of his reads were freakishly good. Where did that come from? The next step will be consistency.

And yes, he needs to start becoming consistent to prove he can be "the guy" moving forward. But off to a good start to the season for him.

Play calls were much more conservative. I understand they had a nice lead and were trying to put together long, time-consuming drives, but I’d rather see them stay aggressive until the last 8-10 minutes before worrying too much about the clock. Other than that though, I can’t find anything to complain about much.

The guy is in his third year and for the first time since HS he’s in the same offense. Some of this is about maturity and some is about development.

So glad Slay shut jefferson up, as did Hurts of his doubters. At least for another week. Dline and oline much improved. Gonna go out on a limb and give TJ Edwards some love
September 20, 20222 yr A dominant performance. Impressive victory. I was concerned about this game for nothing. Now lets roll into to Washington and defeat the Commanders!!!

He just played at an elite level, in a big game, against a good team and still isn't satisfied. Got a like that.
