Defense has to make stops. Too many long drives and giving up way too many rush yards. 

Can’t make stops when you don’t blitz and there’s holes all along the line.

Mahomes yes...Allen is unclutch.

He can’t do it alone if our D can’t stop the lowly Commies offense. They have nearly 23 mins TOP in the first half. Our D can’t get off the field. 

Hence why I said he can’t do it alone. I’m just curious to see how he does his part.

It ain’t all on this crappy D, they need to run the ball and quit passing so much

Can’t run the ball if you don’t have the ball….this soft ass defense better pucker their a-holes and get after it

Different game plans. Look what we did to Minn. This mini bye week is the culprit.

There's only been 2 teams in the last 50 years to go undefeated in the regular season. This is a division game. 

 

There's still a half left, but if they lose this game. It's not the end of the season. 

Some people act like this team is 0-8..

Agreed, divisional games are always tough. 

I guess I'm looking at the bigger picture, concerned that a team simply going ball control has been such an problem for us. 

Eagles only lose this game if they don’t score more points than the other team

We sure are making it easy for them to play keep away. 

They’re an NFL team too. They’re executing. Heck a week ago they gave the Vikings fits too. 

At least whenever they lose the undefeated and best team in the league talk can stop. Maybe they’ll stop drinking the kool aide.

That's what many analysts have been moaning about. Now when we win, they will say... well it was Washington. 

When they win it only matters to us .  I'm fine with that.

After what I saw in the Bills game yesterday, either team would slap the Eagles hard.

Just like last year. And this isn't a one off. We were awful last Thursday too. Getting sick of these prime time games.

Yes OK I get that I'm not arguing that. 

Anyway, this game isn’t over, yet. As bad as we’ve been we’re only down 6.

They’re only up six and the Eagles have the ball. 

Our D can’t get off the field and they allowed points before the half. This is reminiscent of last season and years prior. 
Our we still in it, of course. Is our D’s inability to stop anything a concern now and into the future - absolutely. Can’t win when your offense is watching from the sideline for the majority of the game.

I think Minnesota could torch the d the second d time around. No way they stop Jefferson like they did the first time.

I agree. In theory we can turn this around very quickly. I just don't see it. Not the way that first half unfolded.

Philly fans boo man,  where you been?

The real fans boo when its appropriate. Its not that in the first half of a 20-14 game when your team is 8-0.

Are you even watching the game? We’re not winning this 

Not sure I'd go that far already but, the defense is leaving at lot to be desired. Still a half to go and maybe this will be another game the D doesn't let them score in the 2nd half.

Ertz is out for the season. I wonder if he’ll come back or retire n

So, do they fold like a cheap tent or play inspired for the 2nd half? They should be embarrassed right now, need Dawkins to come in and give a half time ass chewing.

You can blitz against the run and give up a big play too. Run blitzing isn’t always the best option because if they hit the wrong hole or get blocked it’s suddenly a long touchdown run.

I'm sorry guys. First half is my fault.  I forgot to take my socks off.  I have watched every game barefooted this season.. I just took them off.  We should be good now. 

Finally. You've changed this game of inches into a game of feet. 

Lots of game left

Yup, he’ll Dallas or New York might as well. If you can’t stop Washington how are you going to stop a team with a better line and a better rb?
