hurts needs to pass alot better this sunday, seems he has lost some of it the last few weeks, that being said I hope they run it more than they pass

I have a hard time seeing us winning this game. It just feels like the time Mahomes and Reid get their second. I can't see them losing in the Super Bowl again.

unpossible - His twitter handle is NFLDraftScout. 

I was wondering earlier on the Reddick effect on the KC game plan.  He's been a nightmare to game plan against and the Niners game was the icing on the cake in terms of what he will do against TE, etc.  A 5 man DL will be hard for them to throw against?  Esp when they will play 4 DL and let him roam.  Gonna be a fun one for Gannon

That would mean they’re winning so me too

You seem to have latched onto him early

With the clear acceptance that I do like Carter, and am willing to have a redshirt year for him if the Eagles do take him … so guilty as charged … I went back and looked at the 13 Mock simulations I’ve done thus far, and Carter only is in 3 of them.  So it is a fixation with limitations

I remember years ago believing that there was no way that Reid would lose a 2nd consecutive NFC CG at home... and then it happened.

 

 

There's some twitter theories the Jerseys are going to be revamped for next season so they don't want to manufacture Green SB jerseys. Would be pretty dumb if true.

You don't believe in this Eagles squad?

I feel like there's a possibility Steichen has already accepted the Colts job and asked that it not be announced until after the Super Bowl

Seems plausible. 

 

Just another instance of how Nike has been Fing awful since they took over the jerseys.

He's not though.  He's the worst of the bunch. 

Only if you don't like actual discussions about football. If you want narratives, then sure go like Aikman.

The over confidence of some is killing me.  Minus the sacks, we were a statistically better defense in 2017, and after two dominant performances in the NFC playoffs, they got absolutely shredded in the Super Bowl.

As long as the players are not overconfident, what we, as fans, have for a confidence level is irrelevant … less than irrelevant.

I don't know what discussions you think you're hearing from Olsen.  He is one of the most boring commentators out there. I swear people only started liking him because his voice sounds like Romo who was the original out of nowhere love affair with an overrated announcer.

14 mph winds and he had 1 bad / inaccurate deep ball.

He also threw high to the far sideline underneath to AJ on a 7 yard attempt with a max of 9 yards on 3rd and 14 or so.

There was a right sideline floating throwaway deep ball into tight double coverage that is a bad 30-70 ball if on target. Overthrow out of bounds is how you avoid getting killed in the pocket or intentional grounding there.

He had 7 more incompletions the rest of the day and 2 of them were back to back drops to AJ and Devonta on balls that hit them in the hands or chest.

He had a 112 rating vs NY.

What two players does he displace to move from #11 to #9?  If we look at Miller’s Mock I can see Jones moving past Skoronski, but right now I don’t see a second such player.

Hypothetically, I think he could go as high as 5. The top 4 are pretty much set in stone, but after that I could see teams waiting until later in the draft to go after DL and CB.

This is beyond stupid. How much does it cost to make a green jersey? 10 bucks? 20? They sell for 180.

The would sell like hotcakes. I would not buy the grey on sale for 20 bucks if I had no Eagles gear and it was the only option.  Its a pretend jersey.

Ever since Dave announced the demise of the old EMB, I've been wanting to get the Super Bowl Thread into our database

I'm up to 26 pages done, now. Little by little, I'm getting it done. 

I was curious though... one of the reasons to do this is to have it indexed by the search engines, so that we'll have more hits when people search for us. So I went to Google and searched for that thread, to see if it had been indexed. Of course, it has. But I noticed something interesting that I hadn't anticipated...

It looks like Google is now identifying us as being the original EMB, even though technically, we aren't. If you notice on the image below, it says that Google first indexed 'eaglesmessageboard.com' more than 10 years ago. Well, we're only (almost) 3 years old. 

So I'm assuming that since Google indexed the original LII GDT back then, it's identifying us as the original board, which dated back more than 10 years. 

Of course, that doesn't really mean anything, other than they think we're the original EMB, which we are, 'in heart' if not technically.

Spoiler

 

 

Has there been any update on Hurts’ shoulder?

Would be awesome.  No chance.  

I set the randomness factor high but yeah.  I cannot see it happening at all.

Maybe google thought the site just moved. Should help with anyone from the old one trying to get back right?

It is still attached to his right arm.

Their were also several under thrown balls that the receivers made good catches on, he seems a bit off imo, maybe the injury who knows
