Good to know. I was worried it might’ve fallen off during the flight to AZ.

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

It will be interesting to see.  He didn't keep a good base in that game and I think that hurt the shorter stuff.  He's avoided that alot this year and we won big, so I'm not making too much of it.

You don't believe in this Eagles squad?

I do. It's more about Mahomes' legacy. This just isn't a game they lose.

If this is the strongest case to be made, I'm liking our chances!

Nope.  According to skippy the 2022 Eagles are the most perfect team ever assembled, and the Chiefs are absolutely no threat.

Word to the wise, do not post facts to the contrary.  skippy does not react well to that and will put you on ignore.

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.

A lot of football teams over here and I assume in Europe too, have to place new kit orders months and months in advance nowadays in order to get them in for the next season - this is due to manufacturing issues and back.log post COVID.  Some manufacturers have shorter timelines to deliver, but I'd imagine NFL jerseys are a complex thing to manufacture.

Now of course, if countries were willing to manufacture in country, this wouldn't be as much of an issue. But as most outsource it, the issue is there

If Mahomes plays his A+ game, we're going to lose. Simple as that. If we get his A- or lower game, we have a shot.

Depends. If Hurts also plays his A+ game, then I think the Eagles are better enough across the rest of the roster for the Eagles to win.

Would seem like a long shot to get his A+ game with his top WR out and others banged up.

Plus our D line.

We'll see.

I'd suggest this game is more about the Eagles' legacy.  We can show right now that the last one was no fluke and that we are a force to be reckoned with for awhile.  Andy and Mahomes are in the way.  Sorry, Andy.

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.

This is confusing to me... but I applaud your initiative.

🤔. Was last year's AFC CG not about Mahomes' legacy coming off the OT win against the Bills that led to a playoff rule change?   Is that the kind of game they lose?

What makes this game so different?

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. 

Wait a minute- so a franchise like the NFL which is fantastic at marketing somehow doesn't have the Eagles Superbowl jerseys for sale, hardly seems like a possibility given how well they fleece money from their fans, so are you telling me they never expected the Eagles to be there?

His top WR is out ??  Do you mean Hardman ??

Maybe you should do a little research on the Chiefs before making that statement.

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

That's my hope.

Confusing how? I'll try to explain (my thinking on doing it).

If we stuff Pacheco and manage Kelce, Mahomes is going to have a really long night. He's so down on weapons and that ankle isn't right.

We are petrified of Mahomes, ok? That’s basically it.

Yes, they could lose the game. No duh. You're taking what I'm saying too literally I think.

I didn't think women could fly that late in a pregnancy

Mahomes is able to avoid free rushers and hit lasers with point-point accuracy 25+ yards downfield. Our DL can play well AND our DBs can cover well...and they can still score. Mahomes when he's on his game is a cheat code.

The best bet to slow them down is hit Mahomes, make him roll to his left on that bad ankle + take risks for turnovers (fumbles instead of tackles + jump routes).

I don't give enough of a F do "do a little research".

Thanks for doing it for me.

Still think it's unlikely we get his A+ game.

According to the draft points value pick 10 and 31 are worth 1900 points which could get us up to the 4th pick in the draft. Would you consolidate picks to get Anderson or Carter. 

If we're able to bottle up Kelce will be the biggest question mark in this game. I'm almost more worried about that aspect than Mahomes because I think we have the talent on defense to contain the rest.

He better run out and catch them himself. He may be able to move, but I also doubt he'll be able to cut as well as he normally does.
