Really don't think Reid is gonna let Reddick torment Mahomes all game. Hopefully Sweat and Hargrave take over.

Flip side, I have no doubt we will have creative ways, stunts / loops etc, in order to get Reddick some favorable looks.

However, I’m fully convinced that the most important thing to look for on DL is interior pressure.

Mahommes is not 100%. Get pressure in his face early, keep contain on the edges.

Going to stick with what I've been feeling and what all research leads to

KC is 18th in rushing yards per carry allowed, led the league in TD passes allowed, and was 28th in passer rating allowed. They don't have the horses.

They limped through the playoffs against 2 unimpressive teams.  Cincy had a great year but then lost their O-line.

37-17 Eagles win

Bonus: 180+ team rushing yards and Hurts with 3 total TDs.

I said 180 yards too. Just feels like a game for the Eagles to do what they are best at. Run the f out of it.

That is a good suggestion and something we are actually talking about.  I was going to set up the group and special forum tonight to test it for future situations. 

Wow. Detention, Probation, Double Secret Probation, GONE...That's three strikes, next batter.

Seems a reasonable progression to me...

Time to stop tip toeing through the garbage and just have it cleaned up. I'm in.

Final pack of questions before tomorrow.

1. What are you more confident in tomorrow: Hurts playing a great game or the defense playing a great game. FYI: when I say defense playing a great game, I don't mean completely shutting down the Chiefs. I think we'll all know what a great game looks in context to the offense we are playing.

2. Which coach is more likely to try an elaborate trick play tomorrow: Reid or Sirianni?

3. If right now you could lock the Eagles in at 30 points(but no higher) would you take it? Basically an elaborate way of asking if you are confident 30 points will be enough to win the game.

Regarding 1.  The total points over/under is 50.5. That makes the over/under for the winning Defense 24.75.  That, for me, defines a great game by the Defense … 24 points surrendered or less.  "Great” may be a bit hyperbolic for 24 points surrendered, but I’m not going to split hairs.  With that said, your question is a toss up.  I expect both to happen. 

Regarding 2. Reid is.

Regarding 3. Yes.

Just do the opposite of what he says and you’ll make $$ about 95% of the time. 

 

Holy hell that was a hard read.  Ultimately, people need to act better and be better. 

As for tomorrow, I think the key will be the Eagles OL and DL.  If they can steadily wear Chris Jones down, his effectiveness will go decrease; Kelce will be a key there.  Following blocks through so the DL is on the ground too. 

I fancy a lot of games with Reddick and where he lines up too; they can really stress that OL with certain packages.  Where will Reddick be and who will he go against?

Goedert is being severely overlooked in this game for some reason. I'm not sure why. He's been talked about constantly all year about how good and important he is, and suddenly during SB week it's all AJ Brown, Devonta Smith, Reddick, etc. Maybe it's because Kelce is on the other side, but I wouldn't be stunned if Goedert is their leading receiver tomorrow. Not saying it's most likely, but Goedert is really good.

It is all context.  He is being compared to Travis, who is sucking all the air out of the room.

Wonder what the betting odds are on a Greg Ward pass. Seems like a very Sirianni thing to do.

Should be a chess match tomorrow.  Two weeks for each team to get healthy and prepare.

Eagles 32 AR’s team 26

Bonus: Jason Kelce scores.

anyone have the article cause I’d love to read it 

 

Not gonna read it because I lived through it and it was devastating. We had all seen the Colts split town to head to Indianapolis, and here it was, our beloved team was gonna leave too. Just think how you’d react if the same thing happened today. Sure, you can say we’re blowing it out of proportion, that it wasn’t a big deal since after all, the Eagles didn’t move. But in the moment, they were as good as gone. Leonard Tose’s daughter had already enrolled her kid in school out there. It was a miracle the move didn’t happen. 

Here’s an anecdote I like to tell. I was so torn up inside about the Eagles move that I actually got sick one night during dinner at home. Went to the bathroom to hurl, completely out of the blue. All I could taste was French dressing. Since that day, I’ve never used French dressing. It’s too much of an emotional trigger for me. Not that I worry it’d make me hurl, but it’s such a bad memory that I wouldn’t want to bring it back.
