It didnt, yet.

When I couldnt get them on sale on Tuesday I was trying to buy a pair off someone on facebook, but it seemed a little shady so I didnt go through with it. They were (supposedly) selling lower level, row 20 for 700 each. The same tickets are on ticketmaster for 1200 each. But thats not why it felt scammy. There were other reasons.

Anyway, my friend and I are watching ticket prices. He went to some phillies playoff games including NLCS games so Im trusting him when he says prices may still drop on Thursday or Friday.

Would love to see these upper level tickets drop from around 700 to like 550-600.

If they dont, we will end up paying the 650-700 that they are right now.

For the divisional game, tickets in Upper Level were around $700 + rip off ticket Master fee.  We were right under the 1960 Championship banner.  Good view 👌

Does anyone know where I can get an archive of the radio broadcasts from this year's Eagles games? The NFL used to have them available, but I don't believe they do anymore. 

What I want/need (hopefully), is all Eagles radio, and if possible, all Westwood One and Opposing team broadcasts. 

I like where this is headed!

I was thinking about Hurts' deep ball the other day. The coaches have done a great job of utilizing it too. They're not doing a ton of 50+ yard bombs down the field. They're really going for the 30-40 yard throws that Jalen really excels at. His touch on those make him pretty automatic. They've weaponized it very well.

With how many different ways the Eagles offense have won this year, I wouldn’t be surprised to see this offense feature more downfield strikes than usual

If we don't shoot ourselves in the foot, I really like our chances. We are dynamic in multiple ways and I'm confident we can run the ball against anyone.

Play smart and we got this.

Not bad, temp will also be fine.

I would like them to get an athletic wing at the deadline. Cause I don’t think you can use thybulle in the playoffs. He’s really not playing all that much anyway but nice to have an athletic wing for defense and maybe shoot a little in case something happens like what happened with green last year.

But the thing that absolutely scares me with this team is doc’s coaching in the playoffs. It frightens me when they get out to a big lead. Cause his teams over the last decade tend to blow those games and sudden it gets all the way back down to one or two. Imo this sixers roster is good enough to at least get to the ECF. I’m not sure doc in the playoffs i trust to maximize the talent or have the right rotations. 

Glenn should have been fired three times over by now

The media is obsessing over this AJ story.   It's been 4 days and they're still talking about it.   I hope AJ goes for 150 on Sunday.   It was a running game performance against the GMen.  AJ, Devonta, Goedert had to take a backseat to the running backs and Jalen this game.  We've had games like that this season.  Like Greenbay and then we aired it out in games against Titans and Steelers. (Remember when Devonta's numbers were crazy low for like 5 games).  I know AJ definitely wanted more than 6 targets and I'm sure he was frustrated on that missed TD pass.  But they are trying to paint him as some WR Diva when he's been anything but that this whole season.

Ideally, a player wouldn’t be sulking/pouting/whatever on the bench in the closing minutes of a playoff win. It doesn’t look good.

But it’s a nothing burger at this point. It needs to get escalated several more levels before it becomes something, but folks always need something to complain or worry about.

Either AJ or Smitty will - the 9ers consistently allow #1 receivers big games (their corners aren’t good, and Hufanga really leans into the SS role and is schemed that way).

This media is ridiculous. Nothing there but let's try to start a fire out of nothing because we are a bunch of drama story seeking a-holes. 

If there was NOTHING there- SIri wouldn't have had to console Brown on the bench. 

I am concerned there will be a serious effort to force the ball to Brown this weekend, rather than take what they are giving you we will force throws trying to make Brown happy- if we start seeing Hurts throwing into dbl coverages to Brown rather than hitting open guys, this will be an issue.

Nice article by Sheil.

The thing I liked most was about Sirianni; after the 53 was set he told every single player what their role was in front of the entire team.

I just think the cameras caught him at that moment but it's turned into him not being happy about us blowing out the GMen.   I just think he's a strong competitor and wasn't happy about that missed TD pass.   I also think the Media needs "Stories" for this NFC Championship and this happens to be one.

I agree, I also think Goedert can do some damage.  Quez  can be a sneaking threat because the 49ers will be focusing on AJ and Devonta for sure.  

GMFB just had a segment by Peter Schrager…he said the X factor in this game could be two Eagles defensive assistant coaches (Scudder and McDonald).  They both were defensive coaches for Iowa State for three of the years that Brock Purdy was quarterback there. 
 

Big deal or little deal?  I thought it was interesting…

there's been quite a few diva moments from him since the trade.

by quite a few you mean 2 non stories

Interesting thing from GMFB.  2 Eagles D assistant coaches (DK McDonald and Tyler Scudder) used to work at Iowa State College when Brock Prody when he was QB there. A quiet little thing to keep an eye on when we play them on Sunday.

Little deal. From so long ago, they're not gonna know anything of value that's not already on tape.

Yes…very overstated.  Quite a few would be T.O.  He’s not on the same planet as that guy when it comes to Diva-ness.

Yup, they're f'n disgraces to our team. They look to try and cause controversy and dissension within the team where there is none. We finally get the true #1 receiver that we've been wanting for years and the disgraceful media act like this. It's like they want AJ to be a diva. F'n nuts and they should be ashamed of themselves.

It's sounding like you don't have much faith in the offense or the team at this point.

It's the NFC Championship Game.  They're not going to be throwing into double coverage just to make one player happy.  Yikes.
