Not brought out much anymore.  But this is the oldest Eagles related item I own.  30 years old.  Pretty delicate and not often worn.   But it’s ready to go.  @e-a-g-l-e-s eagles!

You’ve inspired me to pull out my cheesesteak head out of the side pocket of my golf bag. It’s been in there for over 5 years, and when I pulled it out this morning, about 20 empty airplane bottles spilled out with it. 😂 @e-a-g-l-e-s eagles!

Last year my wife and son got it while my daughter and I didn’t. They were confined to our master bedroom while I did all the cooking, dishes, disinfecting for them while watching the two year old. It was a long 5 days. Hope she feels better soon. 

I’m not capable of doing most of those things, so it’s an adventure.

Important to keep either him or Steichen.  Don’t want to lose both in one offseason.  Steichen seems destined for a HC job, so it’s important to make sure that Johnson knows his OC promotion can be right here.

Reminiscent of the simultaneous loss of Reich and DiPhillipo.

The Niners play zone so much that they might be content to keep them on the field any way. 

And snaps without Goedert on the field is a win for SF. 

I’d rather stay in 11 personnel and mix in some empty or split Goedert wide, gets a similar effect.

I have a bad habit of skimming the reading parts of posts with pictures and thought you made this to eat for the game for a few seconds.

I think it’s essential that the Eagles hit on their two 1st rounders this year because pretty soon it’s going to be hard for Howie to keep winning free agency. Getting Davonta on a second contract will be tough.

Yeah the Villanova game is at the Wells Fargo Center as well today.

 Thanks for the nightmares!

Looks like I will need another hat.

That is why my suggestion is TCU’s Derius Davis.  He can be gotten later in the draft or even possibly as a UDFA, and comes with considerable kick and punt return cress.  
 

I would also love to see his QB in our UDFA signings … Max Duggan, whose playing style is quite similar to Hurts’

Yeah, I’d love him late/UDFA.

I’d probably look for more of a blue chip guy as well though. Someone who is more of a traditional WR who could step in if Smith or Brown got hurt. Two guys I like a lot are Kayshon Boutte from LSU and Jalin Hyatt from Tennessee. I’ve seen their names mentioned all over the place though, from late first to sneaking into the third round, so I’m guessing early to mid second maybe?

I like Josh Downs a lot too as sort of a rich man’s Davis.

Definitely an analysis that is worth watching and taking in … all the way to the end.  It prompts several thoughts on my part. 
 

1) regarding dropping from the #1 defense when there is ho presnap motion to #22 when there is, I’d like to see the game by game splits on that.  I suspect the drop is minimal in the games where we had both CJGJ and Maddox, but the drop is even worse than #22 in the games where we didn’t have them.

2) Young’s point about the West Coast teams being different, and the East Coast teams not seeing a Shanahan/McVay style diverse offense is correct only up to a point. The Eagles Defense practices against a high presnap motion diverse Offense every day.

I think a lot of it is us having a big lead and letting the other O complete convert and run the clock for us

Let’s Go!

Yeah, my initial takeaway from that video is that it’s plausible Philadelphia has seen such a limited amount of presnap motion that the small sample size is a bit warped by a few big plays. I have no doubt they’re better against no motion, but going from the best against that to one of the worst against the alternative implies something else is going on there.
 

Perhaps teams are going more motion when it’s a close game and stop doing it when they’re behind, which is where our pass rush thrives. Or maybe it’s far more common on quick throws to gain short yardage for 1st downs, stuff harder to defend against. Could be a number of things

Just wanted to take the time to congratulate @RememberTheKoy on being the only poster to claim that Hurts would be this good. I’m sure he’s suspended again but he deserves love from us all.

If the Eagles win the SB, just pay him market rate and move on.

Howie will also 100% try to get this done before Burrow/Herbert sign their extensions.

You’d think he’d know better at his advanced age. 

hours to game time !!!!

@LeanMeanGM.

This is is the most anxious I've ever been before a game, in 2017 I was like the eagles never win a Superbowl so no big deal now that they have one I feel like their are more expectations and opportunity for me to be let down.

Having said that 

Birds 20

Niners 13

Zach Paschal has a TD.

.

 

my pick for first score today

So, question for the Bloggers, what are you going to do between now and kickoff to keep from going crazy?

I'm going to take Wes out for a bird hunt, followed by a bath and a haircut. Should be getting close to game time by then. Don't feel like listening to the Pundits rehashing the same what ifs all morning. Whatty ya got?

Edited, Bath and Haircut for the doggie...

Might watch a movie, maybe Creed or Top Gun

What a dick

Those going to the game today better be ready to give Niners fans some serious heat from beginning to end.  I want to a**hole cheers any time one of those **** stands up.  I want to see double birds in their faces all day.  Refuse to sit down no matter how many times that crabby old man behind you says "down in front."  Do your part!!
