Posted January 1, 20232 yr This was a very winnable game with Hurts starting!!!!!!!!! Now, either Hurts plays next week or someone needs to be held accountable by getting fired (whether it's Sirianni or someone else)!!!!!!!!!! They'd deserve a beating as well!!!!!!!!
January 1, 20232 yr All week we heard Minshew is good enough to beat the Saints. I feel they played this a little too cautiously with Hurts not starting today but no excuse why he couldn't go next week based on "how good" he looked this past week in practice.

January 1, 20232 yr I think they just looked past this game like it would be a cake walk. Now they have to win next week. And at the rate they are going and how they look I don’t believe it. The Giants would love to stop the Eagles from winning the division and getting the #1 seed.
January 1, 20232 yr Like I said in GDT.... Minshew was horrible today and the way he played last week gave the Eagles false confidence for today.

January 1, 20232 yr Pretty sure the Giants are locked into their spot. They’re probably resting starters. Should be a cakewalk if they do.
January 1, 20232 yr If they had a game plan and their coach was able to get his team up for a critical game , there was no reason to start Hurts. We’re a better team than the Saints, but that was not the case, because of Siri and Steichen’s ignorance and grade school coaching. Minshew was bad, but Steichen failed play-calling on so many levels today. You run to set up the pass. You can run on the Saints. You did the exact opposite and made a struggling one dimensional back-up QB, struggle even more.
January 1, 20232 yr And the constant obsession with playing zone defense when they have proved time after time that this is not a zone D team…the numbers for QBs playing against our zone defense are obscene!

Nothing is a cakewalk with the Birds. Everything is gut wrenchingly complex and uncertain - always. The Gints have the benefit of resting their starters while we have to struggle with our less than 100% starters against their back-ups. And we will struggle.

It’ll be a struggle and likely a dog fight no matter what. These division games always are.

It will be like a couple of years ago when the Cowboys played us in the last week, We got destroyed. The Giants will get destroyed if we play their backups.

You did play out backups the first time. We were missing something like 10 starters. But yes, next week we’ll rest any critical or injured players.

That’s a little bit of an exaggeration but all teams are missing starters at this point in the season. Your core guys played that game and you got wrecked,
January 2, 20232 yr Yeah, start Hurts even if he isn't totally healed. Who cares if it makes his injury worse? We want immediate gratification, not a healthy long term superstar QB. And we had no reason to expect Minshew to play better than he did today, after all he absolutely sucked last week against the cowgirlz. And with our stellar playcallers Hurts would be fine. It's awesome how they'll keep running the ball with Sanders 3 or even 4 times in a row, with diminishing yardage on each subsequent run. That takes a special kind of genius with a ton of imagination. It works so well they should consider handing it off to him 10x in a row. That'll really confuse the defensive line. And oh yeah, you gotta love when the QB fakes a hand-off to a RB who then blasts empty-handed past the marker to gain while the QB gets stonewalled. It was the one time that Minshew looked like Hurts today. So yeah, let's get Hurts in there yesterday and keep him in no matter how beat up he gets.

He might have been if he was put in a better situation the first 3 drives. They got in a hole and then he had to pass against a good team who took away their strengths. Don't get me wrong he sucks and I hope he takes his bus and gets the freak out of town, but the coaching staff didn't help him either. He freaking sucks...which is another reason they should have run the ball more.
