Would've liked to see a normal run there but whatever

These seem like completely unnecessary hits on Hurts. Hand the ball off.

ok but a guy like Simmons is a big setback for his development. Simmons isnt depth. 

You put your best guys on the field and if ends up Brown and a traded S then they both play 

Why?

He held up today.  A lot of concern about Donald coming in to the game.  Opeta did enough to shut him down when Donald was over him.

 

 

That was a bad spot... and they didn't give Hurts the Tom Brady reach.  

 

 

 

eagles always shut Donald down with scheme. I wasnt concerned about that matchup at all and it has nothing to do with some weird confidence in Opeta. I expected him to just be in the way hopefully enough, and let the scheme win. Thats what happened.

Kill hurts more when the game is over. Coordinator is an idiot. 

I thought he reached the ball across watching live.  It was before the whistle too.

waste of resources. there are other positions which would be more useful.

A weird silver lining is that Hurts and the offense are already in playoff form for winning in shootouts.  I am really, really down on the secondary.

What are Mahomes and Tua going to do?  March up and down the field with relentless big plays?  We are 5-0 with every qb we’ve faced doing the same damn thing.  
 

SF is a different animal due to that defense.

Are they though?  The RZ offense is pretty pathetic.  That's kind of important for a shoot out.  In a shoot out, you need 7s, not 3s.

Minnesota is hanging with KC. Down 7 with the ball.

You just know we are going to have to recover an onsides kick to seal this.

Check my bonus prediction.

I thought they should’ve kicked the field goal. Cause if the rams get a td they still need onside and another td 

At that point, just kneel Rams

Does Carter normally play with no gloves on?

5-0.

VICTORY!!!!

Everyone knows Big Dom

5-0!

Dominant performance. Sirianni needs to start trusting Hurts in the red zone and the Eagles will be fine. Hope Howie shores up the secondary with a trade at some point.

Pretty easy win all things considered.

Need @mattwill to check the results. I want to see if I won this week!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jalen Hirts in his 3rd season as the starting QB has taken the Eagles on back to back starting the season at 5-0 for the first time in franchise history. 

 

@Texas Eagle probably internally seething over it.
