“Eagles OC Mike Groh said incorporating Golden Tate into the offense has been difficult."
If that ain’t a motherfuckin cry for help, I don’t know what is. Get out. Doug and Howie cannot let this go on. There is no excuse. Groh is clearly not up to the task. Save our season and can his ass. And...
...back in preseason because he thought they weren't focused and their prep was off?
I thought he was overreacting, but clearly he knew/knows something wasn't right and spotted it early on. IIRC, he didn't name names, but you gotta wonder who he was thinking about. Our immediate thought was...
1. None of our games have been "fun" this year. Every single game has been "grind it out" and frustrating. Not many of the players look like they're enjoying it either. Not the post SB year I expected at all.
2. Our O PPG (22) and D PPG (20) Are right back where they were in 2016. Inexcusible...
I will say, a month in, the post SB season hasn't been fun. Whats most frustrating is outside of WR, this team is arguably more talented than last years team.
I get that for 17 weeks we're going to get every teams best effort, but damn do we let opportunities slip away that we didn't seem to...
in a little over 5 years we've gone from
-nearly a month of unlimited access to TC
-4 Select dates of TC access at the Linc
-3 Select dates of TC Access at the Linc
-2 Dates of TC Access
-2 dates with required tix that "sold out" in an hour or so
Sad. My kids 8 & 4 look forward to it every...
33 passes 16 rushes in a game he lead 21-3, had the leagues rushing leader, and was 6-0 when said rushing leader had 100 yards.
Thankfully he's not our problem, but In KC, he's got this L, the epic colts Comeback in '13, and the L to the Steelers last year where they couldn't get a TD for...
The Vikings this year remind me of the year we had Garcia @ QB and made a run (2006). I think the 06 Eagles had slightly more talent than this Vikes team. Vikes D is probably better though.
Didn't anyone else? I see no threads
Wentz looks great! I dont know if our D sucks that bad or Wentz is that much improved, but he looked outstanding today. Actually, i don't think it has much to do with our D because Wentz was absolutely putting the ball in places that nobody but the...
Peyton Manning Had the Best Offensive Teammates Among Top Quarterbacks in 2000's; Donovan McNabb Had the Worst
"As it turns out, McNabb does come in with the lowest average teammate score, just ahead of Carson Palmer. My examination, unlike Adam’s, included the offensive line. McNabb’s skill...
Are Doug Pederson and Carson Wentz on the same page about the Eagles' struggles?
"Here is what Pederson had to say when asked if mechanics were to blame for the recent struggles by Wentz.
"Strictly mechanics. If you watch some of (the throws), just the fact that we have to get him off of his...
Yes, we have limited offensive resources, but
-We're running Sproles 25x a game 17 of those times up the middle on short distance
-Fumble Mathews is rotting on the bench
(some say those are Duce's calls, but i'm not so sure)
-We're not spreading the field anymore, with the majority of pass...
Why is he poop all of a sudden?
In a weak WR corp i expected him to shine, considering he seemed to be emerging last season but instead he's been a ghost.
I hear rumors he might not even make the team (which would make 2 notable ex-Giant WRs that were busts for us, Steve Smith being the...
Shocked there's no thread already. somewhere FFL_Recruiter is pleased:
Brian Dawkins joins the Eagles' scouting staff
According to the Eagles, Dawkins is the Eagles' inaugural recipient of the Nunn-Wooten Scouting Fellowship, a program introducing former players to scouting.
Per an Eagles...
Former Eagles front office executive: Chip Kelly alienated scouts 'almost immediately'
"Right before that draft, the scouts set the board," the person said Tuesday. "Then Chip got a hold of it and totally turned it around. Scouts had no say at all in that draft. Anybody that Chip didn't want...
Here comes Greg Lewis to coach WRs!
Report: Eagles might bring Greg Lewis back as WR coach
Bet Izell Jenkins comes in to coach DBs
Antone Davis can coach the OL
Mike McMahon or Bobby Hoying to coach QBs
Barry Gardner coaches LBs
Jon Harris DL coach
Tommy Hutton or Reno Mahe STs Coach
I think The Eagles organization is in a VERY precarious position. Before, i was talking myself into the Pederson regime--and it may somehow work out--but i don't think the odds are in our favor, now that more facts about the hiring and interview process are coming out:
Lets start with Frank...
Reports: Eagles used Jaws, Bill Polian in coaching search
To what degree? We don't know. But at least Lurie and Co are/were smart enough to consult some dudes smarter than they. Adds some level of legitimacy to the hire.
15 cartoons that sum up Chip Kelly's tenure with the Eagles
Once you get past the first 2 they're pretty good. Nick Foles at the goal line was probably my favorite. Or the Riley Cooper "chips not a racist!" one.
Jeffrey Lurie needed to "take back the team" and felt "relieved" by firing Chip Kelly
"A source close to the situation said Lurie told confidantes, even before the Eagles were eliminated from playoff contention last weekend, that he wanted to "take back the team." That would indicate pretty...
"1. Tennessee, with Marcus Mariota, was not in play for Kelly. I talked to someone with knowledge of the Titans’ thinking Tuesday night who said the team “absolutely” was not waiting for Kelly, and had not been actively discussing acquiring Kelly from the Eagles for a high draft choice. One...
Report: Jason Peters took himself out
"Howard Eskin of FOX 29 in Philadelphia reported that Eagles tackle Jason Peters took himself out of the game in the fourth quarter of Saturday night’s loss to the Redskins.
The Redskins clinched the NFC East with a 38-24 win. Citing a source, Eskin...
-Played 4 quarters of football..maybe not all at the same time, but 1/3 of the team kept us in it the entire game
-Stats certainly don't show it, but Bradford probably had his most impressive game vs a team that likely game planned for him. He didn't kill us. He earned his gold sticker today
-RB...
Is kinda fucked.
We gotta figure out what to do with Bradford. After looking like poop for 75% of the year, he starts to play "well"...and gets hurt again, as is his custom throughout his 5 years in the league. If he misses time with this injury, you know it's a set back in his development...
