Sunday Night Football: Philadelphia @ Atlanta 8:20pm ET NBC

It wasn’t a penalty. The lineman can block anyone within 1 yard of the LOS. He’s just sour grapes.

pancakes are only illegal on QBs LOL

I agree. It’s been two years of this.

One rule that really burned us is Wentz runs for the end zone dives in untouched but his kneee hit the ground and they ruled it “The QB giving up on a play”. Really fucked us cause we woulda been down 3 at the end and kicked the FG. How are you giving up on a play when you’re diving into the end zone

Another thing I don’t like about this team is the O totally gambles game after game yet the D is as conservative as they come

That was a tough one.
That Jim Swartz D is that bend don't break and when that front 4 can't get pressure, that secondary gets torched.
I don't mind the gambles if it makes sense at that time.

maybe score more than 20 points in todays high scoring NFL and worry less about what the defense did or didn't do........they were fine for a majority of that game. Pretty sure they got some pretty big turnovers in key spots.........the offense just continues to be inconsistently meh. for every drive Wentz looks amazing, theres 2 more that look horrendous, and then one where a receiver chokes

It’s the slow starts. It’s every week!! Inexplicable

maybe the script the whole 1st half?

Wentz always has a hard time scoring over 24. (except for against the giants)

Doug likes to throw the ball, so if he spots the other team two scores, it’s easier to justify throwing it 75 times.

Hahaha.

I know you’re kidding but that’s the only thing that makes sense. Haha.

Last week, they came out of halftime and established the run. That set a tone and once they did that it was easier to pass it. They should do that every week at the start of the game. Get behind that o line, run the ball, get some rhythm going, suck in some of the defenders and go play action. Stop thinking Wentz is Aaron Rodgers

They were banged up tonight but there is way too much talent on this offense for them to consistently stink for the first half each game. I think Goedert getting hurt really screwed them because they like to run out of the 12 personnel...and that was gone with Goedert hurt.

Shit. Ray Didinger just said this on the Eagles postgame show. I swear I’m not Ray Didinger.

Would you rather have a defender target him?

Can't have it both ways. The offense already has enough rules in their favor. The D is there to stop people not give them an extra 1- 2 yards.

This is a good rule.

 

[Manster7588]

That was a penalty. Olineman tackles our CB when the ball is in the air. But, yes, Julio is a freaking beast.

Ball was in Jones hand when the BLOCK occurred.

 

[jarntt]

That block by Sanu was the real deal though

 

[jarntt]

I'll be shocked if Dallas wins the division back to back. It hasn't been done in 15 years.

Shocked a little dramatic, no? It's pretty much been looked at as a two team race and even if you thought Philly was the obvious favorite two weeks ago you have to at least admit it's a little closer after this small sample size.

not true

 

[knowyourenemy]

I don’t know...but Julio credited Sanu after the game.

 

[Iggloo]

I am concerned more about the injuries than the close loss on the road. The injuries are going to force some tough roster decisions. They may need to waive some people to sign a receiver and tight end, for example.

 

[knowyourenemy]

not true

Wrong! It should have been called back because it would have helped the Eagles and that’s what I wanted to happen.

Plus it should have been called as a makeup call for what I thought was a relatively weak defensive holding call that gave Dallas another shot at a touchdown in their game.

We’ll see. There’s been no indication on how long any of those guys are expected to be out.

Did I read Philly only had two TEs on the roster after cutting a guy this week? How can you do that when you run so many 2 TE sets? That's poor roster management by your GM.
