Eagles post game

[Sportster 72]

I think Forbes will be fine long term.
owe
He bit on play that he shouldn't have that was set up by multiple screens that he came into force.
He also bit on a play that was odd for that part of the game, it worked but allowed Washington to tie the game;.

I think it is smart to pass judgement after four games

The loss was disappointing, but y’all’s crazier than fuck. This team was competitive. The eagles have possibly one of the greatest Olines in the history of the game. Hurts would be pathetic behind the redskins line. No player was perfect that’s for sure. They lost as a team, but also look like a team that can grow and get better. I remember the same complaints about the defense this time last year. They only went on to finish out the season as atop ten D. How about the bills thumping the best offense in the league?

We need to start looking at analytics. We should have gone for two. A two point conversion is 50/50. We were 8.5 point dogs to a superior team on the road…that means we have a 25% chance of winning.

i already commented on the 2 point try. You damn well know if RR went for 2 and we didn't get it he would have gotten crucified for that call. He played it safe went for the Xp and won the coin toss. Both offense and defense had a chance to get it done in OT but we failed. I wanted RR to kick the XP.

That was nice. Dyami looks ready.

 

[eaglesnut]

If his guys were gassed, wouldn’t the defense be gassed?

There would have been fresh Eagles out there. Eagles are deep on the Dline.

 

[eaglesnut]

He was fakin the funk. He was either scared n/or still has more confidence in the Skins suspect defense.

The offense needs to be more consistent from week to week.

Go get n work out some OL, Ron. Not some guy who's an average OT on his best day, but can fill in as a shitty OG if needed. Stop drafting college OTs who can't play OT in the NFL. Hire an OL coach who can coach a player up. When was the last time a Skins OL coach did that


And every year some beat writer writes some shit about Hudson like all he needs is yadda yards yadda. And every year

The Eagles have drafted college OTs and made them guards for 2 decades. Yes, we coach them up with the best Oline coach in the game. But its an established method for finding pro guards.

I am a Tress fan but can't believe anyone has said that 30 yard punt in OT hurt.

The Eagles punter is usually the worst player in the stadium. Some of these punters blow close games almost by themselves.

Forbes competed. Brown is a load and he's been pissed off the last two weeks. He basically runs the offense right now, because he whined about his involvement.

Overall good for his development to go toe-to-toe like that. After he got burnt he was right back there in AJs face even though he's giving up 50 lbs.

were you surprised the Eagles went for a TD on that last drive in regualtion? Great game by the way.

 

[eaglesnut]

He ran out of two clean pockets in the first half and to me that's when you know a QB sucks. But he hung in all day and made a ton of 3rd down plays. It's a game of inches and when the game was on the line he wasn't off by much.

Yes. Especially after last week's 10 minute game ending drive. Possession matters most at the end of a game.

Forbes definitely had a rough day. You make some good points, he’s a rookie and lotta games left to grow and develop. Brown is a beast and had some incredibly explosive plays, gotta give him his due

i agree. It actually game us a shot by Brown scoring. Which we did tie it. That was a crazy move by the Eagles coaches. You have the best kicker in the league.

Beginning to think we might have taken the wrong CB. Appears Gonzalez is further ahead at this point.
For all we know, Forbes can be a 10 time pro bowler and Gonzalez can be out of the league in 2 years. Sample size is way too small obviously.

Guess we will see, that was def a tough matchup for a rook.

Forbes is not a bust nor will he be. Call me a homer but I think his ceiling is pro bowler and his low is average starter in the league.

The more I read about Gonzalez, the more I think he entered the league better prepared. I think Forbes has the higher potential, but Gonzalez is more consistent....at this point. We have no real sample size.

He is money.

Was this the first time our O scored a TD on its opening drive this season? Anyone know?
