I was watching Forrest Gump with my son and just following a little on cbssportsline. Looks like both defenses sucked last night? Also how did the QBs play? I expected to see similar stat lines for both but one guy threw for only 160 yards and both had shitty comp %'s.

You should have seen the handoffs that Carson was making.
From every angle he had perfect form. It was truly a sight to see.

I just watched some highlights. What a horrible throw by Rodgers at the end. That's just amateurish to try and force it into the muck on 2nd down.
Loved this quote from the Philly CB though. Sounds like a kid with his head screwed on straight: ''I'm a no-name out there, so when somebody that doesn't get a lot of playing time gets in the game, that's the target,'' James said. ''That's the game plan. Coaches tell you, `Go at him. That's the weak link.' But as the weak link, I still have to be as prepared as the starters.''

Your D has sucked for a couple years. You gave up 500+ yards and still managed to steal a SB.
Didn't both defenses give up 500+ yards that day? :scratch:

They both gave up a shit ton. Don't remember the actual #s.

Flash forward NEs D hasn't given up a TD yet.

Point being Philly's D has and still sucks.

Rodgers 64%
Wentz 59%

I think 64% is better than shitty.

The game was about timely plays Eagles defense made some and Packers defense didnt. Officiating was trash though. Missed calls all over the place for both teams.

Calm down and go to bed. Anyone that is trying to decipher something from this game is already a fool.
But the first 3 games...those were telling :pound:

Yeah. I didn't do the math. Just looked at the 20ish incompletions and some of the poor throws I saw on the highlights and from the little bit that I watched. But I was wrong on that. In and of itself as a stat, 64% is fine. Also I thought when I had it on they had a stat saying he started 10-10? So after that he was much worse, but those 10 passes of course do count. my bad :thumb:

AR did have a pic and a fumble to go along with that 64%. Slung it 53 times in a losing effort. Bet the Pack and their faithful wished one or two of those attempts had been runs.

He was literally called up from the practice squad days earlier. If Green Bay had just been a little more patient they would have tied it. Philly's pass defense is bad even with the top starters, but they were down to scrubs back there.

Bartender said last night that I sure drink a lot more when the Packers lose.

He finished on a downward trend because Adams was out and we are struggling to find a WR2. It doesnt help when you dont even attempt runs to keep the defense honest

You should have responded "and I tip a lot less too" :suds:

They got exposed last night on the ground for sure. Pushed around all night and I am not sure why Philly even threw down the stretch because it looked like Jordan Howard was a guaranteed 4+ YPC.

Vikings ran all over them too. They just decided to blow the game by letting Cousins throw in the red zone.

Bears didn't even try to run, and why would you with a stud like Mitch at QB
