Monday Night Football: HAWKS/EAGLES BATTLE OF THE BIRDS

[SteelersPride]

anyone follow baldinger on twitter? he gives a very exasperated breakdown of wentz's game film, thers multiple posts

My first ever parlay was 15 games $5.00 to win $100,000.00, I hit 14 and said I'll be fiithy rich in 2 maybe 3 years. Never came close after that, luckily it didn't take too many losing weeks to teach me Vegas isn't made on winners.

hahaha right......vegas knows............vegas always knows

We play Smith on week 15

Yeah, I know and that game scares me. Washington's Dline could make our life miserable and Smith could do just enough with McLaurin and those RBs. It's a bad matchup for the Hawks, imo.

There is no info on Hurts.

Saying he beats Seattle with that team 5 times out of 10 is laughable. 1 out of 10, maybe, which is more than you can say for Wentz these days.

There were wide open dudes all night that Wentz couldn't hit to save his life. Unless Hurts is Tim Tebow level bad throwing the ball he's hitting most of those guys. He's also probably escaping some of those sacks.

Wentz was epically bad last night. Any competent QB on that team scores at least 24 against Seattle in his shoes.

Dude lost $500K thanks to the Eagles late 2 point conversation

I've noticed the Eagles go for 2 pt conversions all the time.
I wonder if they fear their kicker that much or if this is just some quirk from the HC?

It’s the coach for the first couple years he got away with all the gambles and I remember saying it would catch up with him

But they need to start to play better Offensively.

Turrible game for that side

Agreed. They took a big step forward against Zona than seems like 2 steps back last night.

Eagles defense is good, love there D line especially, it’s all on there offense, they’re in bad shape ...

Their D-line is very good but the rest of the D is dreadful. What Shotty was calling was mind boggling and down right frustrating. With the weapons Seattle has, they should have dropped 35 on them with a good game plan.

Yep. Like I posted last night, the Hawks turned 37-10 into a 6 point win. It is just what they do. I have to give some credit to the Philly defensive front though. Those guys are busting their tail despite the BS on the other side of the ball. Schwartz is an idiot though. Always has been.

I absolutely agree Philly's D-line is solid and right at the tops of the league but the rest of the defense is trash. Yes Schwartz sucks but even a really good DC couldn't do much with that heap. Shotty derped his way to a win but against a better team they would have lost with that type of play calling.

I don't think they're dreadful... They are 16th in the NFL in points given up... Slay Jr is actually a very good CB... Their defense is much better than their stats indicate... Their offense is one of the worst in terms of TOP in the NFL (#27th), which puts a much greater strain on their defense...

Problem with this Hawks offense is they can't put a string of drives together... They rely on too many big plays... Kind of like a NBA team that relies on the 3 pointer... This is what concerns me come postseason time... RW is not very good on 3rd down...

Trust me, the secondary and LBs are dreadful. Slay Jr hasn't lived up to expectations when traded over and the rest of the secondary gets torched. Today's talk is to blow up the whole thing and start over.

Practice makes perfect

But I guess he plays the odds if they make them then more pressure on opposition and he'll win
