Also turnovers and penalties. They’ve definitely hit a rut. This isn’t good enough by any means. They have time to clean it up but they can’t be dropping games while they figure it out.
They aren’t built for the playoffs they will get beat
Totally agree. If they lose this one then they may not even get a home playoffs game. Next week vs Tennessee is a big test and still got a big one in Dallas too
Oh it still wouldn’t surprise me to see them end with the 1 seed but they will be very beatable in all rounds.
Not even get a home playoff game?
They’ll have Jordan Davis Dallas Goedert CJ Gardner Johnson and Avante Maddox back. Those guys play important roles in what they do. I disagree on them not being built for the playoffs. They can win games a bunch of different ways. They can run the ball. They play complimentary football. Up until recently they’ve taken care of the football. They have a plus OL. When they get Jordan Davis back as well as the two pieces missing in their top 5 in secondary they’re built to win games in the cold and wind.
A team like the niners or Cowboys will shut down their ground game and spy Hurts. They aren’t going to get clobbered by anyone but they will be very beatable. Most teams are though.
We will see. When they need the games you’ll see early season play calling and the Eagles will make the defense play Hurts run. They’ll have Hurts reading guys like Parsons instead of blocking him and make him wrong all game.
Yup we will see. In my opinion someone is going to hold them to 17 pts and when they do the defense is not good enough to win that game. Let’s see how it plays out.
They’re very capable of holding themselves to 17 with turnovers and penalties.
I guess......but if, say, I'm UM and just won at OSU I'm not sure I'd like the idea of having to beat them again to win the conference.
Looking like 6-11. I think they win vs Atl and Car. Possibility those two games are just a split and 5-12. Pick is likely to be top 10. Not likely to be top 5 though.
