The Rest of the Preseason

[John]

The preseason games start in 3 weeks and the regular season starts in 7 weeks.
On paper, the Eagles look like they will have a pretty good team.
Let's Go Eagles.

 

[Rey]

A lot of depth this year ... health permitting, this team has a good chance to make noise. Roseman did a phenomenal job this off season working the cap.

Offensively - terrific!
Defensively - ??? - depth at DE is a concern for me; we have depth at CB, but not sure if we have 2 or 3 stars; depth at safety a concern.
If we do not have any serious injuries - Wentz, Cox, we have good shot at 11 or 12 wins. If the aforementioned players miss a lot of the season, we may struggle to win 9 or 10 games. We should know a lot more in about 3 weeks.

 

[John]

I'm hoping that with the Super Bowl hangover no more, that 11 or 12 wins is too low.
If Wentz gels with his new offense, the defense might not have to be "great".

 

[John]

According to the Madden game, the Eagles have the highest rating.

 

[John]

Darren Sproles was signed to a 1 year deal.

 

[eaglesnut]

We're the best team in the league. Doesn't look close.

Hope we get some good guard play and this offense will dominate.

 

[djm]

I think we look really good this year. I am also very excited to see Sproles back this year.

Hope we get some good guard play and this offense will dominate.

Dillard or Peters at guard?

 

[PhillyGreen]

Dillard or Peters at guard?

Peters....even at his age he is still a top 10 tackle of not top 5.

 

[eaglesnut]

Dillard or Peters at guard?

I don't think it'll be either.

Wisniewski and Seumalo. Then hopefully Brooks comes back healthy for the stretch run.

I don't think that either Dillard or Peters should sit. Then there is Mailata.

That would be great if Mailata was the future LG.

Dillard plays when Peters rests or as injury insurance. Dillard is too light to play guard.

 

[John]

LT - Dillard
LG - Peters
C - Kelce
RG -Mailata?
RT - Johnson

 

[old duke]

Seumalo will be the LG. At least that is their plan right now. TC may sort things out.

Do you think that he would be better than Peters?

 

[old duke]

I don't know if Peters would accept a move to Guard. Again,k we'll find out in TC.

 

[John]

I would like to think that Peters would do what is best for the team but as you said "We'll see".

 

[Screamin Eagle]

Super Bowl or Bust!

I’m going to flip it, even with all the talent on the offense I believe the defense ends up as the stars!
