week 12 hawks @ eagles

[_phiLLies_]

eagles favored by 1, even though the seahawks are 5-0 on the road and have an extra week to prepare.

seahawks #4 offense vs eagles #9 defense
eagles #23 offense vs seahawks #25 defense

tough for the defense to keep holding after giving up just 13, 14 and 17 the last 3 games. unfortunately, i think it's a slightly higher scoring version of the pats game. hawks 24 - eagles 17. maybe the offense can avoid looking like complete shit and stop turning it over deep in our territory.

Due to the lack of healthy, competent receivers, I think that no matter how hard Carson tries, he doesn't have the supporting cast to beat the Hawks. Wilson may be the MVP this year.

I don't have a lot of confidence right now but I think the young guys step up and make a difference. 27-24 Eagles!!!

Looks like Clowney may be out for this game ... that helps a little, but even then, I'm not sure how we're going to produce much Offense. Alshon looks like he'll give it a try, but he won't be anywhere near 100% if he plays; Howard looks like he'll be inactive again this game; Agholor is questionable with a hurt ego ... the rest of the receivers are non-existent even when healthy ... Honestly I have no clue how we're favored by 1 this game, but Vegas always knows what they're doing; that's the only thing giving me hope this game which we really need to win. Our only shot imo is if the Defense stands on their head like they did last week against New England ... otherwise this will be a long day.

Eagles promote Greg Ward, place Rudy Ford on injured reserve.

He could start the game, as Agholor may miss the game.

Looks like it's going to be Matthews, Hollins, JJAW, and Ward out there. At least they don't have to deal with Clowney with Lane out.

And Herbig still can't make the cut.

 

[Guy Incognito]

This one's going to be ugly.

No Lane, no Howard, no Jeffery or Agholor, probably some Vaitai at LT.

As soon as the secondary healed up, the offense fell apart. No Clowney would be huge for the pass protection.

Maybe Ward gives them something that the Seahawks secondary isn't prepared for, but I hope Sanders and Ajayi are ready to answer the bell today.

Our WR situation is inexcusable.

Our WR situation is inexcusable.

Mack Hollins has the most catches of all the active WRs today.

i like ward and thought he should have made the team to start the year. hopefully he gets some balls thrown his way today. no excuse why this team can't grind it out on the ground though regardless of all the injuries.

Nelson is out? I didn't see him get hurt last week.

 

[northeastphillyguy]

Love my Eagles! Seahawks too tough for us. Final: 23=17 Hawks.

 

[John]

Let's Go Eagles.

He needed a mental health day!

 

[_phiLLies_]

He needed a mental health day!

yeah, well, ertz will need one soon if wentz keeps pathetically missing him.

 

[SU Nittany Tide]

Receivers have a total of 14 catches this year.

 

[_phiLLies_]

elite throw there to sanders.

 

[BPNAZ]

elite throw there to sanders.

Clearly not having Jeffrey agholor or djax was the reason for that miss

 

[Rey]

That was a potential TD ... like was talked about on last weeks threads, Wentz seems to have a really hard time when throwing to RB's. That wasn't even close ... maybe the wind affected it, but that throw seriously sailed.

 

[Screamin Eagle]

Wentz has a hard time throwing in general
