OT: Philadelphia Eagles: Defending The Crown: 2018 Season Part Four

[Captain Dave Poulin]

The good news is that the rest of the division is pure trash

Dak is going to do just enough to keep them from drafting a QB until it is too late and they have to start over again, or sign some bum like Case Keenum lol

 

[Cody Webster]

Terrible play call by Houston

Dak blows. Sooner they realize that sooner they’ll turn it around.

Luckily they’re not going to.

I am not watching tonight's SNF so it's comforting to hear that dak is still shitting it up. I can only imagine how bad the ratings for this game must be outside the state of texas.

I haven’t even turned it on and I’m a degenerate.

God, that Friday Night Lights theme song is GOAT

To be honest, I don't entirely blame the refs - Reffing is hard enough as it is, but when you add the inane rulebook and some of the new penalties/rules, it doesn't put them in a position to succeed.

Yes, I'd like to see them do better, but adjusting the rules would help them out greatly.

i totally see your point...its like they just get past the ridiculous "what is/isnt control for a td " controversy,

then its on to "this year were going to put an emphasis on whats lowering your head..." garbage,

then its emergency meetings to clarify the changes to the "roughing the qb" rules...its insane.

as you say imo the inane rulebook and new rules are the no.1 problem. the league should leave the rules alone and use common sense.

in the end its the on field officials are the ones looking even more incompetent.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

That's a joke of a call. Unless they are enforcing the rule differently than they did from the 70s through around 2005. And I kind of suspect they are.

 

[FLYguy3911]

That was the worst sneak I’ve ever seen.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Probably Bill O’Brien’s last season in Houston.

 

[Fire Tortorella]

Just me or did they miss a RTP on Watson?

 

[FLYguy3911]

Watson isn’t living up to the hype.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Hope the Cowboys keep Jason Garrett & Dak forever.

 

[Jray42]

At least the Cowgirls and the Giants lost today

Watson isn’t living up to the hype.

Tell me about it

 

[Rich Nixon]

More like melting the crown am I right.

 

[achdumeingute]

Well, we will always have LII 52.

The schedule is just too darn hard to lose to the Bucs and Titans and not have it affect us. Rams, Saints, Panthers are all going to be difficult games. Pretty much have to run the division (possible because everyone sucks, but difficult), our margin is used up.

The defense isnt forcing turnovers, and the offense is getting no big play easy TDs. Everything is coming so difficult.

At least wentz looks like he's the real deal.

I just don't get it this year. All the strengths of last year are either being ignored or just not working at all. Also seems like Doug is double guessing himself. Where he once seemed assured he's now panicky.

I felt like if it were a 5 quarter game we'd have won that easily, but we've not convinced once yet this year.

I guess the dogs are not hungry anymore....

I have faith they'll pull it together and this division will keep them in it. I think the short offseason, and probably the lack of dedication during that time, coupled with people coming back from injuries, people not playing in the preseason, and the injuries the to the skill positions have compounded to make this giant mess.

The main ongoing concerns to me are the lack of depth at D line causing them to move away from their rotation strategy, Schwartz's unwillingness to adjust his defense, and the loss of the offensive coaches. Even though Doug called the plays it's pretty clear that Reich and DeFilippo had a say in the strategy.

 

[1865]

Short offseason? It’s still 8 months long!

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

9-10 wins probably wins the division this year fortunately. I don’t think the other teams have the rosters to be a 11+ win team.

 

[BigToe]

That EDP video lmaoo he’s so weird.

 

[bennysflyers16]

Safe to assume Jay Trains career is over.

 

[Protest]

what the actual f***

 

[Jray42]

Did not see that coming, that really sucks for Jay. Hope he’s able to still get a contract after this year, but I just hope it’s somewhere else.


.... Trade for Blount, anyone?
