Early (and late) Game Thread

The haters love using double standards.

How dare they lol....

I’m surprised Hurts is playing as well as he has been. I would be very happy to be wrong about him.

if the Saints keep losing, the Eagles could have a top-five pick next year

All against trash teams. Wait until they face a real team.

Yeah, we're looking like real world beaters out there.

Either way, the Eagles are not playing down to their competition.

 

[The Natural]

That wasn't a dime stop it lol.

You're being disingenuous. We're all Cowboy fans here but you honestly going to say Hurts hasn't made a great throw all game? Cmon. It aint a slurp fest its just giving credit where its due. If another QB made the same throws we wouldn't be giving all the credit to the receivers. That's all I say since we aren't allowed to say specific names.

Who is a real teamEagles by far one of the most talented teams in the NFC. Cowboys have done nothing in FA to keep pace

Come back when they play an above .500 team as Dallas did by defeating the AFC champs with a backup quarterback. Sorry you missed that game.

Eagles will smoke us. Problem is their team will be good years - big time trouble.

They have two firsts in the 23 draft, theirs an NOs (who based on todays play seems to need it). Point being they have options to build around or move on from Hurts.

"haters", is such a childish word.

Will this be the season that NFL teams finally accept the reality that Wentz just isn't that guy? The Colts tried it and he stunk. Now the Commanders are learning the same thing. Wentz is basically backup material at this point.

TY Mods for moving that dreaded eagle's thread.

"haters", is such a childish word.

So is being a "hater".

Childish is a good word to describe it.

 

[blueblood70]

Screw Philly. Who did they beat,

we are 7-2 the last 9 and the last 3 werent even a contest, yet our own fans cheering on philly is disgraceful.

the only clue I see is you're childish. more emoji's

Don't lump me in with those guys. Beating the Bengals with your backup QB was a big win, especially coming off that dreadful Bucs game.

Ignoring the realites of the Eagles is just stupid. They are beating mediocre to bad teams but they are doing it convincingly the last two weeks. I dare any serious football fan to look at their roster right now and try to claim they aren't a talented team at this point that is clear threat to win the division (maybe even the clear favorite at this point).

No that's not what I mean. Are the Cowboys for real because they beat the Bengals? Bengals are better than anyone on the Eagles have played.

They've beaten dogs. I'm not saying they are a bad team. I'm just bringing up the hypocrisy here. No one would sit here and say the Cowboys are for real because they beat up on the Lions, Titans and Commodes. Let's just keep the same energy. They look good. Hate to say it but they look improved on last but most importantly Hurts looks improved.

"Talent" on paper means nothing. Raiders are talented on paper and they stink. There is nothing special about the Eagles except Hurts is playing special. That's the difference between them and anyone in the division right now. He deserves his credit.

It's one thing to have a bad WR corp....but its even worse when none of them can run away from anyone....DB's can cheat all day on our putrid group....they can't do that with Philly...and you don't need to see them play a "good" team to tell that. We have ZERO weapons on offense....we got nothing but JAG's.

 

[Adiba1977]

Their ol dominant. No pressure. Plus he can scramble unlike dak - they are just better

Ya...and to think ... the same people slurping the Eagles in this thread..were the same ones making excuses for Wentz.

They never learn.

Until there are 32 QBs in the NFL who can competently start and finish a football game, he'll always have a suitor
