How did Philly look last preseason ?

I learned two things last night...

1) OBJ looks like a bit of a prima donna and lacks toughness.
2) Philly QBs are gonna (continue to) get hit a lot.
 
Just FYI on the Eagles. They scored 32 a game last preseason.

I think they have some strengths and weaknesses. They have a high ceiling if everyone stays healthy, but they're combining that with a heavy reliance on injury prone or unproven players.

Bradford
Matthews
Alonso
Ryans
Thurmond


All coming off IR. Now they have good depth at some of those spots. But other than ILB I don't like their depth on defense.

Then they've got guys at G, WR, CB and S with little to no experience.

All or most of those guys could stay healthy. All of their new guys could pan out. But the likelihood of both of those occurring isn't great.
 
The key to beating the eagles is and will always be, getting some three and outs and then leaning on that defense for some long sustained drives. Don't turn the ball over and grind them down.
 
they have looked really good in preseason so far so they look to be in contention for the division title. Its preseason so everyone says it don't mean a lot so we will see I guess.

That's what did Baltimore in. They turned the ball over and the game got away from them.

That's right. We have to run the ball run the ball and run the ball some more to keep it away from their offense.

On defense we have to pressure up the middle because their tackles are as good as any in the league as is their center, so we take advantage of the less experienced guards and run stunts constantly.

Bradford has a quicker release and is more accurate than Nick Foles. He needs to be pressured or it could be a long day.

Their backs are studs, of course we all know Murray, and Matthews is a beast when he is healthy. Can't let them guys get started.

There receivers are young and talented. The operative word is young. We need to stick them at the line, and frustrate them. They got talent, but not experience.

We'll split with them this year. It should be a fun game.
 
I can't wait to watch the Ravens be horrible offensively under the fraud that is Marc Trestman.

Cardinals' RB Chris Johnson missed Saturday's game with a pulled hamstring that could sideline him about two weeks.

Too bad the Cowboys didn't pick him up. He could have stood on the sideline with their other RB 's.
 
Basic defenses, basic packages, half of your starters for 31 teams in the NFL in preseason.

vs.

Chip's finesse up tempo offense in preseason.

His system will of course be the pre-season championship team. It is preseason and there is 0 gameplanning going on for their offense.

Calm down people. Sheesh.

Chip's offense will not be finesse in 2015. They will be a power rushing team.

Chip is probably going to run it up in preseason whenever he can so people forget who he released and why. He's probably in season " game planned" every one to ensure that outcome
