Crawford has a motor. He doesn't really destroy at the point of attack.

Carr threw for 300 yds and 4 TDs, they ran for 139 yards.
Bradford 295 yds and 1 TD, they ran for 172 yards. (With an extra OT period)

Whats the difference? Don't see it.

Carr is legit...

That is a very expensive motor. Too expensive if you ask me.

Especially if your playing interior... If plays break down, it's fine. But you need pressure consistently or at least collapse the pocket so the QB can't throw into his passes..

Against two teams with their best offensive lineman (left tackle) not playing. Can't win that way. I saw someone bring up Tyrone Crawford earlier, the guy is a ghost out there, I actually forgot he was on the team. Where is Gregory? I haven't heard from him since week 1. Where is Lawrence? Where is Mincey? Where is anyone outside of Hardy that can cause disruption on the defensive line?

I don't think it's on the D-Line. I think it's on the secondary and McClain.

Don't even care about the number of actual sacks. They just did not get any pressure. The rushed wide and blind and Bradford could do whatever he wanted.

He is a QB that clearly gets rattled if you knock him around and we obviously missed the memo.

How this team prepares and what they plan for blows my mind sometimes. It is almost like they overthink things.

Hardy is working his butt off out there. 1 sack but was VERY close on a couple more plays.

Greg Hardy in 4 games: 4 sacks 1INT 1FF
Defense in 8 games: 10 sacks 2INT 0FF

Lawrence has taken a step back, Mincey has taken a step back, I'll give Gregory a pass (last game for that) b/c of his injury.

The defense looked gassed by OT though. That Philly hurry up offense started wearing them down early, it was just a matter of time before it started breaking down.

And is it me or does Rolando McClain just look bad for the most part out there?

People would be going ballistic if the Raiders put 35 on us like just happened to the Steelers. Panthers just put up 37 on Green Bay. Our defense was the cause of our loss yesterday, but it's pure fantasy to think there is some defensive coordinator out there that will hold teams to 10 points a game with 4 turnovers and 4 sacks.

4 turnovers in 8 games.

We don’t like to be last in just one defensive category.

Thy get turnovers and make plays when they need them. We dont. That is how they have been able to survive without Ben and Bell and we lose 6 straight.

The Eagles entire offensive line is a patchwork line. Lane Johnson is actually a really really good tackle, he just played out of position last night. What's more disturbing is we didn't get much pressure on the side where his backup was playing at right tackle. He's a scrub.

its hard to get interceptions when their WRs are wide open on most passing plays...... our WRs seem to be triple covered, and theirs are always wide open, hard to understand how this happens.......
