1. No NFL team leaves talent evaluation to someone who has never been involved with football personnel on the playing field level.
2. Every NFL team has talent on their defensive line. Aggression has everything to do it. I watched the Bengals game. The were aggressive.
3. Philadelphia uses their reserve offensive lineman and that back up tight end, who can only block, liberally. Their center and right tackle are not youngsters.

It’s time to stop with the Roseman is some kind of wizard nonsense. If the Eagles have an advantage over the Cowboys at GM it’s that Roseman is smart enough to know he can be fired.
1. Howie as the GM is in charge of the personnel department. You can say whatever you want but Howie is 100% involved in those decisions.
2. Incorrect. The Eagles are more talented than just about every group along the d-line. “I watched the Bengals game. They were aggressive .” WTH does that even mean? The Bengals d-line was more talented than the Rams o-line which is why they dominated the LOS.
3. You’re just wrong. The Eagles do not use their reserve o-lineman to keep people fresh. Stoll is the second TE. T, G and C never come off the field except for injury.

Team is doomed and done for sure. Rest of the season might have a few fun moments but the Cardinals game definitely showed us who this team really was. Eagles are sadly clearly superior. Unless Hurts or their O-line goes down, they’ll easily win the division. Commanders in 2nd, maybe us in 3rd. Just frustrating.
Oh well. You might as well watch golf or beach volleyball on Sundays. Why waste your time

The point is no one said the Bengals defensive line was the most talented in the league. But they were aggressive and made a difference. Every team’s defensive line can do than on a given day. Stop with the Eagles worship. It’s ridiculous. They’re going to lose five or six games and I guarantee the teams that beat them are going to play very aggressively.

Philly lost 3 pro bowlers in 2017, Jason peters, darren sproles, and carson wentz.

Lost their best linebacker jordan hicks, special teams ace chris maragos, and kicker caleb sturgis.

They won the superbowl. Hope that gives you some idea how they do.
Ok, not 4 pro Bowlers. Better off without wentz. did they ever lose 3 pro bowlers on the line? You showed one.

We have a good team here too. Slightly worse without Diggs.

But Eagles are far and away the better team. There's nothing wrong with acknowledging that.

They haven't missed a beat since last year and now added a dangerous RB to the mix.

We can beat them on a good day, but they're gonna rack up a lot of wins.

And yet the choking QB is Philly’s daddy hanging 40 on them last year. Look I am just as angry as everyone on the loss yesterday but hanging that game on Dak entirely is a joke. Stop with this Hurts crap, he has looked meh this year. Wait till they meet a D that will slow their run game down and is blitzed in the pocket. That team ain’t winning nothing this year once again with that secondary that can easily be exploited.
let’s hope but… it could be… wait until their passing game returns to last year‘s level… It could go either way.

You are trying to make a point that aggression is a difference maker in NFL games. It’s not, talent, scheme and execution makes the difference. The Bengals D-line dominated the Rams o-line because of talent differences not aggression. Every player in the NFL is aggressive,
Eagles will lose but it wont’t be because the other team was more aggressive,

People get offended since the truth hurts sometimes, i’m still waiting for someone to actually bring up facts to support how the boys are a better ran organization then the eagles are right now
