Another season, and Eagles are clearly the better team

[Sydla]

Yes I know

Great.

So there's nothing all that outrageous making the claim right now that Philly is better. In fact, it's probably the more logical conclusion at this point. Philly hasnt looked all world but they are 3-0 and did enough to win. We got smacked around by a bad football team, exposing some discussed weaknesses some of us feared we had.

Philly is better right now. And if you were betting your life savings, you'd probably be wiser betting on them to win the division at this point. Doesn't mean we can't. Doesn't mean we are a bad team. We likely will make the playoffs. But Philly is just better right now.

Own them? How many NFC championship appearances and super bowls in the past 30 years..boys have zero..,

How many teams have never won a Super Bowl in their entire existence? 13

Now, to contribute, tell us how many playoffs have all teams entered in YOUR 30 year clamor.

All of those 30 years don't mean a thing now. This team is here and now...now contribute something beyond another boatload of crap.

Bye. Go be an eagles fan.

 

[OGSixshooter]

not that we didn’t already know, but eagles going on the road and dominating against an inferior opponent..

Facts. They've done that several times this year. Nick Soriani and the Eagles...can't believe that they stole Jalen Carter!!! Jalen Carter >>>> Mazi Smith. Mazi may be serviceable...he'll NEVER be Jalen Carter.

 

[OGSixshooter]

Jalen is not better than dak. I think he can be but he isnt right now. I also dont want us to extend dak

I'll but this take and I agree. Jalen has not had his cupboard depleted and THEN had to operate. He also has like 15 seconds to complete pass plays. That will change.

When will people learn the season isn’t written in Week 3?

EXACTLY, It's week 3!!

 

[DallasInDC]

Eagles are better because they have a better QB and are better in the trenches on both sides of the ball

So let's compare QBs:

Turnovers Dak 1, Hurts 4 (1 fumble lost)
TDs Dak 3, Hurts 6 (3 rushing)
Comp % Dak 67.6, Hurts 67.7
Yds/att Dak 6.3, Hurts 6.9
QBR Dak 65, Hurts 44.2
Qb rating Dak 90.6 Hurts 84.5
Total yds Dak 647, Hurts 640

Looks to me for the 1st 3 games of this season Hurts being the better QB is a false narrative.

Yes lets compare them


Hurts in 2 years as a Full-time starter

2-2 record in playoffs
1 NFC Title
1 SB appearance

Dak in 7 years as a Full-time starter

2-4 record in the playoffs
Never got past the divisional

There's plenty of good Hurts/Dak debate, but this isn't it.

Hurts' two wins in the post season were against the Giants and a QB-less 49ers team. He was practically escorted to the SB.

And 1 of his losses was arguably a top 10 QB playoff performance of all time (Super Bowl).

 

[Nova]

I think the most annoying thing to me is that I can't hate the Eagles, right now.

Arguably the worst fans in sports (not loyalty wise, but behaviorally speaking), but the team itself is actually likeable with guys like Kelce and Hurts. And ya know what? Most of their guys actually love the culture there, so they're doing something right.

I loathe our culture.

 

[Rayman70]

water is wet and the Eagles are still the best team in the east. Barring a big setback with Hurts, this will not change.

And how did he play in the Super Bowl?


If the roles were reverse, the homers would 100% laugh at Dak’s playoff resume

 

[JW82]

Oline/dline. Biggest gaps.

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

If the Eagles are better than us it's more than the quarterback. It's the coaches and players also. Dallas need adjustments from top GM to bottom.

Jerry isn't in a casket....so the GM and the dynamic won't change for a while yet (not that I want him, or anyone, in a casket...especially knowing his idiot son Fredo will be calling the shots for 20 years after that happens) but that's just the way things are.

Everyone unanimously agrees (who dont have an agenda) that he was superb in the SB.

He had a random uncharacteristic fumble...that was costly....but aside from that he was arguably better than Mahomes.

THIS year.....so far.....he's been different though

 

[BoyzBlaster]

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

Ok smart guy:
- Cool hologram of owner
- Stupid crypto partnership
- Multiple legal actions against owner
- Nepotism as a business model

I'm taking about this season right now... all the other noise in the background doesn't matter.

 

[BoyzBlaster]

One glimmer of good news?

Hurts seems off. At least early.

He looks like the Hurts from 2 years ago, but not last year's version. I expect he will turn it around but will be interesting to watch. Maybe it's a mental thing with that huge contract.

cool, this season all of these qbs are better than Dak:

Tua
Mahomes
Cousins
Stroud
Goff
Wilson
Dobbs
Love
Minshew
Jackson
Mayfield
Purdy
Herbert
Smith

That same sentiment applies to Washington and the NYG, and every other team not named the Chicago Bears.
