Biggest surprises in the NFC east after this last weekend IMO

Eagles Nelson Agholor after a dismal rookie season he looks like a nfl player.

Commanders Josh Dotson their top Wr from the draft from last year still is not contributing

Giants BJ Goodson was not on the radar before this game.

Giants only scoring 3 points despite Odell not playing. I expected 13-20 points from them.

How was this a surprise? They've been one of the most cohesive units in the league since Marinelli took over.

Disappointing 2 years in the league.

Have no idea what's up with Doctson. Guy was a flat out stud in college and would catch everything in his area code.

Biggest thing I noticed seeing all the teams in action is none of them besides us have any sort of running game, or quality RB's for that matter. Which is awesome. Never saw Perine so not sure where he is on depth chart however with Wash.

I don't know about Agholor, for starters this is year 3, and the long TD was a blown coverage after Wentz created extra time. He didn't do much on that play but catch the ball and shake off a poor attempt at a tackle by DJ Sweinger. Almost like Josh Doctson's long play against us in week 2, except Byron Jones made the tackle.

Biggest Dallas surprise for the rest of the East is the impact of Jaylon Smith, the young secondary and D Law.

I'm still not sold on Nelson Agholor yet. The 58 yard TD had more to do with Wentz's ability to avoid a sack. Wentz scrambled around for about 8 seconds and then threw the ball to Agholor who was not even covered for a 58 yard TD. It looked as if the Commanders secondary thought Wentz was getting sacked and quit playing coverage. Take away that 58 yard gift and he caught 5 passes for 28 yards (5.6 yards per catch).

Nah he had a good preseason. Giants fans were yapping about him before the game.

On the radar because Al & Chris talked about him on a good play. Didn't really hear his name other than that.
Doesn't mean he is not a good player, or will become a very good player. I actually had Dallas taking him in one of my muchk drafts.

But let's see how he does from there. Oh, and as for Landry Collins who had very good games against us. Didn't hear his name so much either. in on 6 tackles. Though Goodson though in on 18 tackles. However when your LB and S was in on 24 tackles wonder how many were against the run. That means your DL not doing so well.

this was more about what surprised me Goodson played well I had to look him up as he did not make my draft list. Giants soft belly on defense like you mentioned is still the LBers.

Like Bodi mentioned for a fourth rounder they may have stumbled onto a keeper.

He(Agholor) played much better in the preseason but not this well considering all their other talent at WR this was a surprise.

 

[erod]

My takeaway is that Wentz and Dak are going to be going at it for the division for many years to come. Both look like terrific quarterbacks.

Meanwhile, Kirk Cousins is counting the minutes until he can get to San Francisco with Snyder's $45 million in his account, and Eli is in slow decline.

Them playing a solid cover 2 and not a hybrid man was a surprise at how well they played IMO.

Good point on the eagles secondary without Darby I think that supplants Nelson Agholor.
Dotson was my surprise as I expected him to be a dominant force this year.

Love it.

Their number one and number two pick from 2016 hasn't contributed at all!

One is made of glass and the other wants to retire.

As in the Eagles secondary played well without Darby?

Apparently, they didn't play that well at all. I caught some radio up here in Philly and they were talking about the All-22 and the CBs got really lucky that game. Pressure saved them.
