Well you have yet to come out and say exactly what you think those posters were being - you know why, because you have been told multiple times to stop baiting.

So shut up already. Go to Reddit if you want that type of discussion.
Again, YOU shut the hell up. Apparently you have the mindset you keep hinting at. That's why you're so butthurt and won't say what YOU mean. I'll say what I damn well please about any discussion. Nobody has told me anything about baiting but you. Baiting what? Say it. Look in the mirror and slap the hypocrite you see. Respond however you want. I'm done with this discussion to spare you. There's a side of me that you don't wanna see and can't handle.

Nah. I'm good. I will repeat: It has been stickied a million times on here for you knuckledraggers to stop baiting. If you are going to bait, stop being cowardly and just come out and say exactly what you mean so you can warm the bench for a few days or shut your stupid trap since you obviously can't debate anyone who criticizes a freakin' sportsball player.

I'm okay with sitting on the bench because I say exactly what I mean on here. You obviously don't respect the rules on here, which would be fine since it's just a forum, but you're also too cowardly to just clarify exactly what you're implying. Weak.

The Eagles have the QB having the best year.. that does not mean he is the better QB. Anybody can have that one amazing year and then come crashing back to Earth as the league figures you out. It's too soon to say if Hurts can continue to grow his game or he gets swallowed up as teams start forcing him to win from the pocket.

But in other position groups?

The Cowboys have two running backs in the top 20 in the league in rushing yards and top 10 in rushing TDs.. On what planet are they "tied at best" with Sanders and Gainwell?

The Cowboys DEs have 31 sacks.. the Eagles have 25.5 . The Cowboys DEs also have 36 TFLs to 27 for the Eagles. Both groups have forced 7 fumbles. I gotta give a decided edge to the Cowboys there. The Eagles do have the much better DT group to be sure. The offensive lines have played about the same level but the Cowboys could be getting some serious upgrades here in the next couple of weeks. I'll also give a nod to the Eagles LB group just because of Edwards.. Dude is everywhere.. but I like the Cowboys safety group better.. though clearly losing Brown and Lewis have hurt the Cowboys at corner. But what they lost in experience they gained better physical tools. It's scary to go into the playoffs with two such inexperienced guys starting.. but it would not be the first time a team rode a couple of youngsters in the secondary to the promised land.

The bottom line is the Cowboys had Eagles are comparable. Who wins will be determined by who plays the best on that day. If Eagle-killer Dak .. you know the 450 yard 3 TD guy.. shows up though it's church for the Eagles.. and they know it.
I don't think we should try to be the greatest show on turf w this mediocre wr core to an extreme.


But trying to make a kelse out of Schultz'kowski or Ferguson to an extreme isn't a solution either because they just JAGs

We try to win with the same run first mentality similarly but they have just as many horses as we do running and they have three better horses at wr who are more clutch in every aspect of their game esp scoring.

I see the closeness and resemblance in talent

I just think their top 6 skilled players are better as a group in this regular season

And Aj Brown has 2 tds w 18+ yard averages in the playoffs
And the NFC playoff teams are grass

I'm taking the paper playoff stats and Brown and the most successful QB even though I know we're more Evenly matched

Our guys are dropping way too many balls

Knuckledraggers. Stupid trap. I see you lack the intellect for a civil conversation. LIke I said, I'm sparing you. Don't insult me again unless it's in the PMs where I can respond accordingly. Otherwise, let's agree to let it go.

Its not like Ceedee or our rbs we're very clutch or consistent on that grass in SF

Gallop had playoff success in 2018 4 years ago but he's had some long stretches of non scoring like Ceedee

I'm not so sure I'm that sold on any of these wrs

I keep hearing #1 and #2 labels being thrown around w these wrs but they look more like a top 15 #1 & #2 wrs to me

I'd have to take coop over CeeDee and Gallop in the playoffs he's been the top scorer in our last 2 playoff games

If I had to say who has the best shot to beat Sf the cowboys would be above Minnesota. And the Giants and Commanders

I'd take the bucs and Philly in the NFC

Prolly the chiefs and bills in the AFC

You left out the defense. They somehow always escape blame come playoff time. If DLaw and Parsons disappear like they did last year, this team is going nowhere. Our defense hasn't helped out in a divisional round playoff game since the Super Bowl winning era.

Heck go back to Green Bay 2016. Dak and the offense got blame for losing a game scoring 31 while the defense gave up 3 straight TDs to begin the game and a game winning FG with only seconds remaining.
Not this Defense this year, they can get it done without turnovers from the Offense and win ball games. We're that good this season!

Oh shut up. Dallas has owned the eagles for the past few yrs. Now you want to be all on their genitals because they beat Dallas with a back qb ol was a mess secondary was hurt. As was the dl.

For as much as fans like to talk about media being in love with the eagles, you guys seem to eat up their narrative. But like them never mention Dallas injuries. But will gobble up their agenda and mention every Philly jury after their losses.
The eagles didn’t have AJ Brown though. They got better at Wr and we got worse. Right now they have better weapons and a qb that can throw the deep ball very well and eats up tons of yards. If we want to beat them we have to eliminate the mistakes. Keep in mind they have arguably the best Oline in the league and a top three defense. We have to play our game and stop turning the ball over.

He has got to realize it’s a team game and it’s not all on him. It’s almost as he is forcing balls to rack up stats. Zeke is as good as I have seen him in years and pollard is a star. Lean on the run game and let them carry us. We don’t need all these force throws to win. We need him to stop turning the ball over and let the team rally around him...

Agreed. And run it sometimes. Take the 5-7 yards if it’s there. DBs are sold out on chasing the WRs not giving a second thought about Dak running the ball.

Dallas has the #1 offense in the nfl since Dak came back from injury. They have better weapons but still trail the Cowboys on offense. They have the the top ol in the league but still trail the Cowboys in allowed sacks. As the Cowboys one again lead the nfl in fewest sacks

Dak has made a career of having a solid TD/INT ratio.

The only thing different this year is he came back from an injury with some rust and he’s playing with arguably the worst WR corp he’s ever had outside of the year they traded for Cooper.

I agree there have been some throws that he’d like back but we shouldn’t be surprised that he’s having to force throws when we have 1 WR that can consistently get open.
Dallas has good WRs. If they didn’t, Dak would complete about 40% of his passes. It takes skill to catch all of the poorly thrown balls that are behind them, overthrown, underthrown in the dirt and thrown with too much of a lead. These WRs makes Dak look much better than he really is.

Agree with this. Jags still have a decent chance at winning their division. They play hot and cold but if they are on a going day then they beat the Cowboys unless Parsons comes back with a monster game to carry the team.

or... if we're on. which judging by the season and records we are more than they are. It's not just the Jags game to decide lol

No, they have 1 good WR and a solid TE.

MGs average yards of separation per route is almost outside of the top 100.

Actually our defense will decide if we win or not. We either stop Hurts or we don’t. Dak won’t be able to keep up with Hurts if our Defense is getting burned. Eagles game is really in Quinn’s hands. Dak will score some for sure but if it becomes a shoot out I think Hurts legs take the game.
Then it's already over. We're doomed.

This is a big play defense, but not a shutdown defense. Vulnerable against the run and all of our corners are ripe to be picked on. Terrific pass rush in 3rd-and-long situations, but teams like Philly and KC don't get into long yardage downs against our defense.

Even against this incredibly easy schedule, the passing game starts slow, and Dak is constantly throwing into coverage with wide open receivers elsewhere. It's a problem.

However, outside of Philly, Buffalo, KC, the league sucks, so there's a route to the promised land.
