Did you all see that run game last night?? They kept running the ball last night, you know why??? Because the Vikings couldn't stop it!!!

If Kellen Moore was their offensive coordinator, he would have STOPPED doing what works the best to toss in useless passes and trick plays.

And for the people who defended Kellen Moore by saying "sometimes you gotta mix it up". The Eagles showed you that is totally BS!!! If they can't stop it, you keep doing it.

That's common damn sense!!!
The Eagles won because of the turnovers. Especially, the touchback which caused a 10 point swing.

..what I saw last night, was weaker team than last year. Chapter closed. ;)..

Absolutely, but the media still see’s them as some juggernaut ready to make the Super Bowl. I am sorry, but we are going to crush them.

They’re also fighting. AJ Brown and Hurtz got into it. AJ Brown is quite the team player(sarcasm) and Hurtz isn’t the leader that Dak is (truth). This may seem like “competitors being competitive” or however they spun it but truth be told when Dak throws his interceptions, and he did it a lot last year, all the offense supported him. And one other thing, thank God we don’t have selfish players that complain and pout when they’re winning a game. That’s some issues right there. We’ll have to monitor that as we go.

I am thinking the same thing. Both their wins have been by 6 points or less and they aren't playing the best teams either. They had the late afternoon game Sunday, so I saw them right before our fantastic Sunday Night Game. Pats had a chance with minutes left, it was a close game. Not sure about last night, don't get the place the game aired on, but score looked very close again. They aren't exactly blowing people away like the Cowboys or Niners did.
They are finding ways to win without playing their best ball. Why don't people see this ? The bar is raised so high from last year , of course if they don't look the same , people will automatically go to they suck, but that line of thinking is misguided. If a team is on the verge of making the playoffs and playing well in Dec, will games from Sept matter ? The only thing that matters is win and losses now, not how pretty a win looks.

They aren't as deep as the Cowboys.

Their secondary was already looking suspect

Evidently the owners don't mind or they would put in grass fields.
Grass field look great until the winter months hit. They become sloppy and dangerous in their own way.

some players actually prefer turf because of the speed.

The league Is actively using science to come up with the best solution. There is a combination of grass and turf that is currently being tested.

Owners don’t want their 200 million dollars injured so it’s a complex issue.

in the end, injuries will still occur and people will still complain

The turf they use now a days is the soft turf right? Not the Veteran Stadium turf back in the day.
But cleats still stick in it and won't rotate, which tears tendons at a much higher rate than grass.

If this is so, Howie will 100% trade for a nickel and it will probably be an upgrade

Unless it’s the Cowboys.
Not this season...this Dallas team is even par here and now with Philadelphia and San Francisco. These will be momentum driven contests but well contested by all three. No sub-pars in this present group.

...VIks flat out, stunk up the joint. Take half the turnovers back. VIks win.

Viks D, was stout for the most part. Didnt help the offense kept giving ball back.
**THIS** The Jefferson miscue with the touch back right before the half hurt the most. Instead of possibly going to half time with a 14-7 lead, they let Philly drive down the field for a FG as the half ended. Now, the score is 13-7, Philly. The Vikings looked like they never recovered from that blunder.
