They shut them out the 2nd half outside of Jalen fumbling in the red zone in the first drive of quarter 3. Eagles D isn’t as good as last year because the lack of pass rush

Their stops were just Stafford missing easy wide open throws.

You can have the perfect offense but you can’t win with this defense. 2020 and 2013 all over again.

The mcvay rams have always scared me as a cowboy fan but seeing this today has me feeling good.

Last April I saw the Rams were 25-1 to win the SB and I put $100 on them. This was before getting D Adams too. They had Philly on n the ropes in the playoffs last year and at 25-1 I like it. They are a good team that has a chance

 

[SuperBowlz]

Even a QB with an just above average ability to throw the ball around, would be doing better with the amount of weapons the Eagles have on offense than Hurts has been able to do so far this season. His total passing numbers is atrocious for three games being played this season by the Eagles.

The win the old school way by playing D and running the rock. Look what Hurts did when they were down big. 200+ yards passing a 3 TD passes in the 2nd half alone. Don’t know why after all this time people still doubt him. He’s not great but good to very good and elevates his play in the playoffs

 

[SuperBowlz]

Hurts isn’t good. People flame me for saying that but before Barkley the Eagles were trying to get him to be a drop back passer and he was bad and looked confused much of the time. Then they started running him and added Barkley and that abomination of football play tush push…

Before Barkley Hurts took them to a SB and almost topped a dynasty. 225 yards and 3 TDs in the 2nd half alone but he isn’t good.

It's good we have some depth this year but I'm really impressed with Brian Schottenheimer play calling his schemes his designs along with Klayton... Too bad we can't find a defense that can do the same thing,......

I mean this is the best play calling and scheme I've seen the way they just disguise things the motion the movement on offense it's been nice when we turn around on defense and just keep giving up scores..

Currently not a fan of the play with CD playing RB.

 

[SuperBowlz]

Hurts is garbage.

Still think that. When they went away from their run the ball first mentality and had to play catchup he throws for 225 yards and 3 TD passes in one half

Yes

To the poster who was celebrating and popping champagne after rams took a 10-7 lead in 1st qtr, now you see why you have to let things play out? Now the day will end with eagles coming back and moving to 3-0 and cowboys falling to 1-2 because the defense cant stop a nose bleed

 

[MikeT22]

We can say “Philly just finds a way to win” and that’s what happened 2 years ago and they crashed and burned. They are so fortunate to not be 0-3

We can downplay it all we want but they have been to 2 of the last 3 SBs. They have talent and the ball keeps bouncing their way. Odds on favorites while our owner/GM continues flailing.

 

[Blue&Silver]

Remember when Hurts couldn't throw the ball? It's almost no faiir

He could always throw the ball. They just had a coordinator that didn't allow it for more than 5 yards until the 2nd half of their 3rd game. I said playing not to lose was going to cost them games this year and it almost caused them this game. Letting their QB, and receivers play won them the game with a little luck blocking field goals

Pretty sure it had something to do with 2 blocked FG's.

He is what he’s always been, a one read guy that was on the verge of being run out of town when they dumbed down the offense, let him run, surrounded him by crazy talent and added that abomination of a play tush push. Without that play, Hurtz might have gone the way of Carson Wentz.

 

[Blue&Silver]

This season is just about who Philly will play and beat in the SB.

That's a long way down the road. They have a murderers schedule. Then there's injuries

You can say that now in hindsight I get it it's a risk but I watched Jamar Chase and Jefferson and these other guys do the same thing it's not always it's trying to catch the defense off guard they literally do this on all teams II promise you if you want me to point it out I'll let you know I understand now and the frustration you lose him and it was big but so was the fumble so was the interception clanking off George Pickens hands and it happens the offense is easily fixable tho those things are not gonna happen next game most likely we're gonna have a better game against the Packers which is gonna be odd but I believe we're gonna play better we may even win the game because people are gonna say it's gonna be a blowout loss..

To risk injury anytime you go out onto the field all players are gonna risk injury as soon as they jog out there he could have got hurt that same way catching a football and then getting tackled he's on the field he's playing football and it's not really like a running back an end around is not technically being a running back you do know that right that this stuff is been done for decades when you use your receiver in motion and just because he gets the ball behind the line of scrimmage does not make him a running back

 

[SuperBowlz]

Yes

That’s ridiculous man

That play has netted them about 15 yards last season. That’s just silly. He is a SB MVP and has been there twice in 3 years. A bad QB doesn’t get you to the SB like that

I have felt this way the entire time. Even feel worse about having a 155 pound WR play RB.

We have a speedy RB that we drafted on our practice squad for some reason.

Sorry dude stop saying that and I don't know what you mean by that And unless you're talking about the way they use Turpin other teams do this the way they use Lamb there is no problem with that play Yeah they're just trying to get their best players out in space and maybe try to make a chunk play.

Have zero problems with that but I agree I think they need to bring blue Actually he's not on the practice squad jayden Blue is on the active roster he's just not being made active malik Davis is over there we could use him too..

Here it is you're complaining about the run game we have one of the best run games we've had all of it together we've had a great run game so far this year and I think they need to expand it but yes if you want to try to cover up the loss of Lamb and you want to get a little more speed you bring up Blue But you could even bring Davis too and you can bring three running backs and a full back and you shorten this game and make sure that Prescott's not standing back there when he doesn't have Lamb and you can have a efficient passing game but you need to start running first and passing less for the next two to 3 weeks and I think we can do it....

If there's a time to start shortening games it's when your defense sucks it's when you're missing some of your best players you need to run the ball more They ran the ball efficiently but I want to see 30 runs against Green Bay and I want most of them to be right at Parsons We have seen this before have the full back come at him and help and chip him hard don't just try to kinda chip him I want Hunter coming into him with everything he has to wear Parsons out early bring everything make him run stretch please and then later in the game you start running away from him and make him chase the plays and you wear em out because I've seen it when he played here you can do that to him and get him out of the game do not stand back there 30 times and throw the football.

Can't expose Dak this game plan has to be run first run 2nd and pass efficiently yes we're gonna need to pass the ball but you cannot set up Green Bay to have Parsons wreck our game because that's all we're gonna hear about this week it's all you hear about leading up to the game they're gonna be talking about Parsons and I'm going to be talking about our team being able to find a way to neutralize him and if we're going to get beat it's going to be by somebody else on their defense..

Most WR's weigh 200 pounds. No reason to be running Turpin, especially after being questionable with a neck injury.

Lining CD in the backfield is not a way to get him in space.
