For those who blame injuries

[Gameover]

other than maybe lee missing games, what major injuries did we have? unless you're talking about romo

Scan
Dez
Smith
Church
Claiborne(who was one of the better corners early in the season)
Lawrence
Crawford
A lot of our D Line were banged up late in the season


Off the top of my head

 

[Blackspider214]

Jay Gruden and the Commanders are missing half of their team.

They still manage to be competitive

Clap clap clap clap

 

[Sydla]

LOL. And the excuses will keep pouring in for Garrett.

 

[Stash]

Jason Peters is. They aren't reliant on the rest of those guys. If Fletcher Cox was hurt.....you'd see a big drop off on what they do. Or Wentz.

Fletcher Cox missed two games this year with an injury.

The Eagles went 2-0.

The sad thing is, the guy who made Garrett OC then HC will still be there.
Why do you think he'll make a better job with Garrett's replacement

thank ya sir. completely forgot about those

Every team has injuries. Unless youe starting QB goes down, most teams deal with it and move on. The Cowboys collapse. This points to coaching. There is no other way to spin this.

What did they do when Romo went down last year?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

LOL. And the excuses will keep pouring in for Garrett.

Cowboys were losing long before Garrett got here....and will lose after him.

Philadelphia was without their starting LT, best LB and PK last night.

And Jay Ajayi is not 28 points better than Alfred Morris.

I think their backups are better than ours. Their drop off in talent from starters to backups was less. Zeke to Morris is a big drop off. Tyron to Bell is a damn CLIFF. And Lee to Jaylon/Durant is another significant drop off. Blame FA and drafting. But, these are the same coaches folks raved over last year when we were winning.

 

[Nightman]

Anyone that thought we could survive the loss of Tron, Zeke and Lee with better coaching and spirit is drunk **

And don't forget we lost Heath too...........lol

 

[Verdict]

Dez and Tyron missed multiple games last season

Missing Dez isn't a handicap. Its a plus. And yes, I am being serious.

 

[viman96]

They were the Eagles best at their respective positions. Unlike the Cowboys, it's not an "excuse" for them. In fact, they thrash teams like the Cowboys despite their losses.

While we curl up in the fetal position.

Agreed. But there is a huge difference. For example replacing Zeke is different than replacing Sproles.

starters are starters for a reason because they are the best players on the team. Some fans were trying to use Baily as an ecuse last week .... The Eagles did it without a dam kicker and just went for 2 pts . The next man up is just as important as the man in front of him . If you need All Pros in all postions .... maybe the team is not as good as they thought.

wrong. go troll somewhere else.

Eagirls have better backups then we do. Just what it comes down to. They have a better defense than we do.

Cowboys are reliant on 5 guys. Dak, Sean Lee, Tyron, Zeke and Lawrence. If one of them is gone they will fill their effects. Its a coaching and personnel issue.

Just like the Packers. They are too reliant on on Aaron Rodgers.....they rely heavily on him to improvise and extend plays.

Its going to happen to some teams. It just is. Panthers rely heavily on Luke Kuechly.

Eagirls deserve praise for being able to play without certain guys.

Just like the Cowboys lost Romo and got better last season.

They didn't get better last season without Romo. They would have pretty easily beat the Packers in the playoffs with Romo.

Fine. You won't get an argument from me that Jones is part of the problem but he's not changing. So at the very least, change the head coach and maybe we get lucky.

 

[Sydla]

Against the Chargers and the Cardinals......

You always have caveats. You said if Cox got hurt it would change how they do things. Well, they lost Cox for two games and their defense was still very decent and they went 2-0.

Largely because they have better coaching than we do as well as better depth.
