Has AJ Brown really made the Eagles better than the Cowboys?

Yeah ok. Rodgers needed Adams? Maybe Rodgers made about 30 WR a lot of money in this league. Allen already doing the same. You are such a homer man, go hide under a rock when your boy gets back and we can't get the ball past the 50 till it's prevent defense time.
I’m a homer yet you are the d rider trying to convince us that only Dak and Hurts need good players around them to win?


It’s the dumbest argument you can make in 2022. “Oh Rodgers sucks because he needs Adams”…..well no **** Sherlock lol.

Another stat the media keep touting is Hurt's YPA which is 8.5 and ranked 2nd so far this year. If you look at it closer. that stat is misleading.
His air yards per completion is 5.8 yards and YAC per completion is 6.7 yard. Rush's air yards per completion is 6.8yard and YAC per completions is 4.8yards.

Rush throws it farther down the field and Hurt's gets all his yards from dinking it to his receivers who gets tons of YAC. People complain about Dak being dink and dunk QB yet his career numbers are better than Hurts. Yet Hurts is a front runner MVP and people say Dak sucks.

Here are numbers for the top 5 YPA QBs for comparison. It's clear, Hurts is truly a dink and dunk QB who's passing stat looks better due to his receivers getting big YAC.
Code:
                         Air Yards       YAC/PA
1.Tua                     7.6             5.3
2. J. Hurts               5.8             6.7
3. J. Allen               7.0             5.4
4. Geno Smith             7.1             3.9
5.  Mac Jones             7.9             4.4

C Rush                    6.8             4.8
Dak(career)               6.5             5.1

Dak doesn't suck.

The only reason the offense got shut out game 1 was because of the game plan. That was on Kellen Moore and McCarthy.

Now they are on the same page, and this is a different team. QB controversy is BS. Just let these guys plays, and it'll all work out.

Dak will get his shot, as he should. And if he f's it up, it'll be Cooper Rush. And it should be.

This just in. Davante Adams made Aaron Rodgers. Pay no attention to the Pro Bowls, All Pro, MVP and Super Bowl title that came before Adams.
He only achieved all that without Adams because of his HC at the time. The ********** is just around the corner for us.

Name them all. I'll wait here...
Nelson, Jennings, Driver, Finley, Donald Lee, James Jones, Cobb, Adams, Rich Rogers, Ty Montgomery, James Starks, Scantling, Lazard.
All these guys got multiple contracts that they wouldn't have gotten playing with lower tier QBs. Arguing with people like you who actually believe that Adams made Rodgers is insanity. A guy whos career TD passes are at over 450 and less than 100 ints, who averages 30+TDs a year and only 5 INTs a year doing all this in worst weather in the league while ur boy dak plays in an air controlled dome. WHY DO YOU PEOPLE STILL ARGUE? go look at ur boy daks stats without Cooper. check out his 30 qbr drop off. Now thats a WR who made a qb. remember all the struggles daky had once a past his prime Dez was shoved out the door. Romo made wr too. whatever walked through the door, romo got it done. Ask Laurent Robinson that. Dak is trash end of story.

They don't just need good players, they need all pro players. Dak had one of the best teams we have had in the last 30 years last year and he couldn't move the dam ball against the niners in our only playoff game. Look how many guys cashed in the offseason, OUR TEAM WAS STACKED! HE IS A FRAUD AND TRASH END OF STORY......HE WILL NEVER WIN A SUPER BOWL!!!!

Because as far as I can tell that's the only difference between last year's Eagles and this year's team.

Dallas dominated Philadelphia in all 3 phases last year and I don't think Brown is THAT much of a difference maker. Diggs can easily lock him down.

Yeah, Hurts may have improved some and we may have lost Amari Cooper and Dak (for this game only), but the Dallas defense is probably even better than what it was a year ago.

I think Sunday's game is going to be very close and Dallas has a good shot to win as long as they continue to not turn the ball over.

Dallas 23
Philadelphia 20

:starspin:
There defense is much better than last year. Sweat was their best pass rusher last year. Now they have Hassan Reddick and Brandon Graham back.

Also in the offensive side of the ball they are finally fully utilizing Miles Sanders. When you add than to progression with Devonte Smith you get a much better package of weapons from when a rookie Devonte Smith is their best offensive weapon. They have made big strides from last year outside of Brown

Golly gee I wish I had your optimism.


The change is simply outside of AJ Brown. And even if the change WAS AJ brown, remember what Amari did for us the year he traded for him? One player and the whole team changed.

Their defense got stronger. They drafted better and had plenty of picks. Their QB developed. Their coaching got more experience and is approaching each player to their proper strengths. They played their cards right unfortunately.


Remember, no NFCE team has repeated winning the division in years. Dallas has officially been hit by a metra train. And they sure are acting like it.

And they have ANOTHER two first round picks next year. That new regime is NAILING it!! Coaching staff looks great. Very good on both side of the ball.

100%…he’s a legit #1.

Smith is not. Good player but too small and more of a complimentary guy.

The ONLY fraud is you as a fan.

This comment right there just shows how much you truly dont understand football. Our team was NOT stacked in key areas and that was the issue.

Plus the niners were just the better team. And I am willing to bet you were predicting a loss pregame and spouting about how we were going to lose.

LOL not stacked!!! OMG are you blind. Stacked and HEALTHY!!!!

Our Oline had Connor Williams and Lael Collins. Our WRs Cooper, Wilson and Turner. Defense had Gregory too. Steele didn't even play in SF. Comical, just comical.

Also lets not forget why all those big names aren't here. WE CAN'T AFFORD THEM CAUSE WE OVERPAID FOR YOUR DAKY!

Sorry, buddy, its not the case. Our Oline was in complete shambles. Was the entire 2nd half of the season. Its why the offense was inconsistent. Zeke couldnt even run the ball playing on a torn MCL. We have NO run game the entire 2nd half of the season. Or dont you remember teams playing a two deep zone and daring us to run the ball and NEVER being able to make them pay? Pass protection was also in the toilet. Dak was playing on a hurt calf. Gallup was out for the year.

What was our biggest weakness on defense? The run D. Niners gashed us for 168 yards rushing on that day. Mitchel had 96 yards and a TD and Deebo had 72 yards and a TD on 10 carries.

Their Dline crushed our Oline. No time to throw and Zeke rushed for 31 yards on 12 carries.

Dak actually outplayed Garroppolo. Garrapollo going for 172, 1 pick and no TD's. Dak going for 254 yards, 1 TD, 1 pick, and ran in another TD. Dak was actually the best player on the field for the cowboys. Parsons and our defense did NOTHING all game long. Got run over.

Gould their kicker made 2 FG's of over 50 yards and a 40 yarder in the game. Incredible kicks.

Dak helped us score 10 points in the 4th to make it close including running one in.

And to top it off the Niners rolled into Greenbay the next week and shut down Rogers and the Packers on the road.

So next time you open your mouth, get educated first. I will roll your troll butt all over the board with the facts.

"duh we were injury free and completely stacked"!!!

Vick used to run for TDs too. So does Lamar. So did Kapernick. Doesn't get you rings.

Beating the Cowboys with Cooper rush isnt winning the SB. Whats the matter, have to change the subject? LOL

Typical behavior for someone getting spanked.

Ignorance is bliss. Hurts is having an incredible year and so are the Eagles.

Right, but it gives context of how that game went.
Point taken.
They don't just need good players, they need all pro players. Dak had one of the best teams we have had in the last 30 years last year and he couldn't move the dam ball against the niners in our only playoff game.

One of the best teams we had in the last 30 years? Just stop it lol. You’re emotional. Just calm down. You’re gonna harm yourself if you keep this up.

One of the best team in the last 30 years but got ran over and punched in the mouth by Deebo and the 9ers lol.
