How bad does this team miss Ellis?

[Grevus]

I maybe wrong, but prior to Ellis going done, this defense was playing well. Since his injury, we really haven't been the same. I didn't think losing Ellis would hurt the team that much, but apparently, it has more then I realized.
The number may not directly show it, but his presents help Ware and the rest of the line.

Any thoughts?

This might be the most fortunate team I can recall when it comes to injuries.

Ellis is the only guy lost to injury on the defense.

The offense has been even more fortunate.

We should be dominating our conference.

Real bad.

We haven't held the opponent under 50% in 3rd down conversions in any game since Ellis went down.

Our next game is against the worst team in the league at converting 3rd downs, so it's moveable force vs. resistable object.

after watching Bobby Carpenter, real bad, what did our scouts see besides his dad being a former player

 

[Hostile]

There is no time to miss Greg Ellis.

Every team loses football players. How many of us felt the Eagles were doomed without McNabb just like 2005? Jeff Garcia stepped up.

That's what good teams do. They move on. If this defense hasn't then they're being stupid.

I think this team does miss Ellis, our run defense has gone down and having another outside rusher is missed. I agree with Hostile that every team has suffered some type of loss player wise and players filling in have to step up.
