Yes we have neglected it too long we have to put some resources into that
We’ve got Wilson, brown, and pollard off the top of my head who we have to make decisions on
The rest of the off season should be about finding a DT in FA if at all possible
Then I’d look again in the draft but it means you don’t have to reach
I haven’t even looked at who might be available but they sure need to be
Our FA are gonna be interesting
Wilson plays at our deepest position but I think he’s really important to the team
Brown could be cheap coming off injury but if Wright keeps growing with bland we might not need his help
Pollard to me is an almost must sign, even if it means losing Zeke

Pappy's still trying to figure out how to put a bad spin on Dak after that game . But I'm sure given enough time he will figure something out. Lol
He will find one
He did have a pick and it’s not like he completed every pass either lol

Now everyone will say because this was a division game and the Eagles have the best record in the league why would I be surprised the game was close.

The Eagles turned the ball over four times and we're starting their second string quarterback.

The game was so close because the Eagles trenches outplayed our trenches They had six sacks and we had zero.

Dak put this team on his back and after his early mistake did everything in his power with his arm and legs to win this game for us .
Saying he was physically dominating is an understatement.

All that said our defense is somewhat of a concern because of its health The Eagles showed that they made a great move by signing Suh and Linville Joseph as they are getting roughly 40% of the defensive snaps and making an impact on their defense.

Jerry sat on his hands and let the eagles out maneuver us just when our defense was getting banged up. If we can't get healthy by the playoffs this could be our undoing letting the Eagles beat us in this chess match of defensive free agents.

They already have the best offensive line They just line up at the goal line tell everybody they're going to run and do it.

We have the talent in so many areas and had the opportunity to get the talent to take us over the top granted our coaching in the clutch is horrible poor Micah couldn't even get a timeout when the defense was totally gassed
I think it would have been nice if somebody would have let everybody know on offense to avoid going out of bounds and make the clock run I mean McCarthy could do something constructive like that.

Hey nobody's happier than me about getting a win over the Eagles on Christmas Eve but I see the foreshadowing of what's to come and it's concerning

Thoughts??
Team has serious end of the game clock management.
2 games in a row now.
Quite inexcusable

I predicted a Cowboy win and the homer galore attack that would follow in these forums esp about the greatness of Dak.
Let's hope this is not the last hurrah you Dak zombies have as come playoff time the opponents will have something to play for.
Will talk soon......;)

Going into this off season I hope Jerry sets two goals. Sign our guys and find a stud DT
Where we are likely to pick the draft may not be the answer. I don’t know who will hit the market but I’d be all over the DT position

if we don’t get to NFCCG I’d fire the coaching staff and get Payton here along with Fangio

I wouldn’t give up a premium pick for Payton and the saints aren’t just gonna let him walk for free since they own his rights

The Eagles are a really good team. Minshew is a quality backup too. So not surprised it was as close as it was.
