Offense scored 34, that should be enough.

This is about that defense and it was not like JAX hadn’t served notice they were better than their record and rising. Lawrence is as hot as any QB in the league.
Game should have been over at 27-10 with 3 minutes left in 3rd qtr. Good teams don’t give up 17 point leads.

I don't know I would like to see Mike chew on somebody's butt just one time.
You know, the old call a time out get everybody over there and just chew some tail.
Standing there with your arms crossed doesn't seem to be effective.
FRAUD!

Yes, Jags in last three games has best Ravens, Titans and Cowboys. And now only 1 game back in division.

But we had them down by 17 with 18 minutes left. Good defenses hold on to 3 score leads.

This is the worst game ever. I see this happening again in the playoffs. This Defense goes as Parsons does and the last 2 weeks we have let them do what ever they want. Parsons needs rest or a kick in the butt. He made a play with less than 2 minutes to go and all we could do is have Moore call bs run plays that did not include Elliot between the tackles. They keep trying to run Pollard when we need Elliot…

It does seem like a lot. Oh my gosh! 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15...I'm tired already.

My big thing is the mystery of the missing pass rush these last few games.
It seemed like QB pressure/sacks was the one thing that you could hang your hat on and say good things about this team this year.
Now that it's gone AND the secondary is playing poorly AND the run defense is still...
Well...
Yeah it ain't shaping up to be too much defensive support down this stretch run.

I sack by Parsons.

Injuries must be taking a toll of our defense is a fraud.

Makes no sense to blame Dak or the offense for this loss...because they didn't attain 35 points in regulation today. That many shouldn't have been needed to dispatch the Jags.

The defense was beyond-horrid -- J-ville marched up and down the field, via ground or air, pretty much at will this afternoon. And, just perhaps, some of the LVE-haters finally learned exactly how important he's been to this defense, this season.

Yea, top 10 defenses don’t squander 17 point leads. Dak played well enough to win. His turnovers were even with Jags turnovers.

318 and 4 for Lawrence
Zay Jones gets 6 for 109 and 3
Kirk had 6 for 92
192 rushing with Etienne getting 103

That is not championship defense when trying to cash their ticket to the playoffs.

Now, all PHL need to is win 1 of their 3 remaining games against DAL, NO or NYG.

I think the threads that this is the week that PHL loses traction can rest now.

Oh yeah, one more thing. Can Beckham play DB?

Dak needs to learn to play some D if were going to do anything. If he continues to give up 40 its curtains.

Yes, try as some might, this defense can't get a free pass for allowing 34 points and 500 yards. Some want to blame it on Dak's INTs and yet those only explain the short field points the D gave up. Them giving up 500 yards means that they allowed the Jaguars offense to sustain multiple long field drives.

Defense is a concern. Injuries must be having an impact. We lost 2 more starters today.
Injuries and some real time managaement calls that has plagued this team for quite a bit is a real thing.
But also teams figuring this team out and no realtime, plus future, adjustments are also a real thing with this team.


Meanwhile Jerry continues to personally suckle upon the teet of OBJ like he's going to do something.
