Thursday Night Football- Philly vs Texans

[SuperBowlz]

Yeah, he’s just a part time player… which is why you shouldn’t trade up in the first for him. I think they said on the NFL Network that he’s played an average of 24 snaps per game.

You guys need to go read up. They have a bunch of good DTs and he mainly plays running downs. Kid is a star and EXACTLY what we need. Exactly!

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

How so? I'm not watching the game. Curious.

It's 14-14, and the Eagles only scored once in the second quarter. That's their most productive Quarter.

Yup, and I could see the Eagles losing a few games this year. We can still get that 1 seed.

Even if they don't lose this one, there's a lot of games left. Some of our fans act like Philly is going to go unbeaten or even that we're going to win all of our games and come up short because Philly goes unbeaten. Both of those things are unlikely to happen.

@Aerolithe_Lion hasn’t even broken a sweat he knows his pesky birds are gonna whoop that *** in the 2nd half lol

Exactly. He’s a run down player. Which is why your team shouldn’t have traded up in the first to take one. A waste of a lot of resources.

As Jimmy Johnson said once: Run stoppers are a dime-a-dozen.

Yup, and the NFL is streaky. If you catch a team at the right time, any team can win. Also, any team can be exposed. Even if one team doesn't beat them, it can set a collapse in motion.

Wow, I didn't know that. The Oilers never beat the Eagles?

Eagles were 6-0 versus the Oilers and are 5-0 versus the Texans.

 

[BoyzBlaster]

Oh god Dak is going to try another televised accuracy contest?!??!!

 

[SuperBowlz]

This thread is full of Philly fans posing as Dallas fans…

Ive been accused of that and you may be right but it seems like an adult vs kids thing. Kids post "Philly got exposed tonight" adults can sit back and understand they have a really good team even if we hate them.

 

[gimmesix]

So our defenses have the same weakness: problems stopping the run.

 

[boysfanperiod]

Tonight, I'm a Texan fan.

 

[RS12]

Houston defense has to better on 3rd down if they want any chance to win this game. First half gave up 5 of 6

 

[817Gill]

A lil Dak and Ceedee time this second half nice

 

[Cowpolk]

Eagles were 6-0 versus the Oilers and are 5-0 versus the Texans.

Oh dang that needs to change now

Im not a gambler so O/U or “the spread” doesn’t really matter to me. Get out of Houston with a W and minimal injuries and I don’t really care what the point differential is

 

[gimmesix]

My hope in the second half is that the Hurts that occasionally overthrows a receiver shows up and makes some mistakes. We don't see him often this year, but Houston failed to take advantage of one he had in the first half.

 

[ScipioCowboy]

Wow, I didn't know that. The Oilers never beat the Eagles?

That’s what I read on Twitter. And if it’s on the internet, it’s true. As I recall, one of the harbingers of the old Run ‘n Shoot’s demise was Buddy Ryan’s Eagles killing poor Warren Moon on MNF.

We have a lot of snowflake fans where Davis is concerned. He's been excellent this year.

Exactly what a Philly fan posing as a Dallas fan would say.

It is easy to see from your short posting history.

As Jimmy Johnson said once: Run stoppers are a dime-a-dozen.

No, he said LBers are a dime a dozen. I'm a Cowboy fan and why can't we seem to find one. He's a fantastic young player. Look at their run D without him tonight. He's a prime time player and guys who are 6'6 350 and can run aren't a dime a dozen. He's exact what we need
