What do we do about Celek?

[MarionBarberThe4th]

If the game plan remains doubling up Jackson and spying Mcnabb thats cool, Ill live w/ Celek getting his.

But a couple of times he caught passes in stride over the middle which scared me.

My knee-jerk reaction is to put Jason Williams on the field over Crapenter.

Ill assume the gameplan remains unchanged leaving the Celeks, Avants, and Maclins to beat us.

yea I agree im cool with Celek getting his to an extent. I was really shocked that Barbie let him run wild after doing a great job against the better TEs in the NFL. I didnt really see number 43 coving him this time i thought that was odd as well

 

[gmoney112]

I don't care if Celek gets 100 yards as long as they put up 0 points.

 

[TheCount]

Forget that, what are THEY gonna do about Crayton?!

 

[SaltwaterServr]

And our screens to Felix if they aren't getting bogus holding calls? The check downs were killing them too. Maybe they can teach their linebackers to cover in a week's time? Naaaaaah.

I've been on their Boards and believe me...they are saying the exact same thing about Witten. They have no answer with their linebackers.

I love it.

 

[LatinMind]

dallas doesnt do anything about celek. let him catch his 5 passes for 70something yrds. better a te then a wr going for 80 yrd td

 

[LatinMind]

i like what dallas did here.

D. Jackson 3 47 0 32
J. Maclin 3 47 0 31
B. Westbrook 4 20 0 11
J. Avant 1 8 0 8
L. McCoy 2 5 0 9

 

[Don Corleone]

I agree with other posters on here. Let Celek have his 70 or so yards so long as he doesn't score.

 

[SaltwaterServr]

That can be said for 31 teams in the NFL, and one more is glad they only face him in practice.

gmoney112 excellent assumption. I don't care either about the Brent Celek 90 yards he catched because we won. Your much better off shutting down the Jacksons, Westbrooks and etc. and letting Celek burn you a few times because you'll probably be OK in the long run.

How long is the Iggles center out for?

I think he is going to make some plays but the key to Philly offense is stopping the big plays of Jackson and Maclin. I don't want to adjust the defense with a safety on the TE because it would help open the big play down field. Fact is Philly will get some yards here and there and make plays but they are not going to win with Celek as the lead rec on that team.

As for Williams taking over for Carpenter I would not do it at this stage and risk Williams being lost in the defensive scheme. If Wade felt Williams was the better option he would put him in the game.

The season.


And I'll take Celek catching his. Let him have his. Just don't let the receivers beat you deep.

 

[Smith22]

The season.

Good news for us.

And I'll take Celek catching his. Let him have his. Just don't let the receivers beat you deep.

Agreed. The Eagles are all about the big play.

So we win by letting Celek the GREAT TE in the mind of Joe Buck, get all his yardage and we still win and you are scared of CeleK? stop questioning every piece of the game before you forget how the game is won.

And if they decide to blitz us this week they are screwed.

You probably should have read more than the thread title

Exactly what we're doing already.
