Who told me that the Eagles would be fine?

Even if he plays. Which I think is just talk from the FO of Philly to not have the fans panic, a torn muscle in the abdomen area of an offensive tackle will hurt no matter what they inject him with. One inside move could end his year or worse.
In the absence of anything else I will go with Dr. Chao… He claims that with a brace LJ will be at 90%. There is a chance though that he doesn’t play at all still… Only time will tell on that one

wait, I thought the Eagles had a dominant run game? Their run game is avg.... having a QB rush for 50 yards a gae sure makes your run game look great. But when you try to run the balll by just lining up with no running qb, that run game looks pretty pedestrian now. The reado option strike fear into nobody when Minschew is the guy doing the reading.

Eagles fans better hope Hurts plays next week, because if he doesnt, I see the Giants actually playing this game out and beating them.
I’m not sure if you meant this, but it’s not a direct effect jalen and Hurts has on the running game, is the indirect effect… The effect of the defence having to account for him on every play.… That makes traditional rushing easier.

I bet that Hurts can't wait to stick that bad shoulder into the dline.
LOL do you know anything about his injury? First its to the SC joint not the AC joint. The SC joint is very tough and very tough to injure… That is why there is very little chance of making the injury worse by playing. If he still does have pain they can easily inject it and the pain goes away… And this injury at this point is 100% pain threshold.

And yes I fully expect it to be the same Hurts as before the injury.

I hope both us and them are as healthy as possible and that we play in the NFC CG… That would be awesome.

Also, the Eagles just blew getting a top 10 pick in the draft by losing to the Saints.
Actually playing around with tankathon, Even if the Saints win on Sunday the pic is 14 worst case. That’s actually the range 10 to 14… If Saints lose it’s guaranteed to be 10, if Saints win but it depends on the results of the 14s immediately behind the Eagles

Lane Johnson has been a key part of the Eagles getting to 13 wins and the Eagles OL overall has been a key factor in the success of their season. We have yet to see how Jalen Hurts does when one of the biggest pieces is missing on the OL. And when Lane Johnson himself won't even be at 100% when he tries to return for the playoffs. We also have no clue on how Hurts does when the playoff spot light is. It's one thing for him to do it in the regular season. He still has to prove he can take it to another level in the playoffs. And now is in a spot where he might not be at 100% and will be tested against the Giants, even if the Giants play their back ups.
It is indeed a wildcard… Johnson’s health. I like to assume he’ll be fine though, as the alternative is that I’m hoping for an injury so we can beat a team better than us… Not a very honourable position to be in.

Some people on here (pro Prescott fans) bigged up about how well Minshew played in the last game and how he balled out. When in reality he effectively played a big part in turning over the ball three times and choked when having a regulation opportunity to win the game. He stunk up the joint yesterday. Looks like they will get their other players back within 3 weeks but it's all about Hurts for them. He is their X factor and difference maker.
I don’t know why people think Minshew played well against us. The end of the first half was just about the poorest performance Of a two minute offence that I’ve ever seen. He fumbled a handoff. And we picked him off twice on passes that should never of been thrown. It was a vintage Dak Prescott performance. Looked OK in terms of yards and TDs but overall, just gave the game away. And that Makes it a bad performance.

Exactly, and only 7 of Dak's 14 picks were the result of him making a bad throw or poor decision. The rest are off of tips, drops, or bad routes by the intended target.
Highly debatable. Some throws, even though technically they were not the QBs fault, Are throws that should never have been made.

Is it just me or has AJ Brown lost a step in the past 2 months, nope. this big one is a problem, but Diggs is about the best DB in the NFC that can try and neutralize his presence.
I know that Diggs can hang with him, but Diggs will need to hang with him, if we are lucky and Diggs dominates the matchup then we can dominate post season matchup.
Brown has over 1400 yards and 11 TDs on the season, been targeted 135 times this season.
Shut down Brown should be the mantra.
Could be Diggs but maybe even flip it to Kearse, will probably take both, this will be a critical decision from Q.
He looked pretty fast on the TD on Sunday. Remember he isn’t a pure speed guy

Some of you HATE that we won games with Cooper Rush. Is it because you can't say "See! If Dak can't do it nobody can!" now like you badly want to believe?

Dak over Dallas fans are the worst.


Wrong!! Eagles fans are the worst.

Posting on another team’s forum is the low.
LOL because anyone who post anything even slightly negative regarding the Cowboys must be a fan of the other team…The people like you who post that kind of stuff are just ridiculous. Guess what, you can hate JJ, hate Dak Prescott, not hope for injuries to your opponents, and still be a Cowboys fan…

Haha! Sounds like real inside Intel!

Not only that, but it's a little known fact that AJ Brown told the equipment manager that he isn't getting his cleats right. Also, the long snapper is having some self doubt about about whether he'll have a job next year. Also, I think the linebacker coach is upset at the tight ends coach because when they went out to lunch last week the TE coach didn't pick up the tab, and it was his turn to do so.

How do I know these things? I just think they're true....so I'll just post them here as if they're facts.

I mean...I'm on the internet and everything.....that means I know stuff about these people I've never met or spoken to. But I know.
You sound nervous too. Hahaha.

Slightly negative??? Lol. That’s not what he does. You’re new or don’t pay attention.

If he’s really a Cowboys fan he is even more pitiful than posting and posing as one.

Lol. He will be fine on Sunday. Don’t play the Giants in your bet this week…at least not to win outright. I actually would take the Giants +14 though. If the eagles are up more than that in the 2nd half they will likely put Minshew in.
If I was betting I would bet against the Eagles every week until they are eliminated. I like the Giants and the points. I think a good way to play it is bet against Eagles every week and if you lose one then double up against them. I think that the Lane Johnson injury does them in and everything is starting to snowball against them. You can come back at me after the games to see how it works out.

What if he truly thinks the Dak Prescott is terrible and will never win a Super Bowl? That’s my opinion as well, and I’m so frustrated that we’re wasting a decade on him. If he ever does win, I will gladly eat my words

I’ve heard about that approach with betting black on roulette… It makes a certain sense until it doesn’t and you’ve lost a fortune LOL
