Steelers @ Eagles

robbieballs2003 : 8/21/2014 7:48 pm
Ryans just got hit for a personal foul on a vicious hit on Bell which I think is bullshit. He didn't lower his head. It wasn't helmet to helmet. It was a bang bang play where Bell missed the catch and immediately after he got hit.

I hope we run plays like that with Jennings  
arcarsenal : 8/21/2014 7:59 pm : link
Really nice fake to one side, get the RB out in space on the other and let him make a play. Obviously McCoy is quite a bit better than RJ but it's the type of play we've rarely seen the Giants run at all in recent years.

I was actually going to make a comment about that screen. Perfectly executed by everybody on that play. The OL, the fake handoff, McCoy, the receiver making the block on the corner at the goal line, etc. I don't think the Giants have ever ran a screen like that in recent memory.
I can't remember us running any, either.  
arcarsenal : 8/21/2014 8:09 pm : link
We ran a few slip screens with Bradshaw in that late 2009 game when we beat the crap out of Washington and I remember wondering why it wasn't a play we used more. But other than that, I really can't recall much of any playcalls similar to the one the Eagles just ran.

They called Offensive PI!!!
look  
Eric from BBI : Admin : 8/21/2014 8:21 pm : link
at how much great pass protection matters. Like last year, no one is getting near Foles.
What a horrible call on that Maclin play  
robbieballs2003 : 8/21/2014 8:25 pm : link
That was easily a TD. He wasn't even close to stepping out of bounds and that balk definitely crossed the goal line.
Well

I wouldn't say great. He has gotten hit a few times. He's just getting rid of the ball extremely quick. Their OL has looked good though.

Eric, have you ever gone back and watched Kiwi? I'm still interested in your take of him.
Eagles,  
Tittle 9 20 64 : 8/21/2014 8:28 pm : link
are going to be tough this year.
McCoy  
bc0312 : 8/21/2014 8:29 pm : link
got hurt and is getting xrays. Did anyone see what happened?
That play right there is a direct result of the penalty on Ryans  
robbieballs2003 : 8/21/2014 8:31 pm : link
Earlier Ryans lit up Bell. This time Brown could have gotten lit up but the defender held up and Brown spins out for a huge gain.

I saw him wave in Sproles but he didn't look hurt. Maybe it was a hand?
Supposedly his thumb.

McCoy is getting x-rays on his thumb.

down, non-contact, looks bad
Maclin holding his knee in pain on the ground.  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/21/2014 8:35 pm : link
Non contact, too.
ohhhhh  
bc0312 : 8/21/2014 8:35 pm : link
not good for Maclin or the Eagles
maclin

ACL for Mac.
Maclin just reinjured his knee  
Larry in Pencilvania : 8/21/2014 8:36 pm : link
doesn't look good for him or the eagles
The knee isn't supposed to bend

that way.
That made my

hopefully that is just a hyoerextension

And not a tear.
He walked off

wow
Hate the Eagles  
Montreal Man : 8/21/2014 8:38 pm : link
but I'm not happy that Maclin's hurt. I hate to see athletes go down like that.

pjcas18 : 8/21/2014 8:39 pm : link
ok, who knows though. was walking around not getting treatment.
that FG attempt  
robbieballs2003 : 8/21/2014 8:41 pm : link
Wasn't even close.
He's on the field.  
arcarsenal : 8/21/2014 8:41 pm : link
Just made a catch. He's fine
He's back in.  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/21/2014 8:42 pm : link
That knee is a ticking timebomb, though.
McCoy  
pjcas18 : 8/21/2014 8:45 pm : link
xrays negative, injury not believed serious
odd that the guy  
natefit : 8/21/2014 8:45 pm : link
was writhing in pain and now hes fine. Maybe he watched a lot of World Cup
That's Maclin's move.  
eclipz928 : 8/21/2014 8:45 pm : link
He "hurts" himself a bit, and then sprawls out on the field crying in agony as if something horrific happened to him . . . and then he's back on field for the next drive. Can't count the number of times he's done that. He's a little bitch.
The Browns and Steelers  
robbieballs2003 : 8/21/2014 8:51 pm : link
Are done with their games against each other in week six? That's horrible scheduling.
The Eagles line is really good.  
arcarsenal : 8/21/2014 8:55 pm : link
These guys can get out in front and block, they open up holes. It would be nice if we had anything resembling that.

And you're the classic "rule of 'z'". If you watched the play, he hyper extended the knee.

Is unbearable.
Are the announcers at the game?

Their audio sounds like it is in a studio.

He hyperextended his knee but acted like he snapped a femur. My point was pretty clear, don't be a classic obtuse asshole.
And my point is pretty clear

The Eagles look sharp.

Seems to me that, right now, the division is their's to lose.
Hey "z" man...

They should. They looked like shit against us. They look like shit now. Its funny how the last two years we have basically mirrored each other. Pitt is like the Giants of the AFC and we are the Steelers of the NFC.

I agree with this. They have been on similar trajectories, not to mention Ben and Eli being part of the incredible QB draft of '04 and being linked their entire careers.
