TNF: Eagles at Panthers

SimpleMan : 10/12/2017 8:14 pm
Wouldn't mind seeing Philly get their shit kicked in.

Romo is announcing, he's been a really good listen.

For a self-proclaimed "hardcore" fanbase, they are quite the front runners. At least around here.

Any Giants game they show up at as well, they only come in numbers, when they're doing well. Despite being not that far away, they never show up to giant games at the Meadowlands unless they're doing well/its a playoff game.

Yeah all the hardcore Phillies fans aren't around anymore. Baseball is boring according to them.
Even though I'm a Yankee fan and they beat the Phillies  
Route 9 : 10/12/2017 9:22 pm : link
in 2009. That Phillies boom around here down in South Jersey from 2008-2012 was one of the most annoying things ever, second to the McNabb era. Then maybe the 90's Cowboys.

This game sucks. Watching Cubs-nationals now.

Essex : 10/12/2017 9:47 pm : link
Besides Wentz, they are basically old at every position (curry and Grahamare 29, Peters, Long, and Kelce are over 30) or have guys on one year deals they will won’t be able to resign (Jernigan, Jeffrey, Torrey Smith). Plus, they have a PED freak at RT.

Let the eagle fans chirp, this team will be in total rebuild mode very shortly.

My only issue with Romo is he's too excitable and sounds a little silly at times - but I like his analysis and think he's pretty good. I think he provides some solid insight. This is his first year doing this - as long as the networks don't try to dumb him down, I think he'll do well going forward.

Hard to tell. Cam has a history - only slightly less drama queen than Big Ben. And it's not bad gamesmanship to play things up to fool an opponent anyway.

He threw a few out pass darts after that 'injury' on the final two drives. And he threw a 50 yard bomb try to mccaffrey two plays after milking his shoulder.

So I wouldn't say the announcers missed anything.

The fifty yard bomb was four yards out of bounds. Not one through was accurate after the leap to the pylon, maybe he isn’t hurt. But it sure looked like it to me and it surely was something to mention as a cause for what was mind numbing my bad accuracy. He is not a very accurate thrower, he isn’t that bad. Also, he didn’t run up to the line after the nine yard completion and he never left the pocket after that play. It should definitely be a mention.
He threw a dart to mccaffrey for a td  
MetsAreBack : 10/13/2017 12:31 am : link
The very play after the pylon 'injury' when they could have walked it in with Stewart.

He wasn't accurate all night - eagles got pressure and per romo his receivers probably deserved some blame for bad reads


But ... he's had a shoulder injury all preseason so maybe he exacerbated it. Lucky for him he has 10 days to rest up for the next one.

He actually wouldn't be very good in this offense. Not because he wouldn't be a good back and could be really good for the team but because McAdoo seems to get guys who do certain things well and then not use them that way or the things they do well don't matchup up to our style. With our Oline Blount would go nowhere. With our penchant for shotgun snaps and slow draws, Blount would be wasted. The fact that we have TE's and (had) a FB and then didn't use them to lead the way for a running attack says a guy like Blount would have been the Square Peg Round hole scenario...

So true...plus as someone mentioned above, how long did it take them to line up and get the next play called on second and 1???

The idea of the hurry up is to conserve time - they used literally over 20 seconds to get the play called - but also get the other team out of position a bit and on their heels.

Securing the first down there was vital. Then you can spike it if you want.

Totally agree. While he has speed, he's not making his own yards via broken tackles. RB's have to do that.
