    Big win to start off for you.  Always a happier day in our house when Birds win.  (If they ever won a SB I bet I'd get head for a week :lol:)
    QB makes some foolish throws but they did pretty well.  A good thing Cousins couldn't hit any of those bomb attempts.
    Stephen Carr is a badass.  A hell of a 1-2 punch at RB.
    Our boy Nelson did ok for you today as well.

    first off let me comment on that article about Schwartz. good to see good journalism is alive and well. i mean it's great to get breaking news that 1) Schwartz is an arrogant prick and 2) an assistant coach, who used to be a head coach in the NFL, wants to be head coach.  wow great stuff there (insert sarcasm emoji here).

    as for the game offense left a lot of plays out there.  Wentz has to be better on the deep ball. missed 3 of them. really only Ertz and Agholor were better than average on offense today.

    did anyone not think the missed extra point was going to end up killing this team today?

    d-line was great especially Graham and Cox.  Skins receivers are pretty average but nice to see the D pretty much handle them all day.

    nice to see the Birds get a gift on the Cox touchdown. no way that was a fumble.  just atrocious.

    the only thing more annoying than all the commercials on NFL games are seeing Mike Perreira and Dean Blandino. if Fox pays those idiots more than $25 for what they provide they are idiots.  99% of the time they are on they are worthless.

    Nice win. Play calling is suspect. Blount had a couple 6-7 yard gains and immediately was pulled from the game. Twice he got the ball 3 straight plays and couldn't get the 1st. Wentz seemed inaccurate at times but still had a good completion %. Agholor had a nice opener last year then went into the shitter again. Hopefully he's turned it around this year. D was good. Darby's ankle shouldn't bend that way.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Darby out only 4-6 weeks would be nice. Sturgis is most likely gone.

    foolish me i thought it would at least take a loss for the media and fans to start bitching about the run-pass ratio.

    why would you want to draft a running back higher when the coach isn't going to commit to the run?

    Well, besides no run game, you can't turn it over twice inside your own 30 and miss a chip shot FG. That's a 13 point swing.

    Eagles, Phillies, and Flyers all gave up game-winners within a span of 8 minutes yesterday.  Not the feat that a Philly fan wants to hear, I'm sure, but an impeccably timed feat nonetheless.

    3:38 Eagles give up lead for good
    3:45 Phillies give up lead for good
    3:46 Flyers give up GWG in OT

    yes there were times where even I thought they should have run more yesterday.  the mains reasons for the loss though:

    mistakes - missed fg, fumbled punt and a terrible interception. how do you hit a d-lineman in the head as he is stumbling? just an awful pass by Wentz.  Not beating really good teams on the road with those 3 huge mistakes.

    defense got torched in the 2nd half.  lost in all the run-pass ratio talk is the defense, which was awesome in the 1st half, got torched in the 2nd half.  Eagles took the lead and the D let the Chiefs go 83 yards in 6 plays to regain the lead. too easy too quick.  Eagles come back and tie it and after one good series by D and the INT they give up a TD.  Still within a TD after an Eagles punt they let KC go 56 yards in 6 plays to essentially end the game.  3 TDs in a span of about one quarter of play time-wise. not very good.

    worse than the play calling was some of the protection calls. After KC took the lead the 1st play of the next drive Birds had Zach Ertz trying to block Houston. And twice late in the game Sproles got blown up on blitzes.

    ....oh and i'm almost forgot another reason for the loss. that other coach is a great fucking coach.  and we had him...and ran him out of town. gets more glaring year after year as he just continues to win NFL games.

    Front 7 looks nasty. Douglas impressed me. Running game is a complete joke and Wentz is going to get killed at some point if things continue like this.

    I also don't think we missed McLeod. He takes bad paths to the ball too often.
