2025 Philadelphia Eagles - Totally normal things happening. (50 Viewers)

The main reason some have used for this Eagles season not being 2023 again is “Fangio and the defense”…who just surrendered 5 TDs to the Giants and PS receivers. Injuries, yes, but a rookie QB and nobodies.

You can't hide Ringo. Now you can't hide either CB. Plus this offense is doing the D no favors. No rhythm, totally predictable. I think it's safe to say, the offense is at its best when they only throw about 25 times. They need to use the run to set up the pass. Patullo will be gone at seasons end if things don't improve.
Absent a deep playoff run I have trouble seeing this ending any other way than Patullo getting fired. And Lurie/Howie forcing Sirianni to bring in the 2026 equivalent of Kellen Moore.
Sirianni will want a new OC too. We had no other options after playing as late as we did.

We all knew this.
 
Safe to say there will be no repeat this year. Just try to salvage what we can, make a decent run and hope no one gets hurt into next year. Get a new OC next season. McDaniel would be good because I don't think he'd be 1 and done. He might stay 2 seasons. Maybe take a shot at it again next year.

As is, this is going to be a long season.

They have a beatable Vikings team that’s having their own struggles and the re-match at home. Then the bye.

Season’s far from over, but they need to get healthy and fix a lot. The D has mostly been injuries.

The Offense needs an enema.
 
The Only thing wrong with the Eagles is the QB ... He absolutely sux !
Never saw a QB with that much time and that much talent around him and not be able to make a play
Meanwhile Dart , with no oline, no time to throw and no WRs is finding ways to get it done.

Remember how you all laughed when I said Jones was better then Hurts ... Who's laughing now !??!?!?!

Anyway ,,, I'm just happy as hell that the Eagles dont have a Jones, Dart or someone even better or they'd be working on their 3rd or 4th consecutive SB

Except on the biggest possible stage huh? 🙂

With Q sidelined with a hammy, I feel totally confident that Ringo and Jackson will be able to blanket Jefferson and Addison. Add to the fact that our pass rush is unstoppable, Wentz won't have any time to throw. Easy win.

NOTE: I don't agree with anything I just wrote.
 
So…are the Giants suddenly good or are the Eagles just that bad?
I won't comment on the Giants specifics, but they did lose to the Saints last week.

To be fair to the Eagles they were missing their All-Pro LG in Dickerson, their best edge rusher in Nolan Smith, one of the toip five defensive players in the league in Jalen Carter and quickly their best CB in Quinyon Mitchell. They are running a mash unit out there and unfortunately the guys they have left are just not good. Keelee Ringo resorts to PI on every single deep pass, Andrew Mukuba gives up a TD every week, Adoree Jackson is a total liability, the line gets no pressure and when they do, they oversell the rush and Dart made them pay with his legs all game long.

I blame the defnsive woes mostly on the injuries we've sustained. Your going to see a downgrade on defense when 3 of your 5 best players aren't playing, especially when their replacements are all liabilities.

The bigger concern I have is this offense. Our protections somewhat held up yesterday although Jalen did take a couple of (IMO) unecessary sacks. The problem is that the WR's just aren't getting open. The run game is atrocious-Saquon looks perfectly healthy, FWIW, I think that the line is not opening holes like they did last year and they aren't doing anything different play to play (under center anyone?)

I said in the game thread that I thought the vibes coming into this game for me, was that the line wuoldn't hold up and that Jalen would turn the ball over-which would lead to a score and that this felt like one of those inevitability game that the Eagles would lose.

Decamara on the radio pointed out that, from last year's Super Bowl team these are the guys that did not play last night:

Jalen Carter
Quinyon
Nolan
Dickerson
Slay
Isaiah Rogers
BG
Sweat
Milton
CJGJ
Becton
Gainwell

This feels very much like 2023 and I think the reality is that if they don't figure this out, this team could very well miss the playoffs.

But they finally invested heavily in LB. I don't think they'll ever prioritize that position again.

LOL!! Welcome to the NFL !! The Eagles have been the healthiest team in the NFL for 2 years running and now you know how the rest of us live!

It's not enough to have the best Oline (year after year), The Best RBs in the NFL, top 3 WRs, top 5 TE's, Top Defense in the NFL,

And despite missing an Olineman - Hurts still had crazy amounts of time to throw and still had All pro WRs TEs and RBs that he couldnt find open if they were they all players on the field.

Maybe if your Oline wasn't getting pummeled at the bottom of a scrum 20% of the time, so that Hurts could can gain 4 yards and TD on 5 plays, he wouldnt have gotten injured

I've been saying forever that any QB would thrive in that situation ... And the funny thing is Hurts hasn't !!!!! 18 TDs last season for the LOL! SB MVP which autamitically goes to the winning teams QB every year., and career high 23 !!!! Thats aweful!!!

I just watched Spencer Rattler pick apart the Giants with one of the worst Olines in the NFL while missing his top Olineman and with the worst surrounding talent in the NFL.

Bottom line ... Hurts is a slooooowwwww thinking QB that needs lots of time and lots of talent around him to be a Good Game Manging QB and a LOL ...Ssuperbowl MVP... LOL !

Every team has injuries.
 
Interesting post-game comments last night from A.J. Brown... much was made about this "closed door" meeting (2+ hours) earlier this week between Hurts, Saquon, and A.J. Brown... when asked about it last night A.J. denied any knowledge of a meeting. Told reporters to go ask those guys.

Wow! That’s not good. ETA - he should have replied “no comment “

Eagle Fans didnt know that until now ... actually it wasnt true until now
 
I have even more appreciation for Shane Steichen after last night.
This current OC is terrible. I'm no expert. And I know I come in here as an AJB owner into a room full of Eagles fans.
I just see so much talent here on this offense. It's frustrating to watch on primetime.

Yea we've been saying it since week 1. This OC is about as creative as a high school coach.

I mean, this new OC was all excited last night after copying a KC redzone pitch to the TE for the TD.
Like yeah! You came up with a copy/paste unexpected redzone conversion against the Giants! Congrats!
And then you tush push 4 times in a row for the other TD. WOAH!
This dude is a bum.

I like the Tush push. It's a definite advantage but going 4 times in a row there was stupid. We have Barkley. We have AJ. We have Goedert. Make the defense think of something else first. We can always do it on 3rd and 4th down.

And hopefully we can get the offensive equivalent of Fangio, b/c I'm sick of hiring OC's just to become a HC the next year
 
So…are the Giants suddenly good or are the Eagles just that bad?
Their D-line is good and the Eagles' O-Line is currently bad. Their secondary sucked as usual but the Eagles' O did not exploit it as much as they could have.

The Eagles D was missing three of its best players in Carter, Mitchell and Smith. Last year it had the depth to overcome that kind of thing but this year it does not.
 
Aren’t the Eagles 4-2? Reading this thread one would think they are 2-4.
They are a blocked FG and a Baker INT away from 2-4. This does not feel like a 4-2 team
This is where my 2023 comparisons come into play. Everyone at that time just focused in the record and you could tell who did and did not watch the games. At that time and now, we are winning in spite of major issues. The issues we know going into this were what? New OC ( we had experience with this before), lack of depth almost everywhere after FA, lost a lot of high level contributors and replaced them with inexperienced players and no CB2 or 3

Sprinkle in the somewhat unexpected OL play. We know Jurgens and Dickerson were banged up but at least I didn’t think they were this hurt. Mailata playing poorly and Lane being dinged all season. Hell, even Goedert was one of the better run blocking TE’s and now he’s like 105th out of 114. That group alone was one of our biggest strengths and now it’s a weakness.

All that said, we won ANOTHER SB just 8 months ago.

I’m gonna enjoy the season and decide how much I care come playoff time.

Sure, that wasn't really my point. I was responding to the question about whether the giants are that good or are the Eagles that bad. Simply pointing out that the Eagles are playing without three of the best five players on defense and an all-pro guard-something a non-Eagles fan might not know, but would like to in order to get context for this specific game. The reality is that the Eagles lost that game by playing poorly and the Giants looked substantially like the better team in all phases. They kicked our asses, point blank, period.

The point I made at the end is that this is a very different team overall than it was last year and I think than what many fans were expecting. All of that being said, there is simply too much talent on this offense to put up 17 points against the Giants or 17 points against the Broncos. I'm a heavy Jalen supporter and even I'll admit that Jalen is not playing up to his standard, but to be clear the offensive woes are not even remotely close to being solely his fault.

The offensive line has been...offensive all season. The run blocking and the run calls have been piss poor. The WRs are not getting open and when they are its usually because of a busted play or resorting to freelancing after doing the same out route as the last five downs. To the casual watcher it looks like Jalen is holding the ball too long, but its been clear that he simply doesn't have anyone to throw to. Its why, time and time again he stands and stands and stands and then dumps off underneath. Has anyone noticed that Dallas Goedert will probably surpass last year's total receptions in the next 4 or 5 games? Its because the OC continues to call the same long-developing, predictable routes for these WRs and Dallas is the only one open.

These guys have a mini-bye. Ten days to figure this **** out. Nick and the core of this team have absolutely earned the benefit of the doubt. That Nick took that 2023 dumpster fire and was able to will that team back to life and to a Super Bowl win is something that I think maybe 2 other coaches in the NFL could have done. So I give grace to these guys, but if they come out with this same garbage offense and sloppy play (taunting penalties, presnap penalties, delays of game) against Minny then I'll officially be in disaster/panic mode.

Yup. If Super Bowl/Implode/Super Bowl/Implode is the how the Eagles build a team/franchise. I'm fine with that.
 
Safe to say there will be no repeat this year. Just try to salvage what we can, make a decent run and hope no one gets hurt into next year. Get a new OC next season.
4-2
:lmao:
Didn't the Cowboys lose to the Eagles? At full strength?

:lmao:
You’re missing the point of my post

Also, what’s that have to do with anything?
I hope you got the point of mine

:P
Your post made no sense. But whatever
 
OL and OC are gigantic problems.

Our OL looks horrible and is incredibly banged up. The importance of a good OL will always be underrated even when it is discussed at length. Feels like a bottom 10 OL now, and it's really hard to win in this league with that. Need those guys to get healthy and for Stout to coach some of the depth guys up to hopefully be serviceable.

Patullo needs to go and there's no dancing around that. Never liked the hire, but as @Bigboy10182000 continues to mention, it's not like we had a ton of options since we went deep into the playoffs. Assuming that rule is not going to change, it's tough for any SB team because often their OC leaves, and the available OC's are paper thin. Still wish they went with someone else, but can't overly blame them for that move. But CAN overly blame them if they don't get rid of him after this year... heck, even during this year. Predictable, unimaginative, no motion, etc. Really miss Moore and wish he had stuck around.

Any team playing without 3 of their top 5 defensive players is in major trouble against any opponent.

This team desperately needs to get healthy and desperately needs even a semi-competent OC in the worst way.

Let me break it down for you, b/c obviously you are here for 1 reason and its not "to talk about football"

You are here to talk about how bad the Eagles are

I'm just reminding you this "bad" Eagles team

Beat the Cowboys at full strength

Its just a statement of fact, and it certainly makes sense

You still don’t get it. I was chuckling at the eagles fan who said “that’s it pack it in play out the string this years over”. Because you’re 4-2. It’s the first week of October. Classic eagles fan behavior lol.

So no, I wasn’t here to talk about how bad the eagles are. But I’ll probly get around to it here soon, because I’m enjoying their sucktitude quite a lot.

And again, right on cue you bring up the Cowboys. For what reason?
 
So anyway, I think one of the biggest misses by Howie this past off-season is not resigning Becton. He didn't get that much and our guard play has been awful without him. Sure he's hurt now but that's not to say he would have been had he been here. If Becton is here, Steen coming in as a backup for LD is much easier. LD could have rested since the beginning of the year. We don't lose as much as we did playing a hurt Dickerson with Steen on the other side.

Plus with Becton signed long term, he's the obvious replacement for Lane once he decides to hang it up.

Rare miss for Howie lately.

Agree - paying Becton would have given them so much flexibility at G and down the road at T. You just can't find 340 lb athletes off the street.

The biggest whiff was not re-signing Isaiah Rodgers. He only got a 2 year, $11M deal. Instead, we bargain bin shopped for Jackson.
 
So anyway, I think one of the biggest misses by Howie this past off-season is not resigning Becton. He didn't get that much and our guard play has been awful without him. Sure he's hurt now but that's not to say he would have been had he been here. If Becton is here, Steen coming in as a backup for LD is much easier. LD could have rested since the beginning of the year. We don't lose as much as we did playing a hurt Dickerson with Steen on the other side.

Plus with Becton signed long term, he's the obvious replacement for Lane once he decides to hang it up.

This was also a big miss but I'd say the Guard play has been worse than the corner play.

Steen's grades out as the 33rd best G, Bechton is currently 88th. (Dickerson is 56th).

Becton was 14th last year on the Eagles among all Guards. Dickerson was 9th.
 
Safe to say there will be no repeat this year. Just try to salvage what we can, make a decent run and hope no one gets hurt into next year. Get a new OC next season.
4-2
:lmao:
Didn't the Cowboys lose to the Eagles? At full strength?

:lmao:
You’re missing the point of my post

Also, what’s that have to do with anything?
I hope you got the point of mine

:P
Your post made no sense. But whatever
Let me break it down for you, b/c obviously you are here for 1 reason and its not "to talk about football"

You are here to talk about how bad the Eagles are

I'm just reminding you this "bad" Eagles team

Beat the Cowboys at full strength

Its just a statement of fact, and it certainly makes sense
You still don’t get it. I was chuckling at the eagles fan who said “that’s it pack it in play out the string this years over”. Because you’re 4-2. It’s the first week of October. Classic eagles fan behavior lol.

So no, I wasn’t here to talk about how bad the eagles are. But I’ll probly get around to it here soon, because I’m enjoying their sucktitude quite a lot.

And again, right on cue you bring up the Cowboys. For what reason?
Weren't the Eagles 4-2 this time last year ?
I wonder if he gave up so easy last year.
