Eagles vs Bills - Week 8 (2 Viewers)

[GroveDiesel]

Harrison Phillips’ injury was a sneaky big hit to Buffalo’s defense. Star has been awful against the run and Peko has been even worse. Peko just got pushed out of the hole straight into the end zone on that TD. And Edmunds is way too slow to diagnose and shoot the gap.

 

[DJackson10]

I just want to say one big thing we all aren't talking about here is the fact that the tailgate before this game might have been one of the most epic dual tailgates ever!!!!!

 

[JaxBill]

@RogerPatton3: @RoobNBCS Boston and Dallas have TDs for Philadelphia today.

 

[Gargoylez]

Bills are no longer an elite defense, they are barely a good defense right now.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Amazing what happens when you play a real team, right?

(ETA - that's not a knock on you being a Dolphins fan, that's me saying the Bills are overrated because they haven't beaten anyone good)

They’ve struggled all year defending power runs and delayed RB screens. And Wallace has shown a glaring weakness against bigger receivers. 

 

[DJackson10]

Already down 

 

[Gargoylez]

Needed this break. Special teams none the less.

 

[Steve Tasker]

You think the Eagles will carry Jim Schwartz off the field like the Bills did against Detroit in 2014?

 

[DJackson10]

Oh come on Scott I've been hyping you up since OTA's an you do that after a good play 

 

[IvanKaramazov]

Buffalo needed that badly.

 

[Gachi]

That’s why he’s on the practice squad. 

 

[DJackson10]

You think the Eagles will carry Jim Schwartz off the field like the Bills did against Detroit in 2014?

doubt it

 

[GroveDiesel]

Boy, I know I said the Bills need to get the ball in space outside the hashes, but they need to push downfield a bit too. Can’t keep playing behind the LOS.

And Bills get a break. Dumb idea to try to return that. Thought he even called for the fair catch as the Bills gunner could have destroyed him but let up and ran by him.

 

[Insein]

Sigh. Boston giveth and he taketh away.

 

[IvanKaramazov]

Buffalo needed that badly.

By the way, for you Eagles fans, this is the kind of insightful commentary I provide in Bills game threads every Sunday.

 

[Insein]

You think the Eagles will carry Jim Schwartz off the field like the Bills did against Detroit in 2014?

To throw him in a dumpster? They might.

 

[Steve Tasker]

To throw him in a dumpster? They might.

He was very well-liked here.  Many people felt he should've been hired as head coach over Rex in the post-2014 offseason.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Gore is so patient. Singletary is too. Love that Singletary can learn behind Gore. He’s like a little mini-Gore.

 

[DJackson10]

4th and long and we held? Wow Good Play Darby 

 

[Insein]

Defense stepped up. Amazing.

 

[GroveDiesel]

I think going for it was the right decision. Allen just didn’t make the throw quickly enough and didn’t put it in front enough.

 

[IvanKaramazov]

If you know you're going for it on 4th down, you need to dial up something better on 3rd down.

 

[Insein]

Darby made a play and didn't have PI. Now I'm shocked!

 

[GroveDiesel]

Bills need another turnover or a quick 3 and out and TD drive to have a chance at a win.

 

[Gachi]

The hell was Nelly doing?

 

[GroveDiesel]

Ok, it’s officially Josh Allen’s quarter. Let’s go do this big fella.

 

[jasvic]

This sure doesn't feel like an 11pt lead.

 

[Gachi]

When they load up the line like that why not call a sprint out? 

God the play calling is just awful.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Ok, it’s officially Josh Allen’s quarter. Let’s go do this big fella.

Weather isn't very conducive to a comeback, but I'll give Allen and McDemott this - I'd assume this game was long over by now if Tyrod, Fitz, or any of the other cast of Bills QBs in the past 15 years were out there.  Still a near-impossible task.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Sigh.  Brian Daboll is ####### terrible.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Boy, Allen’s accuracy way off. And no idea where he was even throwing that ball intended for Kroft. Daboll with some really questionable play calling.

 

[GroveDiesel]

If Bills can’t get a turnover here it’s game over for sure. Gotta expect the Eagles to keep it on the ground or go with more halfback screens.

 

[Insein]

He was very well-liked here.  Many people felt he should've been hired as head coach over Rex in the post-2014 offseason.

You dodged a bullet.

 

[Gachi]

Nice stand. 

 

[Steve Tasker]

You dodged a bullet.

He might not have done much worse than Rex did.  I think we're all pretty satisfied with McDermott though.

 

[IvanKaramazov]

Ridiculous.

 

[Gachi]

The holes are there but Howard refused to hit them. 

 

[GroveDiesel]

Buffalo’s DTs just getting blown off the ball in the running game.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Oh boy, that would have been huge by Hyde.

 

[DJackson10]

That play had all sorts of WTF there

Great play by Wentz there 

 

[IvanKaramazov]

Ridiculous.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Are you freaking kidding me? Edmunds has ZERO idea what is going on out there. None.

 

[Steve Tasker]

Are you freaking kidding me? Edmunds has ZERO idea what is going on out there. None.

So worried about the screens that've been eating them alive.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Again, Edmunds standing in no-man’s land while the TE makes the easy first down catch.

 

[GroveDiesel]

My goodness.

 

[IvanKaramazov]

Ridiculous.

 

[DJackson10]

ALL ABOARD THE JORDAN HOWARD TRAIN!!!! Its coming in fast 

 

[unckeyherb]

Howard truckin again

 

[Gachi]

Howard makes me nervous as hell when he runs. The ball looks so loose in his arms. 

 

[DJackson10]

Howard is just bullying Bills defenders right now. It's like watching the SR fight the 6th grader in the school yard. Unfair
