Eagles vs Bucs - Wild Card (-8.5, o/u 45.5) (1 Viewer)

[Balco]

Bucs don’t have top two running backs, two of top 3 receivers, and now best OL is out. Eagles have a big opportunity here.

Must be an Eagles thread 

Earlier than usual though today ….

 

[modogg]

Wirfs out is huuuuuuuge. 

not with Sweat out. BG and Sweat being out has a depleted DE for the Eagles, and their depth isn't great. 

 

[Bigboy10182000]

The pressure has to get there up the middle 

 

[-OZ-]

You would too with no WR1, RB1, RB2, WR2, starting Right Tackle, it adds up...

Isn’t Evans Playing?

 

[Insein]

Eagles defense not ready for the no huddle. 

 

[rockaction]

That's the Philly linebacker problem showing up. 

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Didn't know Bernard was back in the fold, that could be the 2nd leading receiver today as this game continues

Bucs desperately need all of their Tight Ends to show up and make plays today

 

[GoBirds]

Bar I’m at lost signal. 

 

[Cowboysfan8]

My wife doesn’t like Brady either because of the pregnant girl thing, but I don’t get it.

From all accounts he is very involved in that boys life and has been from day one. I just watched than Man in the Arena series and his oldest son by that old girlfriend is very prominent and is talked about. Looks like a pretty healthy relationship to me.

Right

And let’s be real, it’s the nfl, none of these teams are all choir boys 

 

[The General]

Brady will throw 60 passes in this game. 50 of them will be 5 yards.

 

[modogg]

has Brady thrwon a pass more than 6 yards yet? seems the wind is rough on the field, will be hard for a team to catch up if down by 2 scores

 

[rockaction]

not with Sweat out. BG and Sweat being out has a depleted DE for the Eagles, and their depth isn't great. 

 I didn't know Sweat was out until you guys said so in your thread. I roster him in IDP dynasty. That's sort of a big loss.

Bar I’m at lost signal. 

1st and goal Bucs at the 4

 

[rockaction]

Run the football here. 

 

[Bankerguy]

Fletcher Cox? Playing?

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Isn’t Evans Playing?

Godwin and Brown are a lot more explosive, I'd say on this team Evans is like Nat Moore was 3rd fiddle in Miami when Marino arrived, he was still an amazing WR and Evans is but most weeks when all 3 of them are available, I prefer the first 2, that doesn't mean Evans is a throwaway but he's a WR1 on other teams, not always in Tampa Bay when the other 2 were on all cylinders. 

Go Gio Go!

 

[Joe Mammy]

####### Gio. Vaughn for the W.

 

[rockaction]

They did. A score? Whoa. 

7-0, penalty aided. 

 

[Ilov80s]

Yeah hey didn't beat many teams but to say they don't deserve to be in the playoffs? Jesus. Maybe the teams below them should've stepped up and won more games. 

Yeah, it's not like there is some great NFC team sitting at home this weekend. The Saints were the closest team but lets face it, their offense is among the league's worst. 

 

[Insein]

Too easy

 

[modogg]

ugh, another 10 play drive and likely a TD. not a great start, but Eagles would have had the ball if they didn't give the Bucs that free 3rd play. Hoping it comes back Philly's way, because that is a big one for this game

 

[fred_1_15301]

Even when Brady looks somewhat off, they score a TD.  Bad news for the Eagles

 

[need2know]

 bad start

 

[Bigboy10182000]

DL got owned on that even when we blitzed. The DT’s HAVE to get better 

 

[Wingnut]

Brady neutralizing the Eagles pass rush by getting rid of the ball super quick.

I would be pissed too. BS call. 

 

[modogg]

think the key to this whole game is this next series or 2. If Eagles go 3 and out on first 2 drives it is likely a long day for the Eagles

 

[belljr]

Was PHL really 0-7 this year against playoff teams?  That can't be right

 

[modogg]

Brady neutralizing the Eagles pass rush by getting rod of the ball super quick.

yup, can't blame the DL too much when he gets the ball out in 3 seconds or less. Easy to just throw to those RBs out of the back and the quick throws, Eagles defense needs to adjust to at least not make those so easy

 

[Insein]

I would be pissed too. BS call. 

The players need to get over it. It's going to happen again probably at some point.

Go Gio Go!

We can disagree on AB vs Evans but either way, Evans is as good a WR1 as just about any in the league. 

Gio and the TEs are going to be busy. 

 

[NorvilleBarnes]

Excellent point. If Brady wins this, he's looking at HOF no?

 

[Ilov80s]

I would be pissed too. BS call. 

It was a bad call. I just rewatched it and he hit Brady at his waist/thigh. That's not low, that is right where you should tackle someone. 

 

[Ministry of Pain]

I've seen this wind thing coming up a lot, Florida isn't like up North, a gust here would be quick and gone, I don't believe the wind is terrible right now in Tampa but that's my take. 

I do see winds 20-25 mph online but it sure doesn't look like anyone is holding on to their caps or hats in the sun. 

 

[fred_1_15301]

That sounds right.

 

[Cowboysfan8]

I would be pissed too. BS call. 

They call that in today’s nfl. Especially with Brady and a few others. 
It’s not surprising at all 

 

[Insein]

We cannot start with 3 and out drives like we usually do. Need to come down and get points. Even a FG

 

[fred_1_15301]

In real time that was not an egregious call at all.

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Yep

The only reason they beat Dallas was a bs pass interference at the end that Tom Brady’s teams get.

Blows. But not unexpected 

 

[modogg]

i just can't wait to see them right on the left side of the line and set those up. Kelce pulls behind Dickerson and Mailatta and just see TB players getting thrown all over the place.

 

[Osaurus]

Nice start for Sanders

 

[Insein]

Worst case scenario

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Nice punt 

 

[identikit]

What a dumb call

 

[rockaction]

Shanky

 

[Amused to Death]

It was a good season.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Ok, this is going well

 

[IHEARTFF]

Welp

 

[Ilov80s]

In real time that was not an egregious call at all.

I think the NFL should consider treating roughing the passer like roughing the punter: a 15 yard version and a 5 yard version.
