Looks great to me!
Whethe its Brown or Lewis I could careless about the KR with the new rules...anyone should be able to catch the ball and kneel down. With us having Steve Smith this season I'm OK with them wanting to use Jackson and Maclin for PR. Jackson has been awesome at it and I'm glad they're starting him there.
sooo, you're picking the Rams to win this week?
The Rams are on a team on the rise and the game is away. It wouldn't be that big of a shocker.sooo, you're picking the Rams to win this week?
I'm not really sure how to take that...we couldnt deal him and now he comes back as 4th CB...It looks like we as Eagle fans had a much higher opinion of him then the rest of the league did...
I wouldnt have been shocked if we lost or played a close game against them before this happening. I'm just wondering what they could have seen in DeVan so fast that made them change this now...or maybe it's what they saw in Watkins...either way this isnt good.sooo, you're picking the Rams to win this week?
I would think it will be a close game. but very surprising if eagles cant pull it out somehowsooo, you're picking the Rams to win this week?
To be fair Watkins has had a little over a month to get grasp of Mudd's scheme. DeVan has been here and don this before so i'd put him in there for a few weeks until they feel they are comfortable with Watkins gonig in. I think he'll eventually get it, this O-Line I think will come out and surprise people Sunday and eventually dominate.
Especially when he was supposed to be able to jump right into the starting lineup because of his age. He is going to be 27 in less then two months. Looking like a mistake.
And he was the one Mudd wanted, correct?
Yes, I am. Would it shock me if the Eagles won the game? Not at all. But I think the Rams will be better this year, Theyare playing at home, and they have a fresh Steven Jackson would could conceivably run all over the Eagles front seven.Obviously, I think the Eagles talent will eventually come together; it is just ashame their first two games are against decent conference opponents on the road.sooo, you're picking the Rams to win this week?
I've had them starting the season 1-1 since the schedule came out and I won't change that now. 10-6 is reasonable. Winning the NFC East is nice. But they need to win a playoff game or 2. They've lost their last 3 and haven't won a home playoff game since '06. For me, I don't care if they go 9-7 (or 9-6-1) and win the WC or go 12-4 with a bye. They have to win in the post season. 12-4/13-3 don't mean squat if they don't go deep in the playoffs. Another one-and-done would be an unsuccessful season imo.
Maybe not a shocker, but the Eagles are pretty big favorites coming in at around -240 at most gambling sites. Sure the Rams are improved, but they still aren't better than the Eagles; home or away.The Rams are on a team on the rise and the game is away. It wouldn't be that big of a shocker.sooo, you're picking the Rams to win this week?
Welcome to my little corner of the room. I have some soda and cake if you are hungry lol.I really have to wonder what Reid & Juan are thinking by watching Mudd pretty much gut the Oline & Depth that they built up ( never said it was a great build though ) only to leave the line with the same questions.
Yea I am already setting bets on how many yards Jackson drags Matthews for in total
The idea is if you draft a 27 year old rookie, he needs to make an immediate impact, if not you should have drafted someone younger. Watkins really does not have a year to burn to learn the game. If he was 22 it would not be that big a deal. I have no idea why you think he will be starting before the bye. Is he going to get better on the bench? They did everything they could to allow for him to start and it did not work. The fact that he can't even play guard is telling. Drafting a guard in the first round is usually a bad move, let alone a 26.5 year old one. He's Winston Justice part 2.Before 1 game is played?Watkins will be starting before the bye.
I think if they start out slow and come on near the end of the season to finish 10-6, they will be in good shape heading into the playoffs. Yes, playing an extra wildcard game and playing on the road is not preferable, but the Steelers, Giants, and Packers were all able to win the Superbowl from the wildcard game. I think with the talent the Eagles have, if they all get adjusted to each other and the new coaches by the end of the season they could easily go on a roll and have a successful postseason. That's my hope, of course.
You would have a point if this was week 1 of 2012. But it's not so you don't. There was this thing called the lockout that deprived him of months of learning and reps. An extra month of work will get him starting by the bye week.The idea is if you draft a 27 year old rookie, he needs to make an immediate impact, if not you should have drafted someone younger.

not sure what you are implying? Does that mean it didn't have an impact?
Happy to see I blew this prediction. Although it did help that Steven Jackson went out with an injury with a 28 yards per carry average.I would love to see the Eagles nut it up against the Falcons and come home 2-0. It will be a tough game though, especially with the Falcons desperate after getting killed by the Bears.Yes, I am. Would it shock me if the Eagles won the game? Not at all. But I think the Rams will be better this year, Theyare playing at home, and they have a fresh Steven Jackson would could conceivably run all over the Eagles front seven.Obviously, I think the Eagles talent will eventually come together; it is just ashame their first two games are against decent conference opponents on the road.sooo, you're picking the Rams to win this week?
Vick returning home. Gonna be the game of the week on all the news channels.Happy to see I blew this prediction.

I get a baaaddd feeling about this game. IMO, Turner is going to kill that D. He ran for 100 against CHI and they have a much better front 7 than the Eagles do.Happy to see I blew this prediction.

I forget if I heard it here or somewhere else but I recall hearing that the way Castillo's defense is played, the SAM has a bigger role. I believe that the way the DL attacks leaves the SAM out on a bit of an island and can become an attacker as well as cover the TE so I think they see Cheney as being able to fill that role better. But yes, Matthews definitely could be improved on out there. I was surprised we never went after any of the veteran MLB's that were available in free agency.
I think the Eagles pass all over Atlanta. Atlanta will try to slow the game down but they have no answer for our speed on the outside. If the Eagles do not get up on the right away, it could be a long day. Actually I am 99% sure thats how its going to be for most of the games of this season.I get a baaaddd feeling about this game.

Matthews worries me. He was getting swallowed up by blockers. Not too worried about the OLine. Most of the free runners at Vick were due to missed assignments not linemen getting physically beat. Once they get used to playing with each other and knowing the assignments the protection will be better.I can already see the gameplan against the Eagles will be run, run, run.
It was the most reassuring thing that came from that game. Vick, Desean and McCoy are going to get theirs. The D-Line was just awesome yesterday. Now they need to work on the run-stopping though. That's where the weakness at LB is going to be exposed over and over this year.
Not to mention he hasn't been playing football for that long.
