Sad to hear that only the Eagles had to compete on a lovely field. Tough break.

The slick field was the best possible thing to happen. Not only did the team that was going to lose anyway lose, their stupid fans will think What If? until their death bed (pile of crates behind a wawa)

i agree that if the eagles were better able to maintain traction they could've won that game handily, but a) that's on the equipment manager more than anything else and b) that's assuming the chiefs don't just run the same goddamn touchdown play another three or four times because gannon couldn't adjust the three biggest issues were the lovely defensive scheming, the Hurts fumble for a TD, and the turf. none of those were out of the team's hands (though the fumble is a fluke, unlike the other two things where you can readily say "mm okay let's patch this up right now").

The game could have been played on the concrete from The Vet, in Kelly Green uniforms, and all seats are in the 700 Level, and the defensive scheme would still be terrible.

My biggest fear is that the defense sucking wasn't actually Gannons fault and it comes home to roost this season

The eagles had a 10 point lead at half and it would have been larger if not for the funny hurts turnover

I hadn't consciously realized it but Wawas don't really have a mountain of milk crates out back of their stores anymore, at least not in the city limits or southeastern metro area. sometimes you'll see a stack or two of plastic mail bins but it's just not the same. how sad

when they moved their bread in-house that was basically a wrap. no reason to get a sandwich there unless they were running a decent promotion, which they haven't for years. still usually cheapest gas option though at least on my route

like I'm being flip but I've argued in here before that the whole "the eagles couldn't beat the 49ers if purdy didn't get hurt" thing doesn't hold water for me because the eagles' primary strength (a historic pass rush) is exactly what created the situation in which purdy got hurt. he didn't slip in the shower, he got hit.

I don't know that Purdy was that great - very small sample size. It's also very rare for a team to go into a game with literally only one option at quarterback. They mostly had 2-3 per game. The 49ers had basically half a qb anyways in a rookie that had been lucky in a system where he wasn't asked to do much. That they had no one else is a failure of the coaches and the 49ers front office. I don't say that to diminish the eagles pass rush, but beating a team that doesn't have a quarterback for 3/4 of the game isn't really a huge thing to hang your hat on. This isn't to say that the eagles did poorly. This is to say that if there were actual quarterbacks on the other side of the ball, it might not have been as big of a blowout or even an eagles win. It's mind boggling that sanfran didn't sign anybody who could actually get out there and play QB when they were down to one on the roster. That's one of the most egregiously dumb loving decisions a front office has made recently and had a much more significant impact on the outcome of a playoff game last year than the turf did in the superbowl.

euphronius posted:If the has a better back up they would have been demolished as well Maybe. Probably not. Injuries are an accident and I don't think the eagles knocked more than one QB out of a game all season if they even did cause another QB to leave the game. If you're suggesting that your defense was deliberately working to injure players that would be kindof lovely and against the general ideas of sportsmanship.
