The Eagles will be good unless they end up with half the roster on IR as is always possible

Sean Payton taunting people always goes well for Sean Payton. He should keep doing it, this poo poo is great. Either he's a prophet and his clout goes up or we get to lmao at his smug dumb face, win-win

Exactly. Or you can be like the posters who said "what a great throw" when I posted Hurtz throwing a duck into double coverage and AJ Brown bailing him out.

Funny mentioning the Eagles and Titans, because the NFCE went 14-2 against the AFCS last year.

NFC teams had 9 home games last year. H2H is always gonna be skewed because one conference has 9 home games now

The Eagles defense last year was on par with Chicago 85 or Tampa. It was historically great. They are loaded at every position but once Hurts threw a bad pass. See? They suck! This is why you watch the games!

I took a Rhine day cruise that wasn't bad. Smaller boat than that one.

Wouldn't do it on the other side of the world, though. I had an experience in Cambodia pretty much like Bill Shatner and Jon Lithgow in the Twilight Zone, except I was in a bus driving parallel to a barge steaming up the Mekong, pointing in horror and yelling "IS NOBODY ELSE SEEING THIS poo poo BUT ME"

I just wanna know what Jordan Roos did to deserve a 1 pass block rating.

He played 200 offensive snaps last year and is credited by PFF with no penalties or sacks allowed.

Eagles nearly lost to Cooper Rush, that really can't be overstated.


They're frauds

The Bengals DID lose to Rush, as did (less impressively) the Giants, Commanders, and Rams. I have no explanation for this except NFCE Bullshit. If anything you could spin this as an indictment of Dak, that he went down and they didn't miss a beat.

The Eagles probably ran a little hot last year, and they indisputably had one of the easiest schedules I've ever seen. They still seem like WAY less of a mirage than the Giants. They have legit stars all over the field on offense and defense. Losing both coordinators is a potential issue although I think Eagles fans would tell you "losing" Gannon is addition by subtraction.

This is a weird take on a game the Eagles very nearly won if any single one of a bunch of things went their way (in before "yeah but they didn't")

This graph makes a very good point that you can put anything in a graph and people will believe it. No poo poo O-Lines are going to be rated lower if you assign a tiny value to people who haven't played yet. The left side and right side of your o-line being good is only as valuable as how the defense lines up against you. There's a reason some RTs have hugely inflated numbers on that list, look at their LTs and visa versa. Of course teams are going to be abusing the rookie Evan Neal over the top tier Andrew Thomas.

The "data driven" part is just him relisting pass blocking grades that are already based on PFF scores, IE if you let someone through that's a 0, if you pancake them that's a 2, and a 1 is anything in between that the intern watching decides is okay without knowing blocking assignments.

Nuke PFF from orbit.

I mean even having a normal, non-slip and slide field could have been enough of a difference. The Eagles defense was definitely affected by that. Sure they both played on the same field but it's an equalizer for sure.
