NFL 2014

Because they can't just blow people off the ball. The Eagles offensive design forces people to play the whole field and play reactive defense. That edge goes away as the field shrinks. Philly doesn't blow people off the line, they redirect, as in let them come - and go right past where they needed to be. It's a solid strategy between the 20s.

Agreed. I think they have the personnel to succeed in the redzone, but they need to change up the scheme.

I'm sorry I don't have every jersey number on the Eagles memorized. One sack doesn't warrant some sort of special attention, and Cox had been considered a potential bust before this year. IIRC the broadcasters spent much more time talking about Barwin and Cole.

I'm sorry if you aren't informed read some articles or something before speaking. It's naive to act like he didn't have a great game simply because you weren't paying attention. Everyone is saying Cox had a dominant game. And no, he was never a borderline bust. He's been starting since day one and has shown flashes during his first two seasons, but this is the first year he's played at an elite level. And next time you're watching the Eagles, keep an eye on him; he's the best player on the defense.

Neither team is going anywhere. Cowboys will fall apart as usual and the Eagles D will be exposed for what it is. Packers and Seahawks are going to rip through the playoffs.

and the entire Giants team can suck a dick

The Eagles are close, but need upgrades in the secondary and improved QB play. I think they're still at least one offseason away, but are close. The QB situation makes me nervous though.

However, I do think their front seven is legitimately good and when they're getting to the QB they can compete with anybody. I feel good with Philly playing anyone in the NFC except Green Bay. The combination of a quick release QB and speedy receivers is just a bad, bad match up for the Eagles.

On the other hand, I think our D will match up well with Seattle's offense. We're stout against the run and they don't have the burners to expose our secondary.

49ers offense is really bad. Kaep doesn't look like a good qb at all.

He's not. Once defenses figured out how to defend the zone read, he descended into a fringe starter. Trading away Alex Smith looks like a massive mistake in retrospect.

 

[Matt]

Packers win a close and exciting game again. It wouldn't have been so close if Adam's had caught the touchdown pass though. I would like to see a superbowl rematch.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Packers were clearly the better team on the day. Pats did just enough to make a game of it.

Oh... and the Giants

 

[Draehl]

Can't believe the Falcons beat the Cardinals. Not that it matters, we have a much tougher schedule the rest of the season compared to The Saints.

 

[Matt]

He's not. Once defenses figured out how to defend the zone read, he descended into a fringe starter. Trading away Alex Smith looks like a massive mistake in retrospect.

He's still really young though. He's got a lot of potential, just needs time to develop it.

 

[crimsonfloyd]

When was the last time one of these mobile but inaccurate QBs actually saw their game evolve into an above average pocket passer? I guess Cunningham experienced that change during his final few years in the league, and McNabb kinda did it-though his accuracy problems never really disappeared- but for the most part these guys never change.

Cardinals might be in serious trouble. Injuries seem to finally be catching up. They may go from having the #1 seed to falling out of the playoffs all together.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

He can throw bullets, just not accurate.
Also his line has been bad. Crabtree isn't good. And VD is nonexistent.
Also the O coordinator has been shit.

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Reshad Jones is a motherfuckin' football player. Guys like that are the single reason I watch football.

btw, Wayne Chrebet, fuck yeah!

Dallas clears the .500 hurdle for the first time in years. I'm going to be so mad if they miss the playoffs with double digits in the win column. It really all comes down to next Sunday in Philly. Win and get in comes early. At least they have more than 3 days to prepare. If they go 11-5 with the only further loss coming against Philly they will probably be on the couch in January. Must be nice to play in the NFC South. Need Murray to keep getting 200 yards from scrimmage.

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

I understand Dez Bryant is a passionate guy and he cares but I just do not like the way he treats his team mates and coaches. I think he's kind of a cunt.

 

[Dak]

Well if he was having TO sorts of breakdowns I would understand that. I don't have a problem with guys on the sidelines getting fired up. What I really like to see is when the guy yelling is also putting it out on the field, which both Dez and Scandrick do/did.

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Yea maybe but the way he was pumping his chest and moving his head (like you want some mfer!) is uncalled for. He's looking to intimidate coaches and that's intolerable. I remember one time Witten had something to say on the sidelines and it looked nasty.

 

[Dak]

I don't see Garrett, Linehan, or Marinelli getting intimidated by Dez. So what is your point about Witten? Dude is a beast really. Ever since I saw this happen my fanboy status was cemented:

Cincinnati disappoints again. I may start cheering for Green Bay..

 

[Nephilim96]

Cincinnati disappoints again. I may start cheering for Green Bay..

I know a Browns fan who adopted Green Bay as his secondary team.

 

[Baroque]

Wtf 9ers. I have no explanation.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

Laughable
Greg Roman needs to go. Too many weapons to not get any yardage with. No matter who the qb is
