"Miles Sanders will not make the trip to Washington and, due to a hamstring injury that had him listed as questionable, is out for Sunday’s opener against the Washington Football Team."

Well shit.

The fuck did we even do this offseasoN

Half of the offensive line is out or injured

Starting rb has a hamstring injury. Raegor been on the injury list all week

Alshon still a bum and inb4 Djax injury

Games haven't even started we're down the guy who was supposed to be starting at LT, RT, RG, RB, DE, and DT.

Might as well sit Wentz so he doesn't die.

Pederson said Lane Johnson, Derek Barnett, and Miles Sanders will definitely be at practice today. He said the team's optimistic Johnson will be able to play. Brandon Graham (concussion) and Javon Hargrave (hamstring, pec strain) won't.

Head coach Doug Pederson on DT Javon Hargrave: "He's getting closer. Not gonna put a timetable on it. We'll get him back when we get him back."



Need Hargrave to make his debut with the birds something serious. Gave him all that money we need to see him playing hopefully soon.

Silver lining: Eagles are #1 in total defense after week 1. Only gave up 239 total yards and only 3.4 yards per play which is the lowest in the NFL.

Lane Johnson's return will be huge, and they NEED Sanders back asap. Looking closer at the game, the INT's Wentz threw were not really due to lack of protection. They were inaccurate, poor decision, chemistry-lacking throws to rookies (who also didn't do him any favors by not playing the ball). Wentz was just not good in this game other than the 1st quarter and a half. In one of Doug's earlier pressers this week he even said the 2nd INT "slipped" out of Carson's hand when he threw it...this can't happen.

Big Wentz supporter, but I put a lot of the loss on him. They didn't go up 17-0 for no reason, the O line had good moments early on, but 8 sacks later the loss is completely pinned on them by most. The defense played extremely well. RB's completely blew protection on 1-2 of those sacks as well (missing sanders hurt in pass pro big time). Needless to say getting your starting RB and right tackle back will help tremendously, but Carson has to be better.

What do you guys think has been the Eagles biggest problem so far this season? Personally, I think Wentz being careless with the ball and all the sacks have been the biggest reason the birds are 0-2. That's probably number one. What else do you guys think has factored to the bird's poor start?

Bruh.

Has to be Wentz so far. I heard there was a video about how he's making the right reads but just having terrible throws. Defense has been great, but it's definitely a problem that they get gassed later on in games -- but that just means the offense needs to do better with second half time of possession

Greg Ward about to save this season

Imagine not playing this guy who saved our season last year because you drafted JJ Arecegashitside in the 2nd round over DK Metcalf and now have to justify playing him over a legitimately better football player who came from the PS

This team is fucking ridiculous.



We thought Mike Groh was the problem but the offense has been shit since Reich left the team. KC has not missed a beat without Pederson at OC. He decided to not hire a new OC but instead put a bunch of boyos at a bunch of random assistant positions and make an offense by committee. Just fucking retarded.

We got fooled.

Linebackers are complete trash and Wentz has been playing like dogshit.

Howie's drafts has been beyond shit-tier and he keeps bringing back trash washed up players like Alshon and JP.
