Jordan Matthews GOAT

My thoughts on the game.

Great great game. Horrible officiating for both teams for the most part but a truly a NFC East rival game. It's been a while since we had such a game.
I don't know if my heart can handle this all season long.

Good things:

Foles. He again missed some crucial wide open throws but he won my heart over with his toughness. Playing with 4 backup linemen, he was getting hit and thrown to the ground every other play and still got up. Even after the dirty ass cheap shot.
And he delivered when we needed him.

Maclin. He should have had that 80 yard td from that screen but oh well. Great game from him. Didn't drop any balls tonight and made several key plays.
Matthews. Finally a somewhat breakout game for the rookie. Made some key catches and didn't drop any.

Jenkins. I wasn't a huge fan of the FA signing but now I am. He is the leader of the secondary and has made some clutch plays.

ST did its thing.

Bad things:
Offensive linemen depth. I don't think Kelce's injury is too serious but we were playing with 4 backup linemen after Peters got ejected. This reminds me of that horrible 2012 season.
Lesean Mccoy. He got knocked out pretty bad. I honestly thought we should have sidelined him even though he didn't have a concussion. He took a beating all game long.
LB and secondaries. Jesus we made Kirk look like Peyton Manning today. We are really thin at LB after Kendricks went down last week since both of our backup ILB are in IR.
Pass Rush. Non-existent throughout the whole game. Cousins had all the time in the world to throw.

Anyways a tough win at home. 3-0 first time since 2004

My thoughts on the game...

Offense was literally shit. No run game or pass game. I know we are down to only 2 starting linemen but there is no excuse for this performance. Shady...cmon man. I know it's hard running when linemen can't block but freaking run north. Stop dancing around and gain like 1 yard or lose 2 yards. Just keep your head down and explode forward. Nick seriously needs to work on his deep ball or something... It's a huge concern now with how many times he's missing wide fucking open receivers down the field. Overthrowing every single one of them.

I think Cooper has dropped at least one td pass each game. No excuse esp getting the money he is getting. Literally been shit this entire season.
On the other side, Maclin is playing out of his mind and bailing Foles. That left one handed catch was so clutch.

Special Teams basically carry this team until the end. Sproles is one of the best trade in the offseason.

Defensively, I can't be too mad at them considering they were on the field for 80% of the game. Cox looked great. Jenkins is a freaking stud. They kept getting hosed with BS personalities but oh well.
Great to see pass rush come alive though.

I know the offense will rebound from yesterday. There is no way they are truly that bad, lol.

Foles has concerned me a lot this year, always over throwing his receivers.. We'd be crushing people if he didn't overthrow literally 4+ times a game and hit the receiver instead.

So proud of the D and special teams.

4-1 even though we don't look like it

Chip should have challenged the spot. I thought it was clear Polk got the 1st down but we got a horrible ball placement by the refs. But this was my biggest pet peeve. WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU TAKING A SHOTGUN SNAP on 3rd and INCHES. Put the qb under center and do a freaking qb sneak. It works almost every single time.

On that last play, I thought Foles should have gave Maclin a chance. He was one on one outside and the cb was playing like 20 yards off of him. Matthews was open but Foles hit him too late due to pressure in the middle. Ugh it hurts so bad because it was so close.

could have started our punter at QB. you peons didn't have a shot at all

Fly Eagles, FLY!
