Every game is important, a “must win.” The Eagles with their fourth loss of the season in addition to their fourth conference loss, may have very well “capped” how far this season will go.
I expect the Eagles to rebound from last week. Move past the pathetic effort against the Seahawks and play better in every phase of the game against the Cowboys like you did on Thanksgiving. Explode on the offensive side of the football against a bad defense like you have done all season long. There is no reason to think the Eagles won’t win this football game; Dallas is the exact type of team that Chip has had success beating all season long.
Not to look down the road and predict how the reason of the season will pan out, but I like the Eagles to win out, finish as NFC East divisional winners with a 12-4 record.
Here is the issue I’m seeing. I also feel the Seahawks are going to win out, which means the probable outcome for this Eagles season is at the “very” most; “one” playoff win. With the way the Packers and Seahawks play at home; I have difficulty giving the Eagles a realistic chance of coming away with a victory at either Lambeau or CenturyLink Field.
If the Eagles do indeed follow this path, win their division with a very respectable 12 wins, host and win a playoff game, does that equate to a successful year two under head coach Chip Kelly?
Will we think back to either the 49ers or Cardinals game; ponder at the fact that if “we only” this one play that we could have gone even further in the playoffs by hosting a second playoff game?
The Packers destroyed us with their offense and minimized what our defense could do. The Seahawks made our offense look vanilla, as did the 49ers.
The Cardinals game is going to be the one we look back on as a game that could have really altered how this season “could” have ended.
Mathematically, the Eagles are pretty much “capped” Even if they “sweep” they don’t stand much of a chance of moving past the Packers or the Cards…..with SF lurking.
In the West, Eagles are 2 behind Arizona and 1/2 behind Seattle. The only way Eagles move ahead there is if:
1 – Eagles sweep (possible)
2 – Arizona Loses both remaining games (possible). If Arizona wins 1 game, they automatically stay ahead.
3 – Seattle loses at least one game – as long as its not the Arizona game. That they’d have to win. So they’d have to lose to either SF or STL. Both those games are in Seattle.
With SF becoming a circus without a coach or QB….I can’t see how they win out against both Sea and Ariz.
In the North…GB is 1.5 games ahead with TB, Buffalo and Det on the sched. They only need to win 2 of those to move into the 2nd seed. Who’d bet against that?
Very little chance.
Hey Vinnie
If Detroit Wins out (Vikings,Bears & Packers) then they are # 2 Seed
over the Packers.. Packers then Drop to a 5th Seed and will come to Visit the Linc in the 1st Round Playoffs, while the Cardinals/Seahawks would host the Falcons
Remember in the Summer when we talked about Teams hitting the Skids this Season due to various reasons… I had the 49ers and Saints
as Under-Performing Teams while I think you had the 49ers & Redskins
(Or maybe it was the Bears)
The 49ers as I stated had the most off-season Arrests, tons of distactions, Lost Key Veteran Players in Free-Agency like (D Whitner & C ogers) Had Stud Players like N Bowman, M Iupati, A Davis all coming off major Injuries, had Best Pass-Rusher Aldon Smith Suspended and a HC & GM not on the same page about anything for 2 + Years.. I stated that this would be Jim Harbaugh’s final Season for the 49ers and it appears that I was correct
The 49ers did have a kick ass Draft in 2013 & 2014 so they will bounce back once they get someone who can improve Kapernick..
The Saints were another Train wreck I called due to released 10-1 Veteran PLayers that helped bring a Super Bowl to NO.. too much was made of the TE J Graham hold out, they Paid way too much for often injured Safety Jarius Byrd at the expense of Cutting/Releasing/Trading their heart and soul of the Team with Players like Will Smith, Jon Vilma, Malcolm Jenkins, Roman Harper, Darren Sproles,Tracey Porter…. You just can’t clean out a locker room of this many Quality Players and Leaders in 1 Off-Season when there are not enough quality players to replace them with…
They Split their whole Team in order to Sign J Byrd and Jimmy Graham…
Stupid-Stupid,Stupid moves by GM Micky Loomis and HC Sean Payton
Y…I did well on my “yearlies”
I went
Under on Raiders Correct (for about 10 str8 years)
Under on Buffalo Wrong (for first time in about 10 years)
I’ve aromatically bet under on those 2 for the past decade and promised myself I would continue until one of them actually went “over” which Buffalo finally did
Under on NYG correct….them to 9 was a joke
Under on SF correct…..it was 10.5…LOL….with Krapernick and an aging team…11 wins had no chance
Under on Jets Correct….Mike Vick and Geno Smith?? I would have bet “under” 4…but it was 7.5!!!!
So 4-1 on my picks….I also liked Washington under, but always limit myself to 5 a year.
Paulman, I don’t think there is any possibility of the Packers coming to Philly in first round. If GB gets 5th seed, they would visit Atl or NO. Eagles will either get 3rd seed (most likely) or not make it at all. The perfect scenario would be for Detroit or Arizona to get the 2 seed and Eagles to get the 3rd playing a first round playoff game against either ARI, Detroit or Dallas. This would pair GB and SEA up in 2nd round.
If Lions Win Out , they Win NFC North and get the #2 Seed
If Packers lose 2 of 3, they would likely fall to a 6th Seed
Depending on what Cards/Seahawks finish…
(remember Seahawks beat Packers head to head if they were to
Tie with same 11-5 Records as Wildcards)
I’d say it’s almost impossible for the Packers to lose 2 of their next 3.
i meant Sea lurking, obv not SF
Drew Stanton suffered a sprained ACL and Grade 2 MCL sprain in Thursday night’s Week 15 game against the Rams, so I’m going to give the Seahawks the win when they match up in Arizona. The Cards have been destroyed with injuries, and Seahawks are playing at the level that won them a Super Bowl last year.
I actually think the Cards will fall to the 49ers week 17, which puts them at 11-5. it will get interesting between them the Cowboys and Lions for who gets the 2 wildcard playoff spots. I think the Cards and Lions get in, the Cowboys will be no match for Luck, Allen/Fleener will torch the LB core of the Cowboys D.
There’s a lot of work and games to be Played by all the Teams in the NFL..
We saw last evening that Cardinals lost Starter Drew Stanton to a knee injury..
How far can they legitimately go with a 3rd/4th String QB..
These last 3 Games (Cowboys,Giants & Redskins) are no gimmee’s at all for the Eagles who need to keep their Focus and take each Game and Week seriously and finish on a high note of Playing good, physical, smart Team
Ball..
The Cowboys were embarrassed on their Home Field on Turkey Day and
are coming into Philly with their mouths shout and determined to return the favor…
The Giants Offense has gotten untracked with the emergence of WR Beckham Jr who has like 900 Yards and 5-6 TD’s in less than a half of Season of Games… and the Return of RB R Jennings has given them more of a Running Presence..
The Redskins are a total disaster and probably won’t another game this Season, but usually play the Eagles Close..
As far as the Packers,Seahawks that everyone is talking about,
don’t sleep on the Detroit Lions who are also 9-4 and play the Vikings,Bears and Close with the Packers and beat the Packers earlier this Season and hold the Tie-Break against them… The Lions finally have WR Megatron healthy and RB R Bush is just about healthy to get ready for the stretch run
HC Jim Caldwell has brought Discipline, Accountability and has this Lion Team playing smarter, protecting the ball and eliminating the stupid penalties that plagued them under Coach Jim Schwartz
agree Caldwell > Schwartz
Eagles have to beat the Cowboys and win either the Washington or NYG game to make the playoffs. They could finish 11-5 and miss the playoffs if they lose to the cowboys this Sunday since all the losses would be conference games, meaning the birds would be at the bottom of the pecking order in tie breakers.
If Eagles win here, then Dallas will go home feeling their season is over. They should get pancaked by Indy.
Though I HATE that the Skins game is on a Saturday. Lose that and they could give a flicker of hope to the Boys….getting ahead of myself I suppose…..but the reality is, if Eagles win Sunday, Dallas goes home broken and defeated.
I am scared to death of 3 things Sunday:
1 – Fletcher
2 – Williams
3 – Sanchez
Not necessarily in that order.
Eagles rushed for 258 yards on Thanksgiving in Dallas so hopefully they won’t need Sanchez this weekend.
That (258 Yards) won’t happen again..
If Eagles can get 160-170 Yards on the Ground, then they will be in good shape… Cowboys had no legs in that game on either side of the ball on that Thankgsiving Game off the Short week, this time they are coming in with 9 days rest and practice and this will be a much closer game
‘Capped how far this season will go’????? I don’t understand that comment? Does that mean because they might have to play in GB or Seattle they could not go further? Does this ‘author’ (term author used with a wink and my fingers crossed) follow sports? Season capped? I think if they have to go to one of those places they should save the plane fair and not bother showing up? Capped from going far? WTF?
Seriously, what a damn loser mentality, guess those wild card teams that won super bowls should have just capped it and threw in the towel
Try etch a sketch kolosky
This is it…showdown with the Cowboys! We need to win the battle in the trenches…our D-Line has to dominate again. The Cowboys O-Line is going to want payback…we have to step up.
On Offense, we have to run the ball. Shady is our key player on offense..all Sanchez has to do is manage the game and he has been more effective in this area than Foles. So our chances to win this game is improved with Sanchez and Foles injury is actually an advantage for the Eagles.
Foles play against Dallas last year was extremely shaky. We saw some of the worst QB play in Eagles history in the first game against Dallas and Foles was very shaky in our win over Dallas. We were bailed out with a last minute interception by Boykin!
Sanchez play on Thanksgiving was far better and more effective than any of Foles performances against Dallas…so we should be ok as long as our running game is effective
Goddamn koolbreeze..will you get off the Foles shit for a minute…he is not even playing. After he comes back next season to take the reigns you can continue to bitch , moan and complain. Until then give it a fucking rest dude you are as irritating as poison ivy. Can you just talk some football. Whatever happen to you breaking down why Manziel and Tahj Boyd would flourish in Chip ‘s system. What is your analysis ? You will probaby say…well they are better than Foles…lol…it is a fuckin joke
Eaglehaslanded, stop bitching…you guys have been on Sanchez all week…you act as if the losses we have against GB and Seattle were his fault!
Cant break down how Manziel would play in this system because he plays for Cleveland…I wouldn’t mind bring Boyd in as a free agent…like I wanted to at draft time for a kick the tires see if Chip can work with him.
Dont worry…Sanchez is going to manage the game, and he wont cost us the game like Foles did against San Francisco. Run the ball, play solid defense and special teams, and get good game management out of Sanchez and we are looking at wrapping up the division with one more win.
So stop ya bitching and moaning Eagleshaslanded about Foles and be a true Eagles fan and back Sanchez!
Go Eagles
When Foles takes his job back will u be a true eagles fan?
your not a true eagles fan now since Foles is not in there
Koolbreeze, without question, the BIGGEST BITCHING AWARD on GCOBB.COM for the 2013-2014 -2014-2015 football seasons goes to YOU. Once again, you continuously demonstrate the inability to move on from bitching about Foles’ play…lol…even when he isn’t playing. You are a classic OCD case…you can’t help yourself.
You would not mind bringing in Tahj Boyd, but 32 GM’s and coaches are not interested. You continuously demonstrate a true lack of understanding of what makes a good QB, that’s why you say the foolish things you do, e.g., wanting Tahj Boyd as a first round pick, when he actually went in the 6th…by the Jets…lmao! Kick the tires my ass, don’t lie dude! You wanted him in the 1st as a franchise starting QB as that is what you projected him as by comparing him to Mike Vick. You thought he could be Mike Vick like! Just because someone is mobile and has a strong arm does not mean they can be an effective QB, yet, that is your only knowledgeable criteria for a QB. Once again, your inability to understand four essential components for being a good QB…. 1. visual motor integration combined with mechanics which is needed for accuracy, 2. processing speed which is needed for reading defenses quickly, 3.footwork which is needed to manipulate the pocket and accuracy…4. Heart and the desire to be good through studying the position, other teams defenses, and other great QB’s disables you from understanding what makes a good QB, Tahj Boyd has mobility, however he lacks the processing speed, heart and desire to study defenses and other good QB’s, his mechanics are horrible as well, when he sets his feet to throw from the pocket, his foot placement and spread of his legs in the pocket are off and he has a very long throwing range of motion which slows down his release time. Notice I did not say a strong arm, as long as the QB has good mechanics and an average arm and knows how to set his feet, he can make most NFL throws, they may not get there at a high velocity, but they can get there…See Joe Montana. Boyd is a good college and Canadian type football QB, but his processing ability, skills and desire to be a good NFL pro is not there. You are the only one who can’t see that, that’s why you wanted to draft him in the first round.
When I repeatedly asked you for an analysis of what makes you think Boyd or Manziel was a good fit for Chips system, that’s what I was looking for, but you failed to even attempt to give any explanation, the reason being is because your knowledge is limited as it relates to what makes a good QB. The only thing you talk on here kool 99% of the time is shiiiiit !
You can breakdown how Manziel would play because you have seen him play, you see his mobility, mechanics, footwork, mental processing. You have also heard the stories about his lack of desire to study, that’s why he runs around after his first or second read is not there, his instincts to run takes over, instead of waiting for his 3rd option or hot read he runs, Manziel does not read defenses well either. His running around in the pro’s will get him constantly hurt as he is only 5’11” 195 and runs at the first sight of the pocket breaking down. Manziel’s best attribute is his mobility and accuracy when he is on the move. As far as Chip’s system, Manziel would not excel because he lacks accuracy from the pocket, which is due to his overall mechanics and desire to not prepare as he would need to. He will not get away with or last in the pro’s by running around and letting his impulse and instincts to run. His decision making is questionable at best…and isn’t that what Chip said he needs at QB, an accurate passer who makes good decisions when passing the ball. Manziel’s mobility would help him, however, he would leave a lot of plays on the field due to his limitations, his footwork in the pocket as far as setting his feet to pass are terrible, that’s why a lot of his passes from the pocket are long, short, behind the receiver or in the ground. That is a quick analysis as to why Manziel would not excel in the Eagles offense, Chip knows this, that’s why he does not want him and did not choose him….period!
Stop bullshitting and making up excuses as to why you can’t give an analysis, you will not because you don’t know what to look for nor do you know what you are talking about. Your knowledge is limited to a surface level understanding at best. All you know is having a strong arm and mobility, that’s why Kap, Cam, RG3 struggles, because that is essentially what they have as a QB. You’re a fraud Kool…and I just proved it!
LOL, Browns coach Mike Pettine said he DOES NOT want Manziel playing street ball. That’s why Chip said no thanks. Manziel is a free lancer not used to playing a disciplined style of football in a system!Manziel will have a good game this season, however, when his pro tendencies are put on tape watch what happens next year when defensive coordinators takes his natural tendencies and strengths away from him. He better study and prepare this off season.
Kap, Cam, and RG3 have different circumstances but all suffer from the main issue that their teams won’t commit to a read-option type offense in order to utilize all of their talents. The Seahawks make no apologies for running read-option and their quarterback kills teams with it, meanwhile he will steadily get better operating from the pocket as time goes on. Meanwhile Fole’s Gold is in an offense that is perfect for those other qbs and puts up similar numbers or worse.
I mean, you don’t realize that both RG3 and Kap have better qb ratings than Foles’ Gold right? Both of them have better completion%, yds./pass att., int%, etc. Both have higher numbers across the board this year except for one category- Foles td% is better than both. That’s it. Imagine if they were in offenses that fit their skill set, like Chip Kelly’s offense. Cam Newton has identical numbers to Foles, but the difference is he lost 3 receivers from last year’s team while dealing with a line where all the starters are former undrafted free agents. On Espn Insiders they showed how the Panthers didn’t spend ONE high draft pick on an offensive lineman. Yet Fole’s has way better talent, is in a better system, but still manages to put similar or worse numbers to all these qbs that are supposedly bad?
Not to mention Sanchez has better numbers across the board except for int%, 3.6 to 3.2 for Foles. Every other stat he’s better by a wider margin than a measly .4.
Skayne, FYI, whether Foles is the answer for the Eagles or not is not my concern. I have laid out my plan for what I think the Eagles should do whether Foles is the guy or not. My posts today has, nor had anything to do with Foles, everything to do with Manziel, Tahj Boyd, and Tahj Boyd Jr.What I do know is that Sanchez is not the answer. As far as RG3, Cam and kap is concerned, when you run a college system that allows you to freelance it takes away from their development to become a pocket passer and a read option QB. That is truly the dual threat, when you are not a good pocket passer, you are not a real dual threat, teams simply strategize to keep you in the pocket knowing you will struggle. Just like teams strategize to pressure Foles to see if he can beat the blitz. I like Jared Goff and Mariotta, if the Eagles could land either, nice knowing you Nick. Sorry, I’m not on the Nick Foles is the guy for sure train so all that madness does not apply to me. I do know that Sanchez is not a better option to sign to a long term deal!
In other words it’s someone else’s fault that these quarterbacks suck? Right!
And why is it that all you guys seem to know what a chip type of QB wants yet he got rid of Vick, drafted Barkley, signed Sanchez and hooked his wagon to foles? Why doesn’t he listen to u guys?
HAC, that is a ? many have asked this crowd, but they have not and can not answer, although Chip has repeatedly answered it for them, but they refuse to believe it…just refuse to.
What a long rambling piece of bullshit…first you are a damm lie..I never said we should get Boyd with a first round pick…I wanted Manziel with clear statements that said I would understand why Kelly would not take him…and I wanted help for the defensive line that got pushed around in the playoffs.
Manziel has the arm strength, the guts, the speed to play in this system…the question would be can he develop his game like Russell Wilson. In Chip’s system which makes the reads easier for the QB, he would be fine in the pocket.
Stop bullshitting us like you have some “analysis” to give Eaglehaslanded…your an idiot and you proved it with that long, rambling, bullshit…LMAO
Koolbreeze, no, it just demonstrates that you are not used to reading a well laid out informative post. My piece is actually laid out quite well for you. It stays on topic and proves my point, you just are not used to reading in-depth cogent and concise material with meaning. You like to read shit like The Cat In The Hat and other Dr. Seuss type shit that is on your reading comprehension level..I get it you though. I tried to break it down for you and make it life skills proof, but you are only accustomed to reading the same type of garbage you post….. Just surface level bullshit you bullshitter. You wanted to take Tahj Boyd with your first round pick, while everyone else said no thanks..until the 6th round…LMAO at you all day Tahj BoydJr. LOL…why you mad Tahj Boyd Jr?
First you say you can not do an analysis on Manziel, then in your post up above, you try to do an analysis using the information I brought up about Manziel’s and Boyd’s strengths and weaknesses. …what a lame brain lying ass loser! But hey, I see you learned something from what I wrote…congratulations. You have ZERO knowledge as to what the hell you are talking about…you know it, and I know it! The only idiot on here is you, and the proof is that you wanted Tahj Boyd in the 1st round….LMAO at you Tahj all day every day!!!.
koolbreeze, you wanted Manziel, Tahj Boyd (who maybe out of the league) or Louis Nix III, who I told you was a health risk and his commitment to football was not there, nor was he that good anyway. He does not have the desire to really play, but you still wanted him. 2 out of your potential 3 first round picks for the Eagles are complete nonfactors. Manziel, as his coach says, no street ball, we will see. Kelly did not want him, that’s for sure, but hey, you know what chip needs better than Chip….lol.
Oh, I wanted Deone Buchannon, How’s he doing? Damn good son!!!
Tahj Boyd, Johnny “streetball” Manziel, and Louis Nix III…Kool’s first round prospects for the Eagles….lmao at you!!!
Sorry kook, Boyd cannot get out of his flag football contract. He gets a $50 walmart gift card for each win.
Yes a young Foles had a bad game against Dallas but were you at the game last weekend at the muni park? Boyd’s bombers against pesky Pete’s …. Tahj threw three picks… In Seattle they have the legion of doom but pesky Pete has the perfect pickoffs in their secondary!
I don’t understand how Dallas didn’t have legs in that game didn’t they both play on 4 days rest ijs,to me it looks,like the eagles are,the,better team due to there front 7 I have to give props when there due I wanted cox to step his game up and he has he no longer looks,like a bust he looks like the 1st Rd monster he was,meant to be
Jeff kolsky ..??? The terminology “capped” references the fiscal attributes of a given team in a given year..?The rhetorical question… is 12-4 in the second year of chip Kelly a positive with a playoff home game …win.is just as ignorant ….is the pope catholic? The whole key to the game is the rushing attack ..keeping Murray under wraps ,and getting shady positive results to create second and short distance downs …and allowing for the possibility that a well rested Romo ,who didn’t take a pain shot on thanksgiving ,will present a more formidable fight..Kool You really don’t want to revisit last year in its entirety of Foles ..27-tds.2/ints…yes he was concussed in the Dallas game ,and played poorly ..but what the hell has that got to do with Sunday night? Kolsky ..Kool…just because both your last names start with K …I’ll use the k word…knuckleheads …
What he meant….I think….was that….no matter what, Eagles are “capped” into the 3rd seed……and if they bead Dallas….then that’s going to be the case.
Still an improvement over last year and the year before. Moving in right dirction.
What might hinder that?
1 – Fletcher
2 – Williams
3 – Sanchez
Not necessarily in that order
Every Eagles fan – not named Koolidiot – is worried about the the same 3 players.
Kool…. tight windows …
…..tough throws….
Remember….everything KoolIdiot says….the opposite is true
Koolidiot said:
“Sanchez play on Thanksgiving was far better and more effective than any of Foles performances against Dallas…”
Foles was 17 of 26 for 263 yrds 2tds and 0 ints
Sanchez was 20 of 29 for 217 yrds 1td and 0 ints
“more effective”
Remember….whatever KoolIdiot says, the opposite is true.
Koolidiot says:
“Foles was very shaky in our win over Dallas. We were bailed out with a last minute interception by Boykin!”
Beiled out?????
Foles led the team to a 24-16 lead with 6 mins to go. Dallas got the ball and went 80 yards in 2 mins to make the game close. (Clearly Foles’ fault)
When Eagles got the ball they went…run for 2, run for 4, sack…and punted….again with the lead…..to be “bailed out” by Boykin.
No other team….ever…..asks the D to hold an 8 pt lead with 6 mins to go.
Remember….everything the KoolIdiot says….the opposite is true.
You must suffer from Alzheimer Disease Vinniedafoolishass!
Go back and look at the tape!
Foles turned the ball over with a fumble in the game was sacked 5 times in the game… several of the sacks due to his penchant for being indecisive with the football and holding on to the football too long…once again he kept Dallas in the game with a chance to win by missing several wide open receivers!
“Dallas got the ball and went 80 yards in 2 mins to make the game close. (Clearly Foles’ fault)”
No Foolass…Foles ‘fault’ came on the next drive…he had a chance to put the game away…what did he do? Couldn’t get a first down, slow running for the side line ..Foles took another lame sack and gave the ball right back to Dallas with momentum and a chance to win the game. So instead of getting us a few first downs….Dallas has the ball for a game winning drive!
Boykin’s interception sealed the game and bailed us out
In contrast to Foles game, we saw superior QB play by Sanchez against a better Dallas team. Sanchez played much better than Foles, he ran the read option, made good decisions, didnt turn the ball over once-0 fumbles and 0 interceptions. The results-a blowout victory our best win in the most important game of the season outside of the upcoming game on Sunday!
Its not saying much…but Sanchez is better than Foles!
Go Eagles!
Thanks vin..couldn’t say it more succinctly…he’s a dick Tracy character ..he’s mr opposite the sock puppet …I just wish he’d go to the confessional ,and for the holidays ,use us all here at G Cobb to cleanse his soul…his hatred has blinded him so…in my world ,Foles seemingly would have had to have ,gang banged the family ,including my dog…I just don’t get it.There is a guy with a healing collarbone ,however he’s not cleared to practice ..yet we must play quarter back controversy ad-nauseam..it’s such a waste of time ..he was in his 21 st game under this regime ,when injured …that’s not a clear picture of anyone IMO..he set the league on its ear ,as did his coach throwing insane numbers 27 tds and 2 int..it’s even hard to comprehend …we must be real here ,nobody ,anticipated that in 2014 ..the league made adjustments and he was in game 8 the halfway point ,when he went down …that’s irrefutable..he played behind guys ,just guys ..shady wasn’t even a glimmer of himself . Yet we want to hold Foles to a higher standard? Here’s the fact kools…he’s on a growth curve evaluation..His record was 6-2 …I don’t care how ,he got there ,I don’t care he played ,as he played his schedule,all I care is we are 9-4 and playing Dallas …To be real here Foles rarely scared me ,he usually ,managed to leave with a lead ,in 21 games he’s put up pedestrian numbers one year ,and insane ,the other …you’d be a moronic sock puppet to not one more than 13 games his first season and 8 his second..I really think ,in my own opinion ,he was hurt badly in the Washington game ,where he got cheap shotted ..his team rallied around him ,and respected him ..but when the O line was leaking oil he got the snot pounded out of him..he’s being evaluated with that matrix,wether you want to think its irrelevant ,because ,I’ve heard you say ,he wasn’t sacked …look at hurries..look at hits he’d take …look at the timing and how it’s effected …to say let’s cut him ,shows mr opposite sock puppet ,exactly what we believe …just the opposite ..the matter at hand is Dallas ..I hate them with all my guts and sanchez scares me..I’m telling you ,the league knows mark sanchez ,and Dallas feels emboldened by Seattle …the question they fail to comprehend is ,they’re not Seattle …but if mark should assist them in crucial situations with a turnover ,all he’ll will break loose …that’s how close to the edge your boy is …I hope he thrives ,because he’s next man standing …I’m concerned ..I’m anxious ,and hopeful ..all rolled together in one..I do believe in my defense ..Seattle was dealing ..we were all over Russell Wilson all day with our front 7..he was houdinis …tip my hat to the guy ..but the tin man in a back brave ..he’s in the cross hairs …I think this eagle team is tougher ..the cowgirls were jawing on the sidelines ,during thanksgiving …that same combustible pressure will now be in our house …just light the pilot light ,run and pound em and beat romo down we….shit on Jerry’s thanksgiving ,now we intend to get him under the mistletoe and punch him in his re stretched face…GO BIRDS
Your a whining idiot! Shut da hell up deserteagle Stop sniffling and crying! Foles didn’t scare you huh,,,despite leading the league in turnovers and missing open wide receivers! So Sanchez’s turnovers scare you but Foles was a steady QB…
You fools are ridiculous.
The facts are simple…both Foles and Sanchez sucks
Foles simply sucks more than Sanchez…if both of them are healthy-we clearly have a better chance to win with Sanchez than Foles!
Its obvious that we dont have a franchise QB on the team.
Now Sanchez deserves the same shot that Foles got when Vick got hurt. Lets see if he can get us to the playoffs and get us a win in the playoffs…if he does that he surpasses what Foles did last year and as a result he would deserve a shot at the job-unless of course, Chip Kelly brings someone else in who is better.
Sanchez has led us to wins over Houston, Carolina, Dallas, and Tennessee the games he lost against two of the best QB’s in the league in Aaron Rodgers and Russell Wilson. I have more trust for him in the pressure situation…a QB that has won some playoff games than I do with “Nervous Nick” Foles .
If we get the win against the Cowboys…its Sanchez’s job for the rest of the year…no ifs, and’s or buts about it…Its Sanchez’s job…he would have earned it with a 5-2 record…Foles is the backup for this year and the playoffs.
Simple as that…
Go Eagles!
Remember…..whatever Koolidiot Says, the opposite is true!!
Koolidiot says: “Now Sanchez deserves the same shot that Foles got when Vick got hurt.”
When Vick was hurt, team was 1 and 4.
Team went 8-2 under Foles playing historically good. Team record improved dramatically. QB play improved dramatically.
When Foles was hurt, team was 6-2.
Team has gone 3-2 under Sanchez. Sanchez is playing like….Sanchez. Interception, fumble and sack rates are up. Team win % has dropped. QB play has not improved.
They did get the same chance. Results not the same.
Please save your vitriol when starting QB returns next week. Sanchez did a nice job while he was in.
Hopefully Kelly will continue to do what he’s done the last 3 weeks, namely keeping the ball out of Sanchez’s hands. Limiting the team’s exposure to the full destructive power of the Sanchez. A nice 20-25 throws to keep the possibility of him going “full Sanchize” off the table.

The team is 4-2 under Sanchez, against Houston he came in the game when it was 7-7…put that game under Sanchez
Our Offense has clearly improved. Pass percentages of Sanchez is over 60% while Foles was under 60%. The Offense has scored more points under Sanchez in the same amount of games than Foles.
Sanchez numbers are better than Foles
The running game is always key and will remain the key as Sanchez takes us into the playoffs with Foles firmly on the bench!
Vinniedafoolass its clear and simple
Sanchez is better than Foles and he will lead us into the playoffs
Can anyone tell me if the Eagles mostly play zone or man on defense?
Secondary play mostly Man on Man Coverage..
The LB’s are more of a mixture of Zone/Man depending on opponent,
Down & Distance and Game Situation..
PMan – is correct, The Eagles play almost exclusively single high safety man to man outside.
Shit fellas duh sorry.
I meant what do the Cowboys mostly play? Don’t text and drive!
Cowboys DC Rod Marinelli is a pupil of Monte Kiffin’s Cover 2 Scheme meaning that Safety’s Play Deep 2 Cover and CB’s
Play a Soft Zone on the outside, for the most part
Which is why they are succeptible to big scrambling plays by opposing QB’s
Who scramble like a Wilson,Kapernibk,Rodgers, etc…
Word is that Foles may be cleared as early as next Monday
And could be Available for Final 2 Games of the Season if Coach Kelly
Thinks he’s ready…
Thanks Paul !
Money Mayweather has just called Manny Pacquiao out! No more excuses Manny…no more the needles make you weak before a fight so you cant drug test, no more HBO has to be involved, no more Bob Arum bullshit, no more Mayweather has to give you half of the money…take the fight!
Only guy that made excuses was Floyd. Boxing is whack
First the Manny said he couldn’t take the drug tests because drawing blood before the fight would make him weak…then the 40 million that he was offered was not good enough cause he wanted 50-50…now after Manny has lost two fights and was knocked out in one….Money has put a clear offer on the table with a date…stop the BS Manny, drop Bob Arum and make the fight
who cares Floyd is 37 years old and Manny is 35 years old. The moment has past. The invitation is 5 years too late by Floyd.
Its Manny who passed up the invitation….he’s juicing and who cares how old they are…if they fought the ppv numbers would be massive…so a lot of people care and want to see the fight
“If the Eagles do indeed follow this path, win their division with a very respectable 12 wins, host and win a playoff game, does that equate to a successful year two under head coach Chip Kelly?”
Cmon pal. Um yea. Wtf u expect 19-0???
Back to Eagles Game..
Should be a Great Game…
Do you ever notice that under Coach Kelly that the Eagles Running Game is effective against 4-3 Schemes ..
This Year versus 4-3 Scheme Teams like the Giants,Panthers,Cowboys
They have run the ball well…
Watch the 1st couple of Drives, if Shady/Sproles are able to get to the edges clean, it could be a big day for the RB’s
The Cowboys OLB’s are no match for Eagles OT’s Peters & Lane Johnson
Getting to the edge in the run game will determine the Eagles success on Offense for this will allow Sanchez to hit this intermediate routs across the middle and seam routes to the TE’s…
Watch for this early on …
Johnny runaround Manziel is not an nfl caliber qb
Koolidiot….right all along! How could we all have missed it??
Johnny Manziel ripping it up for Cleveland today.
Sooo unfortunate he’s not on the Eagles with Taj Boyd as his backup. All Eagles have to do is sign him away from his French Fry station at Wendy’s.
Koolbreeze KNOWS quarterbacks!!
Vick, Geno, EJ, RG, Newton, Manziel, Boyd and now Sanchez!!
A murderer’s row of Super Bowl stars!!!
How did the rest of us miss this?
Koolidiot. He knows quarterbacks!
LMAO….A murderer ‘s row of SB stars!!!
Koolidiot. He knows quarterbacks!
Jesus kool your boy manziel 3 for 8 2 picks wow and of course tahj boyd not in nfl dude u dont shit about football
Koolbreeze, all of that rambling I did about Manziel has materialized in his play…but you say I have no analysis….LOL…No….you have NO CLUE!!!
How’s his play working out for you? Yes Chip’s, I mean Kools type of QB along with Tahj Boyd.
1st half stats for johnny streetball. 4-9 for 22 yards. 44% completion..2.44 Avg, long 19 yards. that means his other 3 passes averaged 1.33 yards per pass. He has 2 interceptions, would have been 3 if the DE did not jump off sides negating LB Rey Maualuga’s interception, and a pass batted back in his face by Maualuga. Manziel’s arm is not strong enough to get away with what he did in college as both of his interceptions were floaters. Once again, it’s not just arm strength, it’s foot work. He is inaccurate like I said, his mechanics are not good. DE Carlos Dunlap caught Manziel from behind on a play he tried to run for 2 yards to get a first down, he was unsuccessful. You heard what Marvin Lewis thinks of him. Perhaps he will get it together in the second half, let’s see if Johnny has…what did you say? Oh yes, if Johnny has the “it” factor!!!
More like the shit factor ehl
zilents , shit is correct, I am not even a Manziel hater, I enjoyed watching him play at Texas A&M, I just know that his skills, ability, attitude, and physical limitation is going to limit his NFL success, where as Kool, who thinks he knows good QB’s don’t know shit about QB’s. Brandon Thompson just sacked Manziel with one hand like a rag doll. Kool is somewhere in the corner crying. Great 1st round selection there for you koolbreeze…you’re fucking fired!!!
Lol u have shit all over kool today i dont know why he even coms back
Damn beckum is fierce
Ya dolphins pman getting spanked great sb pick
Man if GB loses that Seattle loss will sting even more.
I know but it is what it is
The EJ Manuel led Bills just beat the pack….
Lol u mean orton
I do? Lol…
EJ is a ‘chip kind of qb’ … Similar to Manziel, Boyd and griffin… All of whom lost today! Boyd lost to the HaHa boys, a loaded flag football team from Florida
I disagree HAC,
Though EJ Manuel is athletic and can move around,
He’s more of a Pocket Passer similar to a
Jason Campbell/Tedy Bridgewater and even
A Jameison Winston Type… Manuel does not look
To scramble unless Play & Pocket have broken down..
His issue is not reading Defensive Coverages quick enough
At the NFL level to get the ball out and has a tendancy to throw
On back foot while bailing on a play…
With good Ciachingcand hard work, he could possibly make it,
But word is he’s not the fiery type that commands a huddle well
And exudes confidence.
EJ Manuel does have size and a nice arm..
Hope the kid can bring up the level of the mental part of the game,
Time will tell…
Paul… Are u heavily into the scotch? I’m poking fun of all the idiots on here who want to draft this qb and that qb because THEY say they are chip kind of guys… EJ was linked by goofy posters as a chip kind of qb
Got it HAC, just wanted to give my opinion
Of his style of play for whatever it’s worth..
By the way, I’m just a Beer Drinker and haven’t
Drank Hard-Liquor in Years.. I was a Bourbon Drinker
Jim Beam & 7-Up or straight Wild Turkey 101 back in the day..
Never cared much for “Clear Liquor’s” much
In case Jakedog wants to add to my Biography… Ha
Hey Kool, Foles has taken dumps with more promise than Manziel showed today. Thank God they passed on him in the draft, what an immature clown.
See Tahj Boyd Jr….I mean Koolbreeze, you are the joke of GCOBB and everyone on this site knows it, the QB’s you wanted all stink. You have no idea what you are talking about when it comes to good QB play. Boyd, Manziel, Manuel, Geno Smith. You even co-signed on Brandon Bridge who I spoke of a month of go, simply by me saying he was big, athletic with a strong arm, but I offered no other info on him as far as his weaknesses are concerned. You don’t even know if the kid actually exist…LMAO at you all day every day.
Everyone hates kool love it
Johnny streetball…10-18, 80 yards, 2 interceptions, 1 ball batted, sacked multiple times. Rushing yards, 5-13- 2.6 yards per rush. Yes, he has it. 20 yards per quarter passing. He has “it”!!! right kool….lmao at you….lol.
Dam these seattle refs throw that flag like it aint nobody buisness
Lets go niners beat dem hawks
Where are the Kap fans? My god he is brutal
They are on the Seattle Seahawk board talking about Russell Wilson.
Malcolm Jenkins and Dez Bryant got into a face to face trash talk convo on the field! It’s game time.
GO EAGLES!!!
Sanchez… 16-28, 237, 1 TD and zero int
McCoy 137, 1 TD
Sproles, 43 rushing, 75 receiving and 2 TD ….
Please god, I don’t ask for much!
Oh and romo gimpy and ineffective
Huff…
Get this cuntil huff off this team !!!! This guy is fucking trash! How many times he gonna fuck us before you bench his ass at minimum
Fix is in
