Eagles offense is anemic. But what do you expect when you don't play your qb in the preseason.

first few weeks of the season are always messy
Mahomes lost to the Lions do you think he's washed?

AND IT"S GOOD

roughing the passer? i thought barnett was gone

That should wrap it.

There was a split second lag, so am not sure, but I believe that was another designed qb run.

Whatever happens this game this much is clear. This team is nowhere near a top team right now. It's not just the obvious rustiness of Hurts, Mailata etc. There are severe issues with coaching.

Should get the "Neverland Ranch" tag. And flyers get rewarded the 2010 Stanley Cup.

Oh I internalized that. But structural issues are evident.

The Eagles have a unique ability to make you feel bad about a win.

i wonder how lions fans feel? i mean they barely beat mahomes by 1 point

good win by the eagles to hold on clean it up for next week

They sure didn’t make it easy.

However, not only is it week 1, but a fair amount of those guys got next to no preseason.

Still, they gotta make hay, because this schedule gets rocky AF later. Vikes didn’t look good, but they are gonna fight tooth and nail not to go down 0-2.

I’m happy it’s a short week….Hurts seemed un sure of what he was looking at after the first series. Lucky to get out of week one with a W.

Jesus. Tyreek Hill got almost more yards than our offense.

No seriously, but some rhetorical queries.

1. What on earth is up with giving Ken (frank)ing Gainwell the ball so often? And if you are going to run so many between the tackle runs against a swarming, over-aggresive young D, why no screens? Why no swing passes with blockers? Indeed, why not have passes for your RB in the flat when you have someone like Swift as active for the game? Why no play-action?

2. Was there a single designed play for Goedert? If you are not going to design plays for him, why have 12 personnel and have Stoll embarass himself trying to block?

2. What are they going to do with the middle of the D on coverage? Evans was putrid. Dean looked hesitant & is injured again anyway. There was poor qb play from Jones and no TE in NE that could read zones and sit on them; there were gaping holes in coverage that more experienced qbs/TE will exploit.

3. What is up with the Desai defensive fronts? Is there even a base personnel? How many stunts will that line perform? RedRichard was constantly rushing from the middle. BG was lined up as tackle, then dropping back in coverage. I don't like this kinda crap on opening day.

4. What is the point in being up 5, and going for it on 4 and 3 from your own 30 or wherever that was? You want home field or nah?

Good play individually: Blankenship, Maddox, Slay (by and large), Carter (Desai -open your eyes. This guy should not just be part of the rotation), Sweat, RedRichard, Cox (by and large)

Mailata blew till the 4th. Bad audibling by Hurts. How do you not be aware of an obvious corner blitz like that? Horrendous play calling. Horrendous protection schemes.

That's it. based on my expectations, this was a bad start. The good news is, they got away with it.

A great win for them 🏆 with their abysmal history.

lol. Yeah, I’m 8.


But anyway, yeah, Blankenship is really becoming a nice player.

The lack of pass rush was disturbing. They had 3 backups on the o-line. They shoulda been wet tissue. More Carter. Now.

Every years you’re gonna win one or two you shouldn’t, and lose one or two you should. Pocket this as an ugly win that we were just plain outplayed. How about a little more generic blabber from me with “they all count the same”

there's no should have won in the first week this was also a road game against the patriots

It’s unreal that the brat coach isn’t using Michkov on the pp. I also think it’s a bad idea moving him to center. I don’t want a guy with off the charts offensive skill and creativity of Michkov being burdened with the defensive responsibilities of playing center at the NHL level.

I think the Flyers potentially have the wings for a future top line in Michkov & Gauthier. Hopefully they can find their next 1C in the 24 or 25 draft.

The Patriots suck! People say the Patriots like Tom Brady still plays there. They've been ordinary at best since he left.

Watched the tape again. Designed qb run all the way.

OK, you have superbowl aspirations. Your qb has mvp aspirations. Your backup flat out blows. You have been very conservative so far in game, esp on last possession before half, when you might as have taken a knee.

And then, with 3 odd mins to go and deep in your own half, up by 5, you call a NAKED QB RUN?

I mean, are you (frank)ing nuts?
