2nd Half – ARZ 17 , PHI 10

Posted: December 20th, 2015 | Author: | Filed under: Philadelphia Eagles | 402 Comments »

Who wants to play CB?

Eric Rowe is out with a concussion. Byron Maxwell is out with a shoulder injury. Your CBs are Jaylen Watkins and EJ Biggers. Not exactly ideal against the Cardinals elite passing attack.

Hopefully Maxwell will return after halftime. He was getting X-rays.

The Eagles offense has looked good. You can argue Chip Kelly should have gone for a FG with the ball inside the 10-yard line, but he went for the 1st down and Ryan Mathews got stuffed.

The good news is that the Eagles get the ball after halftime and will have a chance to go tie the game or cut into the lead.

This is still a winnable game.

    We need a special teams tide turner and we’re right there.

  2. 2 Tumtum said at 10:08 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We need to take away the football. He is long balling it pretty disrespectfully.

  3. 3 A_T_G said at 10:10 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    One of our starting corners was just signed last week. I am amazed he isn’t connecting.

  4. 4 RobNE said at 10:14 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We need some damn pressure

  5. 5 EFD said at 10:08 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Chip should have taken the 3 points or gotten creative with the playcall. And taking the timeout with 50 seconds remaining was stupid.

  6. 6 anon said at 10:10 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    he gets creative and we don[t get it its keep it simple stupid

  7. 7 TypicalDouche said at 10:11 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I don’t really have a problem with him going for it and at the same time I think murray is terrible but in that particular situation they should have ran murray out of the single back with qb under center, that’s his specialty.

  8. 8 RobNE said at 10:09 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    If you call dibs on your favorite ice tank you are a dick. Reminds of Dragon Bruce lee story. Hey Bruce we use these machines every day at this time. Didn’t work out well for that guy.

  9. 9 scratcherk said at 10:10 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    is this in reference to the cam commercial?

  10. 10 RobNE said at 10:14 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yes

  11. 11 JoeBlow said at 10:10 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Halftime feels like it gets quicker by the week

  12. 12 Tdoteaglefan said at 10:12 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    David johnson looks like a roided up DL Hughley

  13. 13 shah8 said at 10:12 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Ertz’ hands…

  14. 14 scratcherk said at 10:12 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    drops really suck

  15. 15 shah8 said at 10:13 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    guess the game will get away from us now…

  16. 16 GENETiC-FREAK said at 10:13 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Ryan Matthews was open mayne!

  17. 17 A_T_G said at 10:15 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yeah, yeah, but what about Murray? Was he pacing on the sideline? Brooding? And how many snaps was he in? And where did he play last year?

  18. 18 ConcussedFB said at 10:16 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    In for 2 snaps, no carries.

  19. 19 Tumtum said at 10:13 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    3 drops ertz

  20. 20 Checkdown Charlie said at 10:13 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I’m glad we have a good punter.

  21. 21 JoeBlow said at 10:14 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Donnie Jones is the real MVP

  22. 22 scratcherk said at 10:14 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    he has a lot of practice

  23. 23 teltschikfakeout88 said at 10:15 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Maxwell…threw his shoulder out with that mean strip move he calls a tackle…

  24. 24 JoeBlow said at 10:15 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    i’d like to see a Brandon Graham strip sack

  25. 25 Tumtum said at 10:15 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Feel like this drive sort of will be a microcosm of the game. We get a turnover…great. They score: uh oh.

  26. 26 Mitchell said at 10:16 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Im sick of seeing the defense honestly.

  27. 27 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:16 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    What defense? Did you see defense?

  28. 28 A_T_G said at 10:16 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Would you want him back in there if you were a Cards fan?

  29. 29 Corry said at 10:16 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The defense forgot to come out after the half.

  30. 30 Donald Kalinowski said at 10:17 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I saw that from a mile away when Biggers gave up that big cushion

  31. 31 MattE said at 10:17 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Biggers isn’t playing terribly….

  32. 32 JoeBlow said at 10:17 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    At least Biggers tackled at the legs

  33. 33 Corry said at 10:18 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Soft.

  34. 34 Donald Kalinowski said at 10:18 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    WTF this guy was supposed to be questionable!

  35. 35 shah8 said at 10:18 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    yeah, I’m watching one more offensive production. This defense looks cooked.

  36. 36 Mitchell said at 10:18 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Good thing this game doesn’t matter in regards to playoffs.

  37. 37 kajomo said at 10:18 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I hate Byron Maxwell like I use to hate Casey Matthews

  38. 38 scratcherk said at 10:18 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    nnamdi is a more accurate comparison

  39. 39 John Galt said at 10:19 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    He is out though. Hate Watkins for now

  40. 40 MattE said at 10:20 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I didn’t really hate Mathews…. Just so mad at the disproportioned gene pool in comparison to Clay.

  41. 41 kajomo said at 10:22 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Oh I hated him. The idea that we drafted him in the 4th and just handed him the job. He hated him so much

  42. 42 Tumtum said at 10:18 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Welllllll looking like its gonna be a tough game.

  43. 43 Kohlhaas said at 10:18 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    man this run D is complete garbage.

  44. 44 JoeBlow said at 10:19 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Really wish Chip drafted a RB…preferably David Johnson

  45. 45 A_T_G said at 10:19 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We should try Kiko at RB. He seems to have a knack for running to daylight.

  46. 46 anon said at 10:19 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    kiko might be overpaid

  47. 47 scratcherk said at 10:19 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    ill give you a deuce..

  48. 48 daveH said at 10:20 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Just so T Law knows … marketing brilliance by Miss Universe Host Steve Harvey … he read the card wrong and gave Miss Univrrse to miss columbia BY MISTAKE..
    To his credit he took the responsibility and corrected the decision in front of the world
    . Poor both girls but it will now make more papers thsn normal ..

  49. 49 Tumtum said at 10:21 PM on December 20th, 2015:

  51. 51 scratcherk said at 10:20 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    CHALLENGE THAT U FUCKING IDIOT

  52. 52 Mitchell said at 10:20 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    This is the one to challenge.

  53. 53 A_T_G said at 10:20 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yep.

  54. 54 kajomo said at 10:20 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I worry his knee hit first

  55. 55 scratcherk said at 10:21 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    i think so, but still worth a challenge

  56. 56 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:21 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Watkins had great coverage. If that’s a catch, it was just a great catch.

  57. 57 A_T_G said at 10:21 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yep

  58. 58 MattE said at 10:21 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    None of our receivers make that catch unfortunately

  59. 59 Tumtum said at 10:22 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Watkins looking like he can cover man.. Catch or naw.

  60. 60 Insomniac said at 10:27 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Idk why they let him go in the first place. Denzel Rice who?

  61. 61 Tumtum said at 10:23 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Wrap it up folks!

  62. 62 Mitchell said at 10:23 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I wish our WR could make a great catch:(

  63. 63 Tumtum said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I just wish they could catch the ones that hit em in both hands.

  64. 64 Corry said at 10:23 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    This game is about to get out of hand.

  65. 65 John Galt said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Manly Kiko

  66. 66 Checkdown Charlie said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    2 hand touch?

  67. 67 Mitchell said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I hate everything.

  68. 68 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I miss Jim Johnson defenses. Nobody ran the ball in from the 1 yard line on those defenses.

  69. 69 ChoTime said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Was that on Kiko again?

  70. 70 Mitchell said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    You mean Liability. Yeh

  71. 71 Tumtum said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    He made sure to get out of the way for sure.

  72. 72 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:25 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    He accidentally got in the way of the runner at first, but then decisively backed away. Best reactions all night.

  73. 73 scratcherk said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    i miss hicks

  74. 74 JoeBlow said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Kiko is embarrassing

  75. 75 TXEaglesFan said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Put Kiko on ir already

  76. 76 TypicalDouche said at 10:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Casey Mathews –> Kiko Alonso

  77. 77 John Galt said at 10:25 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Racist

  78. 78 GENETiC-FREAK said at 10:25 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Did Kiko let go??

  79. 79 TXEaglesFan said at 10:25 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I’d rather Marcus smith 3 at this point

  80. 80 Tumtum said at 10:25 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Demarco Murray ILB?

  81. 81 ConcussedFB said at 10:27 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Would be better than Smith. Bet on it.

  82. 82 scratcherk said at 10:25 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    OK so if we win next week, and lose to NYG, if WAS loses to DAL, are we in?

  83. 83 John Galt said at 10:25 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yes

  84. 84 Tumtum said at 10:26 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Both those teams looked good today. Scurry.

  85. 85 Mitchell said at 10:27 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Huff with some good returns.

  86. 86 Tumtum said at 10:27 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Oh good more Demarco talk.

  87. 87 Mitchell said at 10:27 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Seriously. We dont give a shit.

  88. 88 A_T_G said at 10:27 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Now with a graphic!

  89. 89 SteveH said at 10:28 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    My girlfriend informs me that Jaylen Watkins should have made it harder for Michael Floyd to make that catch. We’re still working on the nuances of the game.

  90. 90 Tumtum said at 10:28 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Can we give him a sword?

  91. 91 SteveH said at 10:29 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    She would probably agree.

  92. 92 daveH said at 10:32 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Awesone

  93. 93 808 Eagle said at 10:28 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Riley came up short on that one. Bradford shouldn’t have thrown that

  94. 94 John Galt said at 10:29 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We r looking good now baby

  95. 95 scratcherk said at 10:29 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    etting uglyg

  96. 96 John Galt said at 10:29 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Surprisingly well done

  97. 97 Mitchell said at 10:29 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    HUFF!!!! GIVE HIM MORE TOUCHES!!!

  98. 98 anon said at 10:29 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    think this game is over. i might turn it off honestly. watch homeland

  100. 100 anon said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    yeah nbc feed no bueno i guess

  101. 101 Tumtum said at 10:29 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Every time I am about to check out they come do just enough to keep me here.

  102. 102 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:30 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We need to set up a screen to Sproles or Huff.

  103. 103 808 Eagle said at 10:30 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    It was like the cards had the ball first in the second half

  104. 104 A_T_G said at 10:30 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    They are a house of cards, all it will take is a couple of huffs.

  105. 105 scratcherk said at 10:30 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    LOL MURRAY

  106. 106 Mitchell said at 10:30 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    There have been some great anticipation throws this game which make me think he deserve more time next year.

  107. 107 808 Eagle said at 10:30 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Demarco sighting.

  108. 108 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Good job, Cooper. Get that 1st down.

  109. 109 Tumtum said at 10:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Take a shot.

  110. 110 A_T_G said at 10:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I need to see what Sproles looks like on the sideline.

  111. 111 scratcherk said at 10:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    that was a fumble

  112. 112 John Galt said at 10:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Nice. Gotta love murray

  113. 113 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    And that’s why he doesn’t play much any more.

  114. 114 Mitchell said at 10:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Murray 1 rush with 1 yard!

  115. 115 Tumtum said at 10:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Caught one!

  116. 116 MattE said at 10:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    DeMarco is the Mike Vick of RB’s he needs to see the hole actually open before going through it.

  117. 117 John Galt said at 10:32 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Doubled his total

  118. 118 ChoTime said at 10:32 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Poor Murray just can’t get anything.

  119. 119 Tumtum said at 10:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Ok TAKE A SHOT

  120. 120 Mitchell said at 10:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I see you with that attempted stiff arm!

  121. 121 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Oh, crap.

  122. 122 JoeBlow said at 10:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I like how NBC is keeping that play clock up there when we really are not going that fast

  123. 123 sonofdman said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    If they are going to do that they should at least show the clock when AZ has the ball too so there is some basis for comparison.

  124. 124 sonofdman said at 10:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    fuuuuuck

  125. 125 Kohlhaas said at 10:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    who gave that sack up?

  126. 126 ChoTime said at 10:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Peters.

  127. 127 808 Eagle said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Peters

  128. 128 John Galt said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Jp

  129. 129 A_T_G said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Let’s blame Murray.

  130. 130 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    And Billy Davis.

  131. 131 sonofdman said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Byron Maxwell’s fault.

  132. 132 JoeBlow said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Maxwell

  133. 133 scratcherk said at 10:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    SIGH

  135. 135 Tumtum said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Checking out. Enjoy.

  136. 136 Mitchell said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Screw the 2015 season. So many let downs.

  137. 137 Insomniac said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The biggest let down might be our draft position.

  138. 138 anon said at 10:35 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    if we don’t make playoffs think we’ll still have decent position

  139. 139 Ryan Rambo said at 10:35 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Maybe we can package Murray and Cooper to move up?? Wishful thinking I’m sure.

  140. 140 JoeBlow said at 10:35 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    im not sure we could move down with that package

  141. 141 John Galt said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    But…but…but they control their own destiny no matter what

  142. 142 ChoTime said at 10:35 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Well. We just have to win the last 2 games, really.

  143. 143 TypicalDouche said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Looks like Peters wiffed on that one. His hopeful move to guard can’t come fast enough.

  144. 144 JJVJack said at 10:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We suck, only one person to blame. Guess who, makes all the calls.

  145. 145 ChoTime said at 10:35 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Jimmy Kempski?

  146. 146 Checkdown Charlie said at 10:35 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Murray?

  147. 147 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:36 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The head linesman?

  148. 148 JJVJack said at 10:55 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We are getting screwed by Refs yes, but we are losing g by how much. We go for it on 4th and a half yard and lose 2 when we could of tied game.

  149. 149 kajomo said at 10:35 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Brightside is Sam looks like our longterm QB

  150. 150 anon said at 10:35 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    i don’t think we beat skins

  151. 151 John Galt said at 10:36 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Agree, they are playing well

    Luckily we get them at the Linc. Their road record isn’t very good.

  153. 153 scratcherk said at 10:36 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    kendricks misses a tackle then showboats.

  154. 154 kajomo said at 10:36 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    He completely blew up the play

  155. 155 scratcherk said at 10:36 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    well i can see how with a good draft, we could get to be decent

  156. 156 JoeBlow said at 10:37 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Long Comeback routes killing us because no pressure…..Revis isn’t covering those routes

  157. 157 Mitchell said at 10:37 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Palmers finger looks broken as shit.

  158. 158 scratcherk said at 10:37 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    INT FTW

  159. 159 Ryan Rambo said at 10:38 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    So you’re sayin there’s a chance???

  160. 160 anon said at 10:38 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    maybe we have a chance

  161. 161 Mitchell said at 10:38 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    One question. Why the fuck was Watkins cut?

  162. 162 John Galt said at 10:38 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Cuz maxwell is awesome

  163. 163 sonofdman said at 10:39 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    That was a tough roster decision between Maxwell and Watkins. Definitely no room for both on the roster.

  164. 164 ChoTime said at 10:38 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Damn, the Cards have no respect for our secondary!

  165. 165 ChoTime said at 10:40 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Don’t they know we got rid of Cary Williams and Bradley Fletcher?

  166. 166 Tumtum said at 10:38 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Oh hi. I’m back.

  167. 167 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:39 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Go away. Last 4 minutes Eagles luck changed dramatically.

  168. 168 Tumtum said at 10:40 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Oh good point. Checking out again. See you guys tomorrow.

  169. 169 John Galt said at 10:39 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    It’s almost like you never left

  170. 170 A_T_G said at 10:39 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Please throw deep.

    Also please complete it.

    For a touchdown.

    For us.

  171. 171 scratcherk said at 10:39 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    This game.

  172. 172 Mitchell said at 10:40 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I love how you have to specify the last line cause, its the Eagles.

  173. 173 JoeBlow said at 10:40 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Is Palmers injured finger on his throwing hand?

  174. 174 sonofdman said at 10:40 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yes

  175. 175 Mitchell said at 10:41 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yeh it look pretty mangled imo.

  176. 176 John Galt said at 10:41 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Just dislocated. He will be back in. Might affect him a little tho

  177. 177 JoeBlow said at 10:42 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    i had my pinky bent 90 degrees sliding into second base about 3 months ago….still aint right

  178. 178 A_T_G said at 10:42 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yep. Is there anything they are playing for? Sit him down.

  179. 179 ChoTime said at 10:41 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The Eagles: We’re not that good, but we might mess up your quarterback and your season!

    cursed.

  188. 188 scratcherk said at 10:43 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    well you cant win a game like this.

  189. 189 ChoTime said at 10:43 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Just not our year, boys.

  190. 190 Mitchell said at 10:43 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Wtf. Come on. YOU CANT WIN IF YOU FUMBLE THE DAMN BALL

  191. 191 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:43 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    No excuse for that.

  192. 192 FairOaks said at 10:43 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We need to win the turnover battle to win this game… going the wrong direction.

  193. 193 scratcherk said at 10:44 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    you’re still here arent you tumtum?

  194. 194 John Galt said at 10:45 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We are horrible at covering the late release guy

  195. 195 scratcherk said at 10:45 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    generous spot

  196. 196 scratcherk said at 10:46 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    or not

  197. 197 Mitchell said at 10:46 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Great spot refs.

  198. 198 A_T_G said at 10:46 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    This game will be good for motivation for a six game win streak.

    For us.

  199. 199 scratcherk said at 10:47 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    This season.

  200. 200 ConcussedFB said at 10:46 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    No way did he pick that first down up.

  201. 201 Mitchell said at 10:47 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Watkins didmt even grab him….

  202. 202 John Galt said at 10:47 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Lol

  203. 203 Kohlhaas said at 10:47 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    gotta be kidding me. This team sucks.

  204. 204 Checkdown Charlie said at 10:47 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Pitiful

  205. 205 Insomniac said at 10:47 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    That phantom holding call

  206. 206 JoeBlow said at 10:47 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    some of the most embarrassing tackling ive ever seen

  207. 207 Insomniac said at 10:48 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    2011?

  208. 208 JoeBlow said at 10:48 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    eh……this is giving it a run

  209. 209 A_T_G said at 10:48 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    There was tackling?

  210. 210 ChoTime said at 10:50 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Terrible tackling, turning it over in dumb ways two times in a row, drops, probably a bad playcall on the 4th down…

  211. 211 kajomo said at 10:48 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We havent covered anyone all night. Why not blitz occasionally to try and get pressure

  212. 212 xeynon said at 10:48 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    This game really ought to put to rest the idea that this team can make some kind of Giants-esque miracle run if they only make the playoffs. They don’t play consistently well and the only chance they have of beating good teams is getting an unusual confluence of fluke ST and defensive plays as happened in the Pats game. If they sneak in 8-8, they will likely be embarrassed against a good opponent.

    I want them to finish 6-10. Maximize draft position.

  213. 213 daveH said at 11:01 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Hope ther is some obvious talent that gm cant miss

  214. 214 Kohlhaas said at 10:48 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    This defense has talent. The problem has got to be with the coaching.

  215. 215 ChoTime said at 10:49 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    It’s tough to go against a great passing attack when half your secondary goes down, too.

  216. 216 A_T_G said at 10:49 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Okay, that Tom Pratt story is pretty cool.

  217. 217 JoeBlow said at 10:51 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    A lot of age and experience on that coaching staff…Tom Moore was Peyton’s O-coordinator in Indy…guy has been coaching in NFL since 1977

  218. 218 TXEaglesFan said at 10:53 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Nbc like we flexed this shit?!

  219. 219 JoeBlow said at 10:53 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    hey it was close for a half…

  220. 220 TXEaglesFan said at 10:54 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yeah I guess the kidnergardners appreciated it

  221. 221 Mitchell said at 10:53 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The turnovers man. Just killing them every year.

  222. 222 808 Eagle said at 10:53 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Demarco is laughing inside

  223. 223 TXEaglesFan said at 10:57 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yep him and howie, probably bff’s now

  224. 224 JJVJack said at 10:53 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I do not want to win last two games, We would get humiliated in Playoffs and worse draft pick. With Chip calling the shots the pick don’t mean crap anyways. I do believe it could be largest playoff lose at home in history of NFL.

  225. 225 Mitchell said at 10:54 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Did Chip draft poorly last year? No. No he didnt.

  226. 226 808 Eagle said at 10:57 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Average draft. First round grade – d. 2nd round – c. Jordan hicks – a.

  227. 227 Mitchell said at 11:08 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Turned a 4th into a third and got Shepherd in the 5th.

  228. 228 JJVJack said at 1:25 AM on December 21st, 2015:

    Yes, yes he did. How many did not make team, how many on injured reserve or better yet how many have had an impact. One and he’s on IR and He had an injury history that’s why He dropped.

  229. 229 Mitchell said at 9:38 AM on December 21st, 2015:

    Oboy. So because someone has a “injury history” but play great and then get a freak injury they are a bad pick? Ok. Got it. Again Shepherd tore his ACL another freak injury. Do you expect ALL the picks to make the team? Even the 7th rounders who almost never turn into anything? Come on. Agholor has been a disappointment but I have watched his college tape and he will be a good player kust like many other have said. Last year was a good draft.

  230. 230 JJVJack said at 10:12 PM on December 26th, 2015:

    kind of like dropping a touchdown

  231. 231 A_T_G said at 10:55 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Why do you care where we pick if you are sure they will be wasted?

  232. 232 Insomniac said at 10:56 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    To be fair, we are 100% better at drafting in the top 10 in the first round compared to the top 25 picks.

  233. 233 JJVJack said at 1:31 AM on December 21st, 2015:

    Is that not what I said worse Draft pick but don’t matter. I do not want to get embarrassed at home but the record at home the last 3 years make it hard to get much more embarrassed.

  234. 234 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:54 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Shame. Sam actually played well tonight up until that stupid throw.

  235. 235 FairOaks said at 10:55 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Either on him or the receiver. Classic missed communication play there.

  236. 236 RC5000 said at 10:55 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Mathews ran wrong route I bet.

  237. 237 808 Eagle said at 10:55 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Sam played alright. That’s what you get with Sam. Nothing great nothing too bad. That stuff won’t win big games.

  238. 238 ChoTime said at 10:58 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    It would be nice if he could put the team on his shoulders, but only a few QBs in the L can really do that, and not consistently.

  239. 239 RC5000 said at 10:59 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    He’s played very well 4 of last 5 games with young receivers , average OL (Peters even getting beat).

  240. 240 Mitchell said at 10:55 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Still need to work on that qb-wr relationship that takes more than 9 months.

  241. 241 Eagles_Fan_in_San_Fran said at 10:54 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Bradford = Coach-Killer

  242. 242 ChoTime said at 10:54 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I’m glad I’m leaving town tomorrow (I live in Arizona).

  243. 243 John Galt said at 10:56 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The question is do we give demarco a bunch of garbage time carries? Then chip can say how he got more carries than anyone during the press conference is this week

  244. 244 Dragon_Eagle said at 10:56 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Good call.

  245. 245 Mitchell said at 10:56 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Lots of drops again this game. The drops continue to styme the offense. Thay and turnovers.

  246. 246 John Galt said at 10:57 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    And pick sixes and bad defense

  247. 247 FairOaks said at 10:57 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We’d been doing a bit better on the turnover front lately but that was a horrid sequence. How to lose a game in three easy steps — fumble fumble pick six.

  248. 248 Insomniac said at 10:57 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Drops are happening to everyone. I think I saw a tweet where Brady/Carr/Rodgers were the leading QBs with dropped passes.

  249. 249 Mitchell said at 11:00 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Why is it so bad when Matthews drops it then?

  250. 250 Insomniac said at 11:02 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Season is lost. I don’t even care anymore, he is what he is and that’s a WR that’s not as good as people think he is.

  251. 251 Mitchell said at 11:03 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Playing well tonight.

  252. 252 BobSmith77 said at 10:57 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Admiral billybar: we can’t repel firepower of this magnitude.

  253. 253 808 Eagle said at 10:59 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Matthews should not be celebrating

  254. 254 ChoTime said at 10:59 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Vick-like arm flick there, nice.

  255. 255 JoeBlow said at 11:00 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    guy in his face too

  256. 256 FairOaks said at 11:00 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Took a big hit. Gets time to recover at least.

  257. 257 BobSmith77 said at 11:00 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Things fell apart with the CB injuries but yet again this is a bottom tier defense despite all of the resources invested in it that forces this offense to score 28-30 pts at the end of the year to win. That just is a recipe for failure.

  258. 258 ChoTime said at 11:02 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Defense still ranked #11 according to DVOA (before this game). So top third or top of mid-third-ish.

  259. 259 BobSmith77 said at 11:03 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    In almost every other start they are bottom 10 except forcing turnovers and this defense is scuffling at the end if the year yet again

  260. 260 ChoTime said at 11:05 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The pace really throws off most stats.

  261. 261 TXEaglesFan said at 11:00 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Onside kick?

  262. 262 Dragon_Eagle said at 11:00 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    3 more like that and we win.

  263. 263 TXEaglesFan said at 11:01 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    So you’re saying there’s a chance?!

  264. 264 A_T_G said at 11:01 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Even with Mathews that open, Sam nearly didnt have time to get him the ball.

  265. 265 Mitchell said at 11:01 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    That would have been awesome if there wasn’t a pick six the drive before or that garbage long run in the first half.

  266. 266 BobSmith77 said at 11:02 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Bradford didn’t play poorly but he isn’t s difference maker and the thought of signing him to a big deal the next 3-4 years strikes me as a move that sinks the franchise for the rest of the decade.

  267. 267 meteorologist said at 11:03 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    If you think he’s not a difference maker you must not have seen when Sanchez was in this year…

  268. 268 BobSmith77 said at 11:05 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Just because Sanchez was terrible doesn’t change what Bradford is.

  269. 269 meteorologist said at 11:16 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    But it seems he elevates the play of the team to a halfway decent level

  270. 270 ChoTime said at 11:03 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    He’s playing just good enough for it to be a IMO hard decision, whether to sign him for big money (because it won’t be small) or just say F it and go rook.

  271. 271 anon said at 11:05 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    def of a coach killer. but bradford needs help, line, recieves, defense coaching — we’re not in the same league as good teams right now.

  272. 272 RC5000 said at 11:12 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Think it’s a fairly easy decision. Draft is after FA and all of the rookie QBs need time to be groomed.

  273. 273 ChoTime said at 11:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I just don’t know… if it’s worth trying to build on this team.

  274. 274 Dragon_Eagle said at 11:04 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    3 years is fine. It’ll take us that long to find, draft/acquire, and train up another QB we hope is a franchise anyway. Gotta pay for QB play and hope he does well enough to help the receivers develop.

  275. 275 FairOaks said at 11:06 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Thing is he’s getting better. He’s getting close to being a real solid QB, if he can keep up this level. Is Carson Palmer a difference maker? I don’t see that quality as being out of the question at this point. It would be one thing if he had plateaued at a particular level of performance but I haven’t seen it yet.

  276. 276 Insomniac said at 11:09 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Palmer has been a good QB though. Bradford hasn’t.

  277. 277 FairOaks said at 11:15 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Nope. But he’s looking better and he’s been pretty consistent over 5 games now.

  278. 278 JoeBlow said at 11:16 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Palmer also had a lot more talent on those Bengal teams than Sam did on the Rams……you saw Palmer on the Raiders, he was awful

  279. 279 Insomniac said at 11:28 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Palmer wasn’t that bad in his 2nd year there. Statistically that was better than all of Sam’s years with the Rams.

  280. 280 FairOaks said at 11:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    2nd year…. hm….. 😉

  281. 281 RC5000 said at 11:07 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    What QB do you like we can get instead?

  282. 282 Insomniac said at 11:09 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    We didn’t take a QB to groom so that was part of the problem. You really don’t want to commit to a QB if they really don’t show significant progress every year (look at Tannehill, Kaepernick, and Cutler) since that’ll put you in a shitty situation.

    This isn’t really the year to draft a QB so that hurts even more.

  283. 283 BobSmith77 said at 11:11 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Pretty much and with where Kelly is at he has to resign him too.

  284. 284 Kohlhaas said at 11:03 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    C’mon D. We need a turnover.

  285. 285 Mitchell said at 11:04 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I just want to eat away my depression.

  286. 286 A_T_G said at 11:06 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yeah, guess he’s not that young.

  344. 344 ChoTime said at 11:22 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The Redbirds should get another TD and go for the 2-pointer so we can have another 45-pointer on our resume.

  345. 345 Mitchell said at 11:22 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    This game sucked

  346. 346 ChoTime said at 11:24 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The first half felt like we were hanging on by our fingertips. Then we decided to help them out with those ridiculous turnovers. And then the D started to get tired/suck.

  347. 347 BobSmith77 said at 11:22 PM on December 20th, 2015:

  354. 354 ChoTime said at 11:29 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I don’t know, I read an ESPN mag article and it left me thinking of him as a longshot to stick in the league.

  355. 355 RC5000 said at 11:36 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I saw a documentary or him interviewed a long time ago and I remember he smoked from a really young age at home. He easily could have gone bad again and not made it.

  356. 356 Insomniac said at 11:30 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I heard Patrick Peterson took him under his wing and now he’s clean enough to not get media attention.

  357. 357 A_T_G said at 11:26 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    That looks bad, but I guess not.

  358. 358 TXEaglesFan said at 11:27 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I’ve seen guys walk off acl tears. That looked bad

  359. 359 BobSmith77 said at 11:28 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Thought this would be a 13-14 pt as win because the defense would stink tonight but I expected a bit more out of the offense tonight

    Boo birds are right sadly and this team simply isn’t good enough to do anything meaningful in the playoffs.

  360. 360 dillinja said at 11:42 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    right – I’d like to make the playoffs because I will always like to see the Eagles do well, but this team isn’t very good and getting a draft pick 7 or 8 places higher is a good consolation prize for a team with many holes to fill.

  361. 361 FairOaks said at 11:49 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The turnovers were the killer. And not getting the first down before the half. Offense was… decent but not great, which they have been lately.

    Playoff experience would still be good for a lot of these guys.

  362. 362 A_T_G said at 11:31 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Big picture, this loss doesn’t mean much.

    First, we have two games against sub-.500 teams to get in the playoffs. That isn’t a bad way to end a season.

    Second, in the first half we were able to play with them. The turnovers killed us, but there is hope.

  363. 363 DJH said at 11:35 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I agree with you. However, if we lose one or both of the next two games, the offseason will be a lonnnnnnggggggg one.

  364. 364 BobSmith77 said at 11:32 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    That doesn’t surprise me. The crowd at the Linc SUCKS compared to the vet. Don’t have nearly the noise or rancorous crowd. As soon as things go bad, this crowd is as quiet as the crowd at the big house in Ann Arbor.

  365. 365 jpate said at 11:32 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    When three teams ring up at least 40 points on you in a seasons, some changes needs to be made. That’s not growing pains, that’s a crack in the foundation.

  366. 366 ACViking said at 11:32 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Eagles offense has scored 28 points only once this season — against the Saints.

  367. 367 Insomniac said at 11:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Saints are allowing 30.5 points per game to opponents.

  368. 368 ChoTime said at 11:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Hmm. I’m thinking we should not be favored in either of the remaining games. Overreaction?

  369. 369 Insomniac said at 11:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I don’t think we were in the first place.

  370. 370 DJH said at 11:33 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Im not trying to be negative, just an honest thought/question. When we played Cardinals in 2013, I thought we were equal, if not the better team. Two years later, Cards clearly better on both sides. Why?

  371. 371 TXEaglesFan said at 11:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Cardinals kept their best players than added more.

  372. 372 ACViking said at 11:34 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Start with O-line and QB. Then WRs. And DBs

  373. 373 TXEaglesFan said at 11:36 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Yep, they have three better WRs than our best.

  374. 374 Insomniac said at 11:37 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Coaching?

  375. 375 ChoTime said at 11:38 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Our offense went from being top 3 to bottom third.

  376. 376 The original AG said at 11:54 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Better coached team. They don’t make many mistakes.

  377. 377 JoeBlow said at 12:44 AM on December 21st, 2015:

    i think the answer is pretty simple, they are just better coached. Rarely do you see them make mistakes in communication and execution. Just watching this game tonight you can see the difference, both teams have their own style but one team clearly played their style of football better than the other. The cardinals are going to run it down your throat and/or throw it deep, they don’t care if you know it or not they just impose their will on you because if they execute up front, which their o-line has been tremendous this year, they are going to succeed. On paper i think the Eagles would have a good chance to beat this team, but they do none of the little things right. They jump offsides, they hold, fumble the ball, drop simple passes or run routes short of the first down, QB isn’t on same page as receivers. Some of it is to be expected with all the fresh faces on offense, but some things just shouldn’t happen either. Chip has also taken a major step back as a playcaller and perhaps just as a coach in general this year IMO

    As for drafts and team building between the two, Chip sort of went rebuild this year, but IMO he spent some of the FA money unwisely. I didn’t mind the guys he cut/traded being axed if the team was going to enter a long term rebuild, but i think some of the FA signings he made sent mixed signals to fans. I still think he is in the midst of rebuilding this team, but patience isn’t a virtue with this fanbase and some of the moves he has made already have people scratching their heads. Combine that with some of the coaching decisions or indecisions and you get what you see now. As for Arizona they have done pretty well i suppose in the draft since Arians took over and there was some talent already on the team, but they really built the team through FA and trades. They landed Palmer, who was going to retire like Bradford due to injuries and poor play, but went to Arizona and revitalized his career, cards gave up a 6th rounder to get him mostly because Oakland just wanted to be done with him. 3/5 of the o-line were FA they picked up in the Arians era who have now developed into a nice unit. Outside of Calais Campbell they dont have any big name on their front 7 on defense, but they all play with no quit on every play. The secondary is most likely their most talented unit with guys like Peterson and honey badger, but the key to that unit is they are also well coached and rarely screw up in execution (except for tonight on that long Matthews TD, lol)

    They are more talented than our team, but not by much. they have their QB who has been in the system 3 years now and players don’t make mistakes and neither do the coaches. Just look at Carolina, they were 7-8-1 last year…..who was their big acquisition? Ted Ginn? They have hit big on some draft picks and are just playing well as a team this year, yet people were writing them off because Kelvin Benjamin got hurt

  380. 380 Joe Minx said at 11:39 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Gutless job by this defense tonight for everyone not named Cox.

  381. 381 BobSmith77 said at 11:40 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Didingder was blunt – cardinals just ran over the eagles tonight between the tackles all night long.

  382. 382 ChoTime said at 11:42 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The sad thing is if they had hit on more of those bombs, this would have been way uglier. They demolished us with their plan B.

  383. 383 Mitchell said at 11:43 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    They have a habit of makong rookies look good.

  384. 384 dillinja said at 11:43 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Losing both CBs hurt too. But yeah, D as a whole sucked. One minor positive is it clear we play better when our 2nd and 3rd round picks from last year are in the game, which gives me reason for hope moving forward. Can’t say that about our first round pick from 2 years ago.

  385. 385 Will:↑↑↓↓←→←→BA said at 11:47 PM on December 20th, 2015:

  392. 392 EFD said at 11:43 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    The only positive I can come up with is that this was likely the last time I have to watch Larry Fitzgerald against the Eagles. I know he didn’t do much tonight but that man has just terrorized them throughout his career.

  393. 393 BobSmith77 said at 11:46 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Didingder has been atypically blunt and almost caustic tonight. Really get the sense he doesn’t think much of kelly or what he has done since he has taken total control last offseason.

  394. 394 ConcussedFB said at 11:47 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Blunt, yes. Caustic, I don’t know. The only other serious football guy there is Westbrook. The other 2 are clowns.

  395. 395 BobSmith77 said at 11:48 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Making comments about a lack of talent and how this defense got trucked. Almost assuming too from what he said that they are going to lose next week too and be home in Jan. too.

  396. 396 ConcussedFB said at 11:50 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    I hear ya. I thought he was just being a little extra honest.

  397. 397 BobSmith77 said at 11:51 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Almost assume too from what he said too is that this team will lose next week too which is very unlike him to be that negative.

  398. 398 The original AG said at 11:52 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Don’t know many teams that lose their 1st, 2nd, & 3rd string CB and still play good defense.

  400. 400 Joe Minx said at 11:54 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Really thought about going all Media Mike circa last night in here but I just don’t have the heart.

    I figured we’d lose but it’s emotionally exhausting to keep getting steamrolled like this.

  401. 401 John Galt said at 11:59 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    Kiko has sucked really bad this year. That said, I think he doesn’t trust his knee. When he was a rookie he flew around the field, he is just so tentative this year. Hopefully he’s one of those guys that takes two years to get all the way back, because I think he has a lot of talent. However, like I said, he has been horrible this year

  402. 402 The original AG said at 11:59 PM on December 20th, 2015:

    How to fix this team quickly.

    – Get a new defensive coordinator, good coaches light him up
    – Get new interior OL – we have no push up the middle of the field
    – Get a new WR coach

    I’m done with Billy D. His defenses get beat by the same routes and his run d has been figured out. Get rid of the weak link. And I don’t understand the up and down nature of our WR. Too inconsistent and they arguably have talent there. At least they were in college. Right now this is where WR come to end their careers.
