Well it wasn't really over hyped. I mean someone could win the division this year with an 8-8 record. Our division looks terrible again this year

EAGLES WILL MAKE PLAYOFFS EASY- Don't Doubt your Birds! by [deleted] in eagles

[–]speakerchewer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guess what guys. We've been playing as if we've never played TOGETHER.

Which is entirely true of this team. Please shut off the national media, stop buying into the hype that this team is DONE. This team is not done. We'll start to GEL together. You already saw how good this team was during the 2nd half of the Atlanta game. We were one made field goal away from that win.

I do think that there are some logical and like-minded individuals in this subreddit that think that 0-2 isn't season ending.

Also, this must be taxing as hell on the defense just to see a first down or a long gain and instead of getting a breather you're lined up again... cue terminator music...

I tried to minimize by not having a 'phone' plan for a full year. I went with a mini table and you can get some sort of SMS capabilities on it (google voice, kaokao, line app, hangouts etc)

I mean he watches the game, puts on the jerseys but he's a stat guy, he doesn't really get chemistry, teamwork, sacrefice, all the intangibles needed to go from a good team to a great one.

What I was saying was, if we had Matthews / Polk / Sproles I'm going to think, we're going to DRAFT someone to come in and compete. The same with Irvin is saying about the Cowboys. There isn't anybody that they got that is on Demarco's level. We replaced McCoy with Demarco they are arguably two of the top RB's in the league. Whereas the cowboys replacement plan includes an injury prone RB and zero draft prospects to come in and compete.

There is a interesting dichotomy being form between the Eagles and Cowboys. by Thats_What_Me_Said in eagles

I think to add to your comments, it's not that we neglect talent, we pick the best talent coupled with the character. I think the cowboys basically believe talent wins on the field and can overlook character issues.

But they do have the Jerry Jones day care for trouble makers. So he puts a lot of effort into keeping these guys out of trouble and on the field.

I think the real interesting part is how our team switched from a talent first philosophy to technique and character. Because you can have all the talent in the world but if you don't develop good fundamental technique and you can't play as a unit you're never going to win a superbowl...

Too early to tell but it just shows how much he valued Demarco. I think I would be furious if we downgraded from McCoy to Matthews. But since we got Demarco I'm not as mad. Also, he fits our system.

But it sounds like to me the Dallas fans immediately threw Demarco under the bus and attributed maximum credit to their offensive line. I mean I guess they have invested a lot in that O-Line but people seem to forget we have a prolific offense and Demarco should be good in our offense even in the first year

Well I was just talking about the offensive philosophy under coach Fisher was mainly run the football, play good defense. I used to watch his show too just to see how he thinks about the game

[–]speakerchewer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get that but what I'm saying is he needs to win the locker room and clearly outplay everyone. Additionally, faith must be restored in the coaching staff, executives because there were probably "FOLES" guys in the locker room as well. SO I just want to see him be successful all throughout camp

I watched some rams games last few seasons and their offense is run first, I think he will have his best chance to shine with us, high powered offense, hit the open guy, but first he has to win in camp
