Their D is legit. We have to mix it up - run, run, 3rd and long won't cut it.

Jordan reed not practicing today.
Looking kinda iffy for Sunday.

Re: Filthydelphia Eagles Pre Game Thread
 

Sadly the blueprint to really hurt our D was exposed week one and never foxed IMO.... running between the tackles and the SCREEN game..... 2 things the eagles USE TO HELP THEIR rookie qb. Who we rarely beat by the way, rookie qbs, so, im not excited. I don't think we will outscheme them on EITHER side of the ball. And i think we might get whooped, or just fall short of a comeback but i dont expect the coaches AT ALL, to put us in a winning position this week. Sorry... cuz i HATE THE FUCKIN EAGLES MANNNNN - "THE DUDE"

Re: Filthydelphia Eagles Pre Game Thread
 

Luckily, their center and guards are just OK. I read that we started shifting some people around on the DL and it had some good success versus the starting lineup we had against Baltimore. I know Baker doesn't like NT, but they said he played a few snaps and was a BEAST. Ionnidis commanded some double teams too.

However, you need not worry about Cox’s status for this Sunday’s game against Washington. The Eagles’ All-Pro defensive tackle will be playing at FedEx Field. Doug Pederson said this morning that Cox’s absence from practice was to be expected, and was largely precautionary.

Cox has 11 tackles, four sacks, and one forced fumble in four games this season. He’s been nothing short of Pro Bowl-worthy so far; having him for Sunday, the Eagles’ first divisional game of the season, is big.

Pederson said McKelvin and Braman will also be ready for Sunday’s game.

----------------------------------------

How are the Eagles this healthy? They have 0 players on IR and will have 0 players from the 53 man roster missing sundays game (except ped boy lane).

How is that possible? Wow.

[B]Also, did you know our defense has not given up a 2nd half touchdown for 3 games now? I didnt know that. Thats pretty good second half adjustment by our pinata boy Barry and Fewell and co[/B]. Of course that stat coincides with our 3 game win streak coming against 2 winning teams. Which is nice. A lil win streak in the first half of a season is always a welcome guest.

Our 3rd down defense has to improve and I think they kept the Ravens to a conversion rate of 3/15 or something like that. Thats a start. Id like more of that please.[/quote]

Great point.

I also think Joe Barry is a "young" coach, he just had two seasons as D coord, back in 07-08, and we're seeing him progress already. Against the ravens I'd say he adapted way better than the first 4 weeks, well, better gameplan for sure!
With time he might become a very good coach, I already feel like this D is looking happy to play for him, more hungry than previous years!

Yeah he's a stud but he can never stay healthy

Re: Filthydelphia Eagles Pre Game Thread
 

The Eagles do have lousy WRs, that's why Doug brought back the good old Andy Reid horizontal passing game. The biggest threat we have to worry about is Darren Sproles on screens and wheel routes.

They'll try to get us running side to side and then occasionally try to surprise us with a deep throw.

I think Norman and Breeland put them on lock. Whitner playing a lot more this week I'm going to guess, I think he helps shore up some of the poor angles in the secondary and helps limit Sproles and Ryan Mathews. And without Lane Johnson, I don't necessarily think we have a field day with getting to Wentz, but I don't think they'll be able to run to that side very well. The rookie playing RT is supposed to be a decent pass protector, but where he'll struggle is run blocking.

However, if we have to miss Jordan Reed that will hurt us quite a bit. They'll shade deep to cover Jackson and we won't have the same threat in the middle. And it's not in our hands as to whether Reed plays, the concussion protocol means the independent neurologist has all the say there. We'd just have to hope Crowder can threaten the middle of the field enough, and that we can gash the wide-9 with Matt Jones.

Even matchup. We'll get up for this game, for sure. It's a division game against a team with a 0.5 game lead on us. It doesn't get any bigger. This probably comes down to whether Cousins takes care of the ball or not.

Don't forget about Vernon Davis, he's been playing pretty good when given the opportunity

Re: Filthydelphia Eagles Pre Game Thread
 

If we don't have Reed which I bet we wont, it won't kill us because it opens it up for Crowder to get over the middle and guys like Davis and Paul will get some chances.. Reed has been the main guy basically so it'll be nice to see other get the chance.

Re: Filthydelphia Eagles Pre Game Thread
 

davis is ready to step up. when did reed suffer this concussion?

Re: Filthydelphia Eagles Pre Game Thread
 

Reed is sure handed and gets the extra yards. His absence will be missed on 3rd and medium

I hate saying it because he is awesome, but I agree, if you're that prone to them it's not worth it in the long run. I'm sure he loves the game and it's also a lot of money, but I'd rather have my wits than millions of dollars. But its easier said than done for me to say than for him. He seems like a good guy, hope everything works out for him.

It's the red zone where it kills us. No Doctson, no Reed, we have no size.

Vernon Davis is a nice player but he doesn't have Reed's quickness and he doesn't run routes as crisply.

Matt Jones is going to have to succeed.

This...not only Matt jones needs to run the ball in the rz, but I would take advantage of underneath routes to running backs. Simple plays where our receivers run out or clear out coverage and we look to throw to our backs who can beat lb coverage. Teams like the patriots and Seattle always will run at least one play like this when they get within 10 yards of the end zone...

Also when you lack size we should run more pick plays to garçon or crowder.

I generally like pick plays or clear out underneath throws than fades in the end zone.

Agreed, though having the fade as a threat/decoy is nice. Forces the corner to play straight up as opposed to shading inside. Creates more opportunities.

Against Philly's Wide 9 front, it needs to be a Matt Jones kind of game. But 3rd and goal from the 5 is a great opportunity for a QB draw against that wide 9 front.

There will be ways to score, the execution will just need to be really on point. We need to control the line of scrimmage. If that happens then I like our chances.

Yeah agreed, I love Dunbar, cuz he put in a lot of heart coming from the WR position, but he's not Breeland caliber IMO, announcers called him being aligned on top of Mike Wallace (or Steve Smith, don't remember) a "mismatch". Breeland had a hard game against AB and the Steelers, but he never got roasted, was always in position to make a play, just got beat by one of the best in the league. Then you could tell his confidence was broken and he was not at his best. I'm sure he'll come back from injury hungrier than ever. Watch out for him, and as of now I really don't think we've seen anything to start Dunbar over Bashaud...

"I call them Pigskins,'' Barbre said.

While Barbre gave the Redskins an alternative nickname, he doesn't feel any ill-will towards the franchise.

"I've just never let it bother me," Barbre said. "I don't dislike them any more because of their name, or go out and play harder against them."

His Native American heritage is a different story.

"There really isn't a lot of respect for Native Americans," Barbre said. "I'm talking about the country as a whole. Native American history, I mean, there's no month celebrated, there's not even a day. We have Columbus Day, but there's nothing to do with Native Americans. I feel there's no respect given there."

lol i dont know how you walked away from his comments angry ... I mean, I get it, fuck the eagles .. but the guy came across real well imo and makes a great point --- we dont have a single holiday for Native Americans and no, thanksgiving is not a holiday that we honor them, pretty much the opposite imo.

That is an interesting development. Sproles is not a 3-down back, and that would present a real problem for the Eagles if Matthews cannot make it. Probably more significant to them than the loss of Reed is to us (assuming he cannot play). May force Wentz to throw a bit more.

Personally, I would always rather stomp a team when they are at full strength. But if Matthews doesn't play for some reason, that could be significant.

If he does, terrific. But last year he missed two games with a concussion. Chances are he misses this one.

Re: Filthydelphia Eagles Pre Game Thread
 

Jordan Reed has now had five documented concussions. Who knows how many other. While he is a great player, it may be time for him to think about something else. Brain damage is no joke

Re: Filthydelphia Eagles Pre Game Thread
 

Reed and Cravens both out: [url=http://www.redskins.com/news/article-1/PHIvsWAS-Injury-Report-Jordan-Reed-Out/7ba267d0-7b4e-41ae-afad-36f63d9cfd42]#PHIvsWAS Injury Report: Jordan Reed Out[/url]

I think the loss of Cravens may be more impactful -- we have other pass catchers, but I am worried that Sproles will scoot by our LBs with relative ease. Cravens was the antidote to that.

Hope these guys recover fully and quickly.
