Skins vs Eagles - Gameday Thread

Damn shame but the team showed a lot fight. Team has a lot more fight than last years team. Really wish special teams could play a complete game, that was the difference today.

[CASKINS]

If we play a complete game Maybe we win on thursday.

A loss is never a good thing, but we played well against a team a lot of people probably thought would blow us out of the water.

Offense, defense, and special teams did their part to contribute to the loss. We have some kinks to fix, but I think we could have a winning record. It's early in the season, lots of football left to play.

Looking at the yards the defense didn't play bad, but it was how they gave up those yards that sealed the deal

Offense went three and out in the second half in key situations after the defense had kept the Iggles to a FG or had stopped altogether. That also contributed to the loss.

Special teams and stupid penalties

Bad miss by cousins last throw, but wow. Impressed by his execution, Oline did a damn good job in protection.

If your being objective you have to assign some blame to Cousins, winning is what matters right, not personal stats?

Special Teams is bad, Safties were a huge problem all day on defense, never saw so many over the top balls in one game against the same defense. Definately a team loss, just like the Texans loss.

Cousins had a romo like game. Huge numbers and great plays mixed with some bad throws at the end.

The D and Special teams lost another game for us.

[DynamiteRave]

I can't blame Cousins for this loss though. Yeah, he choked at the end but most teams who has a QB throw for over 400 yards and 3 TDs don't lose games.

The defense let a rookie torch them and played piss poor secondary play. Special teams allowing a TD, someone's weak ass leg and Kai's missed FG is ultimately what lost this.

People consistently blame Romo for doing the same thing. This is a team loss, but I think we can beat a number of teams. I think we can beat Philly at home.

Honestly I thought we would get blown out. We can play and I believe beat quality teams. The rematch should be a good one.

[OnceWeWereKings]

Cousins looks like a much more experienced qb than his number of starts show. Dude knows how to read the field. We took the loss, but the positives are that our offense looks totally competent. Our special teams lost this one for us. But I'm not saying anything that everyone doesn't know already. I'm just about over cobra Kai, no matter how cool his nickname is.

Brandon merriwether had a poor game in his return

Clark was too far off the ball too many times also, but we knew that his speed was down when we signed him. Its a bigtime liability against a QB that can make good touch throws.
