WHAT THE F**K WAS THAT


Embarrassing. Disappointment. Shameful. Humiliating. Any more? You can put any-like word there and it would represent the Eagles piss poor effort tonight.




Where do I start.

 

Defense. Jim, I know you have injuries. I know this isn’t the same defense from last year. But, how can a great defensive mind like yours not be able to create and adapt to the situation that is presented?

 

How many weeks does off-coverage not have to work before you change? What is your logic? Reasoning? Don’t give me that what fits the player better bull shit. You have press-corners. USE THEIR ABILITIES. Stop making them play something they are not.

 

Where did the defensive line pressure go? Where was the pressure? After making Blake Bortles day a living hell two weeks ago, Dak Prescott was picking flowers in the backfield. No pressure, just time and more time. Just total embarrassment the Eagles star-studded defensive line got beat by a sworn together Cowboys line.




Now, to you Mr. Pederson.

 

HOW MANY TIMES DOES THE BIG PLAY HAVE TO FAIL BEFORE YOU START PLAYING SMART FOOTBALL? What happened to the fun Eagles offense that was free moving, fun, and causing defenses havoc? Where did that go?

 

Stop trying to get fancy. Stop trying to hit a 30+ yard pass every play. Just run the damn offense how its supposed it and those plays will come. How many times did you want to be in 2nd & mid and try a big play and fail. Causing a harder 3rd down.

 

Prime example is 3rd and 2, in crunch time, in the 4th quarter, trying to tie the game. Lets run a pull out screen play trying to break one for a 30-yard touchdown instead of going for the 1st down. No, instead you get caught and are stopped for a 5-yard loss. There is no-one but yourself to blame because you are the one calling the plays.




Finally, THE NEXT POSSESSION.

 

CAN YOU PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF EAGLES FOOTBALL, CAN YOU PLEASE GET A STOP AFTER YOU SCORE A TOUCHDOWN. MY GOD. WEEK AFTER WEEK. TOUCHDOWN AFTER TOUCHDOWN. CAN YOU PLEASE GET A STOP ON THE NEXT POSSESSION AFTER YOU SCORE.

 

In a week that was supposed to be the elimination of the Cowboys from any playoff hopes. Has now turned in the opposite direction and the Eagles Season is now in the shitter.

 

Hate to say it, but see you in August. This year is over.
