So as I'm watching Mike and Mike my usual routine I hear who's the second best team in the league? I rewind turn it up they say Fpi has Pats 2nd they both say we've seen enough to determine the Iggles are the hands down second best team in the league. Is this the feeling of the media I'm super confused what makes them 2nd best ?  Our offense was stagnant as Cam healed up we're better then our 18 ranked O and our D ranked 3rd vs 3rd ranked O and 22nd on D I don't see what makes them 2nd best in anyway. Glad it's Primetime all eyes on us. Does anyone see Iggles as a true contender based off what they've seen from them

In the end, it's the Eagles. Any given team, and all that... They have given us fits in the past, and there have been games where we've embarrassed them. It should be a barn burner of a game, but I think our defense will be the stars this week. Something tells me Luke will have a game to make up for the last one and that Pep in a Panther's helmet will be a nightmare revisited for the Iggles.

Let's hope their fans keep their batteries at home.

I'm uncomfortable with the amount of optimism that I have seen lately. Doesn't feel right.

I have that feeling the moment I buy completely in and start pounding my chest eggs are abruptly placed on the field. I'm def not pounding my chest I just feel the vets keeps us extra focused after that disappointment that was 2016.

Last time I was super confident about our chances of winning was the Superb Owl. I went to bed SOBER that night, that's how bad I felt.

 

I've just been hurt too many times :(

This is an odd numbered year. We're good. No worries. Eagles are a solid team no doubt. I think it will be a good game but Cam will be taking a knee in victory formation...again.

Man I'm laughing like them at this moment. That put a good spin on this yea it's any given Sunday but it shows how you handle the weaker teams our D is something special up until we close the offensive playbook at the end of the third when we have a little lead i.e. 10pts Shula drops headset packs up puts the calls on auto pilot just to stress the d out lol.

No team is converting more 3rd downs, than the Eagles. That means they are tops in TOP,  while they are putting up points.

They are also stopping the run. 

That is the recipe for success in the NFL. 

The Eagles are a good team.  

That doesn't mean that we shouldn't win. It just means it's going to be a great game.

I'm sorry but I do not think the Eagles are a top 5 team.  They are good, yes...and they can make the playoffs for sure.  But they have barely won games against the Giants and Chargers (two of the worst teams in the NFL) and got two more wins against the Cardinals and Skins, who are not playoff teams.  They did take KC the distance, so I will give them that.

If we get pressure on Wentz and contain him, he is prone to making stupid mistakes.  The Eagles run defense is nasty...but heck we haven't been running the ball anyways.  If Cam keeps playing like he has the last couple of weeks and we make plays on defense, we could win this game by two or more touchdowns.

      Dan Morgan interviews this week

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Another thread where the Huddle melts down over a Bryce comment.  "Conversations" and "Bryce Young has been signed to a new long-term contract" are still far away from being the gospel.  For a fanbase that has watched two top-3 drafted QBs come here, and us move on, only to see them elevate their play elsewhere, I find it comical. Bryce is flawed but this org is damned if you do and damned if you don't with BY9.  Why would our GM and HC say anything other than supportive about their QB1. Yes, he's extended, but I truly do not think if he goes out and has a repeat of the previous seasons, that he is here beyond 2027. They're giving him every opportunity and surrounding him with a ridiculous amount of assets on both sides of the ball. If he continues to pitch 110 yd/ game and cough up the ball while everyone else is busting their ass, no way Dan keeps him beyond the extension.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Ooof, I was not a Proctor fan. I agree w/ a lot of smarter folks than me that he's more of a guard and think his weight fluctuation is going to be something to navigate. I liked Lomu a lot, but figured there would be more talented guys there at 19. I also wasn't big on bringing in a TE via the draft. If it's not a vet (Njoku) or a trade for Mayer or Kmet, I'd just as soon see what the youngsters have. No need cluttering the room with more of the same.

      Sam Darnold & Bryce Young are two very different Qbs ..just saying the last 25 years approximately 2/3 of ALL  first round Qb's  in the NFL were or are bust.so for everyone who makes it like a Sam Darnold you have two that don't make it or are a bust
