MNF Thread - Eagles at Cowboys

Well.... I've not really been watching the game.  Had it on in the background while I work on some other stuff....  But given the way the Cowboys are dominating, they should be a very good test for the Panthers.  If we can pull off a win in Dallas, it should help quiet the "but they haven't played any good teams" narrative.

Quality competition will be a good measuring stick for how we're doing, though it certainly hurts that CMC & Jaycee won't be playing.

Hurts has been horrible this game.

And I'll tell you this, it doesn't matter who he is coaching, I can tell by their style of play and I absolutely hate him for that style - Dan Quinn.  Dude is an asshole, and his teams play like assholes.

Aside from that, Diggs is extremely impressive.  Parsons too.  Their defense looks fast and athletic.  I have always liked Dak, but I'm just not all that impressed with their offense.  But all in all, I definitely think next week is a huge challenge.  Their defense versus our OL is my biggest concern right now.

It wasn't as one sided as the score might indicate. I think all the momentum went to the Cowboys when an eagles WR fell on his ass and the cowboys got a pick 6 

From what I've seen the Cowboys dictated the game through running and play action. If we stifle their run game and pressure dak we have a good shot imo.  They don't seem like world beaters to me.

Just going to have to hope our  o line doesn't get punked. The Cowboys pass rush is pretty good

The Payton and Eli show had LeBron,  nick Saban on and mat Stafford.  Pretty entertaining  but I wouldn't watch it if you want consistent play by play at least half of it is them interviewing the guest or talking about random poo lol

last week's epi was amusing.

Saban was boring.

Long was pretty interesting.

we don't want this for the play-by-play, its for the "we're watching at the sports bar with our buddies and the sound is turned off, so let's do our own commentary" action.  In a lot of ways, I like it better than hearing the constant chatterboxes filling broadcast time

Yeah we’re 3-0 and would have definitely had more of chance with CMC and Horn. I thought we would no doubt go 4-0 with them playing.

I don't think it would be a letdown game at all.  Especially since CMC and Horne are out.  I have a feeling Dallas will be favored by more than the home 3 by Vegas.

    • I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
    • there is a 100 mile long list of NFL players and coaches going to bat and defending horrible play from teammates.   
    • In 6 games, we've only had 6 hurries??? ... that can't be accurate
