The Eagles have a top 10 defense in terms of yards, and top 3 in terms of passing yards. 

We were down our LG and LT, so  we moved our RT to LT and had a 3rd round rookie have his first NFL start at RT.  We were out our starting safety and linebacker, oh, and did I mention that our biggest offensive weapon, that about 60% of our offense runs through, was out?  And still we would have won if we had just played a little better.

Lets see who is healthy this Sunday.

Shoulda woulda coulda. They were a 1 win team motivated to win while we folded even when they tried to give us the game.

You know, I can't read your posts, frank but I see a little line where you post and they're always right after mine.  Makes me feel good, that I'm under your skin and you're just following me around like a little puppy barking and whining, and I don't have to read your crap.  Because you're on ignore.

That's cute. We both know you read them if you can find the opportunity to habitually poop on them like your pal hubby.

Their offense is 3rd in the league in turnovers dude.  Pts<>Yards due to short fields.  Yards is a better measure.  

Which player that 60% of their offense go through was out?

Yards are better measure than points? In what universe????

 

The eagles are a mediocre team by all accounts and we just lost to them

So the Ravens with Lamar Jackson are in QB limbo?

So the Cowboys with Dak are in QB limbo?

I mean...if we're measuring the ability to win the SB, those two(at least) are lacking that mainly 'cause they haven't even been able to get there.  

 

The requirement for QB limbo is having a QB who has had plenty of time in the league to show off a high level of talent, but instead has showed they are inconsistent (a game manager), or are lower tier (bottom of the NFL in stats).

Having a QB who is great doesn't automatically mean a SB win is only a matter of time. Only some great QBs win SBs, but only teams with great QBs win SBs in this era, with maybe an extremely rare exception. Just look at the last 20 or so SB winning teams. See the QBs?

We're in limbo with Sam. There is no getting out of limbo so long as Sam is the QB.

Thats why you look at both. PPG can be good, but teams can also get points off of 20 yard drives. Yards can be good, but teams can give up a ton of yard in garbage time. 

 

So you're saying the Eagles gave up a ton yards in garbage time...when they lost?  Huh?  Forget it. You're not going to explain that one away.  Your example contradicts your claim and doesn't make any sense.

All stats need context. 

I gave the context for the points and yards discrepancy by citing turnovers.  You gave no context for anything you cited, you just cited 80 points without noting those points were to the Chiefs and Cowboys.  The Eagles limited the 9ers to 17 and Falcons to 6, and of course the Panthers to 18.   

You just don't want to look at context.  You want to look at stats that support your worldview.

I'm not saying for one single game bro, I'm saying overall. You cant just look at one stat, I did not even read your other post before that one but I can go back and read it if you like. I was not calling you out or anything.

      Be careful what you wish for

      Like that matters. That's the first thing. I suggested that it's probably better to let a QB sit and learn, and that's what I meant. Secondly, in what planet am I making excuses, my friend, or engaging in any mental gymnastics in Bryce Young's defense? As I have said, I don't care if he turns into Mighty Mouse, it's time for him to go. In my opinion, he's too short to be a successful QB in the NFL. I have seen enough. I'd rather trade him and take my chances with Hooker, at least he's more of a prototypical size and can actually see where and why he's throwing the ball.

      About that schedule.

      By ok2h8pep · Posted

      There is a scenario where our team comes out prepared to play football instead of shitting the bed for the first quarter. Every bad Bryce game seems to start with him looking incompetent - the OL looking incompetent - and the defense looking incompetent.  Boom, down 14 before we know what hit us. Imagine a world where we come prepared and play with a lead, and Bryce gets to fulfill his ceiling by managing a game instead of playing catch up. He's bad, but upon reflection he is not Clausen bad.  He can move the team down the field when he gets 4 - 5 seconds in a clean pocket against a soft zone.  I don't think Clausen could do that.

      You are literally naming almost entirely instances where they are sitting behind a well established if not star player that was already on the team. That's a different scenario entirely.  Listen, if you want to make all the mental gymnastics for excuses, have at it. I think the facts are clear, Bryce Young is not an NFL caliber player. Furthermore, no amount of pine time nor change of scenery is likely to change that.
