Miles Sanders on the 4th and 2

[ncfan]

Thankfully he didn’t touch it.

but looks like he shouldn’t have even been in that spot in the first place as he ran the wrong route

What did they see in this dude to warrant that fat 4 year contract?

The Eagles OL, apparently.

To some degree we have to also hold the OL, and IMO some of the early play-calling as reasons for ''some'' of his struggles. 

It's clear the lack in talent here on the OL (primarily injured starters) / scheme hurts Miles, considering the OL, and the Read-Option aspect to take the 11th defender out of run plays there is much less room to run in this offense. 

We are worse at running ''in general'' Chuba IMO is just a better inside runner than Miles so he's still able to get pieces here and there.

If he keeps this up he’ll be gone in 2025, and even if he doesn’t he’ll still probably be gone. There’s no reason to sign RB’s after their rookie contract in today’s NFL.

Miles Sanders was rated THE worst receiving RB in the NFL last year.    That's out of every RB that saw the field.  PFF is flawed.  But when they tell you someone is THE worst at something in all the league......there is something there.  He also rated very poorly in that regard in prior seasons. 

The Eagles beat writers covered his career of unreliable and inconsistent play.  It was always something.  Bad routes, bad hands, fumbles, etc. 

This front office is just bad.  I don't even blame the players.  They have come here and been basically all the same versions of themselves but in a bad offense w/ bad coaching.

Trade him to the London Sillinannies for a pack of crisps

Same with Hurst. The MFer has been on way better offenses than this and was a dud. But somehow we are gonna be the exception? Riiight.

But when I say Ian Thomas is our best tight end I get poo'd left and right. The dude sucks, so does tremble, so does Thomas, so does Sullivan.  Te's are straight trash

100%. This is the worst group of TE's our franchise has ever fielded. Not many of them will be in the NFL long after they are gone from here.

Tremble wasn't terrible yesterday. I think a lot of people forget he was a blocking TE that caught a few passes here and there in college. The passing game was never his forte. It was always something he was going to need to work on and develop. Too bad work on and develop can be said of pretty much every pick under the Rhule era.

Many of the same issues that hold Bryce back also hold back Sanders.

Tommy Tremble is a fullback.

How disappointed were you in yesterday's outcome
