Philly was dead LAST in time of poss. Carolina around 5 or 6.

 

At first glance people will go oh Carolina has to keep what they are doing on offense to keep the ball away from the Eagles and that is partly true but consider this.

If Philly doesn't keep the ball that long, that means our d will not be on the field that much since Carolina also keeps the ball for a big chunk.

 

So something has to give. Maybe it will be the Eagles that need to chew more clock or risk a fresh and ferocious d that eats Foles for lunch.

Eagles are scary bc of Shady and Jackson. I personally think Shady is 1b. Petetson 1a. Quick speed backs are the ones I fear and Shady is the top of the ladder.

As far as Jackson.....we have stunk this year with guys with his downfield speed

We prepare for that offense by using our scout team to mimic their pace in practice. That's what the practice squad is for; they run plays in a style emulating that of the offense and defense we will be seeing that week so that the starters and backups can see the looks, get the proper fits/assignments and learn their checks.

 

At practice it's not our first team offense running against our first team defense. That happens in training camp. Game week prep is much different because we're not playing us, we're playing them.

The Cowboys defense held them to 24, after allowing 27ppg on the season. 

 

Is that comforting enough, or do you need more?

 

 

The cowgirls also had a second tier QB giving the Eagles decent field position throughout the game........just adding to your point.  KEEP POUNDING!

pretty much just follow what the Saints did the 1st half of this game tonight...except the Saints are giving foles way too much time, i trust our front 4 will get a lot more pressure on him.

 

Shut down the run game and McCoy

Press coverage on the receivers, no free releases

Luke and Davis shutdown the screen game

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By MHS831 · Posted

      When I arrived at college, I was 18, not too much younger than some of these draft picks.  It was not a huge school, but there were guys on the team who were 21, 22, 23....playing ahead of me.  I was seventh on the depth chart.  Those guys have been through a few seasons, were stronger, more knowledgeable.  I was a better raw player than some of them, but those other factors matter.  As I grew stronger, more familiar with the playbook, and learned what it was like to play in college, I gradually improved and with that, I rose up the depth chart.  It took most of my freshman year for the light to come on.  Had the coach thrown me into the starting lineup day 1, I would have probably failed.    And that was college.  So I agree with you based on my experience on a much lower level.  Frankly, I think that is why so many kids drafted to fill huge gaps bust.  The teams are desperate.  Anyone who looks to fill vacancies in the starting lineup through the draft is desperate.  You draft depth to develop.  For this reason, I say, "Let Walker start for a while."  Maybe Brazzell can be our WR 4.  Throw Hunter into a rotation and ask him to do one or two things.  Freeling needs some strength and he needs to work on run blocking.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.
