My in-laws found an Eagles jersey for my son at the thrift store! What a bargain!

At least they are trying...

 

 

 

which is more than could be said about Murray.

Chris Simms picks the 49ers.  Says they are better at their best than the Eagles.  Doesn't think the defense is creative without Jon Gannon.  Says the Eagles won't be able to run on the 49ers.  Says the 49ers are a more motivated team. Florio says that the 49ers are more physical than the Eagles and fully healthy they are the better team.

 

 

 

That is a baffling comment considering how the defense performed in the super bowl :facepalm:

While the 49ers are talented, the pushed narrative that they are obviously more talented is BS.

I bet a month of salary they waited until there was nobody around before they did it.

Eagles made no practice squad elevations today, which indicates at least some of the injured guys will play. One of Goedert or Calcaterra will almost surely play. Possible Cox too.

We have five DTs on the roster, so I don’t see how this would be related to Cox. No Togiai is interesting though.

Diana Russini says Roger Goodell wants the tush push banned and that his voice will carry weight in the offseason when it comes to voting.

Is tomorrow a full 4 weeks since the DG injury?

Starting to think he has a real shot

Yup. Even if Cox can’t go Williams is back, so we’re fine at DT. 

Sorry about Togiai though

A little less than 4 if you count it starting from surgery. I’d be surprised if he plays. Only one player listed as Doubtful ended up playing all year across the NFL, and it was Max Crosby last week. 

It’s also hard to say what he even did in practice yesterday. He was limited so he may have sat out of anything that involves contact.

Thanks…definitely don’t rush it if that’s the case.

I think 2 doubtful guys played last week, right? Before that it was like 3 years ago

Stop rewarding underthrown balls with pass interference. It’s the worst call in sports.

Oh no.....not chest passes again.   Come on guys.

They REALLY need to make a rule that you have to throw overhand. It's embarrassing.

If he’s gonna come here it would have been nice to have made the decision in time to sign to the PS and learn the playbook. We could use him right away.

"Easier said than done: ‘Tush push’

Everyone knows when it’s coming, it’s stopping it that has proved challenging.

The 49ers defense claims they have a good game plan against the Eagles’ "Brotherly Shove” in their NFC championship re-match.

We’ll see it all on Sunday.

Frankly, at this point, the only thing that’s going to consistently stop it is 24 votes from the NFL owners in 2024. It may happen too. 

Most of the time when these plays and rules are being discussed, player health and safety are at the forefront.

However, this one may be decided because of the optics, not injuries. 

From everything I have been told by multiple league sources, injuries aren’t happening as much despite big bodies ramming into each other every week when the play is used.

While it was talked about in detail at the competition committee’s gathering at the league meetings last offseason, it was never formally brought as a playing rule proposal to the 32 owners. This means there wasn’t one team in the league that felt strongly enough against it to have the play eliminated. That is probably going to change.

It’s apparent this is going to be heavily debated among the competition committee made up of owners, general managers and coaches. It’s important to note that there isn’t a single person from the Eagles organization on the competition committee. However, three of their divisional opponents are represented: New York Giants owner John Mara, Cowboys COO Stephen Jones and Washington head coach Ron Rivera. Though it will all come down to the voting, the most important opinion about the play may come from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. I was told by a league source that Goodell wants to see this play removed from the game permanently."
