NCiggles Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I re-watched the game last night. I think the DB's did a much better job disrupting Kupp's and Nacua's routes in the 2nd half. They were a lot more physical. Some of that may have just been Roby coming in and playing well. I thought much of the credit should go to the offense just after the game. I still think Sirianni's emphasis on controlling the clock is a big reason. I also think the defense did much better taking away what McVay wanted to do.

For the offense I think Jerry Jeudy is the best option. Cordarrelle Patterson would be terrific here. Maybe Hunter Renfrow or Ertz. Our LBers are playing well enough though I doubt they’ll make a move. Can’t think of many DBs who someone will throw away that are cheap for us. Roby seems to fit, our safeties will get healthier. Maybe the Honey Badger for his versatility in the slot and safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is taking a S to the other side of the field or deep allowing 1 on 1 for Brown a positive play or a negative one? Frankly, I like the Quez/OZ combo, I just don’t understand 52 snaps for Quez and only 9 for OZ. Should be a few more OZ snaps I think. I guess a game where he contributes by receiving the ball and helping the eagles have success on offense with his receiving ability and not just route running. Like i could say Mack hollins when he had that streak of games with no catches could have taken a safety to the other side of the field or allowing 1 on 1 for one of our receivers at that time. frankly oz should be playing more snaps then 9 and discrepancy shouldn’t be that big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikas83 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 It was legitimately 60-65% Eagles fans in that stadium, and maybe more. When we walked in/out, there was hardly a Rams fan to be found. One question for those who watched -- how did Roby look? Seemed like he came in for the 2nd half and we shut them down. SoFi has a club for seats between the 40s where you can go down to field level and stand right behind the bench. AJ Brown was actually interacting with us towards the end of the game (headed down at the 2:00 warning). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
just relax Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 10 hours ago, mattwill said: Okay, we are half way there. Are you familiar with Malcolm Gladwell? And if yes, with his book "Outliers"? Throughout the book, Gladwell repeatedly mentions the "10,000-Hour Rule", claiming that the key to achieving world-class expertise in any skill, is, to a large extent, a matter of practicing the correct way, for a total of around 10,000 hours. Parcells criteria are a reflection of that 10,000 Hour Rule ... Parcells translated "hours" into "starts." Parcells would look at last April's QB class and say Anthony Richardson didn't have enough starts, neither did Bryce Young or CJ Stroud. He would also almost surely say that Brock Purdy's greatest asset was the 48 starts he had over his 5 years at Iowa State. I find Gladwell to be amusing but facile. Old wine, new bottle. The 10,000 hour rule has just enough examples to seem substantive but falls apart with even brief inspection. There’s no room for talent, just for starters.

A simple post route to the TE should be a staple play from 20 to 5 yards out from the end zone. With a guy like Goedert, you'd think that would be an obvious move for them. But... somehow they haven't made it a priority. Just run the old Chad Lewis routes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waiting4Someday Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 40 minutes ago, greendestiny27 said: Dean is another run defender, we do not seem to have a LB that excels in coverage. Morrow had a Nakobe ‘at UGA game’ playing clean and allowed to blitz vs WAS. We haven’t seen that yet from Dean at this level - although I think he has better hands to pluck easy INTs and scoop fumbles which was a missed opportunity yesterday.

wussbasket Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 There seems to be a bigger emphasis on punching the ball out than previous years, or maybe I'm just noticing it more. I routinely see players try to punch the ball out rather than actually attempt the tackle. Eagles look to be well coached on offense about that and are getting 3-4 extra yards as the opposing defense refuses to try to tackle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rentrow is no better than anything already on the roster Ertz is way past his prime and doesn't block. One of the reasons the run game works is because Goedert and Stoll are good run blockers, Ertz was never even a decent run blocker he hasn't gotten better at it in his late 3Os. Juedy would be a big get but I'm not sure Howie would be willing to give you what he'd cost in a trade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's any reason to trade for him other than nostalgia. I think Renfrow from 2021 would be an upgrade. I don't think he has played well since that season.

Their main jobs are to block and get the primary open. But ignore them or put a player on them that gives too much cushion and boom, long play. Eagles will target them enough to insure they are a threat. Not you but I find it interesting how Quez and OZ can be both overvalued and undervalued here.
