In his last game in playoffs he went for 7 catches for 74 yards and a TD. Just because it's not long term doesn't mean he won't get hurt,dude has been hurt off and on the last few years. He had barely 200 yards last year for the Bucs. At this point in his career he's just a name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the Eagles culture Sirianni was asked about running down the sideline to celebrate Haason Reddick’s late-game sack, and the head coach said that football is fun and he’s not going to hide his emotions. "I want the culture of the Philadelphia Eagles to be: You can have great relationships, have a ton of fun, and still be highly, highly demanding. And that’s our culture. So, when it’s wrong, on the coach’s part or on the player’s part, we’re gonna correct it, we’re going to be demanding, we’re going to hold everybody to the standard — including myself —, but when it’s time to celebrate and have fun, we’re gonna do that and we’re not gonna apologize about that.” He also talked about being animated with Quez Watkins on the sideline at one point, to which Sirianni said he’d keep the coaching point between them, but reiterated that they’re going to be highly demanding, while having fun and great relationships. The head coach said Watkins made a big play on their first drive to get them out of some trouble, and they’re going to need him to keep making big plays. "I know this: When [Watkins’] speed is on the field, it changes us as an offense.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean teams do have to respect that speed or he's shown he can make em pay , not lately but still... I mean I tend to believe what the coach is saying over some TATEr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean every week we hear about how dangerous the tush push is to player safety yet right here we got a LB straight up mortal combatting a WR and nary a peep.🤷♂️ Seriously. I’ve brought it up a bunch. Throwing overhand rights is not an actual football play/move. It’s absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Vermeil compared the two recently and said Carter: "To me, he reminds me of Reggie White. I don't wanna put pressure on him early, but I don't know if he has a limit. If you try to block him one-on-one, it's just a battle you're gonna lose. He is very impressive". Coincidentally both Reggie and Carter had 3.5 sacks in their first 5 games.

Reggie was a freak of nature but that is a very fair comparison to make.....Carter definitely is earning that comparison....I love him on this team....

Reggie also had a couple of years in the AFL to hone his craft. Big as Reggie was, Carter is bigger. Reggie was absolutely the most dominant DL in his time and Carter isn't there yet, if he ever gets there. I remember when Buddy put Reggie on the nose against Jeff Bostic and Reggie about killed him, and the QB behind him. I would say Carter has a chance to be as good.

To be fair to history, Reggie's "rookie" year in the NFL was his 3rd as a professional, because he started with 2 years in the USFL (Memphis Showboats).

That's where I am with it....he has a chance to be as good but to see Reggie in real time was truly a pleasure. It is still very early in the season but I think Jalen has a very good chance to be every bit as dominant.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just relax Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 My sense of Desai's adjustment in the second half was to show six rushers and consistently drop out two. Occasionally he would send five or six. The Rams had trouble picking it up. Nice adjustment. They still need another safety. Evans made me nervous. Stafford missed on a post that would have put the Rams in front. It looked like Evans was late closing. I'll look to the All-22 for confirmation.

I think it’s a different league now. Reggie didn’t play THAT long ago, but there’s still a little Wilt Chamberlain / Babe Ruth to his dominance. I don’t know that a DL is going to stand out amongst their peers and above OL like that again…even a 25 year old Reggie in today’s nfl. He might be the best defensive player in the nfl, but I bet his sacks per game takes a huge hit in comparison to the early 90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
