Other Sports: Philadelphia Eagles (NFL): THIS IS BRAZIL (Start Of 2024 Regular Season)

[Halladay]

I'm guessing BG will try to play. Would be about 2.5 months since his injury. Others have come back in less time.

 

[litflyersfan]

Praying for Dickerson and Jurgens, we need those two healthy to slow down Chris Jones on the inside. Otherwise it’s going to be a long night for Hurts.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

It's wild since most people I see apparently hate us?

I don't know how we became an unlikable team.

The fans? Totally get it. They're animals. But the team itself doesn't deserve that label.

The tush push thing is apparently a big deal. Which is weird, don’t get me wrong.

So we think Barkley and the oline bring it in the SB? You know he wants this opportunity after languishing on the Giants. Must be crazy for guys like Mitchell and Cooper to go from Toledo and Iowa to starting on the biggest stage in less than a year.

The Eagles will win the Super Bowl in two weeks. Book it.

Dude I love my city

Shipley might also have a bigger role if Gainwell is ruled out. Barkley does need a breather every now and then.

The Chiefs’ offense is built to complete Intermediate passes over the middle of the field. The Eagles are softest to Intermediate MoF passes.

The Chiefs’ defense wants to play extra LBs and has EDGEs that hold the line. The Eagles throw the ball as a 4th option.

I have no idea what some people are watching. Of course they can win. Completely different issue. It’s just not the best stylistic matchup.

 

[Chicken N Raffls]

We won’t beat Roger and Taylor, Allen needs to convert this

This is why you're my favorite game day poster. Some folks bring level headed logic, breakdowns, and stats. Benny says, f*** that noise, I'm going full intangibles! Have some EMTs on standby in two weeks my dudebrah! Safety first. And GOOO BIRDS!!!!

 

[Strawberry Fields]

God I ****ing hate the Kelces

 

[FLYguy3911]

Looking like Chiefs -1.5 on the early line.

 

[Gregor Samsa]

I feel oddly confident about Hurts in the Super Bowl. Probably only McNabb and and Obama (maybe Street too?) have been called the n word by Philadelphians more than Hurts, and Hurts seems like the type of guy who can win over begrudging respect

Truly a mystery.

I f***ing hate this dweeb. I want to punch him in the face for being that obnoxious prick in class.

Now I'm so angry when I'm trying to wind down in bed.

Jalen Hurts is on his way to officially having been in more Super Bowls than Aaron Rodgers

Not to mention Spags loves exotic blitzes. Good thing we handle them so well. /s

So apparently BG is coming off IR tomorrow to get ready for SBLIX

 

[Halladay]

To the suprise of no one.

The Graham thing is from Marcus Hayes. I’ll wait.

Graham said he’s being re-evaluated tomorrow. He did not say he was playing.

 

[SwordsgoneWild]

To the suprise of no one.

Mahomes/Reid owns our middling Nickel D that we run like 90 percent of the time. Our coach is too stubborn to ever change his D.

 

[Jtown]

Maybe Herbert needs a straight jacket?

 

[deadhead]

So BG is going to dress? Psych move on Mahomes!

This Eagles team is better than two years ago, KC is worse.
The key will be the Eagle DL against the KC OL.
Eagles will run on KC, they run on everyone. But the short passing game can loosen up run defenses.

The biggest Eagle weakness will be the OL, the center question, and Lane isn't as good as two years ago.
But Barkley is much better than Sanders.
The wildcard is Shipley, that kid has serious burst, reminds me a bit of Charlie Garner.

KC's biggest dropoff is their OL.

The Eagles defense is upgraded practically everywhere, no disrespect for Cox and Hargrave, but Carter is already better (Cox at 32, not Cox at his peak).
I mean would you rather have Bradberry, Epps, Maddox, Edwards, or Mitchell, Blankenship, DeJean and Baun?
