OT: Philadelphia Eagles (NFL): When You're Up, It's Never As Good As It Seems, And When You're Down, You Never Think You'll Be Up Again

[Kermit the Prog]

Dallas Goedert looks like Bigfoot



I had no idea people found Bigfoot attractive.

“The more you know…..”

We got our punter back

Activated Greg Ward. Guess that means Covey isn't playing.

 

[Sombastate]

So, tickets are around 2700. I live 4 hours away. So no hotel or transportation necessary

at what price point do I just pull the trigger?

Yes.

Meeting of the Desert Ducks is in order. We can expense it.

Can you put a price on memories? I'd say wait until it gets to $2,500, but, honestly, if you're going to drop 2.5 large, you can drop 2.7.

 

[Sombastate]

Yes.

Meeting of the Desert Ducks is in order. We can expense it.

are you going?!

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

are you going?!

About to take off.

 

[Svechhammer]

Just flew down to Disney yesterday with the kids and I have already completely lost count of the number of 'Go Birds' I have received because of my Eagles hat

 

[Starat327]

About to take off.

For someone who lives 2.7 miles from me, my invites get lost in the mail an awful lot.

In an effort to make myself feel more confident tomorrow, I compiled a list of the biggest stat lines to compare the two teams using all Regular Season totals.

These teams are certainly the top seeds for a reason. Let's hope Philly can exploit the Red Zone & Turnover disparity here.

Total Offense
KC - #1
PHI - #2

Total Defense
KC - #16
PHI - #7

Red Zone Offense
KC - #1
PHI - #2

Red Zone Defense
KC - #31
PHI - #11

Rush Defense (yards per attempt)
KC - #16
PHI - #24

Pass Defense (yards per attempt)
KC - #6
PHI - #1

Takeaways
KC - #21
PHI - #3

Giveaways
KC - #8
PHI - #9

Turnover totals
KC -3
PHI +8

Time of Possession
KC - #13
PHI - #10

Sacks
KC - #2 (55)
PHI - #1 (70)

Turnover % per Game
KC - #26 (I think 1st team to make the SB while being negative in net Turnovers)
PHI - #7

Time of Possession
KC - #13
PHI - #10

Sacks
KC - #2 (55)
PHI - #1 (70)

Had to check the TO% one, I'm seeing these two teams ranked 8th and 9th offensive in TO%. Defensive TO% I see the Eagles 3rd and the Chiefs 21st.

I ultimately think everyone is talking about the wrong quarterback. To me if Jalen plays well it is very difficult for me see them losing. Think they can slow down Mahomes just enough.

 

[ChaosLord]

The big stat for me is that #16 Rushing Defense for the Chiefs. You can bet the Eagles will try to exploit that, with their #1 O-Line opening up huge holes for Sanders and Hurts to run through. Look for long, time consuming drives that will result in points, all the while keeping Mahomes and co on the bench. Philly had their way against the 49ers rushing D, no reason to think they won't against KC as well.

I suppose I should break this down further! What I posted looked odd adding them together.

Turnover totals
KC -3
PHI +8

I had a dream the the eagles forced a turnover on the Chiefs' first possession and turned it into a FG. I also dreamed the Eagles won 31-27 two days ago.

I'm actually not nervous, but I really want them to win so I can party afterwards at City Hall. Ergo, they probably won't

 

[Van Buren Boy]

I believe i read that the Chiefs are the first team to make a Superbowl with a negative turnover total.

No, not one of those, DP. Stay home in the Lulus.

 

[Kermit the Prog]

One thing is for sure. The Eagles could win this by three touchdowns and 95% of the in-game comments here will be about:

a) Firing Siriani or the coordinators
b) The game being over (an Eagles loss) sometime in the 3rd quarter with the Eagles having the lead
c) Trading an Eagles player - during the game, no less - and going after Player X in Free Agency
d) Turning off the game

I will not miss it this time around

You didn't miss anything.

No stories of pulled fire alarms yet?

Even when Philly teams are successful, Philly fans remain unconvinced

I’m so excited I’m going to shit my pants
