Skins vs Eagles - Gameday Thread

Correct me if I'm wrong...

Jacksonville held the eagles scoreless for the first half of their game... Right? Oh, ok.

I don't know what game you're watching but the defense has been atrocious. At least as bad as the ST and IMO more so.

Same as you, not saying they are great or even that good. But it would no be as lose and Philly has start at pretty much the 40 every drive.

Preach. I can't take watching kickoffs. We are giving the game away. Stupid ass decision not carrying a guy for kickoffs. No excuse

We knew our secondary is garbage, but the pass rush is not supposed to be bad. They are letting a banged up Iggles o-line push them around.

Also, Perry Riley has messed up on those two TDs.

Perry Riley. The new London Fletcher.

I thought we were using the punter for kickoffs? What the hell happened to that? He was knocking them out of the back of the end zone every time last week.

Guys we are playing the best offense in football. Special teams needs to p lay better and make am adjustment to Riley on Matthews

Riley obviously isn't the greatest cover linebacker, Haslett should've adjusted after the first td to Matthews and not called any more red zone plays where he's matched up on Riley. Exploiting a d's weaknesses is football 101. It's also embarrassing watching this team dominate in TOP yet still be losing at the half. My first thought is we need to keep the Eagles offense off the field in the second half but we did that in the first half and we're still losing.

This. The Eagles are a good enough team, they don't need any freebie td's on special teams. We already gifted them one in the first half, we better straighten up for the second half.

folks, D will adjust. O time of possession will wear on Eagles average D.

Game is 60 minutes long. Let's just hold.

(He says, jinxing any chance of a win.)
I do think Haslett has done good half time adjustments against Philly. That said, they get the ball first...

When are the Skins going to get serious about special teams? Give up yet another TD, and short kickoffs leading to solid Philly field position. That is the difference in the game so far.
