That is very true , it is a crap shoot

Ionnadis,McLaurin, Martin, Harmon, Sims (FA) are perfect examples.

[quote=skinsfaninok;1239658]I would say Terry is a legit #1 , Sims is coming on too but yeah after that the weapons are scarce especially at TE[/quote]

I think Adrian Peterson has been a solid contributor.

Right now, I'm looking at what I think the young weapons can become versus where they are at this point in their careers. With that in mind, I'm very impressed with what Kelvin Harmon has done so far. I believe he'll become a very solid #2 receiver to pair with Terry McLaurin.

I have a problem with Steven Sims. I think he is afraid of hard contact. He drops too many passes, especially over the middle where I think he's hearing the footsteps. He failed to make a critical first down late in the game by tap dancing rather than going straight for the first down line. Was he subconsciously trying to avoid in hit? Also, he should be a much better kick returner, IMO. He takes the ball, slows down, looking for an opening, rather that picking a lane and going for it. Is he concerned about contact? He's in the NFL now. He needs to toughen up and get what he can out of each opportunity.

In the wishful thinking category,[B] IF[/B] both Derrius Guice and Bryce Love could get and stay healthy, then I think they could be one helluva pair of running backs.

Re: Eagles Post game
 

The only thing I felt was wrong with the offense was I felt they should have kept the pedal down more on the passing game. Not enough deep shots I felt.

Eagles o-line was dominant. Idk how many yards they ran for but I know it was a lot. I just don't like this defense at all.

There have been a lot of arguments on the 3-4 vs 4-3. I have NEVER been a fan of asking your best pass rushers to play coverage and I have seen too much of that. Sweat isn't a coverage guy. Why ask him to do that crap? Let's say we draft Young. Who wants to see him dropping back in coverage? That's bullshit. Dexter Manley was a great pass rusher, way better than Kerrigan. Never once did I see him have to cover a TE.

And Landon Collins? lol. Whomever decided to give him the money they did should be fired. He is so not worth the money.

Re: Eagles Post game
 

I have no respect for the NFL as a league. That roughing the passer call on 2nd and 22 was just blatant fucking cheating. And if not cheating, utter incompetence. And nothing will be done about it.

I loved how Payne played the violin after the 2nd BS roughing the passer when he hit him in the shoulder pad area. That was pretty hilarious.

Re: Eagles Post game
 

Our defense just can't make enough plays. It's so infuriating to watch. We need to get a new FS and starting corner in this draft. And Landon Collins is slow asf. Always in the trail position in pass coverage. He might be a 4-3 weakside and not a SS.

Giants fans told us that all along, he's more of a LB than S. We do need a Corner , and EDGE Big time

Nothing got me more livid than the multiple times I saw RB run to the outside, Collins would move up to tackle, and the RBs literally just ran around him. Collins then would be in position to chase them...

If Collins is covering one on one with a TE, WR or RB he gets beat.

After some thought, this has been a terrible signing. Did we make him the highest paid safety?


Our worst cover guys (sans Holcomb...he doesn't know what he is doing) are highest paid guys on defense...Norman and Collins. Such a Bruce fail

The NFL doesn't care as long as the QB's don't get hurt. The refs are clowns at this point.

Re: Eagles Post game
 

[quote=Buffalo Bob;1239654]I would almost call it a break out game for Haskins, huge leap forward.[/quote]

I agree. Although, Haskins' poor fundamentals created a few crappy throws, I'd say he fared well for the most part yesterday.

I thought he did enough to win yesterday's game. Our defense continued to shit the bed whenever it mattered.

It was absolutely an atrocious fucking game the league is an absolute joke anymore.

Yeah I absolutely loved it !! And I thought the fact it took the announcer a full minute to understand what he was doing was quite funny too.

Re: Eagles Post game
 

The Giants made absolutely no attempt to resign Collins and their d sucks. Shouldn't that be enough of a warning flag? The guy makes no plays and runs a 5.0 40.

I noticed he tends to exhibit his worse fundamentals when throwing short to intermediate passes. He seems to side arm a lot of those and throw leaning backward. On most of the deeper balls he looked technically pretty good.
