E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!! Birds - Bucs Wild Card Playoff game thread

[WestSideLion]

The Eagles are their typical slow starting selves today. Can they continue slowing Brady and Co?

 

[s1uggo72]

Eliot has a tendency to be somewhat optimistic, but perhaps he's right.

As opposed to @WestSideLion

 

[psu31trap]

Is the Eagles backup Minshew (sp) healthy? If yes, the OC should give him serious consideration just to see if he can sustain a drive.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

this about sums it up

As opposed to @WestSideLion

Ouch. And this after I try to turn over an optimistic new leaf.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Bucs with another TD. With the PAT, it's 14-0, Bucs, with 25 sec left in the 1st qtr.

Well Tom if you get bored

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[s1uggo72]

Yup

 

[Tom McAndrew]

End of the 1st qtr, 14-0, Bucs

I thought he was an optimist

 

[troutrus]

No sound for me. If I gotta see an *** whipping’ I sure as heck don’t want it coupled with buck and cowboy troy.

 

[s1uggo72]

Powder Keg w a play

 

[Nohow]

Roughing!

34 yard FG by the Bucs makes it 17-0, Bucks with 9:16 left in the 1st half.

Birds' D finally stiffened when the Bucs got inside the 10.

Meh. At 17-0, this one is very likely over. The Eagles don’t have the playmakers on either side to make up that kind of a deficit.

The silver lining is that this underlines that they need a lot more at QB. Hurts is playing a good D on the road, but he’s been just awful.

 

[Bvillebaron]

Refs: Don’t even think about breathing on our boy Tom.

The hit was late. And I don’t like Brady.

 

[TheGlovStillRules]

Put a picture of the entire Eagles offense on a milk carton! They are definitely missing!!!

I don't think the Steeler offense will show up either though time will tell.

 

[Bvillebaron]

To me it looked like the Bucs defense jumped off sides. No call.

Yeah officiating is why the Eagles are losing. That’s it.

 

[s1uggo72]

Dumb, punt the ball

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Birds going for it on 4th down around (4th & 4) from around midfield.

and they convert

 

[s1uggo72]

Lucky

 

[psu31trap]

The Bucs defense at full strength may be the best in the NFL.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Birds seem to be in love with the screen pass today, and are getting little to nothing from it.

 

[s1uggo72]

SMH but that should be a penalty

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Birds go for it on 4th & 10, and are lucky that the Bucs didn't intercept the ball. Not sure if Reagor screwed up or Hurts just threw a lousy pass.

 

[Nohow]

The hit was late. And I don’t like Brady.

BS. The ref in the booth and both announcers disagree.

 

[s1uggo72]

SMH but that should be a penalty
There was another one on a pass Hurts throws the ball while running around and then gets pushed to the ground from behind which should have been a penalty

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[WestSideLion]

Eagles get a dead ball penalty after 4th down.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[WestSideLion]

That’s 1/2 of their problems on offense right there. A budding star at TE who can’t catch and one WR who can be doubled and shut down.

 

[Bvillebaron]

BS.

Keep whining.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Eagles get a first via dead ball penalty.

I thought it was a dead ball penalty after the INT, so the ball stays with TB, but they just get moved backwards 15 yards.

Go to hell.

You’re right.
