E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!! Birds - Falcons game thread

[Nothing Special]

Ok. That was pretty decisive.

 

[s1uggo72]

Maybe good Jalen is showing up

 

[s1uggo72]

Need another TD before the half

[s1uggo72]

We are getting absolutely whipped by their LT

 

[BobPSU92]

When do you ever see a flag for holding picked up?

 

[s1uggo72]

SMH we are not lining up correctly!! My god no wonder they are running down out throats you can’t play a 2 or 2i and a wide 5. SMH

 

[WestSideLion]

This Fangio defense isn’t working. I’m tired of watching Eagles defenses let Kirk Cousins pick them apart from a clean pocket.

 

[s1uggo72]

Hmmmm big off season get just got driven past the hole. D ain’t playing with no pride

As mentioned, every time they go back to pass, they do the Eagles a favor

Troy likes both offenses in a 7-6 game

 

[s1uggo72]

Bryce Huff is terrible

 

[s1uggo72]

Ok. Try Devin white at LBer. Carter needs to sit

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[s1uggo72]

That 3 would look good now

 

[Tom McAndrew]

9-7, Falcons, after a 32-yard FG by Atlanta on their opening drive of the 2nd half

 

[WestSideLion]

Bryce Huff is terrible

He’s a cut candidate. What an awful signing! He’s shown nothing on a DL bereft of a pass rush.

 

[Alphalion75]

Need another TD before the half

Ok

 

[Ludd]

Why would the Falcons even throw the ball at all…just keep handing it off to Robinson.

 

[Alphalion75]

9-7, Falcons, after a 32-yard FG by Atlanta on their opening drive of the 2nd half

Correct.

 

[PSUJam]

Barkley brought down by Ebiketie. That's pretty cool.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Birds with a 29-yard FG attempt makes it 10-9, Birds, with 4:28 let in the 3rd qtr.

Nice drive by the Birds, except for DeVonta Smith not coming down with the 3rd down pass at the goal line. (In his defense, if it was thrown to his outside, the DB would not have been able to knock it out.)

 

[Pocono Lion]

It would be helpful if Britain Covey went north and south instead of running 10 yards sideways

 

[WestSideLion]

Sigh. They make Cousins look like an All Pro.

 

[Nothing Special]

Really hate this defensive philosophy. Death by a 1000 paper cuts.

Fangio’s D is not only bad but it’s also marginalizing all their DL talent.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Falcons with a nice drive for a TD (aided by a terrible job of tackling on the TD by CJGJ), makes it 15-10, Falcons, with 1:21 left in the 3rd qtr.

 

[Psu00]

Eagles D is lacking. They just give up too many big plays at crucial times.

That decision to not kick the FG in the 1st quarter may come back to haunt them.

 

[Alphalion75]

Falcons with a nice drive for a TD (aided by a terrible job of tackling on the TD by CJGJ), makes it 14-10, Falcons, with 1:21 left in the 3rd qtr.

15-10

 

[s1uggo72]

Fangio’s D is not only bad but it’s also marginalizing all their DL talent.

Which DL talent?

 

[WestSideLion]

Which DL talent?

Carter? Sweat is a good 4-3 DE who is playing OLB now.

 

[Relayer]

Eagles D is lacking. They just give up too many big plays at crucial times.

That decision to not kick the FG in the 1st quarter may come back to haunt them.

I hated the call too, but If the Eagles kicked the FG, the Falcons would have gone for one to make it 16-13. Either way, they would need 6 to take the lead.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

TD, Barkley!!!

On review, they rule his knee down at the half-yard line

 

[Alphalion75]

TD, Barkley!!!

Correct.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

TD, Hurts, on the tush-push

16-15, Birds, with 6:47 left in the 4th qtr.

Birds go for 2, Barkley tries to jump over, the refs mark him short, but after a conversation he's ruled to have converted on 2nd effort.

18-15, Birds, with 6:47 left in the 4th qtr.

 

[Ludd]

TD Hurts and 2 point conversion Barkley.

 

[Psu00]

Barkley with the 2 point conversion!
