I'm in State College, and will either be at the PSU WVB during the Birds game, or driving home during the game. As such, I'm setting this thread up early, and counting on Birds fans to keep it updated.
Go Birds.
Go Birds.
E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!! Birds - Jaquars game thread

Welp. This is just about the worst possible start for the Eagles. They’re making Jacksonville look like the 03-04 Patriots.
It’s not a good weather day to be playing from way down.

Well at least they know they are in a dog fight. Jags go into a shell soon. Got around 2 1/2 hrs to go
I think on the hurts INT return, he was diving after the returner and landed on his right shoulder. He was favoring it as he was running to the locker room
Missed xp aside, that was an important sequence. It gives the Eagles the chance to create a bit more space in the game.
Couldn’t have asked for a better first half. Slay goes out, reddick says “I got you dude. We’ll just make it so they don’t have time to pass the ball”. Mailata goes out, enter Driscoll paired with Land and they say “follow me boys…”. Down 14 early and methodically score score score while the D puts up a wall. Now they just gotta play in the second half, something they haven’t had to do so far this year. Want to see another 2 scores.
Impressive 2nd quarter. Misssed extra point, but three TD ‘s and the run game is pulling the load - perfect for the weather conditions
Bradberry with the pick! Jags we’re driving too…..
My goodness reddick is a monster. He might be the best pickup this offseason. Instantly changed this D
Yep. Those are the moments that make one skeptical about this team. They could have finished them, but let them go 80 yards for a TD instead.
After an iffy decision to go on 4th and 3, the Eagles defense redeems them with a 5th takeaway. Game over. Phew.
Yup I mean why go up 11 w under 2 min to go w no TOs?? I mean there’s a fine line between aggressive n irresponsible
I want to know if the coach thought Elliott was in too much pain to attempt that FG. It makes no sense otherwise.
My hunch is it came down to analytics. They felt going gave them better odds than a 42 yard FG attempt.
the Iggles are the last undefeated team in the NFL- I've been a fan for over 50 years, and if this has ever happened before I'm not remembering it
I believe the last time that happened was the 2004 season—when they went to the Super Bowl.

Has anyone seen updates on Mailata’s shoulder? My hope is that Slay and the others will be ok, but the team can’t afford to lose Mailata for a long period.
I have not heard, I think we all saw him on the sideline trying it out, so I cant think it would be too bad. Now I think Dillard should becoming off the DL? wasnt it like 4 weeks? so maybe we see if he has something. That said I think Driscoll played pretty well once he settled in. Think about it, how many teams can play their 3 team LT and a 2 team OG and still win.
