E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!! Birds - Panthers '24 game thread

[Tom McAndrew]

Please use this thread for all pre-game, in-game, and post-game discussion of the 2024 Eagles - Panthers game.

I'm setting this up in advance, as I have something else to do all morning and into the early afternoon. In fact, I'll miss the 1st half of the game. (I turned down a free ticket to the game, once I realized I could not get out of my other commitment.)

Go Birds!!!

Seriously, Tom? Iggles? It isn’t even 8 a.m. EST. We still have a lot of Franklin bitching to do.

SMH let them off 2-21

 

[WestSideLion]

The Eagles defense needs to tighten up. Can’t take the Panthers for granted.

 

[WestSideLion]

Zack effing Baun!

 

[WestSideLion]

Jesus, Hurts. Poor start today. Barkley for 8 on first down. Then Hurts loses yardage on two draws.

 

[WestSideLion]

7-3 Eagles. Barkley got close and Hurts finishes it off with a tush push

 

[s1uggo72]

TD Philadelphia Eagles!! Let’s get a D turnover!!!

 

[WestSideLion]

The bettor who put $3 million on the Eagles today can’t feel good right now. They’re letting Carolina move the ball.

Iirc that bettor is from WV?

 

[LionJim]

Delete, ffs.

 

[s1uggo72]

Hmm not good.

 

[WestSideLion]

TD Carolina on 4th and goal. The Eagles need to wake up.

 

[WestSideLion]

This is shades of the Arizona game last year.

Allowing too much on first down

 

[s1uggo72]

I like the zone plays better than the toss to SB

 

[WestSideLion]

Hurts is just awful today. He’s such a limiting QB out there. Any pressure up the middle and he just falls apart.

We could get some three and outs to help him get more reps

 

[WestSideLion]

There we go D!

 

[WestSideLion]

That was a big takeaway and TD. 14-10 Eagles just before the half.

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

GO BIRDS!! (I was at the dog park, how we lookin?)

 

[WestSideLion]

It’s nice to have Slim back out there. You can see the difference it makes.

 

[WestSideLion]

Wow. They squandered that possession. Barkley was shredding Carolina. He took a breather, they flopped and Elliott missed a long FG.

This is how you get beat at home.

 

[s1uggo72]

I was hoping Jake was straightened up going into the playoffs. That’s a bad miss

 

[WestSideLion]

It seems like Carolina has exploited Slay all game. It may be his time.

Everyone has exploited Slay all yr

 

[WestSideLion]

What a big offsides penalty on 3rd and 13. They let Carolina convert. First and goal.

 

[WestSideLion]

Carolina TD. The Eagles are going to get beat.

 

[s1uggo72]

What a big offsides penalty on 3rd and 13. They let Carolina convert. First and goal.

Whenever the Eagles get beat it’s because they allow the other team to have long slow drives. 2 yds here 3 yds there a penalty. Go back to Arizona last yr. Washington in the superbowl yr. It’s all dink and donk

Right. And they squander chances on offense. But losing to a 3-9 team is inexcusable for a team hellbent on a title.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Finally got home. Seems I picked a good game to miss part of.

[WestSideLion]

The Eagles D has no answers for this Carolina attack. They’re down to one RB and can’t throw beyond 10 yards, yet are moving at will.

 

[WestSideLion]

3rd and 8. Can the Eagles cover Thielen?

 

[WestSideLion]

And a stop. Phew. Now let’s put this game away.

 

[s1uggo72]

Now need a 7 min TD drive.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Panthers opt to not kick a 45-yard FG, and go for it on 4th & 2, but Young's pass is incomplete. Birds take over on downs. Around 9 min. left in the game.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

He breaks Shady McCoy's record:

 

[WestSideLion]

Why Hurts?!?! Throw it away.

 

[s1uggo72]

Why go down there??
