Week 5

If somebody said “ I need you to bake me a cake “ and i did it outside on a grill. And they tasted the cake and it they loved it.
Then they say “ what temp you cook this on“

and I said “ idk it was on the grill”

And then they “oh well that’s now how your supposed to bake cakes and side eyed my cake “

That is ridiculous… I understand our record is what it is but the world can’t ask Jalen to be better passer and his stats show that for the metric we love, Touchdowns, he is better then some of the top, and get mad at how he does it.

The main media pisses me off about this and I’m tired of the goalpost moving for our QB

I never got to see McNabb play but if I did I think he'd be one of my favorite players of all time. Jalen Hurts is my favorite player and I think will eventually be the greatest Eagles player of all time, however it is nice to look back every once and a while.

Why would we get rid of a QB with his accomplishments? Tell me what college QB went to two Super Bowls, I’ll wait

If you’re a true eagles fan, you should only care about Jalen earning his spot, not the best chance we have to win in the future!

Shady out here defending the Eagles

Admittedly that was a complete hospital ball that Randall threw though.

My mini Jordan, so clutch, you'll see this week, he's going to prove all you doubters wrong once again, he's a former Super Bowl MVP, I'd take a Super Bowl MVP over any other QB in the league, argue with a wall.

The conversation about coaching decisions shouldn’t obscure the bigger problem with this team at the moment: the offense.

The Eagles rank No. 29 in EPA/drive, No. 31 in yards, No. 29 in points. The second-half problems are more pronounced. The Eagles haven’t scored a touchdown after halftime in the previous three games. The Eagles are No. 32 in the NFL in average second-half yards. The gap between the Eagles and the No. 31 team is larger than the gap between the No. 31 team and the No. 12 team.

“We’re looking at that hard each and every week as a staff, how to find our rhythm, find our footing in the second half,” Mannion said. “I thought we did a better job and there were some close calls. It was more about finishing those drives. … I think there were some chances there that we just didn’t quite capitalize on.”

I don’t get wrapped up in the “identity” talk as much as others might because that can change based on the opponent, but I’m also not sure what the Eagles can hang their hats on at this point.

Herbert’s already fragile as is and low on confidence. This isn’t the fanbase/city to play for if you’re a mental midget. Ask Ben Simmons.

I’m coming from out of state (Virginia) and want to go to the Eagles vs. Panthers game this Sunday. Was wondering if you guys have any advice on some logistics. Will be doing this as a same day trip there and back.

Looking to drive up to the City Hall area and metro in for the game? Not sure if there are other closer parking areas to the stadium, without being caught in any major traffic. I’m fine with taking the metro or ubering (not sure if Uber would make sense). I want to have a great first experience with my girlfriend, not sure when the next time I’ll be coming to Philly for a game.

Do you guys have any advice on logistics for parking and how easy it is to Metro? Maybe what time I should be at the stadium?

Also food wise, was thinking of the Reading Terminal Market and getting a nice steak n cheese since I heard they have good food there. Any thoughts/advice?

I know a lot of coordinators do it nowadays, but I have never been the biggest fan of a coordinator in the press box and not on field. I know Vic has done it his whole time here, and others do it and have success, but with this struggle on the offense I personally feel if mannion is in the sideline able to physically talk to guys perhaps there could be some improvement. Maybe I’m just stuck in small things I don’t like, but at this point they have to try anything to get the offense clicking a little smoother with the number of injuries.
