Drew Brees and Michael Thomas vs Chandon Sullivan. The ultimate showdown.
Remember the game they played against the Packers a few years ago when Chip was coach. Jordy Nelson kept burning Bradley Fletcher. I see this one playing out in a similar fashion.
Drew Brees is going to throw for 8 touchdowns and they'll have to remove Foles' jersey from the Hall of Fame.
I might start a re-watch of the wire by 1/2 time.
the eagles were 8 point favorites against dallas and now are 8 point dogs against the saints
feel like it should be 28
Any thoughts on Josh Adams getting the start? I thought he could be a good pro back when he was at ND if he didn't run so upright but I guess that's been fixed.

He's probably better than Clement, and it's the only spot on the offense they have a chance of improving this season.
So Peyton lost a bet to Doug on the golf course earlier this year in Tahoe. Birds get to wear green at Superdome. How cute.
next level okie doke from the eagles
tanking this year to give false hope to wash and now dallas who will keep their terrible infastructures in place
next level thinking
One play one penalty.
This is a great start. Penalties on the kickoff and Joe Buck totally checked out on commentary.
Awesome start.
I'm sorta looking forward to seeing Teddy Bridgewater in the second half.
4th and 1 against the best team in football and you punt...i dont care where it is youre going
I'm not watching this shtein. I have enough time before dinner to get another load of laundry washed dried and folded, and stage my tools for work tomorrow.
Have a good time.
Should have qb sneaked there. 4th and a foot. Gutless to punt in that dome
Yep good idea to punt.
But they're really good against the run, though.
It would be great if they had linebackers.
The funny thing is the Saints had about a 98% chance of making that 4th down.

Fire both these cowardly coaches.
For all I know that's the best kickoff return anyone's had this year.
wentz looks good
Deep zone third and 9? Cool
This is going to be baaaad
jimmy going bend but dont break...try to limit possessions and make a stop in the red zone
not sure what else you can do with their personnel
on the flip side the offense has 6 plays against this bad d so
Good thing the Eagles are deep in the secondary.
Maddox is hurt? Season's over.
:CF trip to NovaCare Center to try out for CB?
can tim hauck still play
Typical Eagles, can't even have the most impressive leg injury of the day.
Time for a super conservative 3 and out. The Saints won't be expecting that!
Looks like I picked the wrong season to quit sniffing glue.
Haaaaa. Legit lol.
Wentz seems shook. Saints keep blitzing and he holds the ball.
anyone want my eagles tickets for the rest of the season
Are we SURE this team won the Super Bowl last year?

Put your garbage in a trash can.
Also not sure whether wentz's decision to throw that or agholors effort was better

Punt in the form of a pass on second down also an option.

Much like the Patriots sudden rise immediately after 9/11, the league conspired to prove that Kaepernick didn't have to be signed by a team that lost their rising star quarterback.
That was a helluva punt by Wentz.

Wentz is checked the farg out.
The defensive line might as well not even exist.
Bradham getting worrrked this quarter
Eagles are dropping 8 and white guys I've never heard of are still wide open.
This is the bend and then break defense.
Can't even be mad at this point. Can't give a shtein, either, but I just can't be mad.
They nearly doubled their offensive output for the game on that play.
a stop?
It's very cruel, how the Saints are letting you think there's still a chance.
Can't wait to see what Doug dials up for this third down. I'm thinking failed screen.
Adams has looked pretty good, maybe they should lean on him a little more.
I can't believe this offense is on the shoulders of the fifth string undrafted RB, who just sprained his ankle.
He holds the ball so farging long

I'm not even sure Adams can lean on his own leg too much.
"The move he put on Wisniewski." What move? The guy just let him go and started chipping at someone else entirely!
the worst part of this season is the realization that wentz isnt great...hes just good
Quote from: MDS on November 18, 2018, 05:41:45 PM

You do realize his knee exploded less than a year ago, right?
I love seeing multiple Eagles players pushed back eight yards by one guy.

yea thats why he holds the ball forever
This defense is so bad.
Quote from: MDS on November 18, 2018, 05:44:54 PMyea thats why he holds the ball forever
Most of the plays that made people think Wentz is a great QB are examples of him holding onto the ball longer than any sane QB would.

He got dinged? I missed that but I can't say I'm surprised because he was always fragile for a big back, even at Notre Dame. It was never "Adams is hurt??" It was "Adams is hurt...Again?" Kind of the way Dallas fans react when Sean Lee is injured.

This defense is so bad.
They are down into the De'Vante Bausby part of the roster. Kinda shocked they haven't given up 30 in this half.
They'd actually be better on defense if they just tackled receivers while the ball was in the air. Unfortunately, that would require them to be near the receivers when the ball is in the air.
unreal throw by brees...you knew he would do this
punt on 4th and inches
punt on 4th and 4 on the + side
deep drop on 3rd and short
punt on 4th and near midfield
doug.

He's getting better. They ran the ball a bunch of times instead of forcing screens for an entire quarter.
Clement could've let that bounce at the 1 and roll out the endzone but, par for the course.
Also the eagles need to lead the league in ST penalties.
That's the first time I've seen someone have to hold the ball on a kickoff in a dome.
Gotta get Ertz those stat padders.

I thought that too but you gotta be careful about it not being recovered by the Saints.
Lane Johnson got beat bad, so what's his response? Bear hug a different guy from behind.

His ankle is never fully right. Just in this game he was limping around and getting it taped up.
hoping chandon sullivan has a better half
lotta promise there
Most yards my Saints in first half this season.
Can't blame this on Schwartz. Frosh team secondary, linebackers that stink, whatcha gonna do?
Oh and we have Rasul!!
Quote from: Don Ho on November 18, 2018, 06:13:49 PM

Stop watching, probably.
Yeah, farg it. I've seen enough gore today already.
Might at well let Foles go out there and take the hits.

Totally agree, Ginger playing like complete ass
this is worse than anyone couldve expected and nobody expected it to be good
In Uncle Don's 46 years of watching the birds I can't remeber the last time I channel surfed during an Eagles game.
Not going to this game is one of the best decisions I've made. Now I can go down to NO sometime 4-5 months from now and hopefully my friends down there will have forgotten that this happened.
I love how all the talking heads have been using the excuse "well all these teams are fired up now and bringing their best when they play the Current Super Bowl champs".
And the Saints broke out this Smith dude who had 12 catches coming into today.
Rams rumored to be unveiling Joe the Plumbe when birds come to town.
Well....at least they still have a shot at the division.
Doug is Mike McCarthy
Why punt? Afraid of being embarrassed? A little too late for that.
saints -9 was the lock of locks

They got smoked super bad by Manning's Colts, that was they last time I remember them not even showing up when they were supposed to be good and turned it off. Even then, I waited until the fourth quarter to turn it off.
I'm glad I felt bad about turning the game off and turned it back on to see a 38 yard td on 4th and long.
This is the new normal.
could use some ertz garbage time

Got to showcase your best player.
It's pissing me off that I'm not pissed off. Hhhhmmm.
Felt the same way last Sunday night. Guess after waiting almost 50 years for a championship I just don't give a shtein.
Kelce banged up? That's a first.
remember when the eagles won the super bowl
Either Wentz is a moron or Godert was in another solar system.
Thank God this is over.
Most points, 41, given up by a defending Super Bowl champ

Exactly how I felt. I've been wanting to watch the movie "Annihilation" for a while now and never got around to it. After watching that shtein for theee quarters, I said farg this and fired it up. It was better than watching that humiliation.
It's us. We're the fairweather fans now. Feels good, honestly.
