This'll be the game where the Lions don't Lion and come out slinging.

Top 5 movie scene ever.
:yay :yay
lions @ eagles
95 - playoff blowout
96 - chris t jones 9-121-1
98 - fg fest
07 - blowout with the yellow barf jerseys
12 - blown 20-6 lead
13 - snow bowl
its generally been...something
the lions +225 money line is preposterous
they have a better than 50/50 chance to win this game and as the rosters stand right now they are the better team
the line is only down to 6 which is just beyond my ability to understand things
my man has it at 6.5...it opened at 7 and my dumb ass didnt take it cause im not in tune with the nfl like that but 6/6.5 is still a dream
Tell us more about how you're betting against the Eagles.
2-0 this year doing it
lets keep the train rooooooollllllin....
A JV High School receiving corps with a half an ounce of wits could eat this secondary up. Linebacking corps sucks so its up to busted toe, mr. encroachment, and friends to do something. You know all that stuff they addressed in the offseason.
I don't recall Wentz drawing many people offsides, so just how bad are the Lions on defense?
Nevermind, that pass explained it.
3 points! Winners!
Meh
Red zone sucked and didn't like that pass to Mack
Not as good a start as I would have liked, but it'll do. I sure hope the defense doesn't let Stafford lob his way down the field for a TD on this drive.
Hey, this week it'll be the special teams that lets up awful big plays! Improvement?
Lmaoooooooooo
farg off STs

I shouldn't have taken that monkey's paw from the antiques store.
Who the farg is number 36? he should be castrated on site what a weak ass effort
Smart defense by lions double-team Ertz and let these other scabs try beat you
Damn you Doug get that farging ball in Howard's hands
Howard's never going to get more carries if he doesn't allow them to have more second and third downs.
But hey let's keep Howard mothballed!
How are you gonna get pushed back with six offensive linemen?
Nice run by Ginger but lions linebackers are so much better than what the Eagles put out there
Gee, I wonder if they'll go for a QB sneak.
It's seriously like 20% of the crowd wearing Kelly Green. It's time to retire this teal stuff.

It's the team's fault for giving some scrub Westbrook's number.
I love a sarcastic cheer on a kickoff.
God damn does Darby suck or what?
Matt Stafford, well known for his wiley elusiveness.
Barnett injury, awesome.
Chris Long, answer the phone.
This defense may just suck.

This defense may just suck.
What do you mean a defense with six guys who probably don't start on most teams might suck?
One thing is for sure there is no worse back seven in football I can think of. The secondary is a travesty and they basically have no linebackers
Killer offsides penalty
Moron
It just isn't an Eagles game without Seumalo standing around looking lost.
That wasn't OPI. Being held and that happens every play.
What a weak call.
Quote from: General_Failure on September 22, 2019, 01:48:56 PM
What a weak callpush.
I agree.
And it seems that Agholor circa 2017 is back permanently.
Peters hurt?
Awful call on the offense of interference.
Nice to see Agholor coming full circle in his career.
Jason Peters enjoy Canton.
Can't wait to see Nelson looking lost and confused on Thursday night.
The lack of pass rush really compliments the lack of pass coverage.
Wait, was that an actual stop by the defense?
(https://media0.giphy.com/media/46itMIe0bkQeY/giphy.gif)
By the end of this game, the title may literally be true.
Dillard down. Peters out.
GODMANNIT
Pull the fire alarm, we need Danny Watkins to save us.
Ertz has gone full Chad Lewis.
Never let anyone but Sproles carry the ball again.
Hey Doug, a little advice, Jordan Howard
Cut Sanders.
Hey Doug, a little advise, Jordon Howard
This isn't going well.
And Doug may never run again.
If that doesn't convince Doug to feed Howard, nothing will.
They deserve to lose.
Go on big man, flex on the one stop you've made in a game where you're about to let up 21 in the first half.
Um, Douglas, you may want to wait a bit and win before dancing.
Not sure I can get super mad at Sanders there because it's not like he was holding it away from his body or in a position where he could get his other hand on the ball...just falling to the ground and the defender got a clean punch on the ball. I guess I'll say hold the ball tighter/work on your hand strength, Miles.
Good stop by the D
Douglas lucky he didn't get called for PI on his left arm being wrapped around Hockenberry
Detroit is gutless for not going for it on 4th down.
Jason peters is feeling sick? Welcome to our world
Sanders is a known fumbler
But yet they keep Howard sitting down
Injuries. Flags. zesty calls. zesty performances.
How in the hell did they miss that facemask?
Wtf?????
Ertz was so pissed off about the facemask, he actually broke a tackle.
We're witnessing history here. This is the first time the refs have ever been in the bag for the Detroit Lions.
Crowd needs to keep up the pressure on the refs. More of those chants, please. Let the teevee audience and Park Ave hear "farg the refs" all day long.
I would've liked to have seen Doug a little more psychotic on that missed face mask, my god there's never been a more obvious violation in the history of the league. He should've been all up the official's ass.

Exactly, weak ass effort by the rookie TE resulted in no TD
Agholor never had control.
On the bright side, Wentz just made the tackle of the game. Maybe he can coach up the defense a bit.
You can cut Agholor now.
This team is falling apart in front of us.
This is a farging joke
Awful
Simply incredible.
Thank God they didn't lock him up, get him the farg out of here
So bad
At this point I don't know if Agholor is bad or just lazy, but he definitely shouldn't have a job in the NFL.
If Foles was still here, these other players wouldn't be farging up so badly. It's all Wentz' fault.
Peters and Brooks got in his face on the sideline

Nobody wants a dong on the shoulder, whether it's Charles Haley jacking off in the meeting room or Foles trying to cheer you up.
Look at these iceholes, thinking they're getting the ball back. What are you gonna do, give it to the Lions a third time?
Let's start the Greg Ward era now
Quote from: Don Ho on September 22, 2019, 02:23:13 PM

I'd settle for current day Greg Lewis.
The second half Eagles better show up this week. Hopefully with Agholor's head on a pike.
Hell, I'd take Greg Brady.

Good God Miami was driving to take the lead and Kenyon Drake fumbled near the goal line
I've been flipping around NFL ticket all morning and let me tell you all something the officiating in this league is absolutely pathetic
free money yo
Darby has been benched it seems
Have Zak Brown or Nigel Bradham done a damn thing this season?
You literally just made those names up.
What a joke this defense is. Even when everything goes right, they get it wrong.
Well Bradham looked pretty good standing there totally confused and lost breaking up the play
If Detroit gets this call, I'm about done with this game...
The happiest guy in the stadium is IGY.

Hooray, they got a stop.
Mack Hollins and Zach Ertz, easily confused for each other.
4d Chess by Wentz, tossing up a freebie to cause a cramp.
Trash
Come the farg on with these calls.
This shtein is completely laughable. There is no way this team shouldn't be destroying Detroit.

No pass rush whatsoever

Of all people Vinny Curry gets the pressure

Not for a while, the offensive line seems to be doing better with Peters out.
Dude always looks so quick and fast and great after the catch...but he needs to make the catch for any of that to happen
Nice.
Told you guys he was good
Embarrassing for the Lions there.
How about just one stop, defense?
No, huh?
I'm so sick of this farging secondary complete garbage
Bad play by Preston Brown. Also, who is Preston Brown?
Whatever everyone thought Sidney Jones was gonna be, he isn't.
shtein ass farging game
Awesome response.
Booooooo
Damn right the boos are warranted
2 coverage sacks and a double-covered drop 7 yards short of the line to gain.
the new normal
All-22 showed WR wide open 20 yards downfield on 2nd down. Just wrong to say no one was open.

Another fraud
Did Spielman show up 90 seconds before kickoff? Preston Brown? Sawmilo?
Did they all bet on the Lions or something?
Hey, Goeddert is fitting in with the rest of the receivers just fine!
Sanders has a to much Shady in him. Stop farging dancing. he was gone
This is so farging bad I'm actually looking forward to the Phillies game tonight
Hahahahahaha Goedert farging hell
Bailed out thank god
So two firsts for Jalen Ramsey, you say?

Yes and do it by 4:30 EST
So far this game looks exactly like what the 2019 Eagles have been versus what the 2019 Lions have been.
Three firsts for Ramsey, final offer.
Who the farg is Spence?
Why is Jones playing 12 yards off the WR?

Go kidnap Shad Khan until he agrees
The coverage schemes blow
Matthew "Donovan McNabb" Stafford.
I'm done complaining about Sydney Jones and the rest of this horse shtein secondary. Marvin Jones was wide open.
Slow, weak ass pass rush too.
That Falk guy on the Jets could pass all day on this Eagles team.
Which team is going to hire Jim Schwartz to be their HC in the offseason? XFL team, I mean.
I started typing before the snap but totally 100% disagree with this call
Goddamnit Goddamnit
I don't blame Wentz for not trusting these receivers, either.
Holy shtein Doug. Brutal
Look I know they're short today but come on. They should have smoked this team. At what point does a team start looking at itself and say we ain't that good.
They aren't very good

I think we've been doing that most of today.
Yes!!
Great camerawork you idiots
Wtf?
Not that they deserve to win, but I'm glad this game has less of a chance of going to overtime. I'm hungry and need to get dinner started.
How's this crowd you think they'd be going nuts but like the rest of us they have no faith in this farging team
Lions stuff happening.
Can a fargING receiver actually catch the ball?
Nice block by the veteran Jenkins there Jesus Christ
Mack Hollins isn't good, but c'mon. Just send him down the field and try to hit him in stride.
Sigh. I've never seen so many OPI
This is unfarging believable
That was the perfect time to throw to a guy you haven't targeted once all season.
Yeah where I come from that's called a farging drop
Quote from: Munson on September 22, 2019, 04:07:51 PM
Sigh. I've never seen so many OPI
I was thinking the same thing. Between the drops, the OPIs and Agholor just dropping a fumble...
Well maybe if your two starting wide receivers weren't made out of papier-mâché you'd have something here
One of those days when I hate myself for caring about this idiotic team. farg my life.
Garbage.
As bad as every phase of this team has been, both this week and last week could have been Ws without drops by crap WRs.
Unreal.
Seven drops.
They should've won this game.
Hello 1-3 how you doin?
2 nfc losses
schedule gets much tougher
can't trust the run, can't make a catch, can't cover, can't get to the QB
none of the 2017 dominance on display
13 games left, but they're done
I've been watching football for a very long time and I've never seen so many dropped passes in clutch time like I did today and these farging offensive pass interference calls!
No sacks today

Sproles OPI was actually smart. Was gonna be a game ending play without it (a clean reception was not happening), and there's always a chance you get away with it.

The defense didn't get to the quarterback, either.

I'm predicting 14-2. Who's with me?
The wildcard teams were coming out of the West anyway, but man. They're playing like a 6-10 team.

Flip it, and you're probably right in how they look NOW.
They'll probably end up better than they look right now. But it's becoming obvious that even if Jackson and Jeffrey come back, this defense is missing something. And, sadly, it's more than one CB can fix.

Well they did say Peters wasn't feeling well
The inability to come through on normal plays killed them. The clutch plays/catches killed them too but just the normal stuff killed them. Game over.
you can look at the drops, lack of pass rush, kick return, two fumbles, etc
but carson has had 2 drives to win games the last 2 weeks and didnt get it done on either. this is the thing that separates the men from the boys. and ol carse is coming up small.

I'm curious as to how you assign blame when his passes were dropped that would've won the games
not at all blaming carson. theres a 100 reasons they lost.
just saying. good qbs win games in those spots. they find ways. he didnt.
I would say that as a QB, drilling your WR in the hands in the end zone during the final minute is pretty close to an ideal outcome.

Yeah no
Wentz has been missing throws this year, and maybe trying to get some of his receivers killed, but when the game is on the line and the ball hits your hands maybe you should catch it.
I don't have any faith in Carson with the game on the line. Warranted or not, I just don't. 4th and long he throws to a covered Agholor. 4th and 5 he throws a jump ball to a 5'6 RB when Agholor was wide open 20 yards downfield.
Now, this is two weeks in a row he made game winning deep passes which were dropped, and I concede I'm probably being irrational, but he seems panicky late to me and either throws checkdowns or 50 yard jump balls. I'm waiting for the GWD filled with 10-20 yard passes.
Carson wasn't the problem today. And he's a good qb, and the above is probably dumb, but it's how I feel when the eagles get the ball with 2 mins left needing a drive.
I'll reserve judgement on Wentz until mid season
They need a 3rd down edge rusher bad. As good as Schwartz was at disguising his blitzes last week (although I think it was really the amount that took the Falcons off guard more so than the schemes) they were god awful this week. Their overloads were shooting the same gaps at times
Tackling was absolutely horrendous
Way too many miscues in coverage
Sanders is a project running back. He would have been fine as a 4th round pick but he's not polished enough to be taken in the 2nd. He doesn't read blocks and he's not big/fast/quick enough to rely on his talent at this point.
Not much else to be said, sloppy game.
I truly believe they can beat the Packers in Lambeau if they cut down on the stupidity
That's a lot of stupidity to cut down on.
- Wentz needs to see the play better... faster... whatever it is, it needs to be improved.
- The defense, at all levels, has been mediocre at best.
- The coaching decisions have been rather predictable.
- Those drops and turnovers.
Unfortunately, I think they enter my three-day weekend (Shalom, Todd!) at 1-3.
Nick Foles wouldn't have let this shtein happen.
its actually pretty amazing they scored as many pts as they did with the trash they were running out there at the skill positions
as predicted in the summer the pass rush will be/is the downfall of the team
Cox needs to step it up
Barnett too
Barnett is slowly morphing into "one of those picks". Undersized, injured, bonehead penalties, OK player not great.
He's always been that, Don.
Also - for some reason I rewatched that slop again. Couldn't sleep so why not, right? That was as ugly a self-inflicted loss as I can remember from this squad. Why does it seem that every time the Eagles score the defense has to immediately give one right back? I mean I know they don't but it just feels that way.
Whatever, though. Being a Philly fan is just farging exhausting.
It is exhausting. I'm finally headed to bed and after listening to the talking heads and watching replays why is Jordon Howard not the feature back. Sanders will hopefully one day soon become a good running back but he was so slow to hit a lot of the holes that they did create for him then you see Howard carrying people 3, 4, 5 yards as he's powering his way forward. Puzzling.
I still can't get over there the three offensive pass interference calls and all the drops. Absolutely mind boggling and disturbing.
It was just an ugly game all around. It's ironic that it came against Stafford, though. Wentz has that sort of career trajectory staring him in the face right now unless he learns to perform when it matters most. That's two straight where he's had the ball in his hands with a chance to win it and come up empty.
I'm not panicking but...
you can yell about the pass rush (it sucks!) but the defense as a whole gave up 20 points and 6 were off turnovers. SU they gave up 2 touchdowns. this is not bad at all in 2019 nfl.
the eagles are paying carson wentz to be a franchise qb, not lose at home to matthew farging stafford. donovan lost playoff games at home to brad johnson and jake delhomme. could we be in for another decade of this crap.
Donovan was a bitch. Wentz is a loony bible thumper but I don't get the victim vibe from him whatsoever. He had three guys to throw to yesterday who are at best fourth receivers on a good team. You can't win with that garbage.
You can steal a game here or there but you just can't be great. He's got the physical tools but does he have them between his ears? Time will tell.
not even sure why wentz is being mentioned here. he's way down the list of reasons why they lost. he missed a few open guys but had a pretty good game overall. there was one play i remember in the 4th quarter where the lions only rushed three guys, and yet somehow the entire eagles line was just standing around while 2 of the 3 lions took carson down.

Wasn't there a play last week they only had 10 men out there for?
After week 3 in 2011, Juan Castillo's defense had 11 sacks, 2 interceptions, and a fumble recovery.
Cue Rimshot
Oh and what's a sack again?
