daniel sucks and all but its the bucs 1st team defense and the eagles o line  is putrid outside of the starting 5, which will likely never play a snap together

also they should never ever have a preseason game on a work night at 7....just a god damn dumb idea to invite 50k+ people to a party at rush hour

Yes Smith played well, albeit the Scrub Bowl he did play well.

And agree with Romey, I was a little worried about Wentz in there with the Pop Warner squad.

Post by: Sgt PSN on August 12, 2016, 01:18:14 PM
Thought Wentz looked decent. His pick was awful, but other than that he looked very comfortable and unfazed by a faster game. He did a good job recovering the low snap and getting rid of the ball without taking a sack or penalty. Also did a nice job avoiding pressure on a 3rd down play when the o- line stayed in their stance after the snap and made a nice sideline throw on the run.  Way too early to make any real determination, but he had a quality  first showing.

this is pretty on point....he looked like a rookie qb at various points but had a few instinct and athletic plays that lead you believe there are some bigger things on the way for him

they could help him out by, you know, giving him someone to throw to and a halfway decent line but one thing at a time

Solid Sopranos pull there.

My thoughts...after getting chased off Romey's lawn;

Bradford isn't going to throw the ball downfield at all.

Pederson isn't gonna call downfield plays. It's gonna be like Andy's first several years where it's nothing but dink and dunk shtein.

They're going to have a top ten defense

Means is balling. Grymes had a nice pick. Carroll had a really good game. So did Aziz Shttu. Barbre didn't have his name called and Seumalo looked ok at times.

The receivers are tough to watch. DGB better be for real. Buckle up son.

Joe Walked tore his ACL which sucks bc the depth was already thin. More leverage for Tulloch

I think they have a top ten defensive line and safeties. Not convinced by the rest of the defense. Fairly meaningless that they picked off shtein-ass Landry Jones passes four times, but I do read some meaning into Landry Jones being able to move the ball downfield against them a few times.

Would not be shocked if the Eagles had the worst offense in the league, although anywhere between the worst and "average" is a possibility.

The Colts announcer has been calling Scott Tolzien "Tolziel" for the last 10 minutes.

local MA broadcasts are bad enough in the nba and mlb....now try imaging one that does 4 games a year

for these things youre generally pulling guys who live in the city. philly being a real place has talents like graham and mayock so its just easy to pull them. what broadcasting talent lives in indianapolis?

i dont get why bradford gets so much hate

because he was a #1 pick and isnt as good as tom brady? because hes kind of a lame dork? ok, i get it.

but the dude is a solid nfl qb.

I've said this before,  so you can nod off now:

His entire career, his receivers have dropped a lot of passes.  Too many to write it off as bad luck.  Something about his game is off.  It seems to me that he puts passes exactly where they need to be a lot more than McNabb ever did.  And it's not that he's got a weak arm.  I don't know, but whatever it is, I do blame him.

I still found them less annoying than Gruden. The guy called Scott tolzien Scott Toziel about 12 times before he realized his mistake.

Vince Curry is my favorite.  He called Smallwood Huff a couple of times as well.  The worst part was "we" instead of "they" and the PBP idiot repeatedly referring to Luck as Andrew.  Dude, even if that's your farging son, you still call him Luck.  Anything other than that is just bush league.

with the possible exception of kendricks punching jim schwartz, i cant think of a single reason to watch this game

this bethel thompson person is playing the 2nd half...whoever paid 17 bucks a pop for my tickets paid 17 dollars too many

It's Eagles football, guys on the bubble, I'll watch the first half.

Either Graham or Mayock said Pat Kirwan said there's buzz around the league the Vikings are interested in trading for Chase Daniel. Let's hope that's true.

Also reported Lane Johnson hasn't been officially suspended yet. The NFL is dragging their feet and the Eagles haven't heard a peep. So who knows, maybe they get lucky somehow.

lane isnt playing tonight, so the team must feel that hes going to be eligible in week 1.

paul turner had some punt return or something, i wasnt watching

Like nearly anything else they said was correct...

Seriously though, Daniel is okay to me. I wouldn't want to pin my hopes on him for more than part of a game, but his role is more than what nonsense he leaves on the field. And there's no way that Pederson would lose his right-hand man in the locker room, unless there was something REALLY good coming in return. And that ain't happenin'.
