Heard this stat on Sports Final: The Eagles have the worst red zone D in the league, giving up a TD 75% of the time.

Holy shtein that's ridiculously bad, maybe even historically

Holy shtein is right!  TD 75% of the time?  Real playoff worthy.

Point & Laugh at the Eagles Defense?

The man. The myth. The legend.

This defense has been pretty bad pretty much all year sans the Jax game. And they've been terrible in the 2nd half, especially the 4th quarter.  Aside from Asante, there isn't a single playmaker on this defense and he's only good for a pick but not much else. The front 4 is playing fairly well but that's about it.

Is it safe to say Sean Mcdermott's time is up? Please can we get a legit D coordinator, please.

I hate Stewart Bradley. Really all I see him doing is getting blocked, missing tackles or running for his life trying to catch TE's.

I think he is great for the run defense and abhorrently awful for the pass defense.  Classic one-dimensional LB.  I would love to see the Eagles upgrade.

Really? Great? I can't recall that many plays being made by him this year.

I can't recall many teams running the ball particularly well against the Eagles this year either.

Let's just say he's OK at run defense and piss-poor-stab-yourself-in-the-eyes awful at pass defense, and call it a day.... Fair?

Look at the box score.  127 year old Brian Urlacher had 10 tackles & Bradley had 5 (which I thought was generous, actually).

He's awful and has been all year.

Is there a more useless stat in all of sports than tackles?
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?
