Week 5 Eagles vs. Rams

[ice grillin you]

it really isn't.....not saying its dallas' line or anything....but it has little to do with their lack of offensive efficiency

[ice grillin you]

Two biggest potential mismatches are Ertz and Sproles on safeties and LBs.  Really don't get force feeding to WRs at the expense of positive and legit mismatches.

problem is they arent that big of a mismatch when you don't have to respect the outside or for that matter the running game....ertz would be a lot more effective if the eagles could run play action...but you cant run play action when you cant run

Ok yeah constant pressure and no solid pocket is a-ok for football.

Maybe if he had more time or they ya know opened some running lanes the junior varsity WRs can make some plays?

I don't disagree with that but I'd rather get Sproles in the slot or Ertz on a safety than cooper anywhere and they've gone away from that.  Sproles has consistently produced this year.  I really don't understand why he's not lined up in the slot more.

stop making excuses for foles...hes not any good...hes had more than enough time to throw the ball all year

the running game they deserve criticism for sure....but shady aint shady either

[PhillyPhreak54]

Who is making excuses?

Missed what I said about Foles didn't ya?

Saying the OL sucks, which is well documented, is not making excuses. It's stating fact. A fact that you cited as a key to success this year when you mentioned now healthy they were last year. So they're not healthy and they're playing with scrubs and that's a fact.

Worst part of Cowboys being decent this year is all the frauds out at the bar.  Dude next to me was wearing a Cowboys jersey and Orioles hat.  Can't think of a better image of a Cowboys fan than that.  Gfy

ertz isn't jimmy graham...you cant just wish him on a safety and think hes gonna get open or make a play...hes a solid guy but he needs to be freed...he isn't a playmaker....

sproles i agree more with but when you put him in the slot the defense just puts a safety over the top of him cause i mean what else does a safety have to do against the eagles but come up and either double a potential mismatch or stop the run....without pimp theres nothing deep they ever have to worry about

I love how shady plays but Sproles needs more carries right now.  Runs more N/S and takes what he can get.  Mccoy is frustrated and tries to get to many big plays right now and it isn't working.

the offensive line hasn't sucked in pass protect....you said foles needs more time and hell make plays...thats an excuse....foles is average at best and most likely worse than that...league is on him and chip

[PhillyPhreak54]

Foles needs a clean pocket and time for people to get open. He is not going to throw them open which we have talked about. Therefore he needs;

Stout pass protection
Good running game
Innovative coaching and play calling

He's getting none of that.

No excuses. Keys for him to succeed for being what he is

And I agree about Sproles. He hits the hole quick and he's so small that he's about to power through or blow past people.

[General_Failure]

Time or no time, Foles is making awful throws. I think. I can't be 100% sure, since good streams are getting harder to find every week.

lets also give him the no blitz pro bowl rules and a red jersey so he cant get hit

[General_Failure]

Also, McCoy may just need to swallow his pride and take the measly 3 yard runs he would be getting if he wasn't trying to Barry Sanders on every play.

[ice grillin you]

that's his game....he cant or shouldn't be expected to change now...problem is he cant run by or away from anyone this year...just doesn't have that extra gear he did last year due to wear and tear
