No, it's because the players are bieng coached to not catch, throw well, run block, or tackle.

They're being coached to pass block, pass, run routes and catch. Opposing defenses are being coached to sprint in a direct line at our QB since there is no chance that anything other than a pass is even an option.

They're being coached to catch? That's new to me.

Never seen a WR coach work on catching technique?

We have a WR coach?!

Because the taterskins are an overrated group of douchebags and were exposed against the Giants.

Farg the taterskins...I don't believe in karma.

the REAL reason the Eagles lost to Dallas and Denver is because the defense gave up an average of 41 points. No matter how you rationalize it, that's horrendous. They always say they strive to limit opposing offenses to no more than 17 points and both times haven't done their jobs.

Amen. The Eagles under Reid have never been a smazsh mouth control the ball type of offense. Especially, with the addition of TO they have become a quick strike offense who will produce plenty of three and outs. If the D just keeps getting the ball back with decent field position the O will work.

Both sides of the ball are playing terribly. We are 4-3 because we have talent. If you look at most teams in this league, and their offense and defense play this bad they win 1 game. While the defense has been brutal, maybe the game would've been 28-28 if the offense did their job. You never know. I think both sides of the ball share equal blame right now.

there's no excuse for a defense giving up 28 points at the half, no matter what the offense does. Here in Chicago the offense is run by a rookie (4th round i believe) quarterback, but the defense is good enough to at least keep them in the game. If the Bears had the Eagles offense, they'd be incredible.

You're a skins fans, you don't co
And hey, Dallas Troll....good to see you ONLY come to the board when the Eagles lose. Class act, you are.

Skin, you know I have been one of the few that gives credit where it is due. Our payback will be had later for sure.

snorkeling,

I fuel off your and some of your colleagues agony. Actually I have seen some humor on this board. I thought we were bad annointing Barber the next Herschell until I see a fire a coach that has resurrected your team from the ashes of Kotite and Ray Rhodes. You guys keep me entertained. No worries,I got another month of dishing ahead of you snorkeling after we complete our sweep.
