Random Eagles Information Still Not Worthy of a New Thread

[Rome]

Jim Johnson is rolling over in his grave at this putrid collection of suck. 

[rjs246]

Anyone remember how good this defense seemed to be at the start of the season? The offense was the thing holding back the team. Remember? REMEMBER?! I remember. Good times.

This team needs a visit from the toss-salad man. Or a rapist-terminator from the future. Or just a set of testicles.

There is talent on defense. Not exceptional talent but enough, in my opinion. The coordinator and the GM provide a zesty scheme and no depth though so three injuries and we're all rooting for EJ Biggers.

[hbionic]

Aren't we doing that already?

[QB Eagles]

I don't really know if there are many teams that would have someone superior to EJ Biggers out there if their top 4 corners (Maxwell, Carroll, Rowe, Shepherd) were out. In general, that would be kind of a stupid contingency to waste money on, especially when your starting wide receivers and offensive linemen stink.

The biggest injury downgrade on defense has been from Hicks to Alonso. Alonso has essentially one positive play on the year.

Who's Shepherd?

[QB Eagles]

The presumptive Eagles starting slot corner who went down with an ACL tear in August.

Who's Shepherd?

Lito

They re-signed him

Chips system works, unfortunately it's working against  his own defense as well.

set aside how good or bad the talent is...the defensive roster is made for a 4-3 defense yet they still insist on forcing these guys into a 3-4 and just hoping it magically works...so as it stands now we really don't know how good some of these guys are cause they are playing so out of position

easy can confirm, and i feel bad steppin on his shoes, but

giants/eagles loser gets  the rams game in london

also eagles now a prime candidate to wind up on hard knocks so long as chip isnt fired

[BigEd76]

All good and you're right on both

Draft update: #11 right now but will fall to #12 if the Giants lose.  Root for New Orleans and Minnesota (better for our SOS), and a St. Louis win would be nice but doesn't matter

[BigEd76]

Turns out the Rams win was better than I thought....they can't catch the Eagles in SOS anymore. Looks like Oakland can't either, so the worst possible pick is #15 if all of the following happen:

Broncos lose vs CIN + Eagles win @ NY + Colts lose vs TEN + Bills lose vs NYJ + Lions win @ CHI + Cards win vs SEA + Bengals lose vs BAL + Chiefs lose vs OAK

Eagles lose at NY, the worst they pick is #11. If the Bucs and/or Saints pull off an upset, it can jump to #9

[General_Failure]

I'd probably be real happy about a decent pick if I knew for sure Chip wasn't going to draft some guy that would have been available in the second or third round.
