I actually saw it last night or early this morning when I typed it but I was so tired it didn't fully register.
Stupid spell check doesn't work when you stick hyphens in between the letters. That's worthless.

Isn't there a rule against pointing out other peoples misspellings?😆

Just Kidding... though the rules here have seemed to be a lot more reasonable than most/all other sites.

We shit ourselves v Seattle. That doesn't mean we're not as good as they are.

And the D is an experiment. It's a new theory based upon the rule changes to emphasize passing offense and increase big plays and scoring. I've personally bitched about Capers and his lack of innovation for a long time, so I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt here. You have to admit they're playing better.

This is not an elite team. Circumstances may have put them in that conversation due to losses by other teams, but let's not delude ourselves.

Did we all see that Seattle game?

Detroit?

MAYBE we get hot at the end a get a shot. We won a Superbowl that way, so let's see.

Conversely, do not be at all surprised if we get our clocks cleaned in New Orleans this Sunday. Odds are, we do.

Our defense is extremely suspect, imo, for example.

I think we overreact too much week to week. Good teams lose to lesser teams all the time. It happens every week in the NFL. Seattle lost to the Rams for fuck's sake.

I will only speak for myself. Of course I over-react. It is not my fault. These dumb-asses running MY team have NO fucking clue with what to do in a certain time and circumstance in a football game, yet remain so highly paid and admired.

I should be running this franchise. Everyone gets minimum wage for this game. 😆 I think I'm funny, not as funny as anyone that bought that concept that the pack was staking a claim amongst the NFL elite.

We do have homers here.

It's hard to read TOO much into the game. It seemed that once Aaron Rodgers got injured, the entire game changed. The Green Bay Packers by and large are Aaron Rodgers. If something is wrong with him, this team is rarely going to win, especially against a top quarterback. This defense is not going to carry the Packers and haven't since 2010, really. An exception here and there doesn't change the overall trend, either. Dom Capers just can't stack up against good quarterbacks. Not many can, but he certainly cannot.

Giving the Saints short field twice didn't help matters either. I am not blasting the calls because I liked the guts it took. Sometimes that works, sometimes it doesn't. If they had worked, the same folks bashing McCarthy would be praising his brilliance.

No big disappointment though. We all knew we were the better team, but we also all knew we'd go down there and shit ourselves. Set your watch by it.

However, what you said about tackling was spot on. Yesterday was not a banner day for Davon House or HaHa.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
