This reminds me of the TN game, but worse. 5-1 still isn't bad, but the OL is bad enough that it will (continue to) lose some games for us.

Well, sometimes you need a kick in the teeth. At least this isn't against a division rival.

Well... after that TD we have to do something on offense and our defense needs to score or return to dominance.
24-21 win is still possible but we need 3TDs in a half in windy conditions.
Odds are against us. Let's see what kind of fight our team has left.

not based on a half, based on 4.5 games and an entire career.

Zero running game, zero pass protection, and zero rest for the defense.

We want Teddy back. At least he's flashy.

Really, we lost this game in the 1st Quarter. two turnovers deep in Philadelphia territory, and we didn't score a single point. Now the defense can't stop Wentz, and we can't move the ball at all.

I hate Philly, Always have. Very few teams I dislike, saints, packers, philly. Hope we never run into philly in a NFL championship Game. They always have our number. Can't remember the last time we beat them

Bradford is not the real problem today. The OL is.

this team has serious deficiencies which we've all known about since the start of the season. You need situational awareness and pocket presence to win close games. Our QB has neither. That doesn't help.

We are 13-9 against the Eagles all time. We actually have a two-game winning streak against them. We beat them in 2013 and 2010.
