Bruce Boudreau Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 3 hours ago, Hortankin said: I think the Eagles are being over looked but maybe that's just my bias kicking in. We have a top 5 Oline and D line and we seen what both could do last year. Wentz killed it last year with Johnson in the lineup until he got suspended, if we have him all year and Wentz has that time with Jeffrey, Ertz, Smith, and and improved agholor than he is going to turn heads. Our D line was solid under shwartz last year, just imagine how good we are going to be with the additions of Jernigan and Barnett.. I don't think the Giants have the Oline to counter that. Call me crazy but this is how I see it shaking up... Eagles 13-3 Giants 10-6 Cowboy 10-6 Redskins 6-10 We go 5-1 against the division I like your optimism but that is a little rich for me quite honestly. I don't like the Eagles corners at all and in a division stacked with great wide receivers that is very concerning. Who knows how good Rasul Douglas will be and how much he plays, Jalen Mills too, and then you have Patrick Robinson a 30 year old former first round bust just trying to keep his career going with his third team in like 5 years. Sidney Jones might be redshirted the whole year. They need a surprise guy like Aaron Grymes or Myles White to come in from the CFL and be solid at CB to have a chance at that record. Wentz also has to be much improved this year and show progress or else nothing else will matter. Eagles would have to be incredibly lucky to stay healthy to have that record or another team run into injury and suspensions like the Cowboys and Redskins for that to happen. Then again Ezekiel Elliot could miss the first 4 games of the season... which could affect the balance of power early on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly if Sidney Jones does start playing this year we may become super bowl favorites by the time the playoffs get here. I'm super excited for this football season.

ReggieBush Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 The Eagles are a good team and will make the playoffs in my opinion. Are they better than the Giants? No way. I do think they are better than the Cowboys because the Boys have a poor defense. I see the NFC East looking like this next year 1st- Giants 11-5 2nd- Eagles 10-6 3rd- Skins 8-8 4th- Cowboys 7-9 Cowboys have an amazing Oline and a freaking good Tailback. I don't trust Dez to stay healthy, and their defense doesnt impress me. They are asking Taco to come in and be a difference maker every week and I don't see that happening. He had 1 outstanding game his entire career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cincy is one of my favourite teams in AFC. Dalton, Green and now Ross are going to have one of the most dynamic offenses in the league. Still love my Seahawks though! But the Bengals are one of those teams you have to keep an eye on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see the matchup game in the division against the Giant's passing game..Beckham,Marshall,Sharpe and the rookie Engram down the middle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand why though they have short careers and take lots of punishment each down. Plus you can always draft or sign a couple of cheap RBS fresh out of college if you don't want to have to spend on a "name" guy. I'm already licking my chops looking at next year's RB class. Some real good power Rbs. Saquon Barkley, Nick Chubb, Royce Freeman... If Eagles could get one and another young wr for Wentz they could challenge the big boys in the NFC.

I heard one of Chubb's strengths is hitting the hole hard and squeezing in to tight spaces. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmen81 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 (edited) Dazn.com is coming to Canada and will have NFL game pass, sunday ticket, red zone and NFL Network and all it will cost is $20/month or $150 for the year. That's such a great deal compared to the $300+ I paid last year. Edited July 21, 2017 by gmen81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, I wasn't happy with the quality from the streaming only game and my connection definitely wasn't the problem. Probably going to pay for Sunday ticket again this year and wait for feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be cheaper to opt for $20 per month or $150 a year I wonder.. and is that a whole calendar year or just the football season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on if you'd include February as a whole month and preseason, $20 x 7 months would equal out to be $140, so $20/month would probably be the best way.

By February, it'll be the Super Bowl and playoffs and those would be nationally broadcasted anyways... Maybe I'll do the 16 weeks of football which equates to $80 total (4 months) and come playoff time, it'll be nationally broadcasted anyways so I'll cancel then? EDIT: one month free for new customers so that ends up at $60 for 4 months.. Not bad I'd say Edited July 28, 2017 by Apple Juice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
