Bruce Boudreau Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 On 2018-09-24 at 5:40 AM, c00kies said: Matthews was a good pickup because he knows the system and would be ready for the quick turnaround. Agholor is our best threat from a non tight end, but we do lack that explosiveness from our other receivers. Wentz did alright in his return, but he did make that one awful read. I miss just handing the ball off to Blount too. The Eagles offensively don't really have big name star players they rely on a spread the wealth attack similar to the Patriots where 1 week they could have over 100 yards rushing and the next have over 300 yards passing. They really use as much of their personnel as possible so the other trlram can't key on just 1 guy and wreck the whole gameplan. I do like Dallas Goedert stepping up. He is still a rookie whatever he does should be a bonus and not fully expected each week yet. Also I am a little bit confused due to the Eagles need for more speed at wr,with Hollins and Wallace out long term, and to take some pressure off Agholor.... Why don't they audition a guy like Shelton Gibson who showed some good speed vs the Patriots in the preseason game and had a big kickoff return and also had a 30 plus yard catch downfield? IIRC.. I hope Howie Roseman is working the phones to try to get a WR with some speed before the trade deadline to take the top off the defence and push back the safeties so the Eagles can dominate the middle of the field. With Clement, Agholor,Ertz, and Goedert, all doing damage over the middle of the field the offence would be tough to stop. Just like they got Jay Ajayi last year maybe they can swing a trade for DeVante Parker who is the #4 on the Dolphins or Robby Anderson on the Jets would be targets. Who would you want the Eagles to get? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would you want the Eagles to get? I would love a speedy target, as that adds to our TE heavy receiving group. I don't have many players in mind. Maclin would be interesting, but I think I'd want someone else. In a trade, I wouldn't give up much more than a 4th, and would probably prefer to trade a 5th. I feel like players lost in depth are good choices, even if it's a bit risky. I feel like Smith played a good role last year, as someone that can spread the field a bit, even if he was a bit underwhelming. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offense needs a makeover though and I’m not sure how we will do that without any changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard about that at all Just remember last time pats lost two games in September they won the ....... wait.......... you guessed it.... Spoiler Super Bowl Was thinking with Allen panning out with the Bills what teams will be looking for a QB this coming draft? Maybe the Pats will get their choice of QB's, more so if they keep losing, since the NFL draft is all about drafting on team needs as oppose to best player available.

Dak is below average. PFF has the Dallas oline ranked 11th so that's definitely not the issue. Offense is and should be all Zeke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apple Juice Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 If Gordon can get in this week it'll at least open the playbook a bit more. Kinda hard to win when you only dress 3 receivers for the entire game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone was expecting a quick spike but no idea what the OC and Cousins were thinking? Spiking the clock would have given them two plays instead of the FG that they decided to take because of lack of clock awareness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rams offence reminds me of the "Greatest Show on Turf" team (Warner, Bruce, Holt, Faulk) they had several years ago. Could possibly see a Rams vs Chiefs Superbowl, that would be fun to watch.
