3-0, Birds, after Elliott kicks a FG

 

[Relayer]

Hurts underthrows Smith, should have been a TD. Not sure of the play calling from the 10.

yeah, the play calling from 1st & goal was underwhelming.

Below is the under thrown ball

 

[WestSideLion]

This offense is stagnant and has the look of trouble. They did zip on that drive besides the underthrown deep pass that was completed.

 

[WestSideLion]

Nice first series on defense. I think our DTs be their interior OL will be a favorable matchup all game.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

If Covey is going to fumble on PRs, he's not going to be on the team for long. Fortunately, the Birds recovered his fumble

I thought for sure on 3 n goal it was the wheel route to the rb

 

[WestSideLion]

The Eagles new OC is going to get fired in season the way this is going.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

good PR by the Vikings, but a fumble at the end and the Birds (Morrow) recover!!!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

3 straight nice runs by RB Smith, resulting in 2 first downs for the Birds

 

[WestSideLion]

Followed by a sack, failed TE screen and a 3rd and 15.

Yea we better quit that

 

[WestSideLion]

And a Hurts interception. Sigh. This offense just looks horrific.

N a pick

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Hurts throws an INT on 3rd & 16. smh

 

[s1uggo72]

And a Hurts interception. Sigh. This offense just looks horrific.

Not really just keep running the ball until they stop it

 

[troutrus]

Hurts looks frustrated. Forcing things. Gotta settle down.

 

[WestSideLion]

The play calls are a big part of what looks horrific. This OC is a problem.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

lol, Vikings fumble on a run on their 1st play after the INT.

Avonte Maddox causes it by punching the ball as the RB is being tackled.

the crowd is not happy with the O, as the boo-birds made their presence known on the Birds's play after the fumble recovery

 

[WestSideLion]

This is atrocious.

 

[WestSideLion]

Rightly so. Boo away. This is a 5-win product we are seeing.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Elliott misses a 55-yard FG, so it's 3-0, Birds, with 42 sec left in the 1st qtr

Just run normal run plays. Pound it inside zone outside zone. Again n again w the RBs. I think he forced the pull on first down
