3 & out by the Birds' O, and the fans let them know their displeasure (probably more on the check down pass that had no chance of picking up the 1st)

I have smith and brown today for fantasy but not swift. Took him out because they keep putting in gainwell and Scott.

Swift seems to be very good but they don’t play him enough .

Cardinals march down the field and kick a FG, to take a 0-3 lead. (2nd longest scoring drive of the season by the Cardinals)

About the only good play on D was the below by Williams (would have been better if the Birds had recovered the fumble):

Milton Williams forces a fumble and instead of trying to recover, he’s jumping up and celebrating before the play is over. Moron.

With any awareness whatsoever, he could’ve just laid on Murray, and Eagles would have recovered that ball.

Cards are the worst team in the league against the run, so Swift may have been a good play.

Then again, it's the Birds, and nobody can figure out what they are doing on O, including their splits between Swift and Gainwell.

Would not have guessed Swift just went over 1,000 rushing yards in his career. It feels as though he’s tangibly underused in this offense.

Pick 6 aside, Arizona is executing a winning game plan to perfection. Eagles have had two first half possessions. One was a 3 and out.

pretty much. Birds are playing like crap, with the exception of the Pick 6 and the drive that ended with their lone offensive TD.

Good stop there and held them to a FG. Keep them kicking. Pressure is now on the offense. They have to score with limited possessions.

Across the entire country, I wonder how many people had Julio Jones on their fantasy team this week. ;)

So in the first half the Eagles have had 3 drives?
A 3- out
TD drive to Julio
2 min drive to Julio again
And that’s it?

And here I posted a few weeks ago that part of the issue I had with Brown was his lack of speed. 🤷‍♂️

Cards taking the opening drive of the 2nd half down the field, and score a TD.

With the PAT, it's 21-13, Birds, with 8:42 left in the 3rd qtr
