Thanks Tom. But I am conflicted this morning. Not about the Eagles game but who to root for Vikings v Cowboys The Vikes need another loss but so do the Cowboys. What to do??

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

Cowboys fell back 1 game, giving the birds a bit of breathing room. Root for the boys.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Reportedly both of the new signees at DT traveled to the game, and could play today

 

[BobPSU92]

I’m intrigued to see what Saturday can come up with in just his second game as a coach.

 

[WVilleLion]

Go Colts!

never root for the 'girls- never

 

[WestSideLion]

This Eagles defense is really struggling right now. It’s like the wheels fell off.

 

[WestSideLion]

7-0 Colts on a 5-min opening drive where they ran it down the Eagles throats.

 

[WestSideLion]

Eagles convert on 3rd and 1, but an obvious hold brings it back and they have to punt. Buckle up, gang. This looks a lot like last week.

 

[WestSideLion]

Eagles D makes a stop on 3rd and 1. Indy inexplicably calls a pass.

Every time they go back to pass they go the Eagles a favors

 

[Eric_M]

That side judge has $$$$$ on Indy.

 

[WestSideLion]

These penalties are killing them. Now 1st and 35 after a promising drive start.

 

[WestSideLion]

Oh, Jalen. How do you take a sack there. SMH. Eagles out of FG range and punting.

 

[s1uggo72]

My why do the Eagles get called for things while the Colts and theWTF can run the ball at will and never get a holding call

 

[s1uggo72]

Btw Will Fries burning his redshirt at RG

 

[WestSideLion]

Finally a holding call on Indy and the Eagles get the stop.

Lane Johnson getting fined

 

[Tom McAndrew]

FG, Birds, 22 yards, makes it 7-3, Colts

 

[WestSideLion]

7-3 Colts. The Eagles with just a poor effort at the goal line. This team seems to be in a fog right now.

Is it regression to the mean? Key injuries? Drinking their own Kool-Aid?

 

[Eric_M]

They are a TE dependent team without a TE.

 

[s1uggo72]

They are a TE dependent team without a TE.

With or without a TE it’s the penalties on O killing them

 

[WestSideLion]

They are a TE dependent team without a TE.

Say more. Goedert was having a nice season but wasn’t putting up Kelce type production.

And I can’t believe Howie would ignore back up TE if it were central to the offense.

 

[Eric_M]

Yurchich calling plays for the Eagles

 

[WestSideLion]

Epic fail after 2nd and 1. Eagles have to punt the ball back after a 3 and out.

 

[WestSideLion]

Yurchich calling plays for the Eagles

What grinds me is running Gainwell on 3rd and 2.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Colts with a 51-yard FG making it 10-3, Indy, with 15 sec. left in the half

 

[WestSideLion]

The Eagles have the body language of a beaten group right now. They need something to snap themselves out of this funk.

Couple of TO s will help that

I meant by the Colts not the Eagles

 

[Tom McAndrew]

an inauspicious start to the 2nd half. smh

 

[s1uggo72]

Why would the Eagles challenge that

 

[Eric_M]

Because he never really had control of it?

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Indy with a 36-yard FG and converts, making it 13-3, Colts, with 13:14 left in the 3rd qtr

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Why would the Eagles challenge that

ref threw the beanbag meaning he ruled it a catch and fumble (which it wasn't). It would have given Indy a 1st down. So the Birds challenged, and the call was overturned, so Indy kicked a FG.

Got it I thought they ruled inc on the field. Thks

Way to limit the damage.
