Official Eagles vs Saints Thread

[Nitwit]

Not seeing a thread I’ll start this one at halftime after Darius Slay just ran a pick 6 for the birds to take a 27-7 lead. The only blemish in the first half was a fumble by Sanders on their own 6 yard line which lead to a New Orleans TD followed by another fumble around the same place, but they didn’t lose possession. Prior to that he was having a good game.

I asked this in my unofficial EAGLES thread as I m not authorized to start one but
Is Miles Sanders playing his way out of Philly

I think so. You have the feeling that this staff has seen him as expendable from the beginning, and the fumbling won't help his cause in Philly. It's easy come easy go with most RBs in the NFL.

Howard down now?? I think he’s their best back

Yep, he’s gone. And I think his career is on the edge.

It ain’t over boys

Oh boy. This has the makings of an historic loss. Who was saying they’re in the thick of the playoff race?

Best field position this half

 

[s1uggo72]

As long as Miles doesn’t fumble again we should be good

 

[s1uggo72]

Or run out of bounds

 

[WestSideLion]

A few key first downs likely stem the tide here. Phew.

And a TD run to boot!!

 

[84lion]

Had me worried. NO has been making some hellacious comebacks in the past few weeks (nearly beat the Falcons a few weeks ago in the final minutes). Philly should be OK now.

Birds win. 40-28. Saints score at the end of the game to close the gap. Hurts with 3 rushing TDs today and played a great game.

Stolen from another site but
I like the way this guy thinks….

Eagles have the easiest schedule next 5 weeks…Giants twice, Jets, WFT twice. They should be at worst 9-7 going into last week against Cowboys. If Dallas loses 3 of the next 7 they are 10-6. Eagles win and they win the division.

WFT playing much better. Beat Carolina away after beating Tampa at home.

me, and they are

me, and they are

FPI gives them a 40% shot. I wouldn’t be that generous just yet. Let’s see how they do at New York next week. The Giants and Skins are playing a lot better lately. The Eagles run offense is a real strength right now. Their D is going to allow any team with a pulse on offense to hang around.

9-8 may get them in. 10-7 would do it, I think.

Wow! That’s rather optimistic. I hope all his dreams come true, but the odds are staggering.

Dallas has two WRs out against the Raiders on Thursday. I watched a lot of the Dallas-KC game yesterday and the Cowboys O did not look good. Zeke Elliott came off limping yesterday, too; I am unsure about his availability for Thursday.

Any guesses as to which board member’s mother this is?

Yeah the announcer said it appears she disagrees with the call.

The downtweets were hilarious. “She 100% teaches CCD.” (Catholic Catechism.)

The guy on the left of the video in the green jacket, isn't fully captured on the GIF. He was flashing the refs a double bird salute.

My thanks for you guys for picking up this thread. I was traveling on Sunday, and stopped off on my way home at a relatives and watched the 4th quarter. A nice win for the Birds.

I like this line....
You don’t have to like Sirianni, but it’s obvious his players do and that’s all that matters.
