Yep, and what I have seen from Wentz is damn impressive. Fuck the media and the Philly fans. My only criticism of Wentz is to go down and not play hero ball. He's a fierce competitor and it's obviously hard for him to do that. When Wentz is healthy, he is a top tier QB for sure.

They were trying to say that the plays are different because different guys were in motion. They tried to run through the same gap each time.

One of the radio announcers said Brady looked like a deer in the headlights during the game.

So much talk about the woeful play from the o-line, and rightly so, but some of the secondary play has been inexcusable through two weeks. How the hell could Kupp be left so open so often? What a shambolic first couple of weeks.

-Reich needs to forfeit his play calling duties, but I don't think we have anyone nearly as capable on our team to replace him. Frank just needs to stop being so damn cute, so damn often.

-Wentz was good. Better than week 1. He isn't taking enough heat for that awful shuffle pass....Maybe the worst play of the year, and completely deflated any offensive momentum we had.

-Pittman may actually emerge as our guy, which is nice. He needs to show more TD upside.

-Where was Strachan? Not nearly enough looks consider Campbell was out.

-Was Granson perhaps the biggest waste of a pick from this years draft? Think Doyle will come back for another year? Has anyone ever seen a criminally and confusingly underused player in multiple regimes as Moe-Allie Cox? The guy must just be the worst route runner and practice player ever. I can never understand why he is never used a lot, lot more.

-Fisher looks solid and I think that's a huge bonus for us going forward. We really need this line to play a few healthy games together, if it ever happens. The line is crazy bad but way too talented to continue on this way. It will get better.

-JT looking a lot like he did early last season as well. Trying too hard to find the perfect hole instead of hitting the one that flashes early. He needs to get more screen passes and we need to find better ways to get him the ball in space.

-Can we just trade Paris Campbell (for a bag of peanuts) already so his career can flourish elsewhere? This guy is literally Phillip Dorsett 2.0

-Defensively, we are soft. We make plays at opportune times that always makes the game closer than it should be. Slow starts on D are killing us. Having Walker last season thump away on running downs made a huge difference. Splitting that LB with Walker last year has proven way more effective than trying to Pigeonhole Okereke into something he is not (a football player, apparently)

-Pass rush is still an issue. Edges have no creativity of plethora of moves to get to the QB. The punch from the D-line and speed is there initially, but the last punch to sack the QB is really lacking. Paye looks good, and obviously Buckner and Grove. Other then that, not much to talk about. Muhammad overplays his role on the team almost ever year.

Overall, same shit on a different day here. Reich ultimately lost this game for us, just like the first one.

Yeah hasn’t been great. But we kinda know the secondary isn’t great. Oline is supposed to be our strength. 4th highest paid oline in the league soon to be the highest after Nelson is signed.

Hire Peyton Manning to call the plays, although he would probably reject the offer.

o

At no time, since the beginning of camp have all five projected starters been on the field, for a practice, scrimmage, preseason or regular season game.

It does make a difference

If you are going to invest so heavily in your oline. You need to also get insurance. Your line can’t fall apart if a single guy is out. This team loses if Castonzo was out or Hilton was out. Also the other players looked soft. They ran behind Nelson four times and could not get one yard.

Ballard said he needed to improve the backups, he didn’t. They might be worse. He knew he wouldn’t have Fisher early on, only by a stoke of luck is he back so soon. We could have seen this for 4-5 more games.

We've dropped to 23rd in the power rankings. Between WFT and the Bears. Smh

Its called a salary cap. If you have 7 guys who get paid like starters you dont have money to spend on other positions. Nelson didnt play in the pre season, same with Fischer. Not practicing or getting pre season reps makes a difference
