Eagles - Panthers Game Thread

[northeastphillyguy]

Bradford folds under pressure. He is useless when faced with a Blitz. Other teams will watch this game film and
go after him the same way. The future does not look bright.

 

[Wings]

And yet another drop to lose the game.....Game over.

 

[Iggloo]

So 3-4 it is. Bradford played pretty well. The team is just BAD.

 

[greenwing]

I would have rather overpaid jmac then watch this current group if terds we have at WR. Nice team you built here chippy! Real nice

 

[DutchBird]

And of course Austin could do nothing about that. Even though Carolina receivers have made that catch routinely tonight.

 

[mall3013]

James Thrash was actually better....

I think I would agree. And now Austin drops one. OMG this is bad football. A part of me almost wants us to tank the rest of the season for a top pick. The sad part is that we are bad enough to achieve this while trying to win.

Huff makes a simple catch like Ginn has done a couple of times tonight - easy TD.

According to your logic WR's cannot be expected to catch back shoulder throws, or anything below the waste. Absolute BS. Your blind hatred for Bradford is painfully obvious here. Anything to absolve the crap play of the WR's - or their mistakes.

they're not good receivers and/or are young and inexperienced. that's what some of you aren't getting. they are not going to consistently make tough grabs. they need an accurate QB who will hit them square when they are open.. which isn't a lot to ask for. bradford is fuckin' garbage and cannot do it.

the one and only true mistake kelly made was getting rid of foles. he was in the system, he managed it well enough, he was accurate on short and deep balls and he had a vibe with cooper.. a receiver they knew they were going to keep. if they didn't want to sign him or felt he couldn't take them deep.. fine. but don't trade him for an injured project AND give up a pick.

 

[FadeToBlack]

Y'all keep trying to blame one or the other. Bradford, at his best, is a decent NFL starter. At his worst (under pressure), he's a total scrub. On top of that, we have a group of WR's that would struggle to be a #2 on most teams.

So you have a borderline NFL starter at QB and a bunch of borderline NFL starters at WR, and this is what you get.

 

[greenwing]

Hard to believe chip the GM gave up a second and Foles for Bradford.

 

[BPNAZ]

This team is just so bad

might want to start with the simple task of drafting/developing a bonafide franchise Quarterback

LOL!

 

[Iggloo]

Hey I am no Bradford fan but if you think he is the main reason we lost you need glasses.

 

[greenwing]

At least I have my Mets to watch. To hell with this crap. Let's go Mets!

 

[DutchBird]

Hey I am no Bradford fan but if you think he is the main reason we lost you need glasses.

Exactly - he was one of the least of the problems on offense.

Except that those do not seem to be out there this year - at least according to most College Football followers.

 

[jvett77]

A team effort in losing but Bradford is still one of the big reasons.

 

[BPNAZ]

Sam Bradford 9 TD's, and 10 INT's

and yet there are still clowns in here that are perfectly fine with him as the starting QB

"its not his fault"

"he actually played well"


just hilarious

 

[_phiLLies_]

bradford.. 0 TD, 1 pick, 5 sacks, 197 yards, 4.5 avg, 58.6 rating. failed to connect with an open ertz for a TD. failed to lead huff.. who beat his defender.. for a TD. failed to hit matthews, forcing him to leap and only get one foot in before being pushed out.. for a TD.

na, no problem there at all.

 

[DutchBird]

A team effort in losing but Bradford is still one of the big reasons.

So it was Bradford's fault that WR's refused to even make routine catches. Or - if Collinsworth is to be believed - were not open? Or by the end of the game the O-line stinking it up?

 

[BPNAZ]

Except that those do not seem to be out there this year - at least according to most College Football followers.

Jacksonville, Seattle, Oakland, Tampa Bay,

Exactly - he was one of the least of the problems on offense.

I hope you're joking.........just stop
