Game Thread: Redskins @ Eagles, 9/8/19, 1PM, FOX

[Guy Incognito]

Thanks to the new TV rules, I can watch this from home.

Line's up to 10 on this one now. Think we'll have a pleasant, relaxing Sunday.

I'm hardly ever relaxed watching an Eagles game! Too intense!

Same here.

Titans game on at the same time, but now I actually get an NFC game too. WOOOOOO!!!!

 

[John]

Relaxing - When does that happen?
Every play is F this and F that.
Wentz better NOT be rusty.

 

[Rey]

Nothing would surprise me in the first game of the season. Wentz hasn't played a meaningful game in a while ... Fletcher Cox hasn't seen much contact since the injury; Bradham, Darby, Brandon Brooks etc .. etc ... There's still a lot of questions surrounding this team going into game 1.

 

[John]

It's game day. Let's Go Eagles.

 

[Orlando Eagles]

27-13 Eagles.

Close game in the first half, but we hold drives well enough that we wear down the D by the 4th and cruise out. Just be prepared to bite some nails in the first half or so.

 

[old duke]

BIRDS-30
SKINS-16

 

[Taddy Mason]

did desean take one 75 yards to the house yet?

Not yet but the "vonted" Eagles defense looks like wet tissue paper

So far your prediction is on point.

I hope this isn't going to be another year of never blitzing...

 

[TheSnowdog]

Foles hurt his shoulder (completed the TD pass though)
Out the rest of the game

 

[Darth Dawkins]

Damn, Foles just can't seem to exist outside Philly.

 

[PhillyGreen]

And once again Jim Schwartz is showing why he is trash as a DC.

 

[BPNAZ]

Philly gonna Philly

God forbid one fucking time they come out and show they are a top tier team

Every single time they are big favorites they fail or barely win. It’s like this franchise is allergic to dominating wins So sick and tired of the slow starts. Where’s the fucking talent. They look like a 9-7 team again already

 

[Taddy Mason]

and with that, it's time for me to start drinking heavily.

d-line getting no pressure and the secondary is absent.

 

[Four4Four]

1st game people. Even if they should lose this game, the season isn't over.

 

[PhillyGreen]

Why the fuck is Darren Sproles the feature back?

 

[Darth Dawkins]

WTF was with that pitch? Just sneak it ffs.

 

[TheSnowdog]

Why the fuck is Darren Sproles the feature back?

I was wondering the same thing

But that play call was pathetic
Regardless if it is Sproles as RB or one of the onther backs why is Pedersen pitching it back 7-8 yards to get 3 yards
