@DiBonaNFL@DiBonaNFL , I was thinking of this when I heard the news. Part of me is curious if Stoutland's love for his players can somewhat blind him from doing what needs to be done. I'm not saying that lightly, Stoutland was an absolute stud. But clearly, the run game was a problem!
@DiBonaNFL My opinion: rest your starters but play your absolute hardest for the #2 seed. No reason why Tanner and the backups couldn't compete and still win. Come on Lions! Go for the upset! haha
@ndbain@JoshReynolds24 I followed Covey starting a long time ago. I think Covey has been a phenomenal returner, but that’s not the question. The question for the Eagles is if he is even healthy enough to even play? Idk. I’m inclined to think that he’s not. We’ll see.
@EliotShorrParks Idk… that feels like a stretch. Putting him up there over like Reuben Frank, Ray Didinger, Sal Pal and now Zach Berman feels disrespectful. To be honest, I have struggled with knowing what kind of value Gunn is offering to the Eagles journalist community for years now.
@DiBonaNFL It might be tough dealing with blowback but I grew up a Jazz fan and am still a Jazz fan. Let me tell ya there is nothing more cruel (from an NBA perspective) than being the fan of such a successful NFL team and the fan of such an abysmal NBA team. Lol. Keep up the great content!
@EliotShorrParks It’s a bit disingenuous to act like this is something new. This same thing was happening last year and even before last year. For the record, getting to the line late was a net benefit to confusing D’s last year. At least that was my take.
@PHLEaglesNation Love this dude. This is 100% the right attitude - even if today was absolutely not his fault. Jalen played so hard today. Our dudes just made too many mistakes!
@MichaelJFollett@ChuxMaranan Last year, I asked @DiBonaNFL about it because it was actually an advantage for the Eagles because they would get to the line late and give the D little time to adjust pre-snap. But shifting back to the game, the OLine had a dreadful day. And skill players made dumb mistakes.
@MichaelJFollett@ChuxMaranan For the record, the Eagles have been behind on the play clock for years. This isn’t a new problem. I would argue most of the issues didn’t deal with play clock management but rather with players making boneheaded, undisciplined mistakes.
@DiBonaNFL I appreciate seeing your devotion to being there for your family. There’s absolutely nothing more important. Props to you for the great work you’re doing. 👏🏻
