Sam Bradford, Philadelphia Eagle

[hunt]

x-ray on his ankle was negative...no big deal.

i thought he played very well...2nd pick wasn't on him.  wish they could get someone open deep though.

not going to happen unfortunately....they have yet to replace pimp

[hunt]

yeah...no deep threat.
agholor was invisible last night.

[SunMo]

not true he got that drive crippling penalty in the first half

[ice grillin you]

agholor is clearly not ready for this level yet...five ten years ago you could write it off as rookie wr's struggle to acclimate to the nfl but in todays league that no longer holds true....rookie seasons are the new year 3 for wr's...still there are guys that are going to take longe than others and obviously no one is writing him off but its pretty damn disappointing that he couldnt beat out kkk or josh huff for a starting position

i honestly dont know how huff is on the team....other than his replationship with chip...at least kkk can block....huff offers nothing

[SD]

Matthews started out slow last season then he had the two td game and was suddenly part of the offense. Think I wrote it before but I'm not expecting much from Agholor till week 4 or 5. He"lol have his breakout game then they'll acclimate him into the offense

[ice grillin you]

problem is matthews could hide behind mack

agholar has huff kkk and a second year slot guy to sit behind

i like matthews but at the end of the day thats what he is....a great slot wr...he will produce big numbers because hes in chips offense and someone has to catch the balls but he scares no one and hes not going to get agohlar open....the outside gets the inside open not the other way around.....and after matthews we all know the travesty that are the wr's

really the passing offense right now is centered around getting mis matches with darren sproles who is farging awesome but when your best weapon right now is a 33 year old punt returner you probably dont have enough weapons...sproles should be the best icing on the top weapon in the league not a centerpiece

chip puts way too much importance in his system...and not enough in the talent he puts in it...can you imagine his offense with a julio jones roddy white esqe combo...i know you cant snap your fingers and get guys like that but he doesnt even seem interested in doing it

[General_Failure]

You know what's better than snapping your fingers to get guys like that? Snapping your fingers and not letting go of Jackson and Maclin.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Bradford was off in the first half and much of that, I would think, is attributed to his lay-off. He was a bit high and behind guys. If he hits Miles Austin on that seam then Austin scores. He played much better in the second half.

So I think he will be fine.

Obviously I would love them to have a strong legit number one receiver but even with what they have, collectively, they can move the ball and be successful on offense.

[ice grillin you]

moving it and scoring regular season pts against average teams is not the issue...winning a superbowl (or shtein even a playoff game) with the players they have is

[PhillyPhreak54]

And I think with how they're constructed they can so that. Is it ideal? Nah. Like I said I'd love to have a bell cow WR (or two). But when you can get guys open through scheming it can work. And we have seen that work enough times to know it can happen. Focus on the RBs out of the backfield or the TEs and that will open up things down the field. And the guys they have, well Matthews and Agholor, are good enough to take advantage of that.

[SD]

Think it's a little too early to say what they can or cannot do this season. The superbowl talk was utterly insane especially since it was based off one quarter against the Packers.

i agree they of course are still an open book...i still have them at nine wins and 11 would still not shock me...all teams have weaknesses the problem to me for the eagles is that their weaknesses are incredibly glaring when you are talking about a superbowl contender....the wr's the interior of the line and the corners are egregiously bad

[Sgt PSN]

so even in the rare game where bradford doesnt get hurt he still needs an mri.....yikes

This should be standard protocol.

maybe invest in one of those TSA full body screen johnsons and have him walk thru it after each game
