What teams will play in the next Superbowl?

[Hay Dude]

Well the Eagles have what some would call a “trap game” today.
Played Chiefs on Monday night and probably very complacent after that win.
Looking for a big matchup with San Fran next week.

But the problem is the Bills today. The Bills need this game and I bet they play hungry.
I think the Eagles are the better team but the Bills need it more.

“Nobody likes us, WE DON’T CARE”

…Jason Kelce

Jason has it all wrong. Most people don't care for Sirianni, and to some extent, I can't blame people for their opinion of him.

 

[Sigarms]

Not NFL, but man, if last night shows why you don't rush only two people on the last play of the game with 30 yards from the line of scrimmage to the goal line for the winning score, nothing will... The QB could have had lunch back there while looking for a reciever LOL

They rushed 3 if you are referring to Bama/Auburn, but to your point it was stupid and ineffective.
After coaching D-line for 8 years, I know what pressure does to a QB

It was the song he sung after 2017 Superbowl. One of the most fun times of my life being on the Art Museum circle and seeing him sing that.

Auburn had 3 on the line of scrimmage, but they only rushed 2, with the 3rd spying on the QB. That 3rd guy for the whole play made it as far as 31-1/2 yard line for about 1/2 a second and then retreated back. This should the a poster hanging on a wall on what NOT to do.

No clue about what song, but have to admit that Kelce didn't give one of the greatest superbowl speaches of all time in that Mummers outfit.

Are you kidding me? People are still talking about how funny that speech and song was

One of the most fun crowds I ever was with. never forget that day.

Technically, that’s still considered rushing 3. He is still ”pressuring” the QB. He’s pressuring him not to be able to run up the middle.

 

[Hay Dude]

No Lane Johnson today.
Probably the 2nd most important player on the Eagles offense.

I'll have to revert to your superior football intellect being a defensive line coach for 8 years.

To the common guy to, rushing the QB is trying to pressure him to throw. The "spy" is pressuring him NOT to run.

However, if only two guys are trying to get the QB when the QB has 5 guys defending him, exactly why would the QB have to run when he has to go 30 yards into the endzone and he can't pass when he passes the line of scrimmage?

Technically, what you should have said is the "song in the speach".

Truth is, Kelce does have an actual song out there that I haven't heard, but it had nothing to do with that speach.

Funny enough, in the utube video you posted, it states "chant", not a "song".

Hey, you're the one who went down the "technical" road, not I

No. The ends are trying to collapse the pocket to pressure him to run up the middle into the awaiting 3rd lineman.

I didn’t defend the defensive coordinators choice of play. I criticized it.
I would have rushed 4 and hit him with a disguised or delayed blitz. Probably have a 3rd corner do the blitz for speed.

The guy who caught the TD was only single man coverage, so dropping all the players into the secondary failed, too.

Omens not good for Philly.

I lucked out no community group tonight because it was canceled, and I can actually watch the game from North Carolina on the Eagles.

I already missed one community group meeting due to the Eagles playing and if we had community group, I’d be going due to my wife.

If I’m this lucky to actually watch the game I’m worried

 

[Hay Dude]

Worst 1/2 of football I have seen the Eagles offense play this year.
No Goedert. No Lane Johnson. No open receivers. Turnovers

 

[goeduck]

I only was able to watch the last part of the Eagles/Bills game and the OT. I thought the Bills had it in the bag, but the Eagles played like champs in the end.

2nd half they adjusted, ran the ball, and scored 30 points!

 

[Sigarms]

Two plays made everything happen and without them (and some would argue the refs as well LOL) philly would not have won.

Carter's blocked field goad which I believe was in the first half, and since philly was losing 17-7, really didn't seem important, but without it, the second play would never have happened. A 59 yard field goal in the rain with 20 seconds left to tie the game to force it into overtime.

Hey, I'm an eagles fan, but that sure looked to be a horse collar on Allen and have no clue why PI wasn't called on Diggs coverage (ironcailly in the refs defense on the non PI call, the ref wasn't even looking at the play when they showed it from a different angle).

 

[Hay Dude]

And the 2 calls on Kelce to make the game tying field goal a 59 yarder, instead of a 49 yarder, were about the most ticky-tack penalties I’ve ever seen called.

The Eagles find a way to win another.

I’d like to say they will probably lose to the 49’ers since it’s not a must win. The 49ers are much more well rested and don’t have the injury problems the Eagles have, either.

I'd take the attitude that until the division is in your pocket, every next game is a must win. That said, I see your point.

What I will find more interesting is if the Eagles will bring Frank Reich into their fold again. Reich doesn't need a lot of money because the Panthers will still be paying him, and he may want to stay busy.

Considering Reich is from Pa and he's worked with the Eagles in the past, I could see them bringing him in at least short term to see if he can contribute. One big difference in the Eagles over the years is Roseman and how they're always "wheeling and dealing" to find those pieces of the puzzle.

BTY, when you go from Irsay to Tepper as a head coach, and living in NC for some time just north of Charlotte myself, Reich was kind of dumb to take that head coaching job to begin with under Tepper IMO. Most likely the biggest dumpster fire in the NFL and all the owner has to do is look in the mirror.

It seems I'm not the only one who thinks that. Wonder if Mr. Fowler's box seats may be taken away LOL
