They had 252 total yards of offense, and Tucker missed 2 FGs and an XP--he gave away a touchdown. Ravens had 372 yards total offense, and had a 7-minute TOP advantage. Hurts threw for 110 yards. Yes, they got lucky.

Nah, they were lucky. On top of all the missed field goals, Philly fumbled the ball five times and somehow never turned the ball over. Lucky bounces that would have changed the game easily. I'm not saying Philly didn't earn their win, but the football gods favored them with several helpful nudges. This happens to good teams.

I dimly remember a time when we were good enough that luck favored us too.
 
I believe we recovered 2 of 3 forced fumbles yesterday. Just sayin'...
 
Being lucky in a game we dominated is different than being in a lucky in a competitive game. Chicago is a good counter example. The gods decided to volleyball that Hail Mary straight into Noah's arms. The most impossible catch of his career was also one of the easiest.

Except they didn't. Ravens still racked up 372 yards total offense, and only lost because Tucker turned into Zane Gonzalez. They outgained Philly by 120 yards. That's just more plugging your fingers in your ears and yelling.

Philly isn't on their bye this week so league rules don't tell them they aren't allowed to practice.

To hell with the 'strength and conditioning gap' - what about the mineshaft gap?!

 
Good Morning Football showed some stat - the Eagles pass less than any other team in the league. Which in a way makes sense w/ that O-line and Saquon (stupid Giants). I saw someone else online call Hurts "Black Alex Smith." LOL Kind of makes sense. Mostly hand off. Escape and run when you have to, and pass only to get by (but no big threat).

What makes no sense is why Snyder chose to stray from the POWER RUN GAME when he took ownership of the team. It's what has won us Super Bowls.
 
Hopefully this talk about the eagles receivers being pissed about their passing game unravels their season.

It would be great to win that game and end with 11-12 wins.
