Half time. Bucs up 16-9 and the Eagles are lucky the Bucs don't have 28.
The Eagles shouldn't have gone for the 2 point conversion; it might come back to haunt them.

How many coaches are going to get fired after a shit show season for the Eagles?
Baker Mayfield tore them apart. Let that sink in.

Both coordinators for sure, and no doubt others, especially on defense. They can't tackle at all.
Their hands are more slippery than the Chief's receivers. The Eagle's collapse this season is among the worse ever. Putrid.

Running QBs have a rough time being 100% after taking 17 games of pounding...

There's a big difference between "mobile" and "running"...

Ok, let me fix it for you: running QBs get hurt less than pocket passers, not more.
Do your own research if you want. Believe what you want. Argue with the facts if you want, but it won't change the facts.\
Hurts didn't get hurt running; he got hurt in the pocket. That is where QBs get hurt, not running the ball.

yes that was the worst collapse in sports history. Unexplainable really.
A worse collapse: the 1964 Phillies. They had 6 ½-game lead with 12 games to go, lost 10 in a row, and missed the postseason. And it all started with Frank Robinson at the plate with two outs and two strikes and Chico Ruiz stealing home.
As for the Eagles collapse, it's explainable: they lost too much talent and both coordinators.
On defense, they lost six of their eleven starters. Two of the players who did return, cornerbacks Slay and Bradbury, seemed to have both lost a step and were bad. Their secondary was banged up too. DC Sean Desai was terrible, and Matt Patricia was even worse.
On offense, Hurts' bone bruise made him much less of a threat to run, which completely affected their run game, which went from great to mediocre at best. The offensive line was not up to it's best in the NFL status either. Jalen Hurts did not play error-free football like he did the previous season, which was a large part of his success.
Their luck ran out. They got away with it all for 11 games, pulling rabbits out of hats to win games, but they clearly were not the same as the previous year. At first, we all thought their resilience was a good sign; we were wrong.

No, they went from the ultimate winners with a tough as nails championship aura to a team that couldn't compete at all. No baseball collapse compares,

You're confusing this year's team with last year's. They were never that this year; you're living in the past. This year, after those couple of great running games, they were just doing enough to get by bunch. They had many, in game, mini collapses, eking out games at the end. We all looked at that as resilience and said it would serve them well once they started "playing like themselves." It turns out that was "themselves." Last year's team left, literally and figuratively.
If Jalen didn't get injured, it might have changed things a bit, not only on offense, but the way they might have played defensively, playing with leads and playing downhill. But I don't think so; the defense was what it was. They might have been able to avoid the total collapse, but that would have just masked some of the weaknesses that inevitably come out in the playoffs.
It's difficult to get back to the Super Bowl the following year, and we saw one of the reasons why: loss of manpower and brainpower due to success. Not to mention a key injury or two.
No matter what, the Eagles have a LOT of work to do, both on the field and in the front office.

If anything the team we saw in the first 11 games this year was better, magical.
but that's my opinion, believe what ya want.

Maybe you liked them better, but they were not better. Last year, they were blowing teams out by halftime and cruising for the second half of games while playing downhill defensively (and sacking QBs like crazy).
But I know where you're coming from, and if that's what you prefer, then that's what you prefer.
Next year, along with what they already have to fix personnel-wise, they have another issue to deal with: age. Kelce retired; Lane Johnson's one year older, as are Brandon Graham and Fletcher Cox.

Really? Why? Because a bunch of over-paid men that you don't know didn't do as well as you'd hoped in a meaningless game that has no bearing on anything whatsoever except ultimately to distract the masses from shit that really matters?
Sucker.

They all produced. Kelce has been among the best centers, if not the best, even last year. We'd like to have that old fart back.
Fletcher Cox is a little overpaid based on his past though.

I hate all the talk about Siriani getting fired. It's so obvious there is a cancer on the team right now as it stands. Some have said it began on the defensive side when they traded for Kevin Byard, or it could have something to do with AJ Brown. I think Lurie and Howie brought on the Matt Patricia move and it devastated them enormously.

Hugh Douglas thinks Roseman is leaking crap to cover himself this year.
I thought this noise came from sports radio doing their thing, and it might be good for Siriani that Angelo is no longer on air; he would ride this hard.
