Let's try this "Win and in" again. Eagles Pregame 2.0

Why would they want to win? A team depleted with offensive talent and defensive for that matter needs a top 5 pick, if they lose they are a lock for that.


Players don’t tank. They’re playing for a spot next year. The team may start pulling back if we’re winning by a couple TD’s but we’re not good enough to get that high. Hurt, in particular, is vying as a possible consideration as the starter next year. He’s certainly have to compete against Wentz next TC, but if he’s good enough the Eagles may not draft a Qb with their first draft pick.

Even with all the hurt Eagles this won’t be easy. We’re not good enough for that, especially if McLaurin isn’t playing (??).

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI agree with your first part - players don't tank. Players know that their next coach/employer looks at film from these type of games to see who has internal motivation.

I disagree about us not being good enough, it has gone under the radar because of the Haskins effect, but our offense has found some serious rhythm the last few games.( i am ignoring the first 20 minutes because I don't have a clue why they can't start at speed).

ESPN: Gibson, Smith, McLaurin ALL active.

How is this team going to break my heart today?

If we lose it’s on you putting this bad juju out there!!

Some people are wired to be pessimistic. I'm not saying that's necessarily the case for jamf, but I think you catch my drift. The heck with bad juju. We're gonna handle our business by kicking ass and taking names.

Big time news. Rolling these three as oppose to Trashkins, Sims Jr/AGG and Barber is a relief

We're gonna handle our business by kicking ass and taking names.Our team has dropped stinkers many times including just last week. I think having a thought like jamf expressed isn't pessimistic as much as trained behavior. And even as I type this and watch Washington Football Kickoff Preview (team produced tv show) I see this on the tv. Is spelling versus right too much to ask for a professional team?https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210103/56a244e8ccf5076912b07c03b2e11f6b.jpg

So, you don't think Haskins playing had any effect on our game last week? I feel pretty darn confident by saying if Smith wasn't injured or had we played Heinicke earlier then we would've won. Haskins is or was that bad!

Frankly, we have fared well when we've been in similar position (ie, 1999, 2005, 2007, 2012, and 2015). The only time we've crapped the bed was in 2016. Past history suggest we're good to go.

Past history suggest we're good to go.Sure playing Haskins had an effect. But the WFT has had enough flubs to hope they don't ruin our day/evening.

That said, cutting Haskins and having all three offensive players available take away ANY excuse for the WFT not win the game.
