Betting line: Eagles -6.5; o/u Fiddy

Re: Pregame Thread - Commanders v Eagles
 

Darius Slay could potentially be out for Sunday's game. Prepare to see Philly employ the same game plan as the Lions by bringing extra rushers on pass plays. Hopefully, Turner doesn't wait until the second half to adjust. It's not like Minnesota didn't have ample opportunities to make things interesting last night. They (Cousins) continued to shoot themselves in the foot once they entered the red zone. Irv Smith, Jr. also dropped what would've been a walk-in TD.

Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised one bit if Sunday's game is a shootout.

Pressure up the middle
Sweat and Davis contain the edge
Curl comes back and shadows Jalen
D gets 3 TOs and 5 sacks

Fuck the Eagles

They would beat us with their second team. There is absolutely no point in tuning into this game. I don’t even feel like Debbie Downer saying that. I feel sane.

I was really hoping we could skip the pre-game thread, the game day thread, and go right to the post-mortem in which we talk about whether the team can bounce back against Dallas. I do think we're about to get walloped. Hoping against hope that I am dead wrong.

Re: Pregame Thread - Commanders v Eagles
 

The only hope is Carson Wentz's revenge tour. Gotta put up 30+.

I know crazy things can happen in the NFL but man after Sunday it just seems like we will be doomed when facing top 10 Offenses and the Eagles are just that.

Eagles 37
Commanders 27

All I can say is that it's the NFC East and records go out the window in those games. Anyone of those teams can beat any other one of those teams on any Sunday!

I feel that is a reasonable prediction we will put up points too but not enough to make up for a weak defense.

Re: Pregame Thread - Commanders v Eagles
 

Doesn't sound like anyone is giving us a chance in this one. Our offense has been good also. Not quite as potent as Philly's but still good. We are at home as well. Know everyone is down on the defense but Detroit put up a lot of points on Philly also. Will be a tough game to win but not impossible. Let's do this!

It's more of "same shit different yr" vibe. As a fan of this team you expect the worst outcome so if we win it'll be a pleasant surprise

CRINGE

Re: Pregame Thread - Commanders v Eagles
 

Oh, I think they [B]can[/B] win, and they just might. But until I see some consistency for four quarters in all three phases, it's hard for me to have much faith that they will actually get it done.

The over/under on this game is currently 47.5. I honestly think that if the defense plays like they did last week, Philly will get the over all by themselves.

That said, I think the defense plays better, and the offense plays mistake-free.

PHI 30
