No! He should be frothing at the mouth, wanting to kill Philly. He looks like a teenager who was just told he couldn't stay up and watch SNL. We need a badass at QB.

 

Show me a badass after 6 first half sacks...not how that works at all...

[Warhead36]

St. Juste is playing well. I know it sounds crazy to say but he's not getting abused. The catches he's given up have just been great plays by his opponent.

Go back and read. Two people said cut or trade.

 

And no, I’m not. I’m just realistic and realize he has stunk but the OL has been trash and the play calling also trash. It’s not any one thing but a combo of many. 
 

He’s certainly not good today.

What you are seeing through 3 games is exactly what Wentz is and has been. Notice how Logan Thomas has no targets, it's because the Eagles know he is very dependent on his TE and they're taking that away from him, forcing him to throw the ball elsewhere and he looks very inaccurate. Wentz needs good playcalling and obviously better line play to be good because he doesn't do much to create magic on his own.

Ron Rivera is a good head coach for the 1990s.  We always hire folks who are 1 decade behind current nfl offenses. 

[NoCalMike]

Here comes 3 straight passes to various RB's after it is too late and Philly adjusts their coverage.

[RandyHolt]

Why did they blow the whistle on the punt?? Of course none of our players tried to pick up the free ball

[skinsmania123]

First of all, that pass to the Eagles receiver was OUT of bounds and Rivera should have had that challenge flag out of his pocket ASAP.  That started the massacre because it gave them momentum.  Secondly, Wentz has had little to no time to even set his feet before their D line is all over him. But Turner needs to adjust - shotgun maybe? Have an outlet? Maybe a few screen passes, to get things going. I do not see it fully on Wentz.  The O line is makeshift right now with key players out The D has been on the field, most of the two quarters. It is inevitable, to eventually get gassed and breakdown.

Look Holcomb letting a rookie no-name TE run completely by him unchallenged.  We have our new Reed Daughty

Having Holcomb cover a.j. brown is another bit of damning evidence that jdr is essentially a bum for us

I'm not giving up on this season just yet. Dallas next week is beatable. 

You think this offense can do anything against the Cowboys D? They'll win with 2 defensive scores and Cooper Rush kneeling every play.

By calling us pathetic and stupid?

 

Bad timing...

I’m calling myself the same thing LOL. I’m literally admitting I’m pathetic for watching still. It’s called self-deprecating humor  

[PCS]

I would love to attempt to post some type of analytical type of critique of the team so far that would be somewhat understanding of things while still being a tad harsh hear and there. I can't. Instead.

I agree. We need a QB who can block DL players himself and who won't keep calling 7 step drops when his OL can't pass block to save their lives.

Talk about Scott Turner why won't you. It's always about Del Rio. Our defense can only do so much especially when the offense only has like 60 yards of total offense.  This is common sense. If you don't like Del Rio, Im not saying you do but in general then take it to the tailgate forums. This is football and our offense sucks when it comes to the first half. It's really not that hard to comprehend what's going on.

Do you not think that getting Philly’s offense off the field a tiny bit faster also tires out Philly’s defense?  ANd the offense scored enough to win the past 2 games.  Del-Rio deserves every ounce of vitriol he received, and more.

Gibby is all we got on O right now

Man...those answers by Rivera at halftime.  Dude is just freaking lost.  He has no answers as a coach.  

 

Why continue this???

[Renegade7]

Is Pink saying Ron blaming Wentz for all those sacks? Seriously???

[Simmsy]

Just go for it.

[GoDeep81]

Good name for a crappy band. "Shy of the sticks" 

[tomwvr]

Wentz missed an open wr on the left sideline
