Graham Gano?

Yep! That’s who it was.

Coaches better light a fire under these guys. They’ve been lolli gagging  all night. They better be wanting to fight anyone that looks em in the eyes in that locker room

[Disco Mike]

Carson who?

Our new owner Bezos is at the game with Goodell. This game is a sign of good things to come.

Really?

I haven’t heard Berman do highlighted in maybe 10 years.  
 

He’s lost his fastball.  But damn, the voice is nostalgic.  I remember listening to him for years on NFL Prime Time. His best was the best.

Oh Berman... looks disheveled and a shell of himself... sad.

 

He's looked this way for years.  Bags under his eyes so big you could hide Jalen Hurts in there.

Hope Gibson is OK, looked much better walking off than initially looked. Who's our 3rd back tonight, Samuel?

Its not possible for us to play offense like this for two consecutive halves, right?

Yeah.  Horrible half of football.  No energy. 

[NoCalMike]

Hard to guess what kind of adjustments are going to be made at the half.  Our defense was okay, but I still think Hurts had way too much comfort every time he dropped back.  Forrest made a great play on it, and then their WR falling down on the 3rd down helped.  I wonder if the Eagles will go to more rush attempts coming out of the half to try and balance out the time of possession.

 

Not much to complain about with the offense so far besides the turnover and awful snap.  I think we are getting about as much out of Heinicke as you can expect and while the run game hasn't been great, it has been consistent enough that the Eagles have to scheme against it and not just drop everyone back into coverage.

 

Going to be an interesting 2nd half.  I really hope the defense doesn't lay an egg on the opening drive of 2nd half to get the Eagles all the momentum back.

Prayer circle for Turner to keep this going and not start with the flea-flickers other wild stuff. we can keep it consistent and still keep our foot on the gas

Its hard to sustain since the margin of error is so thin. It'd be nice if we can rip a big play or two while maybe getting another takeaway on defense.

Ok so now all we have to do is have another half as good as the first.  No sweat, right?.

Uh, the fact we are doing it with a limited qb is great. 

 

Limited QB?  Wentz?   I dunno who this limited QB is you're talking about.   Lol.    Yes, TH is limited, as is the O-Line, etc....If you can scheme it up, TH can do enough to help you win.

[Going Commando]

Eagles fans booing their undefeated team is yet more proof that they are the worst fans in the NFL.  May they be smote by the football gods for that travesty.

Turner seems fired up in that booth. Especially after that delay of game..he's turning on the spice

He's been doing this since the early '80s. And I think he had retired, and then brought him back by ESPN just for the MNF halftimes. He's no spring chicken.

They are shocked.  Hopefully we can keep this up in the second half 

I got a real bad feeling about the second half.

Hopefully just years of abuse making me skittish but Philly is going to come out swinging hard, we better be prepared to swing back or momentum could shift very fast.

6 point lead could vanish in a second.

But I am pretty damn proud of their effort so far tonight, no matter what they've played tough and deserve serious props.

Severely outplaying the Eagles. One strip sack fumble and its worse than it is. Hope it doesnt regress to the mean in the second half. 

[maxiumone]

51 plays to eagles 19.  Hell that b rob td drive was 16 plays. Wow
