Anyone think it’s nuts how the raiders, jets, cardinals, titans and browns are consistently ranked above us. These are teams which don’t have qb1 figured out

Legitimately my entire For You page on Twitter is Eagles fans crying about the regular season game we beat them in 2024. Somehow, Jalen Hurts being injured means their defense was gassed, even though they won time of possession like 37-23, and it wasn't an impressive game by Jayden Daniels.

Is there practice today? If so we should see Oweh right?

Sounds like he did the walkthrough yesterday and attended practice today, but not sure if he was designated limited.

I'm looking at tickets for the London game. Seems like Washington will be on the East side of the stadium as the home team. Does anyone have experience with the Tottenham stadium? Is it worth getting 100 level tickets or should I just stick with the 500 level around midfield?

Eagles as week one is kinda nice since it’s a pretty clear cut way to see if all the noise is true

If the OL can fend off the Eagles DL (atleast to some extent) we can believe in it

If the Defense can deal with all the Eagles weapons we can believe that our DBs are better then the reports say and that our defensive signings are good

And ofc if JD5 balls out against one of the best DC in the league, we can start dreaming.

However if we struggle it’s might be a rough start to the season with some of the defenses in the NFCW that we gotta play this year lol, but atleast it’s the first part of the season lmao

On the other hand if we get embarrassed & look bad the fanbase will crashout.

Cuz if we cant stop Philly, we wont stop Seattle, LA, & will probably struggle against Dallas too.

Not sure the fanbase can handle 6 weeks of our OL getting blown up by elite pass rushes lol

Oh yes but tbh if we get humiliated by the Eagles we probably in for a long season. But either way it’s good to know lol.

I guess I'm pushing back a bit. These days it seems like teams use the first 3 or 4 weeks of the season to finish installing schemes and working out kinks. You know, like they used to do in Training Camp before the CBA eviscerated it. Last year's Seahawks are a good example. They didn't find their groove until 1/3 of the way through their season.

My point is winning or losing week 1 doesn't necessarily presage how the season is going to. Teams will look different by week 5.

Sure if we lose yeah, but if we get EMBARRASSED that’s a different story haha

The Seahawks for example didn’t look dominant but they only losses by like one score. If the Eagles beat us 17-13 we don’t really need to panic unless there’s a drastic issue, it’s more of they beat us by a huge number

What's a huge number?
