Hoping this is a good game.

I wanna see a Romo vs. Peyton Manning level of scoring.

[MAGAmobile]

Yeah I don't. I'd like to see Seattle have some sense of a defense still.

[Northern Goblin]

That Eagles pass rush is scary.

[MAGAmobile]

Encouraging first quarter.

Encouraging first quarter.

Yep, good game so far. Eagles can't just stroll in here and expect the Seahawks to roll over just cause they have some organization to their O and D. They'll have to earn it by beating them.

VERY interested how Wentz reacts to this game and in this game. He had an easy completion sail on him earlier, and I think he was a bit nervous. He looked stone faced coming on the field for this drive too.

Officiating has been suspect.

[MAGAmobile]

Been a few face masks and holding calls missed on both teams.

[xskarma]

Carson Wentz not asked to do much so far. Very heavy reliance on the run game. Guessing they want Seattle to commit to stopping the run before going to the pass. That only works if the Eagles defense can keep the score close though. See how that works, cause Seattle looked to be doing well on offense.

[MAGAmobile]

No idea how they missed that hit.

[WskyDK]

Been an interesting day.

I REALLY hope Gronk gets a suspension. Flagrant and caused injury.
I'm only kinda joking when I say he probably took some time off the end of that guy's life. I lost so much respect for Gronk today.

This is the eagles first game against a team with a winning record. It's week 13. They will be one and done in the playoffs.

You missed that Panthers game I guess, huh?

That's not true. They beat the Panthers. (and lost a close game to the Chiefs when the Chiefs were still red hot)

They still might go one and done, but it's not like they played nobody so far. They'll also have plenty of competition the coming weeks (and this week!).

Eagles are down one TD, disband the team!

[MAGAmobile]

Good defense by both teams. Thinking Wentz will challenge the secondary more in the half.

He better. Rodney Harrison's commentary was on point. They look like a scared team out there right now. Ultra conservative. The Eagles team that won 10 games would have went (and got) that 4th down at the end of the half and wouldn't be protecting Wentz they way they are with the conservative game plan. Hopefully it's a lesson learned in the 1st half and they come out and run their normal offense in the second half.

I know I have some homerism because he played with the Pats, but I hope Rodney gets into the HoF. Such a good safety while he was playing.

Let's start with Ty Law and work from there.

Ha, touche. And seriously, Ty Law. He picked off Peyton Manning 3 times in one game in the playoffs. That alone...
