"Flower Power In The Jalen Hurts Era" *2021 Philadelphia Eagles Season Thread*

[Controversy]

I know the lack of rushing attempts gets the attention but that 2-5 start was deeper than that tbh. The penalties, all the shuffling on the OL with Mailata, Seumalo, Brooks, and Lane coming in and out, the inability to get stops on defense, etc

Maybe we win the 49ers game but that came down to getting stuffed in the redzone multiple times.

Sirianni deserves a ton of credit for adapting on the fly as a rookie HC while winning over a roster full of veterans who were used to doing things a certain way with Doug. Lurie's track record for identifying head coaching talent continues to look impressive.

Sirianni has been impressive as hell. His scheme works, and his playcalling is actually effective. Ppl didn't realize he was scheming guys open, with a great run balance, and a good feel for the game.

Let's be real none of us thought we'd be in contention for a play-off spot when the season kicked off.
Whatever happens in the last two games I think we can all say that this team exceeded expectations.
Thats a good job by Siriani. A damn good job.

clinching scenarios for the eagles

The Eagles entered Week 16 right on the outside looking in at the No. 8 spot. But with the Birds beating the Giants and the Vikings losing to the Rams, Philly jumped up to the No. 7 seed.

As a result, the Eagles control their destiny over the final two weeks. If they beat Washington on the road in Week 17 and take down Dallas at home in Week 18, they’ll definitely be playing in the postseason.

The Eagles might not even need to win out to make the playoffs, though! They can actually clinch a berth as soon as Week 17 if they get some help. Such a scenario looks like this:

• Eagles win their Week 17 game: at Washington
• Vikings lose their Week 17 game: at Packers
• Saints lose their Week 17 game: vs. Panthers ... OR ... Saints lose their Week 16 game: Dolphins (Week 16 Monday Night Football) AND the San Francisco 49ers beat the Houston Texans in Week 17.

Things don’t always go as expected in the NFL, as we know, but the preceding is hardly a far-fetched scenario.

It’s also worth noting the Eagles have a realistic path to the No. 6 seed instead of settling for the No. 7 seed. The 49ers have a head-to-head tiebreaker over Philly, which is inconvenient. But if the Eagles win their final two games and the 49ers lose their remaining games (vs. Texans, at Rams), they’ll potentially be in the six spot.

The Eagles can even still win the No. 5 seed if they win out and the Cardinals lose out (at Cowboys, vs. Seahawks). If there’s a three-way tie with the Eagles, Cards, and 49ers all at 10-7, Philly has the tiebreaker to put them at the top of that trio.

clinching scenarios for the eagles

hopefully we clinch next week and avoid playing the cowboys to get in. i don't mind playing them in the offs because their franchise the past 25+ years is the definition of folding under the pressure & underperforming when the hype is all on them. for a final week 18 reg season game though, i definitely feel like they would stomp us.

the simple fact we're even talking clinching scenarios for a rebuilding year is a W

Wouldn’t mind another wildcard matchup against the eagles.


Hurts play right into our hands. Especially with his love for the deep balls. He given Diggs a majority of his interceptions.

Some of u nikkas never take prosperity in stride, football is a one game playoff and any fukkery can happen on any given Saturday or Sunday. Guess y all gotta get it in while y all can.

So start feeling yourselves before y all really done anything and start underestimating y all opps

They need to be nice to us because we control their destiny to even get to the playoffs.
