Eagles fans are impatiently turning on Pederson and Wentz. Since beating the Cowboys I’ve read four beat articles questioning who’s the bigger problem – Wentz or Pederson? Winning two of the last three division titles (to include a SUPER BOWL), along with their current lead in the division isn’t enough to overlook the obvious on-field deterioration of Pederson’s game management and Wentz’s turnover-plagued decision making. Even as poorly as the rest of the division is playing, I’m not sure Philly can hold onto the division lead given the high amount of above .500 teams left on their schedule. So how can you win another division title and still call for moving on from your mostly stable, longtime QB/HC combo? The Eagles are a name movie franchise that still wins the box office weekend despite each new release suffering falling Rotten Tomatoes ratings and vengeful fanboys decrying the loss of “canon” to avoid facing their own questionable life choices, such as patchy facial hair, obnoxious tattoos, compulsive vaping, and mixing downmarket vodkas with Monster Energy drinks, all of which are also endemic to the Eagles fanbase.

Wentz has turned into garbage in short order. Not sure I've ever seen anything like that. I thought he was going to be an elite QB for a long time. Now he kinda sucks to be honest. He's a turnover machine and he makes so many "WTF was THAT" plays- when he shouldn't be- he's played long enough in the NFL to not make those mistakes and dumb plays continually.

Midway through the 2020 season.....

Tom Brady: 20 Pass TD's, 4 INT's, 102.3 QB Rating

New England QB's: 3 Pass TD's, 11 INT's, 67 QB Rating

Yeesh. Same offense as last year basically up in New England. Brady deserved MVP in 2019 taking that awful offense and getting that team to 12-4 and throwing for 4,000+ yards and 24 TD's v 8 INT's with that cast of bums. Insane how truly awful they are on offense without him.

Pittsburgh is tough to beat, nasty defense, and an offense with the weapons to win.

I agree with MDot that KC is still the team to beat in the AFC though.

They have a better offense, and a pretty good defense to go with it.  They create turnovers and score points.

Roethlisberger being healthy will make or break the Steelers.  He's starting to have elbow issues.

Cam Newton - trash
I don't think Cam is trash. I think that team/roster is trash. Cam literally has no help. He can still be a good player with help around him imo. He needs a dynamic RB, a good pass catching TE, and some big WR's who can get downfield and catch the deep ball and come down with jump balls. Like he had in Carolina when he was an MVP.

It was always a bad fit. Cam was never an accurate short/intermediate passer. That team has zero weapons on offense and their entire offense is predicated on quick, accurate short to intermediate throws. They literally have the worst collection of skill talent in the NFL.

Cam is an excellent runner and has a HUGE albeit sometimes inaccurate arm and had a pretty good deep ball. Patriots have nobody that can get open deep. Hell they have nobody that can get open at all. Brady was about as accurate as it gets and could throw guys open. Cam is complete opposite of that.

But until last year the Squeelers had their number.Hope KC stays on this new trend

49ers get wrecked by Green Bay 34-17. In their defense, not sure there is a more injured team in the league.

Starting QB Jimmy G - out.
Starting RB and leading rusher Raheem Mostert - out.
Stud TE- maybe best in game- George Kittle - out.
Their 3rd leading statistical WR Deebo Samuel - out.
Their 1st round pick and statistical leader at WR Ayiuk - out.
Their 2nd leading WR Kendrick Bourne - out.
Their starting LT - a former All-Pro - Trent Williams - out.
By far their best player on defense- Nick Bosa - out.
Pass rush specialist Dee Ford - out.
Best CB on their team Richard Sherman - out.


They have to be the most injured team I've ever seen in a single season.

Bills are crushing Seattle 24-7. Who saw that coming? 

It’s surprising, but then when you remember that the Seattle D is literally the worst in the league- maybe it shouldn’t be so surprising.

I thought so too but they just said Seattle 32nd ranked defense.

Either way, Dallas or SEA- those are by far the two worst defenses in the nfl so far this sEason.

Pittsburgh offense is predictable...until they let Ben take over and run that 2 minute drill.
