Nice win - and obviously the playoffs are a realistic possibility

Not a fan of some of the coaching, but a win is a win

Hope Slay is not seriously hurt

2 TDs for Ertz today

not looking good for the Eagles getting any top 10 picks. Colts are probably making the playoffs

You have to look at it being a real possibility that the Eagles could win 9-10 games.
Colts look like they could do the same.

So you are looking at Pick 19 and up for both of those picks.

Miami is playing decent football and I put them at around 7 wins

So right now my guess would be 20. 19 and pick 12.

That is still a ton of amunition to get impact players.

Despite some good defensive play the D almost let the Saints come back and win. Is that more on Gannon playing prevent.

Yeah I was thinking the Eagles and Dolphin pick would be top 10 with the Colts maybe top 15. That would be a serious haul.
Looking less like the Eagles take a LB with one of those first round picks. TJ Edwards, Davion Taylor and Singleton are looking
like the Eagles future LB corps.

Get this.

The Eagles OL was so dominant vs the #1 rush defense in the NFL, they created 186 yards rushing before the 1st contact.

Remember we were writing the team off after three games?

New coach, new QB, new scheme. I give credit where credit is due. They figured it out and made changes.

My question is, when the other defenses figure this out and stop them, can they adjust again?

Isn't the adjustment more play action? I think having 8/9 men in the box will allow Smith, Goedert, and Watkins to run free, and then we need Hurts to be accurate. Only way teams will really stop this if they bring more guys to the box. This OLine is very big, teams are going to need a dynamic LB or two and big boys on the Dline to stop this run game with only 5/6.

The Eagle could bringing in an extra Olineman if other teams start stacking the box.
