Gannon runs his best D for a team that doesn't respect the LB position. Maybe draft him a great LB prospect and sign a FA and see if his defenses change. I'm betting they will.

why, so Jalen can throw another pick? this will be a run-heavy drive just to get a FG - or just put the Birds insider their own 20.
wow talk about about negative.
Well yeah. It's late in the game and if a QB's forced to try to come back 2 scores there's a high level of chance it won't happen. That's not negative - it's reality - pretty much the opposite of your sunshine and rainbow endings.

Despite the poor performance, the experience ofa playoff game is beneficial to these young players. They now have a little better understanding of what it takes to play at this level at this point of the season. Plus the bad taste of this loss is something they will not want to repeat.

Proud of this team....they fought till the end. Not too bad for a year that even the owner called a transitional year. Howie needs to hit a HR this off-season.

Alright all attention on the Sixers now...and hopefully we see Spring Training on time!

This game showed us something. It's well under-talented compared to legitimate playoff teams.

But it's great experience for all of the players. FO now has to fill the holes that were missing while maintaining the payroll.

I don't think they're too far away. But I do think they're more than one offseason away from being a legit contender.

IF Howie drafts smart, and holes are filled with FA's correctly, I can see this team as a 10win team. I actually think their schedule is easier next year than it was this year.

Great experience for these guys.

Better in 2022!

Don't forget to blame the ref's for every call against the 6ers.

Playing soft vs Brady in the 1st drive ended this game before it started. TB got so juiced up, built the lead before the Eagles could even get their footing.

Huge mistake to give Brady the ball when you win the toss. You only do that if you're gonna be aggressive on defense and take the game to Brady. They needed to smack Brady in the mouth on his 1st drive, not let him stand back there untouched and carve them up.

You can't play against Brady like that.

I hate to say but this will not make JJAW and Reagor any better. They both need to be let go next year.
Congratulations for the Eagles making the post season. Congratulations to the Bucs.

Not being able to come up with a full 60 minute game plan finally bit them in the ass. Like Bel said, you can't let Brady run wild like that.

Take it as a learning experience and build. All you can do.

Lots of holes to fix this offseason. Lot of decisions to make.

Still all in on Hurts for QB in 2022-23.

No need to be an ass. Those 2 calls against the Eagles were terrible calls...and they were both early in the game and shit like that changes the game. Not saying the Eagles win, but those type of calls happen, but consider that the Bucs were not called for one penalty during live game action, other then a ST penalty.
