That we will. Go ahead and look through the history of teams records. You will see no correlation between preseason record and regular season record.
I am not talking about their record I am watching how they are performing and executing their system. I can't tell you what their record is for the pre season.

I get it. And a week ago I watched Bradford and he looked like shit. I get it though, we are in the middle of preseason so we have to pretend like the football we are watching is important or something.

You can be a complete ass sometimes. Why the sarcasm and condescending dialogue?

So does that out Robert Turbin on the bubble? Now that is a RB who would intrigue me.

All the media talking heads are saying Michael is probably cut now

Yeah, I'd probably be down for him as well. Just have a hard time seeing them keeping Turbin around as a third stringer without putting him at least on the trading block. I like Turbin more then Michael obviously.

Seattle definitely likes a certain style of back physically though and all of their guys seem to fit that mold. None of their backs are what I'd call small and quick. They are all stalky thick built RBs which is what we need at this point I guess.

They looked impressive but it was pretty clear they took it like for reals and the Packers didn't.
The Eagles' are just executing their plays which are too convoluted and strange for preseason defenses to deal with, especially in the 2nd half.

It's mostly a weird mismatch with no resemblance to a real game.

They will outclass the bad teams they face with this smoke and mirrors shit and lose or come close to losing to every good team. It's a gimmick that might get them to the playoffs, but not much beyond if even that.

The Eagles have been impressive in the preseason every year under Kelly because they game plan for these games and their opponents don't. Also, the Packers rested almost all of their starters. Yeah, Bradford looked good, but he didn't look so hot against the Ravens and we all know he's one big hit away from being out for the year.

I assume they will be good offensively, this system is built to produce points better than most. But I also remember seeing Spurrier's Redskins being all yee-haw kickass in his first preseason and then they flopped big time when gameplans actually started to be used.

Yep. Remember a few years ago when the skins were raping everybody in the preseason? People were proclaiming them a team to be feared, too. Then the real games rolled around...

Every player is just one big hit from being out for the year.

They make Sanchez look respectable as a QB. I have no doubt that the Eagles will still put up points next year. Regardless of which QB is running their offense. It's why I've said they still probably win 9-10 games.
