Can we get the Jets kid to do an Eagle version?

This seemed like a good idea at the time.

Nice to wake up smiling after stomping the Eagles asses on a Monday night.
Our center has the 411 out on him….and it’s working. He is getting trucked at critical junctures of games. I thought he was a bit stronger at the point but it obvious he’s got some issues.
Just imagine if this team had another lock down corner and a stud at DE….I may be homering out but I bet it’s a top 5 D in that scenario. These guys are playing well.

Damn right.

And this is what I mean when I said last night about being aggressive just for the sake of doing so.

In my opinion, it made more sense to be aggressive here after the 2nd down play because it was 3rd and 24, there was about 1:15 left to play, the Eagles couldn't stop us at all while being awful offensively themselves, and they were getting the ball to start the second half.

It made more sense to be aggressive there than to go for 6 when a FG puts us up 16 midway through the 4th quarter.

I don't think McCarthy's situational awareness is very good which sucks given that we had to suffer through 10 years of Garrett's lack of the same.

I just hope it doesn't cost us a game in January.

Tyron Smith's name and whoever was lined up against Tyron was never called. Non-existent. Just erased.

Gotta watch the game again and see just how Tyron silenced his opponent.
If you are re-watching, do you have any interest in reviewing how the empty backfield worked out for the Cowboys?

Given the soft spots in the OL, to me it seems obviously better to keep Zeke in for pass protection than to have Zeke line up as a WR. There were a couple of plays out of the empty backfield set last evening that didn't go well for the Cowboys, but I may have missed other plays from that set that worked well.

He should wipe his ass with it, but that is today's NFL player.
I thought Miles Sanders tweeted that Micah better be ready to swap jerseys?

Kinda funny if he dissed him.
