Van Ginkel really took it easy on Hurts, my gawd. Like he was paid

0 penalties for the Eagles is definitely very believable and not at all questionable given some of the shit they've let them get away with.

It's annoying because when healthy they're a 10-12 win team but their offense is constantly living on the margins and kind of hanging by a thread with the overreliance on running Hurts and the BS short yardage sneaks. I'm fairly certain that if the league outlaws that play their expected wins would drop by like 2, which is ridiculous.

I turned this off when the eagles were winning 17-3.

I checked the score a little while later and it was 17-17. I excitedly turned the game back on, and now it is 31-17.

I blame myself for this disaster. I have failed God and my country. And my beloved corps.

Fucking Eagles. How are they so good year in and year out? Why can’t they be mediocre like the Redskins, Bears, or Cardinals or something?

This thread is gross.
On one hand NFL officiating is horrid almost every week, but when you combine that with the Eagles being called for a grand total of 0 penalties it becomes preposterous.

Ticky tack calls directly led to about a 10 point shift in the game, which happens almost every week because it's just that bad in the NFL, but to have that combined with one team being called for 0 penalties just makes it ridiculous.

It's all about consistency. There is none in the NFL

Yep, some games (like our last one) have 100 penalties while the Eagles have zero?

What a joke. I guess the NFL can become the NBA and call some on Philly the next time they play a tomato can to "make up" for it and get all the noticers off their back.
