Actually, that's what I've noticed, more work shifted to the second and even first week. Wonder if teams want more time to they from possible injury or something. Just look at Dak so far.
It actually would make sense to flip the second and third games. Make the second preseason game your dress rehearsal. Keep the starters warm with a few series in the third week and then rest up. Like you said, that way if a starter does get hurt you have the extra week to recover.

I’m hearing Foles has fallen to earth, looking like shit tonight.

:lol

I hate Garrett, but there were two faces presented to me to punch, I would take Schwartz's first.

Now it would be a tough decision.
Do you not have two fists?

The eagles won with coaching as much as anything. I don't think their talent is particularly impressive or anything.

Foles is what Foles always has been. Not a good QB.
Well then that should settle the long ongoing saga of whether winning a Super Bowl is a requisite for Quarterback identification of greatness. Or conversely a Quarter back can be great with ever having to win a Super Bowl.

No that you have cleared that up we have a new frame of reference to add to our discussions.

Theres a lot more great QBs that never reached or won a Superbowl than there are shitty ones that won one.

Exactly. He got hot for a few weeks, but now the real Foles is back. Always thought the Eagles were due for a big fall this season, and this is one of the reasons.

For anyone excited about the game this weekend don't be. Sounds like Sean Lee and Jeff Heath will sit this one out as well. I'm starting to worry this team is going to be rusty as shit for game one of the season.

I agree on Foles. He played over his head during the playoffs, but I don't think the Eagles are due for a big fall this season because Foles is not their regular starter. By the looks of things, Wentz will probably be ready to go sometime during the first month of the season.

I'm skeptical about these guys coming back from ACLs in well under a year. Other than Adrian Peterson, it seems like it takes most guys a while to get back to being themselves.
