Like I Expected, The Cowboys Are Featuring DeMarco Murray

LeSeanMcCoyvsDeMarcoMurray1I knew the Cowboys were going to be putting the ball in the hands of DeMarco Murray.  Eagles linebacker Mychal Kendricks made a great play to cause a fumble or the Cowboys would have probably kicked a field goal.  A conservative game plan is what the Birds are going to see the rest of the way.

In pass coverage, the linebackers have to move up on Murray so that Kyle Orton can’t check the ball down to him.  In both the passing game and the ground game, it’s Murray, Murray and Murray.  He’s taking the pressure off of Orton.

Foles has got to get rid of the ball and use his legs to escape the pressure. Murray has put some fear in the defense with the hits HE is laying on THEM????? WTF!

the eagles defense needs to step up and stop the run…. everyone knew it would be run, run, short pass to Witten…. the eagles can’t cover tightends and they are getting no pressure on Orton… hope everyone took their heart meds

The Eagles defense looks a step slower than the Cowboys O, and the Eagles O is off stride. Foles looks indecisive, starting his throw and then pulling the ball down. Either he doesn’t trust his reads, the Cowboys are doing something for which he isn’t prepared, or he is getting the yips, aka choking. Birds need a turnover bad.

Foles is playing a game your new hero (Newton) would dream of.

Not enough…but if it was Newton, You’d be creaming….but because its foles, it could be better……

In fact, Newton wa s15 of 27 2 tds and a pick for 20 points and he;s your hero, but Foles is 12 of 16 for 197 and 2 tds for 17 pts in a HALF and he “could and should be better:

All I am saying is he does not look comfortable. He is getting a lot of pressure and Shady is not getting off enough in the ground game r screen game to slow the Cowboys down. It could be he needs to play better, the O line needs to block better or he coaches need to scheme it up better. Its probably a combination of all three, but I want them to do something better to get the offense going up and down the field like they should be doing.

Like what? Like spreading McCoy and Jackson out along with Cooper, and an O Lineman playing wide out to stretch the field and the defense? Did that all first quarter that is why we are still up. Foles needs to step his game up, get rid of the ball faster or take off Period!!! The Dallas defense is coming, and he better get mobile FAST!!!!

He’s 12 of 16 for 197 and 2 tds (with 2 throwaways).

that’s amazing btw…you twits are incredible…..The Eagles have scored on 3 of their 5 posessions…they scored 17 pts….right on Foles average…..

BTC – At no point in that game yesterday, was the defense “blowing the game”….what the F were you talking about? The defense held Dallas to 10 first half points and came up with two turnovers…and they were considered to be blowing the game? you are ridiculous…The 2nd half the offense didn’t do much of anything, except for the running game…The defense is what won that game! and you’d be saying the same damn thing if another QB, who’s name I will not mention was QB of the game…open your damn eyes and see football as a team game where everyone has a job to do!

Hey fantasy boyfriend was 1 for 7 with a int today, and Alt (up 10-0 at the time) had first and goal at the 8.

TS’ fantasy BF then got bailed out by his D who Picked 6ed their way back into the game.

Foles today played about 3x better than her fantasy BF did, but you won’t hear that from her pretender ass.

This was his second worst game behind the 1st Dallas game. Dallas has done a great job vs Foles. I don’t expect NO to do the same.

he didnt play Great, but he played well, and minimized mistakes when the cowboys defense played unexpectantly well. If you think it was all Foles, watch the game again. Dallas were playing the WR’s very well and bringing the pressure. Foles “did his job” and took a 3-5 team to the playoffs, along with Shady, The D and their turnover creating abilities, and Chip Kelly. So much hate on this site, not from you dag, but some other trolls on this site, its pretty ridiculous.
