Eh as bad as Brown was, I don't think he would've been bull rushed over and over again like Thuney with success, and Josh Sweat just isn't a dynamic pass rusher. [Reply]

Yep, sad thing is he’s not that old. They tried to replace Fisher with Trent Williams, who is about 2.5 years older than Fisher. Horrible luck to have Fisher go down like this at a reasonably young age. [Reply]

That’s just how they attacked Thuney and Jawaan.
If OBJ was the LT Nolan Smith would have beat him with speed [Reply]

It was just such a wholesale implosion that I just don't think anything mattered. The further away from it I get, the MORE confused I am by it.
I mean it's like the whole team just went out the night before and got ripped. I just don't get it. At all.
Kelce eluded to the grind of playing in the super bowl every year and the wear out it had in the building this year [Reply]

It's inexplicable. The wholesale collapse of the offensive unit is beyond understanding.
Thought experiment: How many players would one need to fix a game in this fashion? [Reply]

Nah, dont over think this. We could see the signs all year that the offense had issues. The teams that had a good DL gave us fits. Its why shit teams like Vegas, Denver, Carolina gave us such a hard time. JJ Watt was spot on when he said that KC could get by teams when one phase of the DL was good. But he said Philly not only had good DE play, their DT's are also exceptional. It was the perfect storm of major strength against our major weakness. All they had to do was rush 4 and they could get to Mahomes. And things got out of hand quickly, like they did against Tampa Bay. [Reply]

And Thuney had been holding up because elite pass rushers were still trying to run around him and his short little arms.
Once the Eagles figured out, nope, just bulldoze him, the last Jenga block holding our OL fell and the whole structure collapsed. [Reply]
