I missed most of the game but caught the last 7 minutes or so. I can't believe how bad Oakland is. This is from the article:
Oakland, in eight possessions in the last 20 minutes of the game, went
interception-fumble-punt-missed field
goal-fumble-punt-interception-fumble.
Maybe the field conditions and weather had quite a bit to do with the stats, but yikes, that's beyond bad. Why'd they get rid of Musgrave again? What about Carr, he seems to be competent, but not the up and coming superstar QB they hoped. He looked flat out bad.
Oakland and Dallas, probably biggest disappointments in the league?
Cold does weird s hit to teams as we saw with the GB game and the vikes/seahawks game. Not sure it was that cold in Philly last night, but anything under 40 is probably damn cold when you're coming from Oakland.
I couldnt believe how shit the Oakland OL looked - also a testament to how good Philly's front 4 is.
Thats the match-up that would make me the most nervous having to go there in Jan. Not sure our OL is stout enough to control them up front often enough, and you fall behind? Probably game over.
Their front 4 is at least as good as ours, better against the pass imo.
