When the Eagles cut it to 4, I was expecting shrinkage out of Kirk, Mike, and Stefanski...didn't happen...
Shout out to the Dark Elf as I did not hear Fletcher Cox called once... Hill too...Tell me who is a better RB2 than Mattison...Kendrick and Barr playing to their respective contracts, Rhodes not so much...I'd trade him and put in Hughes...I expected a bounce back vs Alshon, didn't happen...

@"Havoc1649" said: Well this suck, it erased half the post. Point is, maybe the coaches have finally figured out how to let Cousins be put in the best position for him to succeed and not let their personal philosophies dictate a path well outside of Cousins wheelhouse.
Everyone needs to be patient...  this is Stefanski's first full year as an OC.  Kubiak and Dennison have been suggesting their twists and ideas to the offense and running game.  It was always going to take a little time to get the coaches and players comfortable with this new scheme.

It seems like we started finding some balance last week against the Giants and again this week against the Eagles.  This is the type of offense we need to beat the good teams on our schedule.

It actually reminds me a lot of Shurmur's offense from 2017.  We can run, but also pass out of heavy sets with Rudy, Irv, and Conklin in the game.  We have a nice screen game...  Lots to like the past couple weeks.

Maybe we should have acquired Cousins before the Eagles playoff game in 2018?  ;)

Lifetime stats against the Eagles.

I was a little "upset" that he/they juuust missed on those two other could-have-been touchdowns (deep to Diggs and out of bounds in end zone to Thielen).  I can't complain about 4 tds though. 

I was truly upset that Diggs marred Kirk's stats with those stupid drops, and mostly the helmet deflected interception.  That was even worse because Doesn't-make-interceptions-because-of-coverage-skills-Sendejo was the one to get the lucky bounce.  He played 93 games for the Vikings and only oops'd into six interceptions and they have to go and gift him his seventh career pick...    :s
