That was fun, thank you 🙂

I agree with everything you said.

It was tough to see them, not be able to get a yard or two when they needed it that many times in one game.

They showed heart in this game, as they did for the whole season.

I think better than expected sums it up well.

On to the first round of the playoffs!

Tough cold-weather game across the country and early in the day for a West Coast team.

Defense came up big on several 4th downs.

I’ll take the gritty win 🙂

Offense did alright. 🙂

Rams kept punching back, that was good to see.

And

A Win!

Eagles just looked better.

Defense played well enough to win.

Oline needs some time together.

Defense played well.  Got some pressure on the QB.

if they can get healthy on offense, they would be competitive.

Wow!

Best wishes BT!

I don’t think they lost ground, I think the draft kept them even for this year.

from the draft reports it seems that most of the players weaknesses are things that are coachable.  Given that most of the player’s strengths is tenacity, my guess is cumulatively, they will take to coaching.

I like the idea that they will platoon the Dline.

provided the Oline was fixed in free agency, they should be pretty darn good.

I also think he is a returner, that combined with being a willing blocker could make him very useful on special teams.

They are going to platoon waves of relentless defensive lineman!

competition for playing time, with a group of fierce competitors should make them all better. 🙂

Best player at a position of need that fits their scheme?

So far the draft makes sense to me based on needs and players available. Keeping the third this year and the draft that is deeper in positions me like wide receiver also makes sense. I wouldn’t be surprised to see them use a couple of their later, pics to move up to another player they want.

They will have a lot of young talent on the team a year from now and may not need as many picks next year to fill out the roster.
