Our gunner was just pushed in the back and knocked down on the punt coverage... no flag and it was out in the open for all to see. 🙄

yeah, it was all the way down the field then pushed him down - blatant

7 days to come up with an offensive gameplan and this is what MLF dials up in the first two series.

They had an easy 3 yards with Jacobs against that defensive front. Even if they didn’t convert, they were at a field position where they could have gone for it on 4th if they just didn’t go backwards.

[SeaBass]

Olé pass blocking ain't gonna get it done.

Ugh... that doesn't look good for Jenkins.

That's the second time that someone on PHI has basically speared a Packers player.  The LB just drilled his helmet into Jenkins' shoulder.

[adambr2]

Great whiff tackle by Gary.

[OldHeidelberg]

This is really going to get ugly. Didn't even show up.

[yourout]

Getting Walker back was not an addition.

[Fear The Chorizo]

Philly is a damn good team, and if they can't generate a pass rush without blitzing it's going to be a very long day

Also, Packer offense has to do something besides 2.5 yards and a cloud of dust.

Defense mightaswell send the house repeatedly at will and force Hurts to make a play with his arm - hoping he makes a few bad decisions

Someone help me understand how this isn't targeting.

 Targeting is NCAA football.

I'll disagree.  He hasn't made any big plays, but he has been in position and solid tackling. 

[OldHeidelberg]

Nixon doesn't even look like himself on returns anymore. 

[adambr2]

Whatever return magic Nixon had a couple years ago is long gone. I’m just hoping every return that he can hold onto the football.

Like adambr2 said above it is certainly something I am watching today. If they can't pick themselves up and compete today it reflects badly on him. The players know he screwed up that game last week, just like having faith in your QB to win games for you the players need to know the coach at least won't lose them for you. There is enough talent on this roster to win this game but I could see them getting blown out if they get down a couple of scores early.    

Is 10-0 a couple of scores early? Just asking.

yes it is compared to personnel with him not on the field - him and Cooper are dynamic as LBs.  Part of the issue why we rarely see it is the defensive line in front of them are anything but impactful/disruptive.

 

[adambr2]

The hit on the kickoff return could have been called for a personal foul, but sometimes it gets missed. It got missed. The recovery could have and maybe should have been overturned to Nixon, but if there’s any sliver of doubt they often just stick with the call on the field. They did.

If those are the things that the Packers are worried about right now, they’ve already lost.

[HarryDoyle]

This is men vs. boys.

[CheezWizHed]

Brett Favre "punt" special... 

[Fear The Chorizo]

That's just a ridiculous play and INT by Slay...but not the right spot to go with the ball right there, either.

Players vs play makers.

[OldHeidelberg]

I was just thinking a Love pick was coming soon. 

[Sixtolezcano]

Love, just keep throwing deep.

[duewizard]

Great play by the CB but that ball shouldnt be thrown there

I long ago resigned to the fact he is basically McCarthy without the super bowl.

 

[adambr2]

Love just the latest in the line of mediocre QBs getting a bag in the last year or two.
