Chargers and Eagles open as a pick em

[Fleet]

Im taking one for the team and starting the Philly D against us. All but assures Rivers kills them.

[Classic]

Probably the last winnable game left on the schedule. It'll be difficult but I think Eagles run game is too much for Chargers to handle. 27-20

[Bolt-O]

Mike Williams is Out. Gordon, Barksdale, Pullard, and McGrath are Questionable.

[Millionaire Wussy]

Eagles looked pretty beatable agst NYG 's.

Blount's first 8 runs were nasty. Let these guys inside the ten and they got the big back plowing thru.

Wentz? More like D.Carter-lite. Be surprised if do anything fancy - short dumps to a TE and pound it. Shoukd be a W for Bolts.

I can see them copying Miami's strategy against us of running it first to set up the pass. And we have problems against the run game. I don't see us winning this one unless Philade4phia decides to get too cute and abandons what works. If Philly runs the ball against us consistently - at least through the first half - they'll pull out the win.

Eagles at Chargers

• Eagles: DT Fletcher Cox, DT Destiny Vaeao, CB Ronald Darby, S Corey Graham, S Jaylen Watkins OUT; LB Jordan Hicks, S Rodney McLeodQUESTIONABLE
• Chargers: WR Mike Williams OUT; RB Melvin Gordon, TE Sean McGrath, OT Joseph Barksdale, LB Hayes Pullard QUESTIONABLE

Analysis: The Eagles were able to hold off the Giants in Week 3 despite multiple injuries in the secondary, and now star defensive lineman Fletcher Cox joins the injured who will miss Sunday's game. It could be a get-right game for Philip Riversagainst a shorthanded Eagles defense. The Chargers are still waiting for their first-round pick to get healthy, but are in good health otherwise. Coach Anthony Lynn said Friday that he expects Gordon and Barksdale to play on Sunday.

Fletcher Cox out for Eagles this Sunday

The Eagles will be heading to Los Angeles without defensive tackle Fletcher CoxRonald Darby (ankle), safety Corey Graham (hamstring), defensive tackle Destiny Vaeao (wrist) and safety Jaylen Watkins (hamstring) join Cox on the no-go list. Linebacker Jordan Hicks (ankle) and safety Rodney McLeod (hamstring) are listed as questionable, so the defense could wind up even more short-handed come Sunday morning.

If by real competition you mean a lot of backups, then sure. Only way we're gonna win this season is against a banged up D, which seems Philly has.

[WindsorUK]

I'd just like to see the offense have a game where they have multiple long drives and no turnovers.
We've lost 3 games because our offense( or special teams) is giving the opposition too many short field situations( last week, KC had 1 scoring drive longer than 43 yards-and by that time the game was already over. And the difference in both Miami and Denver games, were short field scores-15 for Dolphins, 43 for Broncos)
If we can figure out how to keep the control of the football, no reason we shouldn't be able to beat the decimated Eagles.

The Eagles had an anemic running game coming into today. Not anymore!

God, this team stinks. They just stink.

God, this team stinks. They just stink.

They had 193 yards rushing last week and 107 the week before. I wish our rushing attack was that good!
