His numbers are absolutely pathetic for where he was drafted. tbf before his injury, he was looking good and promising. 20, 14, 9, 23, 12 (full ppr formats) got injured and now it's 13, 9, 6 Link to post Share on other sites

No excuses for all the drops, but he's getting the job done on the ground. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully they get it together and give him some room to operate. At this point I need to see it before he is back in the lineup. By see it I mean stat sheet/ box score. No way I am watching another Eagles game for a while. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I gave up on Eagles football a few weeks back already, welcome to the club, not even Metcalf could get me to turn on the tv last night. Link to post Share on other sites

How about the first drive of the game.. they start with a 1st and 5 due to a penalty then proceed to throw three consecutive incompletions. Morons. Link to post Share on other sites

I felt pretty terrible trading for Watson because we're all just left hoping for a situation to improve, and then the unlikely outcome of BOB being fired freed Watson to being a top-5 QB no question. What's worse here is I keep waiting for that "shoe to drop" moment that "man things can't get worse, they have to get better, these are professionals," but I really feel pessimistic and hopeless when it comes to Sanders outlook improving. They just aren't getting it and there hasn't been a material shake-up to the team that has the team and coaching staff on high alert and to force them to change their ways. It's just not getting better, and I regret ever trading for this guy. I cannot stand the Eagles anymore and I really want out, but we're all just stuck with this crap. The only way this is getting better is if Pederson wakes up one day and realizes "I need to give our RBs" as much as they can handle, and don't get away with it. But that is so unlikely. The other two ways this COULD get better is if Wentz is benched and somehow Hurts pulls a mini-Herbert moment where "he wasn't ready" yet blows the team away in expectation. The last way is clean house and the team has the BOB effect where they improve with new blood... What would Vegas peg those odds at? +1000 right now for any of those to happen? This is hopeless and it's really out of all of our control. All we can do is keep starting and hope for the best, or just bench for someone else to give us low upside points.

daethfromabove1979 874 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Can't blame the coaches for having Boston Scott out there when they were trying to hurry things up, Scott has shown he is reliable and can catch the ball, Sanders is dropping everything. Link to post Share on other sites

Blame Sanders, blame Wentz, blame the line, blame Pederson, any way you dice it: without big changes this guy will be really tough to start in week 14, even with the dearth of quality RBs. Literally becoming a touch decision to play this guy over Drake or any other mid-range timeshare RB. Link to post Share on other sites

Literally becoming a touch decision to play this guy over Drake or any other mid-range timeshare RB. Not arguing there, I feel the same. And eyes closed twice on Sunday, Drake over Sanders all day every day. Beginning of the year it might of been a toss up. But now Drake is balling and Miles is on a sinking Eagles ship. I have both on the same squad, it's a mess. Just my luck as one heats up, the other sheites himself. For the love of god I just pray they bench Wentz. Don't care how bad Hurts is ... give us some hope at least. I mean do it for the Eagles fans out there. They're all crying bloody murder And can Pederson already. He lucked into a 1 year historic Philly team with Foles magic winning the SB. Wayyy too overrated HC. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
