Eagles Week 6 Takeaways: Wentz, Fulgham, More Injuries

Reading Time: 2 minutesTwo weeks in a row now, the Eagles have blown me away. Against two of the top defenses in the entire league, Pittsburgh and Baltimore, the Eagles scored 29 and 28 points respectively. This all happened with two of eleven offensive starters, plus key contributors to the secondary and occasionally the defensive line. Carson Wentz For whatever reason, Carson Wentz plays better with a depleted core (or at least one that looks like it). Wentz put the team on his back, and brought them back from an ugly first half deficit (down 17-0 at halftime). The...

NFL Fantasy Week 6: Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em

Reading Time: 2 minutesStart ‘Em: QB Ryan Fitzpatrick (MIA) The Dolphins offense is heating up, in large part due to an increase in production from Fitzpatrick. Miami will face the Jets this week, and could give them an absolute walloping. Fitzpatrick should be a no-brainer in your lineup today. RB Phillip Lindsay (DEN) Lindsay will make his return from injury this week, with a great opportunity ahead of him. Two major factors in Denver’s offense will be out this week, in Noah Fant and Melvin Gordon. Denver’s offense will likely lean on Lindsay a lot in week 6, allowing...

What’s Next For These Young Quarterbacks: Darnold, Haskins, Jones

Reading Time: 2 minutesThroughout their short NFL careers, Dwayne Haskins Jr., Daniel Jones, and Sam Darnold have been given little support to be able to justify their upper-first round draft selection. In 2020, Washington, the Jets, and the Giants are all likely to finish with bad records and could very likely end up with Justin Fields, Trevor Lawrence, and Trey Lance (in no particular order). So where would these young QBs go if they’re being dumped for a draft prospect. Here’s what I think: Sam Darnold – Indianapolis Colts Sam Darnold has played three seasons in his career, and...

Why Mike Zimmer Made the Right Decision Against the Seahawks

Reading Time: 2 minutes Analytics if not already dominating the sport of football is soon to completely take over the sport. After Mike Zimmer‘s failed 4th-and-1 attempt from Seattle’s 6-yard-line instead of kicking the field goal to go up 8, many folks criticized his decision, citing an example like this for why analytics should be used less. While it is good to use context as well as analytics everyone saying that they should take the points here is simply wrong even with the context of the game factored in. First let’s look at from the perspective of if the Vikings do...

Battle of Pennsylvania, Eagles v. Steelers Takeaways: Fulgham, Wentz, Playcalling

Reading Time: 2 minutes Honestly, I was impressed with Philadelphia’s performance against Sunday. Well, offensively at the very least but definitely not defensively. Philly’s offense is what it was last year late in the season. The reliance on Travis Fulgham, yet lack of Zach Ertz and Miles Sanders is extremely baffling to me. Also, the lack of balance offensively is concerning to me from a playcalling aspect. How do you expect certain players to play at a certain standard when you overload them or underuse them? It was a hard fought game, and I’m proud of how Philadelphia played....
