The forecast Hurricane Isaias could force the Alabama-Georgia game to be rescheduled. The game could end up moving to Sunday or Monday night if there is a Saturday landfall as forecast.
Nope!!!! Georgia- Alabama showdown is on schedule.

I do like that he's blitzing alot. Fixes the covering-grass issue he seems to do.

Dude had a clean shot on a screen play and just flew off the guy..

It's almost like he likes flying off tackles because he thinks it's a cool look for his hair.

There’s chatter in Philly that Nick Sirianni is back on the hot seat because the offense isn't producing as it should,


it's Hurts, not Sirianni. And I am not a fan of Nick at all, but the issue isn't him. It's simply Hurts isn't a good enough pocket passer to overcome the loss of AJ and a declining Saquon plus the decimation of that OL. Not if he isn't going to carry the ball at least 6+ times a game.

But I get that they already paid Hurts; if someone has to go, it'll be Sirianni before Hurts.
And he keeps changing offensive coordinators every year.

Points:

2025 8th

Roster:
Williams
Smith
Odunze

I'm not seeing wholesale roster changes here to account for their sudden success.

New coach though.

Did Dallas take away Ted Hurst or did Ted Hurst open up our short passing game


i think that for the most part Jalon was coached to get through no more than two reads and then dump it or run. And Ted was probably no higher than 3rd in any progression, for obvious reasons. i did see him get open a couple times on the broadcast, but Jalon was either already throwing the dump off or scrambling by the time Ted popped open. The other option is that Jalon simply isn't reading the field very well, and there's ample evidence that was also the case last night. I just think it was a combination of those things plus others that haven't been brought up here.

6th in yards 13th in points his first year in ATL, but it seems the more time passes from his time with McVay, the less effective his offense has been.
Almost as if it coincides with less talent, huh?
Which talent did he lose his 2nd year in ATL?

Yeah, working in a fun office that celebrates each other is so tragic.
The team started out 0-4 ... at that point, you take your shirts home. It was a great win, but this isn't celebrating a victorious milestone. It's like watching your wife back the car into the garage, she gets out celebrating that she finally did it ... while the car now needs a new paint job after gouging the sides into the wall.

Shirts? Multiple? And let's take a picture ... and let's post it.

Nah.

Nope.

... Look at Atlanta now ...
Stefanski won coach of the year twice ... also won only 8 games over the last 2 years ... we'll see.

You're assuming these guys are taking the same team and getting more out of them. That's clearly not true.
Mayfield
White/Bucky
Evans
Godwin
Otton

Wirfs
Stinnie/Bredeson
Hainsey/Barton
Mauch
Goedeke

2023 20th in points, 23rd in yards
2024 4th in points, 3rd in yards
2025 18th in points, 21st in yards

Where was the dramatic roster turnover that accounted for the sudden jump from 2023 to 2024, and where did they go in 2025?

______________

Ditto Jacksonville:

Lawrence
Etienne
B Thomas
Davis/Hunter
Engram/Strange

Little
Cleveland
Morse/Hainsey
Scherff/Mekari
Harrison

They went from 25th yards, 26th points to 11th yards, 6th in points.

Which of these roster changes accounts for this suddenly potent offense?

______________

Speaking of Jax, let's look at the other side of the ball:

27th points allowed to 8th
31st yards allowed to 11th

DL
Hines Allen
Walker
Armstead
Hamilton

LB
Oluokun
Lloyd
Abdullah/Gardeck

DBs
Campbell
Darby/Lewis
Cisco/Murray
Savage

Which of these roster changes accounts for this suddenly potent defense?

Until he's gone. Look at Atlanta now. Look at Kirk Cousins in Vegas at 38 years old. Everyone was written off while with Robinson except All world talent Bijan Robinson.

The fact that it took him 12+ years, was the point. Imagine being in an environment where you can be below average over a 12+ years and not only keep your job, but get raises? I do think that must be fun. If Tom Brady didn't fall into his lap, he'd probably still be 20 wins away.
