Point #5 is key. The Eagles have gotten significant contributions from their 2021 draft class. That’s a refreshing change.

 

[CyphaPSU]

Seems like the black pants and/or black jerseys are no longer the alternate uniforms for the Birds this season.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

as usual, the Birds start slow, and allow WFT to march down the field on their opening drive.

With the PAT, it's 7-0, WFT, with 11:54 left in the 1st qtr.

 

[WestSideLion]

Not a great start on defense for the Eagles. Zoinks.

 

[yboby]

Eagles have been fortunate to face practice squad QBs in their last two games. Today may be different.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Birds O goes for it on 4th & 1 at the WFT 23 (or thereabout), and doesn't make it.

Wake up Birds!

 

[WestSideLion]

And that’s how you get beat. Sigh. Hurts was late on 3rd and short pass and they get stuffed on 4th and 2.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

WFT with a FG with 2:00 left in the 1st qtr, makes it 10-0, WFT

Boston Scott w the jerk route

 

[s1uggo72]

Kick it!!

 

[Tom McAndrew]

1st & goal at the 5 for the Birds ... 2 runs that gain little, an incomplete, and they go for it on 4th down, and Boston Scott runs it in for the TD!!!

 

[s1uggo72]

Like I said kick it!! Lol

 

[Tom McAndrew]

With the PAT, it's 10-7, WFT, with 11:49 left in the half.

 

[WestSideLion]

Important Eagles TD there.

 

[s1uggo72]

In college that would be targeting

 

[s1uggo72]

Looks to me the only way the Iggles stop the run is to score some points and make them throw

 

[WestSideLion]

Man, the Eagles defense has started poorly.

Heineke is 10-10 for 132 yards. They are back to making meh QBs look like gods. Have to change that somehow.

 

[WestSideLion]

Hopefully both guys are ok. That looks like a small area with a lot of people right on the sideline.

Agree. Must be a Pennsylvania thing

 

[s1uggo72]

Need to score here

Can’t see the game someone step up and give play by play

Game stopped I believe big Nate Herbig is hurt. He of the NFL all body team
A boy named sue takes his place

 

[s1uggo72]

Eagles stopped 3 down punt to the 5

 

[WestSideLion]

This has turned into a typical slow Eagles start on offense.

 

[s1uggo72]

I can’t hear. Is that a Wendell Smallwood sighting

 

[laKavosiey-st lion]

Beers on me when we meet

 

[s1uggo72]

Wtf trying 55 yd fg
Good 16-7 wtf

 

[Tom McAndrew]

2 FGs by WFT (1 with 1 sec left in the half) make it 16-7, WFT, at the half.

it is.

SMH. Heading to different watering hole to change the birds luck

 

[WestSideLion]

Good lord. That final WFT possession was just brutal defense by the Eagles. They had them pinned at their own 5 and allow Heineke to march them to a FG.

For a team with the playoffs on the line, that was an awful half of football. They have work to do.

The Iggles‘ defense is making Heinicke look like a Heisman winner.

 

[NittPicker]

WTF was happy to let the half run out but Sirianni was nice enough to stop the clock for them. I get the fact he was looking for a defensive stop on third down but it was third, short, and very makable. Let the clock run in that situation and get to the locker room.
