Coach Talk

Baytown Cowboys
Hey, we do appreciate the confidence this past week, Baytown Cowboys. It's a bold move to deploy a starter with zero points (Nate Ebner), while still earning the W. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week and we'll be toast!
Can I Haz Touchdown?
Wait, our starting QB threw two interceptions and no touchdowns? I guess we're presented with a couple of options here: Were the Eagles actually that strong defending the pass, or was Jared Goff just that inaccurate from the pocket? What do you think, Can I Haz Touchdown?, do we continue to start him with confidence?
