Week 1: Eagles vs Lions (Let the season begin)

It's week 1 of a NFL season. Where anything and everything typically happens.  Might be the 1 week of a season where absolutely nothing is guaranteed. 

I expect the win but wouldn't be shocked by a choke job loss. Been there to many times before. 

Maybe not as much this past decade 8-2 🤞 but the previous 20 years, hot damn.

Thanks, you took the words out of my keyboard.

I remember people here prior to week 1 against the Falcons in 2015 and I quote "Won't be surprise if we drop a 50 burger on them". And we all remember how it all went down. 

So, with this team you never know. All games are trap games with the Eagles.

Me at 1 am tbh

Speaking of Stoutland there was an interesting nugget about Reagor on Inside the Birds the other day.

Geoff Mosher said Jeff Stoutland was someone that liked Jalen Reagor and didn’t wanna see him go and he said I guess he spoke up about it and said it would be great to have Jalen Reagor on the team.

I'm curious how our defense is going to play tbh. With the new LB additions can we cover a TE in 2022? Or is Hockenson about to go off again?

Given the DL additions, are we going to stop the run or is Swift about to gash us?

We going to get Pressure /Sacks? Create TO's? Are we going to continue shooting ourselves in the foot with untimely penalties?

Several things we struggled with in 2021. Here's hoping it was just personnel.

with their Oline banged up it will help with all of the above, next week will be a good test though for how things have imroved.

Expecting a win. We are the better team on paper, on a different level really, and we beat the brakes off them last year worse than maybe anyone else did? Anything can happen, and week 1 really isn't indicative of how your season will go, but I'll be very disappointed with anything less than a clean W.

 

Eagles 31
Lions 17
