I asked someone in a front office this week: what is the probability Nick Herbig is currently the best pass rusher on the Steelers?

Said their answer on this fun show with @sheilkapadia.bsky.social!

In the second half of the last three games, the Eagles offense has had 19 possessions. They have gone three-and-out on a league-high 58% of them.

13 punts
2 turnovers
2 TDs
2 end of game

Lack of adjustments vs. opposing staffs have been a disaster.

Eagles offense has nothing to hang its hat on. Below league average in:

* EPA per drive
* Success rate
* Explosive play rate
* RB rushing success rate

And that's with 10 of 11 starters healthy on an expensive, veteran unit.

Through six weeks, the Eagles are -1 in point differential.

They have been out-gained in every single game this season.

3 9 98

Sheil Kapadia @sheilkapadia.bsky.social · 1d

Statistically (EPA per drive), that's the worst defensive performance by the Eagles since Vic Fangio became their defensive coordinator.

10 possessions: gave up 5 TDs and did not force a turnover.

That decision to bunt Stott is as furious as I've been about any Topper managerial decision during this four-year run.

You're not playing for one run there. You're losing! It's the year 2025 - you cannot bunt in that spot. Managerial malpractice.

This feels like an all-time CBC meter game.

C’mon. One mistake. One swing. Can’t waste this masterful start from Luzardo (I know, Snell is dealing).

The Jets offense had 19 plays of 10+ yards today -- the most of any team in Week 5.

No other team this season that produced that many plays of 10+ yards in a game lost.

Sheil Kapadia @sheilkapadia.bsky.social · 5d

We had the three best single-game offensive performances of the season today, based on EPA per drive:

1. Colts vs. Raiders
2. Seahawks vs. Bucs
3. Bucs vs. Seahawks

The Colts have produced 3 of the 7 best single-game offensive performances of the season.

Ohhhh Johnny Ganz.

After today's disastrous loss, the Cardinals are now 14-25 with him as their head coach, and their defense over that three-year span ranks 32nd in success rate.
