Band at Fritzel’s on Bourbon St playing Fly Eagles Fly in the wee hours, with @denizselman33.bsky.social, no big deal.
Jaire Alexander played as many snaps for the Eagles as Frank Gore. Legends, both.

Howie Roseman: "If you win $100, it's not like you have $100 that's found [and thus treated differently from the initial endowment], it's still your $100."

This refers to the "house money effect" on risk-taking, and how it can lead to suboptimal decisions.

In 2023 the Niners bragged that their practices are more intense, longer and more frequent (in terms of padded practice) than the other 31 teams. Before this season, they were 32nd in adjusted games lost over Shanahan’s 8 seasons, 23rd or worse in 7 out of 8 seasons.

Thinking about this paper by Atanasov et al. The best forecasters make frequent, incremental updates to their beliefs.

Laboratory research has shown that both underreaction and overreaction to new information pose threats to forecasting accuracy. This article explores …

The coaches need to let their killers do their thing. Pass the f’ing ball. (0.65 epa/dropback, -0.2 / rush)
Old and busted: Run the ball, Andy.

New hotness: Pass the ball, Kevin & Nick.

Who had the more memorable Eagles career: Z’Darius Smith or Frank Gore?
October 13, 2025 at 3:57 PM
I have never been to the Linc, but Philadelphia sports fans should be knowledgeable enough to STFU when the offense is lining up for a play. Come on.
The #Eagles having to use silent cadence at home has been annoying me for a few years now.
First play: Steen is clearly slowed down by having to do the tap thing... (1/2)

Eagles benefited from an iffy DPI call on Patrick Surtain. But that’s why you take a shot! Sometimes you get a completion, sometimes you get a flag! Aggressiveness pays off when you have talented QB and receivers.

The vast majority of professional athletes have nothing interesting or insightful to say. BG is not that guy, he is awesome. And over the years, Bo has built a level of trust and comfort where you get a “two dads talking” level podcast.

@sheilkapadia.bsky.social @daboulciff.bsky.social

Given recent events surrounding the soap opera that is the Eagles, can we have a little Birds 24/7 reunion and have T-Mac on the pod? He’s so good at times like these.

Kyle Shanahan, please never change.
---> JAX (14) @ SF (3) <---
SF has 4th & 5 at the JAX 5, Q2 00:40

Recommendation (STRONG): 👉 Go for it (+3.4 WP)
Actual play: 👟🏈 E.Pineiro 23 yard field goal is GOOD, Center-J.Weeks, Holder-T.Morstead.

Another infuriating win for the defending Super Bowl champion Eagles where they scored 31 points and never trailed on the road against an undefeated opponent
September 28, 2025 at 8:30 PM
I think it would behoove the coaches to “f**king score points” and stop this running the clock nonsense.
September 28, 2025 at 7:43 PM
Eagles offense has looked great this half. BUT that was a cowardly sequence (draw on third and long followed by FG). That was 4 down territory, live a little, coach!
September 28, 2025 at 6:25 PM
Reminder that the Niners have been bragging for years about how much tougher and faster their practices are than the rest of the league. (The rest of the league uses modern soft tissue injury prevention and load management methods.)

The sweaty secret to the 49ers’ success: Practices are faster than other teams’
Nearly every player who's been elsewhere says the 49ers' practices are more fast-paced and grueling than any other spot they've been.

Let the record show that this game was won primarily because Sean McVay is not playing to win, in terms of fourth down decision-making.
September 21, 2025 at 8:20 PM
The announcer says ruefully that McVay is "gonna have to settle for the field goal attempt". He had no choice, he doesn't have freewill.

We should definitely ban the tush push, it’s bad for business.

The Eagles treat the first 4 games of the season as effective preseason, when they make adjustments to personnel and scheme. Two unconvincing wins against obviously inferior teams. The schedule won’t be so friendly later this year.

Team dynamics are a kind of collective action problem with multiple equilibria. Sirianni has done well in selling a collection of stars on “whatever it takes”.
