A very interesting Eagles Rushing yards stat. (1 Viewer)

[ilvdsnts]

So, the Eagles are currently ranked 4th in the NFL in Rushing yards(153.8). The 2 teams the are sandwiched around them at 3rd and 5th?....Failclowns(160.8) and Browns(147.3) who are the 2 teams we just beat in the last 2 weeks.

And Hurts is a big chunk of that. I think we can handle Sanders, Hurts is the true threat both passing and rushing. Hopefully he sits out another week.

Doubt it. If he's able to play, they're going to play him. The Eagles need just one win to secure not just the division but the conference top seed. I think they're gonna throw everything they've got at the Saints because if they win, they'd have a "mini BYE" in week 18 and then an actual BYE. That is a lot of time for their key guys to get right and heal.

Except he’s still hurt and the sooner you play him, the better the chance for re-injury.

They already said as much. I meant I hope he's still not ready and sits. This is not the time to even remotely risk Hurts aggravating an injury on his throwing shoulder.

Hurts isn’t playing. No sense of further injuring that dude. They have a team that can win on the road when he’s healthy

Especially if one of our defensive players ‘accidentally’ drives that sore shoulder into the turf during an otherwise routine tackle.
