Well, Smith has missed a lot of time in recent years. The days of him playing 16 games are long over. In his defense, at least one of those holding calls yesterday was bogus. And that penalty on Lawrence for making contact with the snapper was laughable.
Which is why I'm not too hard on them. If Dak protects the ball this is a totally different day for the D. It helped that the Eagles tried to make Wentz a runner in a couple of key situations. He went nowhere.
Taco was a healthy scratch (again) and Irving is still milking his ankle injury. Hopefully we get Austin back before the playoffs. Swaim is probably toast.
