Kyle McCord: Drafted by Eagles / Rd 6 Pk 181

[llandz]

There is the Kyle we all know and love and takes the late hit also...

 

[Symphony Steve]

Wouldn't be surprised if the Iggles could get a late-round draft pick for DTR.

Then, next year? Wash, rinse, repeat.

A mccord tuddy and a 49 yard fg by andre szmyt that looked good from about 70. Nice cuse showing in the pre-season.

 

[CanadianSU]

Looking good. Just had to be slightly better than the other guy and the upside factor does the rest.

 

[llandz]

Note to Eagles...forget that other guy.

 

[Cuse4455]

What was that TE doing lol. Like I get the drop your hips on the Curl route but he dipped his head right as the ball got to him

 

[Lukeyloo]

The receiver flat out dropped that 1st down pass. McCord got it out on time, right when it needed to be. Drive killer.

Kyle is looking like a rookie right now. Btw, Gabriel seems like a really likable guy.

Yeah, I think we've seen that the Birds have two really good QB's. It's a battle as to who holds the clipboard for the time being.

As long as McCord stays within himself, he'll win that battle. Like he's doing right now with these quick passes.

Another Int that was not really his fault

He lucked out with the call.

 

[orangefog]

Another drop, and he's getting no time. One would think that the first team line would provide enough time to make some reads

Haha I missed the call, changed the channel as soon as the INT occurred

 

[Lukeyloo]

McCord needs someone like Meeks to pass to. Those receivers weren’t doing him any favors.

"Pathetic" comes to mind. Even a routine screen pass - right to the guy's hands - pffft. Anther guy - right through his hands. Impossible to evaluate a QB with such poor protection and receivers.

If he made the right read and threw it in the right place, he’ll get credit

Was the first team line in?

 

[Symphony Steve]

Was the first team line in?

No. None of the Birds' projected starting OL played today.

They alternated the 3rd and 4th QB's basically series by series in the second half.

They showed nothing. On purpose.

That explains why he had no time then.

One of the color guys, Ross Tucker, I think, mentioned that McCord is far better when he doesn't exit the pocket prematurely. McCord did that twice, and he's not super-athletic. Tucker noted that he's better off just stepping up and moving around the pocket.

It's not as if Cleveland was playing its starters, either.

Hey, it's not all bad. Pretty sure that McCord moved into the #3 spot on the depth chart. There are far worse ways to make a living.

DTR and Kyle split QB reps. Neither played well, but their protection was bad. Cleveland won the battle up front on both sides of the ball. The Eagles had 25 dropbacks and CLE had 6 QB hits, plus a sack and additional pressure. McCord did play better this week than the opener. He settled down and did have some good moments.

Tanner McKee didn’t play. Sirianni said he got enough work in the practices that the Eagles staff wanted to focus on DTR and McCord. The QBs played with both the second and third teams. It looked like they would play two series each and then sit for a couple. The idea was to see them with different blockers and receivers so the coaches could make a more balanced evaluation. I’m not sure that worked as hoped since pretty much everyone struggled.

The Eagles finished the game with 88 yards on 44 plays. That should tell you all you need to know.

I wish the poor blocking could be blamed on one guy. It sure looked like everyone struggled to some extent.
