I don't know what about that AJ interview that got people buzzing positively again, felt like a nothingburger to me.

I’ve said this in the past, and it’s been like this since the end of the Andy Reid era. there’s always someone in that organization that likes to run their mouth and start drama when there’s turbulence and things aren’t going well. that’s not their job inside that organization. Their job is not to give a juicy quote or leak inside intel to reporters.  i couldn’t give a flying F about Jeff McLane, Tim McManus, or whoever that reports it. That’s their job when some moron in the organization wants to say something idiotic or something they shouldn’t on the record or even leaked. The WAYYYYYY bigger issue is there’s somebody from the inside saying crap that shouldn’t be doing it.

And most of the eagles Fanbase is gonna get upset at the reporter for putting it out. Meanwhile, I guarantee you the person who’s leaking it knows that the fan base well enough and knows they are going to be more upset at the reporter putting it out there than him for saying it. So he is going keep doing it. he’ll just keep doing it knowing he’s not gonna feel the ire or be held accountable by the fan base. it’s gonna be the reporter that gets the backlash rather than him or the organization that can’t keep their crap in house or mouths closed.

Reality should be the Fanbase should be irritated that somebody nside the organization can’t shut the F up and do their job. Their job is not to go to mclane or mcmanus or Kapadia or whoever the F reporter they wanna go to to leak inside info that would be damaging.  At some point in time hold the Fing people inside that building Fing accountable for allowing continuous Fing leaks to get brought to the forefront. I can give a flying F about the journalist. Because if if is not Jeff McLane, kempski, esp or ej smith then it’s  gonna be some other dbag reporter 4 years from now. 

Sorry, I don't buy this at all.  Different regimes, coaches, players...and there's John in Accounting who secretly leaks info to the media for decades and every time it happens the organization doesn't have a way to find out who it is?  :lol:

The media is negative and always stirring up controversy.  Their questions in every press conference are like an interrogation.  The local Philly reporters are TATERs with a press pass.  Every time the team is on a losing streak, the media all of a sudden has "anonymous sources" or "sources close to the situation" that make up crap and fans fall for it.  They fall for it every time which is why they keep doing it.  If the things leaked were true, the coaches and players and front office would be pissed and work to find out who was doing it. 

We know how tight lipped they are.  They'll say they're not making changes to coaches or roster then fire a coach or cut a player.  They won't tip their hand at all about draft picks or free agent signings.  Somehow, draft and free agency targets, strategy, scheme and those type of things don't get leaked by the mystery staffer who knows these things and has been there for decades, who knows everything that happens in the locker room, practices and meeting rooms.  But they only leak the anonymous disgruntled player ripping apart the locker room.  Right, sure, ok.  :lol:

My guess would be situational play calling and execution mistakes.

People forget that the Eagles offense took off when Steichen took over play calling.  Nick was running a rather unimaginative offense that was too reliant on the passing game.  I'm not convinced Brian Johnson has the knack for situational play calling, either.  

My guess would be he’s unhappy either with coaching or with some players. And I don’t really blame him for that. I agree this offense is really not good despite all the talent.

I think it is a little late to chill...this has been festering for a few weeks. Where there is smoke there is fire and AJ is just a symptom of a bigger issue. For all we know the media may have been trying to keep it internally. I think there is a serious locker room issue already and it has manifested onto performance on the field.

Wait, hold up. You think the media was holding onto juicy click bait and ratings fodder?  :roll:

I thought it was Josina, not John.   And I thought she was a reporter, not in accounting.

While he's making it a bit bigger than needed, the Brown criticism is strange to me.

When guys like Hurts, Smith, Mailata, etc are visibly frustrated and making comments, something is definitely wrong and Brown isn't the issue 

Just my two cents 

This is exactly what AJ said today.  Every player on the team is frustrated.  Kelce has been WAY more visibly upset in games.  Stomping around, shouting, cursing.  But the narrative/stereotype of the diva WR makes everyone thing AJ Brown is a problem when he simply shakes his head.

Don't believe women or Brown when they say they aren't mad

Sirianni: AJ how do you like those play calls?

Brown: They were fine. 

Sirianni: Are you sure?

Brown: I said they were fine.

You don’t have to buy it. But the fact of the matter is you are an eagle fan are going to go after Jeff McLean any the reporter way before you should go after the guy that said something to Jeff mclane. People on this blog have already shown that. You’re more upset at Jeff mclane as a reporter for reporting something said to  him something then the person Fing gave it to him. That’s already been proven on Twitter and the blog with eagles fan. I’m not talking Marcus hayes. He’s simply a hack, I’m talking about actual reporters who are around and cover the team daily 

I could give a flying F less about Jeff McLane or any media reporter. But the fact remains literally go look at Twitter and go read this blog. Everybody is more upset at mclane than somebody giving him that information. As somebody who’s worked as a reporter for four years before changing careers, McLane didn’t just make up a story. You might not like when he released it or not. It’s may always be negative with him but somebody within the organization said it. And the sad reality is most eagles fans rather be mad at Jeff McLean for putting it out there then being mad at the organization for having somebody do that repeatedly. And I went into a list of times this is happened with the Eagles dating back to 2010 in 2021 in the blog. It was a good 25-30 stories deep that were leaked and by various different reporters. And those stories didn’t have to just be leaked with critical details or quotes. 

go look, on Twitter and even here, more people were upset with Jeff McLane for reporting it, then the person saying it and what the person said. You don’t think the source who’s all leaking it to him knows he’s not gonna face any repercussions or any of the ire because every Eagles fan is going to back the organization and go after the reporter rather than grilling him as a source or the team. That happens every Fing time. Literally every time this happens fans go after the reporter as opposed to an organizational source or the actual content he’s willing to make public (and good portion of reports turned out to be accurate and corroborated by either other local media and sometime national media— not Marcus hayes he’s a moron that writes opinion pieces.)

I am sure EPS back in 2013 just miraculously came up with the story of desean Jackson was in a gang by himself. Lol. But I forgot Eagles fans like to think the media just miraculously makes up sources and quotes from sources because they’re simply out to get the Eagles and  no one in the organization is remotely saying anything to them. Yeah. Sure. Right.

*** let me point out when I wrote that it was not about marcus hayes. marcus Hayes doesn’t cover the team on a daily basis and is not around the team daily to have the type of sources where I would believe something he says. And most of the time, his his articles anre opinion pieces. So he is excluded in this. What I am talking about is someone like Jeff McLane, Tim McManus, EJ Smith, and guys like that who cover the team on a daily basis, would have credible sources. so when something is said to them and they report it, it’s probably pretty accurate from the source with inside that organization. They didn’t just make it up 

Vibes on the team after that AJ presser appear to be back to where they were before all the losing.

Really? Jordan Davis was a well known target. Jalen Carter was a well known target, even with the "he's not sliding past #10" report which was literally the Eagles pick. Cam Jurgens was another one that Tony Pauline said Eagles love him and will take him if he's there. That's just the last 2 years and I'm sure there's other stuff I'm missing.

I think you missed my point. There is no leak.  There is no legitimate person leaking info. The reporters make this BS up.  Every time when they are losing a few games.  Every time.

You don't hear these leaks from mystery man on staff with all the inside info about:  draft picks, free agent targets, scheme, injury reports, play designs, strategy, etc.

It's BS and made up, and always after a string of losses when the fanbase is frothing at the mouth calling for everyone to be fired and cut.  They know their audience.

Are those "leaks" though?  Howie himself acknowledged it's no secret they target linemen high.  Carter is the one who said something himself about the Eagles which was a big factor.  Knowing Kelce has talked about retiring for several years and that they drafted Landon Dickerson to be his replacement who then moved to LG made it an easy speculation they would look at another Center to replace him.  You also have public knowledge of who they scouted at the combine, pro days, who they interviewed, etc.  You can fill in the gaps from there.  

There are also lots of other "reports" of who they like in the draft, who they're going to sign in free agency or target in trades that turn out to not be true. Speculation based on available facts and past patterns isn't a direct leak from a mole in the organization.

If Carter said something about the Eagles..... that's a leak.
