We need him at a bargain... or they are very unlikely to be in position to grab him.

PSU DB, I need to find a new cliche McKinnistry... theres at least one other guy in the mix I cant think of. Maybe hes 3rd or 4th CB taken. Not out of the question.

I should add, the fact that he is so heavy on zone, or off man hes not going to be the preference for every team. And some will see him more as a S. So... though hes supposedly a great athlete and versatile, hes unlikely to rock the world of teams looking for the lockdown CB with a very high pick. I dont see him as the 1st CB taken, and maybe not 2nd. So I do think theres a chance he falls to the later half of the round, injury or not.

Eagles 30

Chiefs 23

Bonus- Reid's fatarse chokes down some nuggies at halftime. 

Also, Eagles defense gets a pick 6

I don’t know if you’re aware of the circumstances or not, so I’ll elaborate for those who don’t know. The 14-1 Redskins came to the Vet for the final game of that season. The Eagles had been eliminated the week before. The Eagles played all their starters and played all out. The Redskins pulled all their starters out at halftime while leading. The Eagles came back to win on a field goal on the last play of the game. 

It’s a win in the record books so it counts. But no one who watched that game would objectively come away thinking it was a meaningful achievement. 

I’m pretty sure it got Rich Kotite his job with the jets.

Did you hear about Taylor changing the lyrics to one of her song to make it about Travis?  And see Travis' reaction?

Foe what it’s worth, I think Ken Jennings is already a better host than Alex Trebek was. He is so much more quick witted. And his interview skills are massively superior.

I like the Blossom/Amy Farrah Fowler PhD actress more than Jennings.  He talks too fast.  But I also liked Art Fleming more than Trebeck.

Trebek is the Man forever!

Jennings is a cool cat too!

Both Landon and I like her and Ken and Alex.  They all were/are very good.

This is awesome. I’m thinking about actually getting one of these after watching the video on the collaboration and seeing how it works.

Good. I'm not superstitious so Taylor showing up isn't terrifying to me. Hoping bye week helped with the healing and Brian opens the playbook more I assume Julio is getting the ball more. Also would be great if they used 2 backs more

One of the few times a year I agree with ESP… The move for Taylor is to wear a Kelce eagles jersey.

Yeah if you want to turn the LA fans on to giving a rats ass about the Chargers, I'm going to say that offering them Bradyless Bellichick ball probably isn't the way to go.

If Kraft has decided to let Bellichick go, it really is over.

Eagles Revenge  35-31

Smith over 100 yards

Just because physical aging is irrelevant to coaches, unlike players, does not mean that they are just a static performer.  

I get that Belichik has lost a ton of games post Brady with zero success and Brady won a SB (which he was very, very lucky to win, to be honest).  So the conflicting legacy, in the eyes of the masses, has tilted heavily in Brady’s favor.

Brady was barely an elite QB for multiple of the SB’s he and Belichik won together on defensively dominant teams.  When Brady was elite, Belichik was still the most feared coach in the NFL, essentially single handedly running both sides of the football while his coaching staff was a complete carousel getting promoted to high profile jobs.

Damn you all for making me defend Belichik, but the dude was an incredible coach.  WAS.   

Arrogance and age in HOF coaches mix like fine wine and sour milk.  I think Belichik is a legitimately subpar, out of touch coach at this point…but it doesn’t change what he was.

We made so many excuses for the Eagles this year because they have 2 new coordinators.  That was an annual event for the dynasty Patriots.  It was consistently irrelevant for them.  After enough of the assistants crashed and burned as HC’s elsewhere, franchises finally stopped hiring them because they realized those guys were barely doing anything of consequence in NE.

85% chance the eagles win this game.

 

@HazletonEagle

Goedert’s entire game relies on being a violent YAC guy and a very physical blocker.  The opposite of a Zach Ertz.  Everyone talks about when he’ll be back, but not what his limitations might be.  If he can’t throw that arm around in stiff arms and generate a good punch while blocking, he’ll be back, but useless.  How close to 100% do you think he’ll be when he does return?

Eagles are 8-1.  And if I recall correctly, the Pats were usually a little wonky early in the year a lot of times, and then got it together by the end.    Eagles are in good shape, and despite the constant consternation about how the Eagles will fail... they haven't yet.

We still have no idea what or how bad the break is. I don't even know how long he will miss. 

4 weeks is good for non-weight bearing but he might be tentative loading it with a good punch while blocking. 

Still, pretty close to 100% I'm not sure the difference would be noticeable to us.  I don't think the TEs punch too much.  Seems more of a positional blocking position,  and grasping pads and controlling.

6 weeks should be 100%. But I think 4  weeksis just fine. 

Being healthy > HFA.

We should IR Goedert. He'd get a minimum of 5 weeks off, and would be back close out the last quarter of the season.

Might also need that roster spot for Quez, Cam or Evans.

Why do we need it for Quez?
