Your benevolence is much appreciated. Keep the warm fuzzy thoughts coming.

My main purpose of being is to be a good person. Believe it or not. But I also don’t believe in being fake. Not held back fearing shame in being myself.

So with that understanding….do feel to be real(hopefully relationship considered friends even) there are times to be an Ahole or d1ck. Believe we all need people not afraid to calm us out when we step below levels of ourselves.Not be a Ahole behind anybodies back secretly. Not in ways that person layer is questioning and thinking about realizing that guy was kind of being a d1ck. Straight forward very obviously Ahole response making plainly aware the other screwed up and it was below their standard. Not going to baby any situation..no tip toe around pretending. Straight shooter…call it like it is see it. Applies everywhere to everything. Realize it likely comes off harsh at first encounters….but believe over any lengths….its exactly to be appreciated and a desired interaction.

Won’t get left wondering guessing about what I think and feel. No doubting about whether I just was faking going along with things to appease and avoid conflicts or disagreements….while secretly messaging behind your back to others opposite thoughts.

No Mas…and others here…we’ve interacted and opposed each other over so many things going on? I don’t even know how many years. This board began on PE.com I signed up for with using dial up internet. Those guys were harsh…no holding back anything. Think majority read…fearing to even post and expose themselves to repercussions of contributing. So…yeah I admittedly took things possibly as far as ever …with Sesame Street’s The Count. Multitasking….entertainment…having a laugh and some fun…while also bringing knowledgeable Eagles intel and info. Maybe I’m the only one that smiled or smirked…even chuckled….heck it was funny while making my point(didn’t let heavy tons of coming across as d1ck interfere).

Last season had doubts. This season has questions rather than doubts. Howie continues to make the Roster both deeper and younger.

See this is where you along with most others get lost. Not too disagree about the importance of talent. Any teams potential ceiling will be capped by quality of talented roster. This seasons questions are placed exactly surrounding my key doubts. Last offseason my understandings about Siri’s O lead to me place full optimism with teams ceiling and potential firmly placed with how far they progressed the O with Moore. Never doubted we could dominate consistently rushing the ball. We’ve dominated rushing the ball every year since Hurts has started. Sanders, Swift(just not Gainwell haha chuckle chuckle…only funny because it’s true) so Saquan running behind our Moving Mountains labeled OLine just wasn’t anything to question or doubt. Kelce retired. He was reading the D and calling the blocking assignments accordingly for our O. Not any dig at Beef Jurgy….just pointing out just how crucial the many tasks our O relied on our C to perform. Kelce was a steadfast leader….no BS call it like he saw it entrenched Eagle to the core. Jurgens would perform C duties of block and snap. NFL pro player basic job responsibilities is no joke. To do that is beyond any achievements I ever even got close to achieving personally. Loss of Kelce was a huge loss that brought large O weight of responsibility to be transferred. All that HOF missing loss fell on our QBs shoulders. Already from day one as a pro Hurts DNA leading has been on display. Seems like he’s more reserved personality than Kelce(exact opposite approaches towards exactly the same competitive leadership goals). {on a personal note: I clearly am more the Kelce demeanor and approach} It’s really just a glossed over seemingly unrecognized understanding surrounding Hurts age. He always conducted himself with the highest maturity. His maturity well beyond his years still can’t make up for just pure wisdom gains that occur over time with age. Hurts at 26 already experienced mind boggling situations as a football player. Starter at the biggest college. Benched at huge college game moment. After demotion to backup stepping up delivering in huge game moment leading that same team. Then transferring across country to a completely opposite O and conference. Answering any questioning about himself in the largest fashion possible…he performed at a mid boggling high level. Just unbelievable season! Only to be denied college ultimate individual achievement award to Burrow. Hurts wins the Heisman after his performance 8 out of 10 of college seasons ever. But not that season! Burrow planted a new high bar. Broke every record in a incredible O scheme, at a top elite LSU program, tossing to WRs that have already proven to be the two best elite WRs in the NFL…not just college. Heck even them being labeled elite only in the current NFL feels like discrediting just how special Justin Jefferson and JaMarr Chase are. Firmly believe and expect they’ll go down as Alltime elite WR. Anyway…Hurts masterclass performance responding to adversity was denied…pure tough luck of timing…nobody was hearing Burrow for the Heisman that season…ever. Hurts comes on as a pro to a team just inked in their clear intentions towards their Franchise QB Wentz. There was no opportunity for Hurts to compete earning the starting job. Then takes over as starter his second season. Green rookie HC, capped out low talent roster coming off winning four games. Draw up much of any scenario that was ideally picture perfect for failure. No QB survives the Eagles 2021 season situation. Name any all time QB…that best ever? He would have struggled big time. Dan Marino would have looked like a shell of himself. Would have witnessed him just week in and week out furious…red faced chewing Quez and Reagor out. Hurts though? Overcame…survived. Second year starting went all the way to the SB. Where he displayed exactly what he’s made of. All he responds to as being important afterwards is going back and WINNING the SB. 24 years old…second round pick….benched in college….nothing but HurtsHaters doubting everything about him….he's the guy focusing our whole organization on only achieving the greatest prize. SB MVP…against elite AR HC, elite DC Spags, elite QB Mahomes….looking to be the first ever to Three Peat. Let’s not overlook the overwhelming cloud of Goodell whole League running offices full forces at work willing to go any lengths in favor of the Chiefs. This is too glaring to even fall under just a conspiracy theory of possibility. In my mind it’s pure fact. NFL did it for Brady….referred to as the Brady rules. But really was cupcake interferences from league compared to where they climbed for Mahomes. Officials working for the Chiefs to succeed. They had to…only way to deny us that earned Championship. Had to call Bradberry …Chiefs kicking the field goal for a 3 point lead so near the end of the SB? That wasn’t going to be enough…we knew it…they knew it…everybody knew it. Refs had to interfere COMPLETELY DELIVERING CHIEFS win. State of the art stadium in Zona …zillions of dollar business NFL….biggest game on the planet….thats the only time in all my years watching football ever seeing those field conditions(outside of all those incredible natural elements football gets exposed to). Zona master field manager The Sod Father quits over what the league offices did to his field. Delibrate…without question! NFL came close to losing me that day. As hard core a fan as they have….but I’m out the moment it becomes the WWE. One more clear exposed example…I’m done with the NFL.

Oh yeah…how I have doubts so very specifically surrounding our 2025 Eagles.

Doubt number one: Saquan repeating that performance. Don’t see it happening.

Doubt number two: Our O has every reasoning to do nothing but dominate being elite…should only improve being better than last season. But….yep you knew it was coming….this is a megaBUT….our O coaching. Had what should have been such an enticing OC job luring in absolutely the top available option to replace Moore. Heck even kept Moore instead of him jumping ship away towards the worst promotion possible. SB champs, All time RB, Oline….returning all but one starter. We promote Patullo instead. Doubts doubts even my doubts have doubts about this potentially season wrecking decision. Whole time our guys have faced overcoming Siri and his O. Been right up there with biggest holdup and weakness. This season we are relying totally on Siri’s O. Not even Steichen to bail him out. Siri’s OC is his yes man …right hand man the entire time here.

All evidence Siri and Patullo have produced with the Eagles proven unqualified(nicest term applies). Those two have added nothing, shown zero signs can coach improvements into players, terrible film study conclusions, not just each week scripted gameplanning exposed how lacking their understanding has been…it’s the self scouting and applied adjustments….heck just giving a playcall answers to our guys for exactly the situation the whole stadium understands the D is bringing. Of every single coach across our organization…who has earned the big promotion less than the Passing Game Coordinator? His largest asset is just following Siri as biggest lap dog.

Exactly correct. So from you finally somehow reaching this understanding…..all the really matters is that you qualify for the postseason. As long as you don’t screw up so many times you jeopardize qualifying for the postseason….then all that’s important is just how far along your team progresses that year towards peaking as near the potential ceiling as possible.

You're the FOOL who cannot comprehend ONE WEEK AT A TIME like EVERY team in EVERY sport in EVERY league while you write haphazard monologues and 65 straight posts about pie in the sky left field theories about the "big picture" which no one but you can begin to understand because the make no sense.

Which Siri pretty much missing all of this. He hadn’t mastered developing a pro scheme. He doesn’t possess the football wisdoms. He’s no O genius. He really hasn’t shown much of any signs he can coach(teach) players much of anything.

A coach without a well conceived scheme that couldn’t get across to others how to execute it and why(at this point just flat out don’t think there was much of a why involved)

Same fans so adamant about Wentz over Hurts. Then adamant Hurts isn’t even starting level worthy. Convinced his style of play can never win the Championship. They lash out at our leader faulting him for everything. He can’t read a D. Can’t throw over the middle. Just relies on hero ball. Pathetically weak arm. Only relying on carried by others. Can’t take snaps under C. Can’t be given keys to run the O. Not worthy of power to audible. Can’t adjust with effective answers responding to what the D is bringing.

Every single one of these attempts directed towards our leader he’s proven inaccurate. He wasn’t any finished product straight out of college by any means. Not trying to say otherwise at all. All he needed was to be provided with just any way he could accomplish any of these failed attempts to tear him down. Of course no QB will dominate over the middle passing with our roster. That’s been a failure of the GM to complete things finding that easiest of positions to be filled of Third WR. More than 50 WR have come through failing…not just with us….none went on to perform elsewhere either. OZ about the best Hurts was ever given before last seasons trade. OZ….doesnt drop passes…but biggest strength being as a blocker. Blocking specializing WR….something Hurts and Eagles fans are well aware of. OZ wasn’t the first. Our our supplied to Hurts regularly featured a blocking WR AND a blocking TE. Not Goedert….Stoll. On the field we’re putting blocking TE or blocking Slot WR(or Quez)….yet it’s a flaw surrounding Hurts QB performance? Of course ended with a question mark. Just that obvious of reaching ….to attack our leader. Moore comes in and right away in one season moves Smitty or AJ to the Slot a few times and POOF WOW…Hurts completes passes over the middle. So basic obvious reasoning behind the results. Understanding this being the situation even surrounding the most evident least ideal circumstance thwarting Hurts in any areas…just highlights how any situations not being spelled out near as glaringly will only be placed on Hurts as flaws and shortcomings. On him no matter how inadequate others and surroundings he’s faced or placed in. He just plays hero ball and throws too many interceptions….under O control of Siri who places the highest value surrounding big plays and their corresponding win/loss effects. Pathetic O scheme…every D opponent knows exactly what play we are running based on personnel and alignment. Long developing routes….even with the whole stadium expecting blitz. But "no way Ham” can resulting interceptions be expected in those circumstances. Top O mind coaches actually provide answers to counter expected situations. Lord forgive me to dare to dream of our O actually being provided a playcall that creates scheming a player open. How dare I? I dare because that’s what quality O coaches do. Actually should be considered near the top of qualifications for the job. But no…we’ll put out blocking TE or Slot WR in a formation giving away to our opponent exactly what play we are running….only getting that playcall in at the last second …so hurry to the line needing to get the snap off. But QB can’t throw over the middle fantastic to those blocking ‘skill players.’ He can’t read D well hurried snapping against the playclock. How dare I have any expectations for the O mind coaches to provide anything. The QB is the guy hired expectations of our top football wisdoms….how to best execute the O mind coach O being the master of it instead of the guys who O it is and job he’s hired for. Our QB throws too many interceptions….only his flaw…nothing to do with reading a D,power to audible, the best defensive coaches and pro players being fully aware of what play is being run. Nah…just poor QB performance. What player shouldn’t be ideal being placed in unfavorable positions? Hurts can’t beat the blitz…whether blamed for reading and seeing it coming…or possessing the proper corresponding countering play to defeat it. Whole stadium knows blitz is coming before even got in the huddle. No way could I dare blame the guy who’s O we are running and is supplying the answers and playcall. Siri flat out just didn’t have the X and O answers. He wasn’t teaching his QB to change the play to ‘this’ in case a unfavorable D is being faced. I mean that’s just basic normal expectations. It was far worse than that though. These were the answers our O Mind in Siri was providing. There was no secret about an unexpected D playcall. Siri was calling that play….expecting that D.

Hurts and our whole O job under Siri was just find a way to overcome and make a play. The O scheme WAS hero ball. Escape the bad situation to buy time to make a big play…with throw or legs. Crazy part….is they were doing it! Hurts was leading the entire NFL in big play making.

There is no W for first 1/4 scoring, what concerns me is when the 4th 1/4 clock hits 0:00 and EVERYONE on here has tried to explain to you what you cannot grasp as to what is occurring because you can't get the blinders unglued from your head

Shannahan over and over has taken poor QBs to achieve and reach NFC Championship levels consistently. Good lord thank goodness Lynch always failed him so much in so many attempts to provide a QB. Yet ….we should just have no desires that our team even strives towards providing the best O towards our success?

The local media likes the selection of Patullo. From a standpoint of not reaching just to get someone flashy from the outside. Very well respected within the organization.

The new hires on offense seem to have good reviews as well.

You never know until we see anything... but definitely different vibe than Brian Johnson. The potential comp pick being the motivation on top being the QB's family friend.

At this point now the vibe seems strong within the organization regarding both cosch and QB. Coach being in charge and the QB not needing the babysitter as his coach anymore...so the feeling is they can simply get the best assistants without anything else mastering as far as agenda.
