I’ve been asking you for pages…haha..you can’t answer.

The answer is simple the numbers put up by the team in all the various categories stand for themselves … collectively. Football is a team sport, not an individual sport.

What would you calm it then? You wanted Hurts benched for Shew. Banged the table over had to keep Wentz. Now are perfectly fine with McKee instead of Hurts. Guess we are just such completely different people. I’m loving our greatness that’s resulted. Best ever franchise QB you’ve ranted suggesting to be replaced by any other backup QB. Well…this time you just stated you’d be fine. You’re totally clueless!!! Not even meant offensively…I mean at first about Wentz? Ok..I understand how you were so wrong…kind of. But you still missing it all is beyond me. It’s like you actually are striving for mediocrity instead of greatness. I’ll never understand you. Hurts driving our organization towards winning Championships. No idea what’s important to you then.

Who the F is Shew?

So how is tagging McKee with 2 years left on his contract advantageous for the Eagles? Your non answer isn't cutting it

I’m confused isn’t the tag only applicable to a player whose contract term has expired? A player with two years left on his contract can not (under NFL rules) be tagged.

Answered and answered…tag and trade. It’s a fairly familiar term and process for those of us understand anything going on. But…post after post stated we are trading McKee this season. Specific..in detail. No Mas thinks we should just hold on to him for two seasons cheap and get the comp pick after losing him. That’s when I responded with wouldn’t be what we’d do even then. But he’s not understanding how all the facets work…or not able to look ahead enough to see how that won’t work out. McKee isn’t going along with that. He’ll force his way out at most any cost before he sits around letting us deny his opportunity to succeed and prove he’s worth huge money. Doesn’t matter if it actually happens or not. Doesn’t matter if any fan here doesn’t believe in him. Only thing relevant is does McKee believe in himself?

Ham, McKee can’t be tagged until after the 2026 season.

Last year we finally got a coach…he created a scheme for Siri. You both faulting Hurts so blind with #Hurtshate you never saw how terriblly pathetic our O scheme was. It was the worst. I just asked for decent…an actual pro O. We got it finally…and what happened? You just admitted Hurts did what you stated he couldn’t all along. You bashed him for not producing with the Slot WR…while our Slot WR was known as a blocker…or worse. We had two TEs with one only a blocker. Can’t have a blocking WR or a blocking TE and fault the QB for those guys not producing. F4cking stupidity!!! You say…oh he can’t read D well. When he comes out of the huddle to the line with low playclocks so often. We barely give him Motion…32nd in the league at using it…not like barely…like 31 other teams …then a Grand Canyon gap between us and anybody else. Don’t supply crap for audibles. Last season he got them. Only give a few plays in the playbook to work with. Those plays almost correlated with personnel and formation. There wasn’t any disguise. Telegraphed pathetic coaching scheme. Embarrassing in fact. Playcalling was one step and play thinking. Nothing being setup. Terrible. Gameplan scripts sucked. Adapting and self scouting? Siri couldn’t do it…or just didn’t even understand it was ever needed.

Hey..we brought Playaction to the dominant rushing team. Moore is a revolutionary genius. If only some coach ever thought of this before. It’s a miracle!

Steichen had play action in the Eagles Offense both his years. RPO is the epitome of play action.

Why are we trying to force the Tanner McKee trade all of a sudden lol… we known we value the backup QB and we will likely need our backup QB to win us 1-2 games this year.

No point in trading him this season unless the offer is insane…Next year seems more logical time to trade him if we want to trade him

It is a basic rule of capitalism … buy low and sell high. McKee’s actual value to the Eagles is low because he spends all his time riding the pine. So he is in the buy low category. Other teams would not have him only on the sidelines. He would be their starter. So they are likely to make offers for McKee that fit the sell high category.

Of course that ignores the insurance policy factors.

Not every year but you can't allow new models to back up in the showroom either

We have that problem now, with four players and only three QB slots on the 53-man roster.

Because dynasties are built on Day One and Day Two draft picks. Right now McKee is only an insurance policy.

IDK last I heard Matt was on his way back to Cali from Colorado and never heard from him since. I hope he is ok

Just fine. Came home by way of Wyoming, Idaho, Oregon, and The Palouse region of Washington.

I mean.... who are your new models? You drafted McKee and McCord 2 years apart... one leaves as the other enters year 3.... development. That's the idea of a factory. Your produce yourself over time. We draft a QB ... he is the #3 for 2 years and develops into #2... draft the next guy to do the same.

No need to spend money at the position. That's the exact definition of the factory.

Bringing in DT-R caused some congestion.

But all these reports about DeJean playing outside in camp?

Let's try to stay off the creative fictional story and discuss actual real things about our team

What stories? I missed them. In Fangio’s ‘s scheme he has been either playing the nickel/rover/monster or one of the two interior Quarters.

right,we got Pickett in while we were working on McKee. T-R may be tradeable, McCord is the new model

Is T-R a vested veteran? If so, he doesn’t have to go through waivers and if but can choose to go to the Eagles practice squad.

On 8/12/2025 at 12:09 PM, cunninghamtheman said:

I’m saying a QB can force his way out under rookie contract(two years remaining even in fact) as a backup QB. No Mas says it can’t happen. So if I can post a picture of Pickett in any jersey but a Steelers jersey..he’d be very very wrong. So if No MAs believes he’s correct in any shape or form? He’ll have no problem accepting the bet.

Ham, Pickett didn’t force himself onto the Eagles roster. Howie chose to add him to the Eagles roster.

Understood. I prefer two in the bush over a bird in the hand.

Winning a Super Bowl requires more than a little luck. As the patriots found out when they entered the Super Bowl undefeated, bad luck trumps good preparation. Preparation is controllable, but luck is uncontrollable.

Patriots won 6 SBs... thats a lot of luck???????????

Do you think McKee's value drops or increases after this year?

You skip over too many things and make too many assumptions.

1. The salary cap.... you have backup QB on lock for multiple years ...at dirt cheap. That's huge value.... not just " insurance" it's a roster spot at very inexpensive cost! LONG TERM... a way to build a dynasty.... that's two birds in the bush. Rolling cap, there will be value to this way down the road.

2. You assume McKee would be seen as a starter NOW by other teams.... HUGE ASSumption.

3. You assume McKee's trade value is high now? Why wouldn't it be higher AFTER this season ? As teams go through failure with other QBs? And as McKee gets more experience in the league. More seasoning. At the very least, why would it be lower????

We won't pick until next April.... no need to trade until this season is over.

Agreed. Lots of good luck and lots of good preparation. With that said, how many Super Bowls did they miss in that span? How many did they lose? How many of the six did their backup QB deliver any value?

Rarely 4 that we want to keep. One is usually a JAG.
