It’s been known he wasn’t asking for personnel control with the Falcons. Also known he was willing to step back control with the Pats.

he never asked for personla control here either the EGGALES FELT he would want that, he NEVER SAID IT

So in your eyes Hurts was the reasoning we couldn’t punch our way out of a wet paper back to end last season?

Sure

There you go. Now that’s the appropriate question. Is the goal to try and achieve 9 wins and just be competitive? Or are we trying to win Championships? If you aren’t contending …then signing Saquan just lowers our draft pick while eating up cap.

Even Hurts said "It's on me" and it is,yet you don't believe what you own guy tells you

We should have moved up to 5 in 2011 and gave up the round 6 pick where we got Kelce,because there was a STUD up there

For Patrick Peterson, Julio Jones or JJ Watt? very interesting thought.

So once again the deflection instead of understanding the point. We don't have 4 HC's

So the ‘norm’ is to interview coaches before you fire the current ones under contract?

Pollard wasn’t worth the money he would have commanded at his peak right then. Yet the Cowboys were trying to win the SB last season. So it was wise to not sign Pollard long term at top dollar…like they were considering.

Was absolutely stupid move.

Howie is giving Hurts the best weapons he can find for success over the next 3 years(when Hurts contact comes up). Signing Bark for 3 years provides continuity at the position. We extended Smith for the same reason. Howie needs an excuse to letm Hurts go if he needs to and he is providing the best weapons for him. if he fails,we know where the problem lies. Hurts neds to stop the excuses and get it done. There is zero reason for him to fail. if the defense gives up too much and we lose,so be it if Hurts balls out. Hurts was a Howie pick and he doesn't want to look bad,but he will find another QB if Hurts cannot produce the desired result in the next 3 years

Sadly it’s been leaked Bellicheat had his coaching staff already in place. Would have meant sticking with Patricia. That actually maybe was the real straw to break the camels back.

You reading bleacher report too much.

If you think it will improve your team sure. You have to check it out and thats what we did. It also lights a fire under Siris butt.Failure and collapse is no longer an option

Here is your issue.

1.  We made two great trades. Steals with Miami and Saints... you = it was all for a QB

2. We extend Smith ( obvious move)  you = let's trade AJ

3.  We signed Barkley to 3 year deal ( half the cap hit of Pollard)   you = We are all in let's mortgage the future 

Why can't obvious good moves, simply be obvious good moves?   The trade extended Smith and signing Barkley are all good moves... all more than just one year. 

Like every little thing has to be exaggerated into something extreme ALL THE TIME!!!

Who was our best defender last year then, according to you?

Reddick posted quality numbers in 2023, recording 11 sacks and 38 tackles (13 for loss), earning a second straight trip to the Pro Bowl. He wasn't quite the same game-changing force as he was in the prior year, though, and after enjoying quality production from Reddick at an incredibly affordable rate ($6.9 million cap number in 2023), the Eagles weren't too interested in watching that number jump to $21.8 million in 2024 (or carrying his $14.6 million dead cap number in 2025).

Siri didn't drop the ball in the SB. Siri didn't take a pee wee Safety in TB

Love how that guy wasn’t going to throw others under the bus. Yet seems like that’s really the big complaint about his demeanor last season during the slide.

I didn’t look at Pollard in that light the whole way. But the dumbest move would have been signing him at top market price long term. Total disaster if they actually went through with that. Which most reports were they considering.

That’s become very clear now the level it actually got to.
