Only went to Ohio once and that was like 15 years ago to see the hall of fame wasn’t great…. Hof was great but the rest meh….

Virginia is still by far the worst state to me though can’t stand the drivers lol 😂

I lived in Southern Ohio for awhile(new Philly). It was better than up north for sure. All rednecks in the southern part. Amish towns not far away. Akron used to be nice, but now bad after Akron U bought most of downtown and put dorms and crap in. Lots of drugs and violence. Lived in Akron, worked in Canton. yeah the HOF is about all they have there, otherwise boring. I'm a water baby and FL suited me really well. I miss having a hole in the water you pour money into(aka a boat) HAHA. no water near me here in no horse Dunn

Texas is a very close 2nd with the drivers people either going 100 mph or behind grandma doing 20 under the limit no in between lol 

My cousin lives in TX and alot of HS friends live there now. I have never been there just at Houston or Dallas airport on layovers to Phoenix. IDK who walked out into the desert and decided a big city there was a good idea but my friend Vincent Fournier aka Alice Cooper lives close in Paradise valley

I enjoy Tx overall but did take some getting used to the drivers coming from the tiny North east

I hear my hometown(Akron,OH) is now a sheethole and my FL peeps tell me you can't even move around there now with the influx of New Yorkers and Californians bailing out. So I guess being in a no horse town(because they sold the horse to pay for roadwork) isn't so bad. I moved from Akron to FL in 1994,then to NC in 2019. 38 years in Ohio,25 in FL. but was going to FL since 1960 when I was 4. In 1961(age 5) I flew from Ohio to FL alone. You can't do that now. Grannie paid extra for them to watch over me. At the time the closest airport to Ft. Myers was Sarasota/Bradenton. I flew there on a triple tail Constellation(dang I'm old)

There was no Akron/Canton airport. I took the Constellation from Cleveland to Sarasota. There was no airport in Ft. Myers then either. Lots of driving. RSW(Fort Myers) is the busiest airport during season beating out places like Atlanta JFK and LAX. Flights coming in literally on top of each other, they have to fit the departures in between those. I used to love watching it(being a small time pilot once) What ATC does boggles my mind. The symbol RSW stands for Regional Southwest. FTM was taken LOL

FMB was always a traffic mess, then they added Margaritaville. never bothered with adding 2 lanes on the bridge. Some tell me it's 6 hours in traffic just to get there now. All about the benjamins, screw the people LOL

I miss Fl because Fort Myers is FULL of Eagles fans. Was so much fun. Here there is nothing at all, not even a Panthers place. Sucks

No Eagles fans where I’m at all Dallas fans but always a fun time when I go out the friendly trash talk back and forth

I bet. Fort Myers(FL west coast) was kind of the 1/2 way between TB fans to the north and Miami fans on the east coast, so they took other teams. Even some Browns fans there, but HUGE Eagles nests. 4-5 BIG bars that are fan locations. Here in NC it's all about basketball. No Panthers fans here hardly although I always get a thumbs up here wearing my Eagles gear out. There are no real sports bars here which sucks alot. Abilene nice size town, a little smaller than Akron but alot nicer

My cousin was the director of personnel for the University of Texas(lives outside Dallas) I'm glad I don't have to deal with obnoxious Dullaz fans,they are horrible

"He’s like a motivator. He’s a player’s coach in the sense that he’ll come to talk to you. He’s obviously got a bunch of knowledge of the game, but I feel like where he really excels is just the ability to kind of get the guys going, get the people, as they say, [to] ‘run through a wall.’ He can get you to that moment with real-world examples of things and just kind of really get guys motivated to go out there day in and day out."

AJ Dillon on Nick Sirianni

Just never hear anything negative on Siri unless your Ham or the media if he was this terrible coach some player would have said something by now

Hear it from the knowledgeable Eagles fans teaching him how to coach year one.

Heard it from Steichen. Heard it from Johnson.

Heard it from Hurts

Lol...so local news... as expected ( from what everyone was thinking here) the guys on the OL have decided to continue to make millions of dollars playing football...lol.

The sky hasn't fallen yet. But still questions regarding QB.

Problem is that wasn’t the main issue. How well can they play? How many games can they hold up to?

Jurgens been overhyped in my view all along.

But then he took then The Brotherly Shove abuse.

Jurgens at his best is a good solid player. But nothing exceptional. His injury situation is sketchy. He might only be a backup going forward. Let’s hope not.

Dickerson contemplating retirement…after seeming to struggle so much recovering year round his entire career. Smells very possibly like he knows he isn’t what he was anymore. Negative speculation…but really got that vibe from how his season and everything unfolded.

Lane still on his game…but…no real thoughts about him suiting up for the entire season. Likely we attempt to save and spare him for the postseason.

I know several here disagree with prioritizing the postseason. But it’s the correct approach. Didn’t need Hurts doing anything extra getting beat up or injured. Had the two seed in hand. Results we care about couldn’t have been improved by anything more in the regular season. Two seed …rested….as healthy as possible for the postseason!

I tried to tell you early on, you just refused to listen. Maybe now you can respect me a little more? I was not employed by businesses for my health, nor theirs. Kelce is not "attempting". It's exactly what I TOLD YOU to expect isn't it??? But you need Kelce to explain it and echo what I already said. Got it. "You may see, but you don't comprehend. You may hear, but you don't listen. You may judge with no understanding of what it is you judge". I'm not arguing with you anymore Ham because it's an effort in futility. Just say "NC was right all along" and we can leave it at that. Now maybe too, you can understand why I am correct about your hero also. He can win back this team if he so chooses. That is not up to your or me, it is however a FACT. You can see it for what it is or not. That is beyond my control. Maybe read this post a few times. All I can hope for is that it sinks in.

You’re missing the forest for the trees …completely! AJ got paid by us…then immediately given a raise so his ego fed as top paid WR. You actually agree with belief in stat chasing instead of chasing championships. That’s the entire problem here!

He’s our captain wanting to be anything but an Eagles. We need Eagles! We need champions!

Send AJ to a bad team always behind and losing. He can chase his stats…then watch real football from his couch during the postseason!

JMO-AJ gets dealt as late as possible to maximize return. That would mean Boston would be our round 1 pick. I assume Howie will demand a round 1 pick for AJ. That doesn't solve the issue we have at QB which is quitting on his team. But with an added round 1 for AJ it does help in retooling for the future. I believe we re-sign McKee for a short term to see if he is the heir to the QB spot if Hurts chooses not to play again. Any QB we draft would be one that can grow like McKee has(option 1). Although McKees last outing wasn't so hot(which helps us out really). McKee shined, then we saw a bad game. But the potential is still there. Re building the line is paramount regardless of the QB situation. If AJ stays, which is entirely possible, then I suspect we still add WR's the room in the draft and FA. OT,G, edge and CB are still top priorities. If AJ goes,the added round 1 would be for Boston IMO. Big shoes to fill for sure, but I feel like we need to get things in place for another QB unless Hurts changes his ways. Another "I'm not going to run" year and for me that signals Hurts will not be here for the '27 season, so let's rebuild this year. Just observations from an old man. Howie is in a bit of a precarious position with Hurts and the new staff. If we deal AJ and draft a QB(option 2) and WR in round 1, we will have another Wentz mess on our hands, but maybe that's what we do. IDK. The SB window may still be open. That is up to Hurts, no one else, but I really feel he has reached his peak and he is not going to progress any further. Many scenarios going on here. I want to see what Mannion has to say ASAP. That being said, I believe we give Hurts and Mannion the chance to fix things, so no round 1 QB as doing that would eff up everything,but a nice late QB should be on the table

Round 3…maybe clause for All Pro gets a 2

Think it’s a player for player trade with AJ likely.
