Evan Neal?

I'm not reading Ai simulated guess work. Bring them in for a visit and see with your own eyes. Ai is BS many times, not really trustworthy yet,but if you want to believe Ai go ahead

Yes, it was a step that didn't work aka failure, but had to be tried for the reason you said

The experiment wasn’t a failure. They got live action answers to the questions they were asking themselves. The execution of the tasks the experiment included can be characterized as a partial failure and partial success. How was the execution of Kendall’s tasks in the experiment a failure?

It isn’t guesswork. It is a compilation of the available reports of his performance and actions over a span of time.

@GreenbleedinNC do you read igglesblitz.com? It is published by one of your fellow North Carolinians, Tommy Lawlor, who for years participated here in the EMB as goeagles99. I think you would enjoy it.

No, but I may start LOL

It was a failure against Simmons and it's not like he is the only good pass rusher we will face. Kendall gained some experience and learning, so that's a plus. We knew already we had weak BU's on the O line so it's not like it was a shock. A good point is we got Hurts to run,which is why we paid him in the first place LOL

That makes sense in lots of Offensive schemes, but does it make sense in the Outside Zone scheme that Mannion deploys?

Our whole O is a WIP, so we don't really know what to expect from anything. This whole O is all new to us couch coaches(guilty) also. There were good points like we got Hurts to run, Wicks looks like he will be a fine AJ replacement, getting Lemon going is another project. We are used to having a running game and that has not worked out very well up to now, but as I said a WIP. We have 2 ugly wins, but wins nonetheless. We aren't getting any style points

We are not. This isn’t a binary. The decision falls into the muddy grey middle. If the Safety was a half a step later than he was, that is a completed pass. The input to the decision is where the fault lies. Hurts did not see the Safety. In an ideal world he would have, but he fell short of ideal. That happens.

Smitty was blanketed, throw the ball away. Hurts still has his field vision issues.

Welp we have this cat named Barkley who needs holes to run through. he is NOT an east west RB. He is built for the line to push(physically, no "dancing") and open a hole to level 2 not take screens in the flat. So perhaps Bark is the wrong RB for this scheme,still with a physical O line he got 2000 yards so it's not Barkley that is the problem

I'm seeing Ertz signed to PS

The experiment was at the Forest level. You are looking at the Trees level.

What was the purpose of the experiment in your opinion?

Don't care what is he like RIGHT NOW? Did Ai work him out? Just because I suggest guys to bring in doesn't mean we sign them,that's what we have a staff for , so pick out other guys YOU want to try. it doesn't matter but we need BU line help anyhow. No matter what you say on here it's always wrong LOL

To see if they could EFFECTIVELY play the position, why else would they do it? Kendall got some real time experience,so there's that

Ertz is only 11 receptions behind Harold Carmichael for the Eagles all time recept leader

Already done deal.

BTW it was extra bad because we had McKee inactive so we could bring up PS guys

Image Ertz will play next week but will Mundt be the starter?

Mundt is obviously the better blocker could argue he was the best blocker at TE even with Geodart based off last season.

Will Ertz be TE3 with Jenkins as the #2 guy

But fun to see what happens at TE over the next couple weeks now

So TE, O line and it's only week 2. The D is going to have to save our bacon like they did last year until we get some guys back and I read that Fangio wasn't happy with the D players either

Of course the Titans picked on that weakness, that's what they are supposed to do

I’m surprised we opted to go with Kendall over Lampkin at C. Granted also didn’t expect us to move Jurgens

Too many missed tackles yesterday.

I imagine Ertz takes his old job back with Mundt blocking. I felt we did Ertz dirty. Glad he is back. He never wanted to leave here to start with

Asking a lot for a player to get up to speed in a week. Ertz is a veteran guy so not impossible just figured it would take some time

It may, possibly we do a rotation thing. I know he has followed this team since he left according to my "son in law" in AZ. Him and Julie did alot for Philly

Glad to see Ertz back FINALLY! Should have been done weeks ago.

I would have liked to have seen Bell tried at LG, he played LT all through college - he & Mailata could move people on that side. Jurgens acquitted himself failly well for his 1st time there, but we need to dominate the line and open some holes for the run game.
