BS what other players do we need?????? WHY did we we re-sign the top WR's???? Why did we spring for Barkley??? Why did Howie breaks YEARS and YEARS of tradition and not only take a DB FIRST,but also another with draft pick #2????? We PAID Hurts and got a valid starting QB as a BACK UP. Tell me what Howie has NOT done for the team to be contenders THIS year. If this isn't "all in" I'd love to know your definition

June 16, 20242 yr Author 17 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: Everything isn’t here. One injury to Smitty or AJ and we are seriously downgraded. We need another WR. I’d say one that can play outside. WR depth just isn’t there. Do we have a LB in that room ever? Short a S. In the trenches , on both sides of the ball,we downgraded from last season. Lesser team. But has reason for optimism to grow with in youth of talented players. DeJean can play S. We actually have TOO many DB's. Your big continual bish is always LB. We brought talent in. Now once again you are bishing about FREAKIN BACK UPS. Name one team that pays out TWO top contracts to TWO top WR's that has the backups you want.Goes out and gets a TOP running back. And let's not be stupid here, Ainais and Paris can play out if they NEED to be pressed to do it and we have a bevy of WR's that we have kept on the team for a few years now. If they weren't adequate BU's they wouldn't be here. So your entire argument that we are NOT all in is based on the fact we didn't get the LB in here YOU wanted. Thats it???? Your boy has had the top talent to work with for a few years now. Howie gave hurts whatever ELSE he didn't have last year and we started 10-1 with a lesser team than we have now. From all accounts, sure it will be hard to fill Kelce's cleats and we need to see the RG be solid. WHY can't that happen THIS year? I'm not against picking up another WR,but we have talent across the board. Howie got a new staff because I assume he wanted to go "all in" THIS year. There is a no more talented team in the NFL than our Eagles.We got CJG back, he's a downgrade? Mitchell and DeJean are downgrades? Really??? Barkley is a downgrade in the running game? Seriously????? I guess you are assuming Mitchell and DeJean ride pine all year??? I guess Hamityville is just outside OZ. This is the best team I can recall in recent memory. AJ looks stronger,Smith will be better at route running. Barkley should be a beast on the ground. Pickett is fully capable of running the team if Hurts goes down. McKee looks like a QB who can take the 2 after kennys contract expires(or we trade him). IDK what else you need on this team to make you happy. We are once again contenders out of the gate. You even said "10 wins" yet you don't feel this team will contend? I personally set my bar higher and want 12 wins and see no reason that cannot be accomplished. So tell me what other team you'd rather emulate that has a had a better off season than we have. Fire away

June 16, 20242 yr Author 17 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: We brought in players for Fangio to develop his D. That will carry over to the next regime. But now this year? Why not???
June 16, 20242 yr Author 17 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: We just lost our best D player in pass rusher Reddick, lost Hall of Famer Cox. Lost Hall of Famer Kelce. Not sure how you believe those losses won’t be massively felt. Cox would have run out of gas this year(and he knew it). Huff is no slouch. All teams lose players,we aren't alone. Kelce will be MISSED but that has ZERO bearing on how Jurgens will be and he sat behind Kelce to learn the ropes. Nuances need to be learned,but I see no "drop off". he should be solid at C. RG in flux as it was last year,so that's a wash. So 3 losses and how may gains? Barkley was a downgrade? CJG is a downgrade? 2 top draft picks on defense are downgrades? Getting a decent(if not stellar) slot WR is a downgrade from Quez? Pickett was a downgrade from Mariota? What else can Howie get that would make you happy?????
June 16, 20242 yr Author 17 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: Hurts has clearly been a star. Just not even sure how you could possibly argue against that. Not yet, because he CHOKES at bad times. Stars DON'T. So far he has been a RB that can throw. Now he needs to be a QB who can run. very simple and we brought i the O mind to do it. All the tools are there. This team will be good DESPITE Hurts and if I may say so,Pickett is actually well suited to this team because he is a PASSER. No on on here hates Hurts,we simply aren't arse kissers and can see what he needs work on. but now it's time THIS YEAR. He was overpaid LAST year and he owes us. Most of Hurts "stardom" fell on the O line with the tush push being 50% of our offense. Hurts needs to make more than his usual 1 read. We've been over this time and again. Howie got every tool Hurts (or any QB) could possibly need. Sounds like Howie wants a ring and that is "all in" for me. Players are changed annually, that liquidity never ends. Hurts "Stardom" as you put it,is because of the surrounding talent. Hurts still makes bonehead reads and JV mistakes that cost the team. I'm sure Mahomes would LOVE to QB this team,so would most other QB's. Hurts "stardom" came from the tush push success last year and the stellar surrounding talent(that was Howie). Sorry, but a real QB doesn't need 4 downs to go 10 yards. Time for both you and Hurts to wake up. Siri needs to step it up also and adjust on the fly instead of taking notes and waiting until 1/2 time. This is the best team overall I have seen in a long time(IF IF IF Hurts steps up his game

June 16, 20242 yr Author 17 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: But we can rebuild and still win the East SO in essence we are "all in" because we got more top talent in. And if we win the east that sounds like a solid team that did what needed done to make that happen? Thanks for backing me up. A team retooling would go .500 a team rebuilding would go sub .500. Yet you are assuming 10 wins and a division title and somehow that is a downgrade?. While there MAY be a trench issue or 2,this is the best team at the skill positions in the league. Name me a better one and why. I'll wait for this also. it's all on your boy now,the excuse list has run out
June 16, 20242 yr Rosie has assembled a 10 win team. Optimism lies in it not being filled with over the hill geezers. But some quality young talent to grow with.
June 16, 20242 yr Author 4 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: After week twelve he was the leading MVP candidate….but he blew…sure. Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, by making JV bonehead mistakes. he has another shot at the MVP award,but he has to play the position now.

Getting Bark,CJG back adding a decent slot threat. Can't see it being worse than last year
June 16, 20242 yr 21 minutes ago, GreenbleedinNC said: Snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, by making JV bonehead mistakes. he has another shot at the MVP award,but he has to play the position now. He did that with a totally inexperienced O coaching staff. The team wasn’t ready to start the season. Never put everything together. Hurts over came that to be in position we were in.

I believe Saquan is better than both. But how much more can you really expect to be upgrading from Pro Bowl level there? That’s the optimistic point of view. The pessimist would point out the massive amount of carries Saquan has toted on his body and his not small injury history.
June 16, 20242 yr Just how much can we pump up bringing Ceedy Duce back? I mean it was dumb to have let him go in the first place. Especially just so we could throw all that money at Bradberry instead. But when has Ceedy Duce been capable of suiting up for more than half a seasons games even? He’s a playmaking S….when he’s not injured. Can hunt the ball. But has terrible angle of pursuit judgement….isn’t strong tackler. Tough traits to have in your last line of defense as a S. The fact that he’s an upgrade should be very telling.
June 16, 20242 yr Added Zach Baun becoming a default starting LB. Hasn’t had a season with over 22 tackles to his credit even yet as a vet. He’s supposedly stronger in that area than the part of the job involving coverage.

Cox lead all DT in snaps long time All Star player for us. He’ll be missed. Actually believe we should maybe talk him out of retirement later in the season if we actually did develop into a contender. You actually just stated "no drop off from Kelce to Jurgens”? How could you even possibly type that with a sane mind? Yes Quez stunk. Yet you blame Hurts for that from the previous season. Or how about washed up Julio that could only run one route? Or blocking OZ? I guess there wasn’t a need for a capable player that actually was on the field. We’ll just wash over that because we have two strong guys up top at WR.
June 16, 20242 yr If it wasn’t one of those other WRs it was Stoll. Those 38 yards receiving last season really scared our opponents. Let them play free knowing we had a player out there that wasn’t a threat….EVERY SINGLE DOWN.
June 16, 20242 yr Jalen Hurts is number one in retail sales of any player. Everybody that isn’t me must agree with your statement that he done so bad they’ve run out to buy his gear. Hahaha great timing on the players association Releasing these figures. Number 1!!!!!!
