February 23, 20242 yr All season coaches couldn’t find answers for the same basic problems. That’s why it really surprised me they retained Siri. Don’t think I ever remember a coach lose a team to such a far degree either. They back Siri and say he never lost the team. I call complete BS on that. That was the clearest case of a team being lost I think I’ve ever witnessed in all my years obsessing over football.
February 23, 20242 yr 2023 Eagles were never the number one best team like the power rankings stated. But we’re way too talented a team to even consider they were just outmatched playing their best all down the stretch. Trying to even think of a team that underperformed anywhere near to the levels of our second half of the season 2023 squad. Crappy teams? Yes. Disappointing teams? Plenty. Our team it felt like it took everything they had just to pull out one lone victory over the pathetic Giants. Then came back to their field and got curbstomped.
February 23, 20242 yr Our players had zero motivation to come play ball the last week of the season. Yet Siri trotted out our starters in a fairly meaningless game. Several players got injured on THE WORST field in all of sports. You can’t play your starters …AND come out looking so clearly pathetic and not ready to play. Hurts got injured and AJ got knocked out. A couple of defenders took hard knocks also.

Hurts got injured and AJ got knocked out. A couple of defenders took hard knocks also. That decision week 18 is clear evidence of why Siri isn’t even qualified to be the CEO type coach. Started his career as HC here terrible. O was mismanaged and not nearly being utilized to personnel strengths. His D philosophy is just don’t give up the big plays. Basically tying any DC hands of being aggressive behind his back. Which the whole league is very well aware of. Steichen saved him on O. But then he left and went through the whole season without coming up with fairly basic common answers and solutions. At least gotta adjust. Come up with a solution. Then maybe Ds will adjust to that. But gotta do much better than what we witnessed.
February 23, 20242 yr Siri’s O just seems so very basic to begin with. Now maybe it’s because I learned so much watching AR run his West Coast O all those years. It actually looked like the receivers don’t ever break off their routes to ‘Hot Routes’ when the blitz read is on. We had so so so many times, with empty backfields even, when blitz should have been expected….where the receivers are all going on long developing routes still. Pretty crazy to witness. It worked earlier in the season…and some in the past. It only worked because the plan was Hurts will escape pressure and buy time. Then the long developing routes will punish the blitz.
February 23, 20242 yr There was like a three game stretch where the commentators straight were predicting what would occur with our O. Hurts would escape pressure, then make the big play. Siri so obsessed with the big plays. Yes they are huge. Are a big deal. But it has been defined what he demands out if his D. He just wouldn’t adapt on O either. Hurts was the best big playmaker in the league in 2022. So I understand to certain degrees. But then teams adapted. They just dropped back in cloud coverages. That was the game plan to haunt our O. Blitz a guy or two. But then drop the coverage back over the top….expecting the big play.
February 23, 20242 yr How could our coaches watch that film all freaking week and still continue doing what they did?
February 23, 20242 yr I never saw our 2023 squad as any real contenders ever anyway. But like so very usual around here I frequently am alone in my viewpoints on so many things. But can only imagine how much harsher things hit all you guys. Seemed like prevailing views here were that we were on the level with the Niners. I saw the squad achieving pretty much the exact record they did.

I think they have been told things that may be based on opinion or views but I don’t think they are just making it up. So you think one of the players slept with another player's wife? It's either true or not. Doubt anyone would pass that on if it was false.
February 24, 20242 yr 2 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: That two or more of our players slept with the same girl wouldn’t be a hard situation to come across on any pro sports team. It was hinted maybe wife…or possibly girlfriend. I’d find it extremely likely that almost every season some young player falls for some hot ho. Then finds out she’s a money grubbing ho. Too many men get their feelings all involved over the wrong women. My educated guess leads me towards the girl wasn’t even probably on a real exclusive girlfriend level. But our guy liked her. Teammate hit it also. Is it your teammates fault for hooking up with some groupie type hottie ho? Or is it the players fault that fell for a girl not worthy of being trusted or date-able? Or it's not true
February 24, 20242 yr AJ Brown was on the radio today for 20 minutes or so. Google his interview on 94 WIP. With Ike Reese. You can see where he gets annoyed with the media.

Rumours aren’t always true. Sometimes things get said and before you know it everyone believes it. Do I think someone slept with one of the players wives? Who knows. Maybe yeah. They are athletes / jocks so all sorts can go on.

As I said, I doubt a player or someone within the organization would make it up and leak it.
February 24, 20242 yr I think this is what Joe was talking about, Brown on 94WIP. The media needs to back the F off. https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/2024/2/24/24073109/eagles-aj-brown-answers-questions-addresses-rumors-reports-jalen-hurts-philly-to-misunderstood-nfl

February 24, 20242 yr Salary cap up to 255m what’s that like a 30m increase from last year lol yea Eagles will have plenty of cap space this offseason to sign whoever they want

February 24, 20242 yr Seriously? Siri needs a babysitter? LOL TYLER YELK PREVIOUS TITLE: Eagles assistant to the head coach CURRENT TITLE: Eagles head coach quality control Based on recent reporting, I thought "head coach quality control” was part of Big Dom’s job? I wonder if Yelk is tasked with helping Sirianni with game management decisions. That’s certainly an area where the head coach needs to improve in 2024.

February 25, 20242 yr Author At any rate I want Washington and Davis. You D guys can rate my defensive selections because you know more on that then I do. I like TJ Tampa and Trotter of us both in round 2. Getting those kids and adding Luvu and Sneed un FA would make immediate impacts

I don't like the look of Dom needing to be on the field to temper Siri. If he wasn't "all growed up" he should not have been hired. But,here we are(pffffffft)
