RG and maybe LB are the weak links for me. Steen played,he should be better when he gets the job in his lap. Usually when responsibility hits you tend to play harder than when you go in as a BU because now you know it's "on you" and I need to see the new scheme and how these LB's are used

I like the LBs much better this year.

Not hard to argue against. We have a quality shot to win the division. Cowboys came backwards some from last season. But both teams have projected win totals in Vegas at 10.5. According to the true professionals it’s pretty much a toss up.

Vegas is about betting odds..  Dallas always gets the benefit of the doubt with the betting public.

NFC championship loss isn’t a choke. Fielding such a quality team like Dallas has many years…like last year….then not even winning a playoff game…that’s choking.

Dude...they beat up on bad teams... look at their results...they aren't " quality " like you make then out to be.

He want that good last year in my view. He was slightly better than Opeta…whom barely ever was even rostered.

If Opeta played 689 snaps you don't think he would give up a sack or commit a penalty?

Sua Opeta.... 

527 snaps....  2 sacks, 2 penalties, 19 pressures allowed.

SO under AR we won the NFC ONE time. How long do you keep stalling/making excuses for no Lombardi until you make a move? You win or you get booted doesn't matter who it is

I don’t want to place a cap on Cam’s ceiling…but he has a really really long ways to go to showcase he has Pro Bowl potential risk to me. Just don’t be a huge weakness at C right now is where I’m at.

Or.... without actually having a bias.... " I called it Kelce retirement being huge negative factor"..... understanding Jurgens was a pro bowl alternate his first year playing in the league....With ZERO sacks allowed or penalties... playing a different position....so the idea he is better....

1.  In his 2nd year

2.  At his natural position 

That's the natural progression using common sense logic.

That’s why you need to make good decisions. You aren’t always going to get an opportunity for a CGJ and bradberry type players to fall into your lap to fill huge immediate needs. That’s why I always discuss the Master Plan to begin each offseason from. You always just focus on one player. I think about what it’s going to take to complete the Championship level roster.

That's why you always miss the reality that you can't always get every player....simply because he is in the " master plan"

It's not Playstation

How many Superbowl appearances before Spags as his DC?

They had a much better team last season put together than we have for this season or last.

What were their " quality wins"?

Ham said we should never have lost AR,but AR could not deliver a SB here

Someone needs to fill Cox's cleats

He was ranked behind Seumalo if that tells you anything 

Zero sacks allowed or penalties...playing G...a much more physical position where you match up one on one.   Now he moves to C... where he can double team instead of having to match up physically. 

 Size wise, he is better suited for C.... 

Experience wise....having 689 snaps under his belt should make a huge difference.

Yes ..bigger concern for me.   Very underrated aspect of playing DL, especially in the middle.... the amount of snaps you play.  Similar to pitcher in baseball, the ability to play more gives rest to your teammates and makes them more effective. 

Davis, Carter and Milton need to step up.  They should with more experience.  Same with the Samoan guy and Ojomo.... hopefully the rookie from Baylor is a player.   

Still, Cox is going to be missed.

Last 8 years..  3 playoff wins.  At the end he was awful... he had to go and change scenery...  then Spags failed as a HC and Mahomes came along.  Also the AFC west has sucked recently similar to his time in the NFC East. 

He had to go.  Better for everyone.  Especially since we won a SB first.

Perhaps a different field brings us the 2nd one.

The mentor 

The experience 

The coach 

Wow .... sounds like Jurgens has a huge advantage having had this all in place for him....as he enters year 3. 

Awesome...expectations should be high.   Then we can lock him up fairly cheap long term being that C isn't a high paid position

Man...you really gotta give the Eagles credit for how their " Master Plan " was executed at C.

I can't really use the field excuse. We had a 10 point lead at the 1/2. Siri got outcoached

What were the specifics that AR out coached Siri?  He sent a guy in motion and then reverse?  Questionable penalty at the end?
