I would love to see Baby Trott make the Team and have some kind of role for our Birds. 

Made a special teams tackle and he shed off a block to tackle the quarterback and force a punt. A few of the rookies looked really solid even Hunt.

Just watched the game.  Haven't read through all of these comments but WTF is up with the Eagles giving #36 to Milton?  Brian Westbrook is one of the all time Eagles greats.  In his prime he WAS the offense.  How they gonna just give it up to some rando...🤮

Westbrook had his moments but he was no Shady.

Not a great game for Picket , some CBs, and majority of the depth players. Majority on the depth chart did not stand out ... other then Ringo and Shipley, and i guess Trotter  who played well. I hope there will be improvements in the second game. Other wise it is Howie time again to improve backup players.

Playing next to Dean, young Trotter looked like the better player. Dean in now his third season should be looking like a starter and not getting shown up by a rookie though he did have a nice PBU.

Picket is... fine. At times the WRs didn't help him. But that a pretty meh performance out there. I don't fault the Eagles for grabbing him on the cheap. But I don't think the QB factory is going to refurbish this one. 

I suspect Howie got him expecting to maybe do a Sam Bradford with him. Last night didn't help that cause.

Given the strength of our linebacking corps (or lack thereof) it seems like Jr. has a good shot.

Can’t see Howie cutting baby Trott. Trott will run into his office like he did to AR back in the day. 😂

I may have watched like 5 plays. Then I put on the Food Network. 😄

Anything good to picket on the food network?

could care less. all i care about is what players can do on the field 

Totally missed the game. Did Becton have any false starts? Seems to be his specialty. Kind of already makes him an old time Eagle.

Pickett had a wining record...with the Steelers. Solid backup.

Fangio made his starters get their feet wet and START the game. Siri isn't able to tell him not to start them. But on offense... he is still meddling. The starters weren't allowed to play.

Neither was Shady 😅

Anyway, huge Westbrook fan, but I don't think his number should be retired at all.
