Could of drafted him but we traded that pick

Going back to that time... Eagles are holding pick 32 in Round 1 having come off the Super Bowl victory and 2 years removed from selecting Wentz #2 overall.  Would that have been a move you would have praised or ripped?

I'm not so sure the Eagles with that staff would have implemented a Lamar Jackson style offense from day 1, either.

I probably should have known already, but I read that Saquon is 0-10 vs. the Cowboys 

Get the guy 3 first half TDs and make it a blowout so he can watch the 4th quarter from the bench.

And the Eagles haven't won in Dallas since 2017.   Sunday could be a big day for a lot of folks.

 

@Joe Ball  don't be a stranger this week!   It's Dallas week.  We've been saving all our best insults of you for this week.

And we know the Eagles have never won a SB in a year where they didn’t a) start the season 1-1 and b) win in Dallas.

Of course he is. He played safety.  That's why they liked him at edge rusher for this defense. 

And his regular season sack came from an edge rush position.  That's what he is. 

What he is is versatile. He can do a lot of things. What he needs is to be coached up to do them well. Right now he may be best as an edge rusher but I see box safety and joker in his tool box sooner rather than later.

Yep. He should eventually line up all over the place.

So the loss to the Falcons was strategic?

Never understood people who take it to these extremes.

Yeah I might get pissy on the Blog when stupid things happen.

But to destroy things and ruin your family?

Drink a beer. Smoke a jay.

Relax.

The EMB is the perfect outlet to let that type of emotion out.  This is a safe place for that.  Sure we get worked up at each other from time to time, but we all know what to expect when we log in.  There will be gross overreactions and hard line takes opposite of specific viewpoints.  Lots of talking past one another and not a lot of listening to reason.  That's fandom.  

 

But, to not be able to compartmentalize things and become a literal danger to your family, especially the young ones... . That guy needs to seek help.

There’s no doubt to me that so far Barkley has been our best and most important player. He’s won 3 offensive player of the week awards already so that says a lot. And yet you are right he likely won’t win it because it’s a QB award.

Once upon a time, the MVP award was really just about the Most Valuable Offensive Skill position player.  Now it is really just about the QB position.   But, it was never really about the best 'player' on a team.   There has only ever been TWO MVPs that played defense.  Imagine how truly remarkable those players were - Alan Page and Lawrence Taylor.

 

 

 

 

Nick let the cat out of the bag, Hurts has an ankle injury. I wonder if the NFL will come down on the Eagles for lying on the injury report.

Sirianni is a terrible liar. Holy crap

Pretty sure it's a copy/paste to get clicks. I've seen that scenario for years

So how long has Hurts been dealing with an ankle injury? It'd make sense why he's looked slower this season

Why hide it?

He was limping pretty bad last game when they pulled him out. Cameras didn’t even pick it up that it was his doppelgänger the last few plays

@EaglePhan1986 - You should have seen what erupted from my ass this morning.  For some reason, I was craving a disgusting pan pizza from Pizza Hut last night, and I indulged.  It also came with free cheese sticks.  Think what Mt Vesuvius did to Pompeii, which is an accurate description because I ordered the spicy marinara.  

Happy Friday everyone!  Hope you're all enjoying your lunch!
