Most of the beat reporters going dark on Twitter/X having landed in Brazil. Apparently using a VPN works out there, but I wouldn’t want to be the one to find out how serious the Brazilian government is taking it and end up being Brittney Griner’d. 

Didn't the Brazilian Supreme Court lift the restriction on Twitter/X? I would certainly hope the Brazilian government is better than Putin.

Dude you fell for a fake headline. Just take the L and move on. You're (amazingly) coming off looking even dumber than usual by doubling down. 

I guess you aren't up to date on the latest development where the Director of Team Relations (marketing) for the Eagles commented on a tweet, then had to delete it when people realized who he was, saying the guy covering up the "fake" ads is committing a crime for vandalizing and covering up ads.  Pretty much confirming that despite the backtrack by the Eagles those ads are actually from the team.

Is the flight really that long??

I think it's around 9 hours nonstop.

White is out and not traveling

Great! Just look to have competent LBs and he misses the first game.

I think they’re good but people are picking them to go to the Super Bowl and I think that is going way overboard by their playoff showing. 

I think they're a playoff team but not a SB team yet

Lurie shouldn't be using the Eagles to push his politics on the team and the fanbase 

I'd prefer all politics stay out of football

Lol

Once dean gets injured we're gonna look light at LB again. I wonder if they will be giving Zach Cunningham a call.

Were we ever not light?

Burks is this year’s Cunningham! 

Smart

It's amusing how mad people got at this. Whoever did this was brilliant.

Lolololol

I get a lot of things wrong, but I nailed this Devin White signing. Dude just isn’t any good. He made zero sense as a Fangio guy. 

Interesting choice of QBs to have as the faces here. James Harris, Doug Williams, Warren Moon, Donovan McNabb and Mike Vick all 100% belong. But missing in that timeline is Randall Cunningham. Randall changed the face of the game. Randall brought in new fans and created fans for life. He's the reason I and many others are Eagles fans to this day. Not having Randall but having Dak, Russ, Cam and even Jalen is a head scratcher. Shoot, I'd say Daunte Culpepper should be included before those 4 guys. Anyway, I'm sure this will be interesting and it's important to a lot of people. I can honestly tell you I never looked at a QB's skin color. I always liked excitement and big plays. Randall and John Elway were the two QBs I loved as a kid. The ability to scramble and make plays just captured me. Not only that, Randall was the epitome of cool in the 90s. He was a symbol.

There's a good chance Burks is starting soon

 

I thought Burks looked decent in preseason. Prefer him to white 

Think VanSumeran's development is a real problem for White, similar athleticism but a lot more upside (and can contribute on STs).

 

Dean, Baun, Burks, Trotter and VanSumeran - White won't be missed.

Geez. I thought White was the one lock as a starter. This scene is playing in my head now. We might never see White start here now.

That's vwey disappointing.  I expect the Packers to target Dean heavily.  Hopefully Fangio uses him in a lot of blitzed to negate that.

@mattwill 

I think we'll have some gelling issues in the early season, but should be humming later season. I'm thinking we'll get 1 fluky loss, but this year we beat the Cowboys twice. 14-3

 

Week 1 - Team tries to make up for the end of last season, beating GB 31-24.

White not having any LB instincts or spatial awareness was the real problem for White. He’s a heat seeking missile whose sensor only works 15 percent of the time. 

White can't cover at all. He might've worked in a Jim Schwartz defense, but not in this one.
