He hasn't been good either.  Not entirely his fault, but a pattern has emerged, and that is he will turn the ball over more than once per game.  So far he has 4 INT and 5 fumbles (lost 3) this season.  Almost 2 turnovers per game.  Say what you will, but I now expect him to take points off the board with a turnover and/or give the opposing offense a short field every game.

Has lead the league in turnovers since our superbowl, so that includes the 10-1 stretch as well meaning it's not a short stretch, but over a season of turning the ball over at an unreasonable pace with an all star team around him. He's always had a fumbling problem (9 a year) but has always recovered them up until now.  I know everyone thinks because lane smitty and aj are going to come back this will go away, but they have been on the field for over 90% of it anyway. There's a fundamental flaw in his game atm. Hoping he figures it out. He truly only needs to distribute the ball in this offense and would be a top tier qb every year

They are average because they are bad. If you're expecting to get an A on your exam and you end up getting a C, that's bad.

You're not describing bad. You're describing disappointing.

Disappointing is bad.

Hey Lurie!

Jets make a move. Lurie and Howie sitting on their thumbs 

If they decide to give Fangio the axe after this year, I wouldn't be against Saleh as a potential DC.

That said I feel like they're enamored with Fangio so I'm not holding my breath on that one.

Fangio and Saleh run such different schemes too.

Saleh is going to kick it on the beach.

We'll trade them Siri and Huff for Reddick and a 2nd. 

How bad teams stay bad

They're basically catering to a 40 year old QB. It's why trading for him was a mistake I said it then. They were a building team that got impatient and tried to fast forward their timeline with that trade. Building doesn't work that way. They weren't ready yet and can't admit that to themselves.

What makes you think Rodgers got him fired?

For the record, I will be fine with hiring an offensive-minded HC and Saleh to run the defense this off-season. The only players that we've drafted that wouldn't really fit are Hunt/Smith and Smith might be a bust anyway.

Word is Rodgers and Saleh weren't on the same page.

We've been spoilt for the past few seasons tbh. 

At the moment we're average again and everyone needs to accept it.

Have we been spoiled?   The last 10-12 games the team has been dreadful to watch.  

Spoiled?  The team constantly tells how they are the standard by which other teams are measured, they tell us how great they are.  They tell us that the are the cream of the crop of the league.  And what have we seen since 2010?   Mediocrity for the most part with 2 outlier seasons... 2017 they caught lightning in a bottle, only to regress to the mean.  2022 they almost caught it again, then immediately have regressed to the mean.  

They seem to be an average, or slightly above average team that can get lucky, but aren't really much more than that.  They are a one or two games over 0.500 team, mostly because the league as a whole isn't very good, so they can feast on some bad teams.  In 2022, they really did feast on bad teams to get where they ended up, including the playoffs.  In retrospect, if Purdy AND Johnson don't get hurt, I do wonder how that game ends.  As the years go by, I have a harder and harder time convincing myself that the Eagles were actually the better team.   And yet, they were a hair's breadth from winning the Super Bowl despite all that... which really just shows the parity of the league.  The NFL got what it wanted and the Eagles are the quintessential example of that.   They are basically a mediocre team that can spike up and surprise us with a season when everything goes well, or injuries don't derail them.  But, they aren't head and shoulders above any team.   In 2017, they really were.  Their QB play elevated them above the rest of the league, first with Wentz, and then with Foles' hot streak.  But, that is what separates teams in the NFL.   Our QB play has been a bit erratic, and the record has followed.  

If we lose to the Browns you need to fire Sirianni
