@FranklinFldEBUpper would know.

Ours were $190 per, but we’re in that small section of the upper deck that is isolated from the rest of the crowd. I suspect the nosebleeds are less.

The alternate route already did.

Charlie Weis ought to have coached for the Eagles the way his name is routinely misspelled.

Charley White?

To be honest you could make the same argument about discounting the one thing he does do at a higher rate than any other QB in the history of the game.

People responding to you like 'they do it because it makes him look better'.  Really? No crap.

It's like Sirianni and Hurts both get zero credit for what happens to this team. Whole sections of the board believe we could achieve the same results if we had Blake Bortles, Blaine Gabbert or Al Bundy under center coached by Al Pacino's character in Any Given Sunday because the offensive roster is so great, despite having Big Red's last couple of seasons here with a similarly talented offensive roster and apparently a better QB coming out 12-28 like 15 years ago.

Sometimes the grass you're on is green enough and you should enjoy it a bit rather than nit picking about how if you just had a better this or that, because having what you perceive as all the best parts amounts to less than what you had.

Could have just quoted me lol

Hurts gets credit and the blame. Though if we're being honest he gets excuses when there's blame

Separating the stats isn't even about saying Hurts sucks. I say that to people using total stats for every QB

I haven't seen anyone say we'd get the same results with Blake Bortles, Blaine Gabbert, or Al Bundy. Strange that you selected those. I have seen people say this team would put up crazy records with Allen and Burrow. Which is pretty reasonable to assume

Brandon Boykins!

Chase Daniels!

Three great seasons with the Rams and only one with the Cards.

He isn't top five on their franchise list in terms of yards.  Murray is already ahead of him.  Palmer had a better 6-season run there.

But he’s a HOF QB that took the Cards to a Super Bowl.

If Hurts wins a couple rings then he would get in.  Similar to how Aikman got in.  Aikman's stats are quite a bit behind McNabb but those rings talk.

Aikman passed the eye test though. One of the most accurate passers of his era.

It’s an ok list, but it’s weird as hell a 3-year-old process is including NTs and FBs, not NBs.

Was just watching the 30 for 30 Magic documentary. Penny Hardaway was a joy to watch. His early career knee injury was unfortunate. He might have been a hall of famer.

If he wants to be really classless, the perfect move for Jerruh would to wait until all the HC jobs are filled and then fire McCarthy.

Except that the contract expires on January 14.

Not sure why.  I am beyond 100% confident that there will be a game.  I've planned my Sunday afternoon around it.

Hes highly non traditional.  Let’s call it that.  I’d rather be a traditional juggernaut plowing through a well traveled path than hoping the alternate route takes you to a sb.  But that’s the route we are taking.  

That 2017 SB sucked.

Same, very much getting the same feeling as I had when we were about to face the Giants in the opening playoff game 2 yrs ago.

Most QBs nowadays are "non-traditional”. 
 

Hurts just isn’t an amazing passer, but the dual threat QB is here to stay. Allen is also "non-traditional”.

Jalen Carter voted first team all-pro by nfl players

Saquon also first team.

 

Probably won’t reflect in AP all-pro list, but may be good news for the player-voted top 100 in the summer

Back in September I said Carter was top two DT in the league. I was mocked.😰😥

Not really.  You are unconventional in insisting a QB is not also a running position.  I grew up watching what Staubach, Tarkenton and Moon could do with their legs.  Heck, we just watched what is probably the swan song of Rodgers career.  He always made plays with his legs.  Mahommes does all the time.  McNabb?  Vick?  Peyton Manning was a non traditional QB in that he just about never ran.

Stoutland and Company have perfected the QB sneak with a QB that can squat 600.

Came pretty damn close.

The upset of the year is Sirianni and the Eagles not squeezing out another 3 hours of competitive advantage.

To a certain extent.  

People talk about running vs pocket, but I also think of it as on vs off script QBs.  And that’s where I struggle with Hurts.  The last generation of great QBs were on script guys…Manning, Brady, Brees (at his best).  And for on script guys, they are stepping into throws, throwing with anticipation…arm strength isn’t all that important.

The great off script QBs…Elway/Favre (2 generations ago), Rodgers (1 generation ago), Mahomes, Josh Allen….what do they all have in common?  Massive arms.  They may not see someone break open as fast as Manning or Brady would, not as cerebral…but they can make any throw off balance on a line with the laser hitting the target in the chest before a defender closes.

Hurts is an off script qb without the arm.
