13 hours ago13 hr Just now, NCiggles said:I would think they would want a first for him but I think that would be worth it given the other picks the team has in the draft.I’d easily give up a first for Max Crosby. He is worth that value. Especially because we’re likely picking at the very back end of the first round. Granted they got Nolan Smith in that area but the odds you’re gonna get a Maxx Crosby in his prime type player picking that late in the first is likely not in your favor. So I would do it. Plus he solves our past rush not just for this year but for the next couple of years. curious to see what the Raiders would ask for in that trade. I think it’s gonna be a first+ and a player. I don’t think it’s out of the question that if Nakobe Dean is playing again and he’s healthy that the Raiders might take a chance trading for him and getting him into their defense for half a season. potentially signing him long-term as part of that deal. If you’re going to have Campbell and baun as 2 linebackers going forward then Dean is just a depth guy for 3/4 or 1/2 a season unless someone gets hurt. frankly, I also like Trotter too. So if the eagles are gonna let him walk at the end of the year and raiders want him to get Crosby then I’d do it. Granted, I don’t know if the Raiders would want him.

Dude is getting hit in the backfield on damn near every rush. He has missed some blocking assignments in pass pro, that has to be a communication issue

13 hours ago13 hr And for further proof. This stat is unreal.He has 77 carries for 237 yards, good for 20th in the league. Abysmal. Let's adjust that to last years numbers by adding 3 yards for every carry. Saquon would be at 77 carries for 468 yards, good for 1st in the NFL 54 yards ahead of Jonathan Taylor.

I posted during the MNF game that the Eagles should walk the Broncos, but if the lines don't come to play, it could be a long Sunday.While DEN is mostly an 11 personnel team like the rest of the league, Peyton makes the defense do some homework with a bunch of 2RB looks and has a knack for scheming guys open. For context we run 11 (61%)-12 (28%)-13 (10%) with like 3 snaps of 21 personnel.

Without burrow and titans anre just terrible teams. Against the chargers they didn’t look nearly as good. Colts they were good upfront. But then again i don’t think the colts defense is all that great. Beat up on Miami annd titans. Meanwhile rams and broncos went for 27 and 28.

I am sure his yards after contact are down as well.

Are they the #1 unit - probably not. Are they above average, yeah I think so.
12 hours ago12 hr Author I mentioned on Sunday that Sirianni coaches the players not to celebrate a TD until they get to the letters in the endzone.You see under Ball Security "Letters and Logos".

Also don’t know how his contract works out doing itAbsolutely.As Eagle fans we focus on flaws but when we take a step back and compare that roster to the others in the league they are probably in the best situation of anyone and they will improve. I don't think they will be as good as last year unless they make a move like you suggested, but they don't have to be. They are good enough to win right now and the younger people will get better.If Ringo can be CB2 I'm looking for an edge like you suggested unless someone like Ward is available and doesn't cost a ton. I'd really look for depth at G or a TE as well. I don't think there are a lot of TE options, but if they could get someone on the F. Johnson level at guard who could step in that would be valuable IMO. I have no idea who that could be but they are way too thin there and Pryor sucks.Hendrickson would be fantastic, but I'd take another guy on the Z Smith level.
12 hours ago12 hr Sigh. I know he wasn't coming back here, but the best goalie prospect we've had in some time is now 100% gone. We really need to strike goalie gold one of these years.

We really need to strike goalie gold one of these years.Loved him as a prospect but I wouldn’t have brought him back. I think he needed to get away from here. add on I know he was found not guilty, but I do not want to touch any of those players with a 10 foot pole right now. I’m actually surprised a team signed him this soon. I thought it would take like a year out and then somebody would bring him in. Cause it’d be a far enough time away and some people would view it as well. He missed all that time because of the trial and then he missed another year because of it so now we’re allowing him to come back in. Fair or unfair I thought that’s how we would play out.

Tom’s first 4000 yard season wasn’t until year 6… for a guy who couldn’t run at all. He was purely a situational QB. Super clutch but wasn’t slinging it all over. Check downs and QBs sneaks. His first SB year he averaged 189 yards a game. Remember that huge 2007 year with Moss? That was the first time he ever threw for even 30 TDs.Brady had 3 completely different HoF careers.2000-2006: Greatest Game Manager in NFL history, 3800 yards per 17 games. 3 SB appearances, 3 rings2007-2015: putting the league on notice, from record Moss year to deflategate suspensions 3 SH appearances 1 ring2016-2022: impossible to fathom this era started at 39 years old, became a true gunslinger averaging 4800 yards per 17 games. 4 SB appearances, 3 ringsBrady also played through different eras of rules too with what WRs and CBs can do

You're frankly not going to do much better than him.

He has no where to go.My assumption is that Patullo has added no new wrinkles and has changed nothing at in the playoffs design or how it looks pre-snap with thr personel on the field everytime we line up to run a play, either run or pass, the defenses know exactly what we are about to run.
12 hours ago12 hr It's interesting that The New Orleans Saints control their own destiny. They play both the 0-4 Jets and the 0-4 Titans this season. It'll be interesting to see if they can pull off the perfect season. Arch Manning grew up in New Orleans so it could be a homecoming. Hard to see a team out flopping the Titans though. They seem to be a lock for the #1 pick.The Jets are still actively trying to win, they just have a brutal schedule.
