JJAW finally caught something

 

Now if Wentz got it and passed it on to JJAW it would be newsworthy.

Week by week the injury excuse goes out the window. Sanders, Fulgham, Goedert, Reagor, and getting Alshon back should have been more than enough to beat NYG and they put up their lowest amount of points all season coming off a bye week. This is just not a good offense. Seumalo isn’t the savior that’s going to fix it. 

Speaking specifically about the offensive line I still think it's valid. They have had what, 8 different starting O-lines this year? Hopefully down the stretch things will be different. I agree that Seumalo won't suddenly fix all the problems there but it will help for sure.

Hurts is no threat to Wentz, he reflected the reality that Wentz has gotten injured repeatedly, and the pain of watching McCown last year.

Nor is #53 exactly a lock to start in the NFL. Of the next 14 picks, 2 are starting.

The guys picked after him:

#54 Epenesa DE,

#55 Dobbins, RB  55/310

#56 Davis, DT

#57 Jefferson WR 10/136

#58 Cleveland, OT

#59 Mims WR, 10/146

#60 Uche, LB

#61 Fulton CB

#62 Dillon RB 23/97

#63 Gay LB

#64 Chinn S

#65 Wilson, LB

#66 Gibson RB, 103/436

#67 Okwara DE

 

So 9 games in, we are judging picks 54-68?  Does that mean our draft picks are all failures too?  Just checking for consistency.

So what was their response?

They side-stepped it and it was typical lip-service to justify the pick. "We're a quarterback factory" and "We'll use him as our Taysom Hill".

Cause all those players given the situation they are in now and given the situation there in Philadelphia would have the same success or failure as in those places? Seems like cause he isn’t doing well there means he wouldn’t do well here which isn’t a very good argument.

Also we are in year one. I’d be willing to bet almost all those players are going to get more opportunities and chances to prove the value of that pick before we are going to see from Jalen hurts because the Eagles are tied to Carson really through 2021 and likely 2022. He would have to get hurt or play so poorly the Eagles with bench him. And frankly wentz has played really poorly and they still haven’t benched him

There’s also the Eagles could trade up from 53 to get somebody who could help right now and the future. So saying with everyone at 53 in around there wasn’t very good so far. You know they could’ve leapfrog Dallas and the Bears and gotten Jaylen Johnson who is a starting corner right now. Except they didn’t wanna do that because they wanted to Jalen hurts

i’m just going to also point out that Mims has looked ok over the last 3 games he’s gotten to play. He has 13 less yards as Jalen Reagor in less games played and arguably a worse offense.

Rumors saying that it was JJAW (not a joke), but I haven't seen anything official yet.

They don't even use him as Hill

That's Fed up and embarrassing 

NFLN says JJAW, Hightower and Burnett are on COVID List.

Ive been calling for Jim's head since 2018 but firing him now wont matter. Anyone you give the job to now cant change the scheme this late in the season. Takes a full offseason to do that. His contract is up after the season. We saw that when they fired Juan and gave the job to Todd back in the Andy days. I thought Todd should have stayed but they let him walk at the end of the season.  Im sure they already have names on a list they want to or already have contacted about the job. 

They cant change the scheme but they could change some small things like how they play coverage on certain situations maybe someone new can put some new blitzes in, etc.

Another scummy response to that kind of news

And what is the replacement plan...it is myopic to fire someone and not have a plan in place for his replacement..in fact it is just plain foolish!

What's the big deal?  The team sucks anyway.  Why hold onto Schwartz for 6-7 more games.

Or Doug needs to go? Or Doug needs to find someone that can coach Carson if he can't? I was thinking about this as I walked over lunch today. Why are all of our offensive players suddenly sucking at the same time?  And both on offense and defense why does it seem like our players regress?

Or yeah perhaps Doug needs to go I'm certainly not against that at this point. But I guess my point was more around, there have been a number of different coaches in this building since Reich and none of them have seemingly helped improve Wentz? I mean that's not a great look for Wentz is it?

Pretty sure its JJAW.  They reported that a little while ago.

Trust me I have zero love for Jim. But I think the FO and Lurie will give him the respect to finish out the season.

That's probably true.

It is not about respect, it is about a replacement plan. If the FO felt that Jim needed to go right away and had someone in mind to replace him long-term, it would have happened. That opens up 2 scenarios:

The Eagles FO wants to move on from Schwartz or they have no replacement plan. Neither is a sure thing.

Oh no JJAW is on COVID-19 reserve list... Well That's us done for. 

😁

Well at least we know JJAW can catch something. 

NFL app said JJAW has it and the others were in close contact with him
