No I read many posts

In doing so I read how you are basically blaming Wentz for the first three weeks, and when you say Wentz misses too many layups its just ridiculous considering all of the variables working against him

If I moved the basket side to side, gave you a watermelon instead of a basketball, and on every other attempt I hammered you from your blind side, I bet youd miss some layups too

The problem remains that he has some bad misses and has had too many INT's and fumbles this season.  I thought his worst pass was his miss on Sanders who was running  an arrow route out of the backfield.  If he places that in front of him, he likely scores.

They drafted a linebacker in the third round this year and I don't believe he has seen a snap yet. At this point, what can Gerry give you that someone like Taylor or even Bradley can't? 

My guess is Taylor didn’t have a good camp; I don’t remember his name being mentioned much and I haven’t noticed him on ST.

Tampa Bay had better receivers and the Eagles/Banner just ignored that position too often early in McNabb's career.  If they had gone after, for example, Keyshawn Johnson, in free agency they may have been playing for the Super Bowl. 

They may have had better WR but the Eagles could have and should have won that game.  Those Eagles teams much like this team didn't do much in adding weapons for the quarterback.  Donovan had to do so much on his own.  Jim Johnson's defenses also collapsed under the spotlight.  Some of BDawks worst games were those NFCCGs.

They drafted a linebacker in the 3rd round based around his athleticism alone.  He has to learn how to play linebacker.  It was a horrible draft pick.  Bradley saw a few snaps apparently on Sunday.  

In all seriousness Mike, I was told after the Washington game that I made too many excuses for Wentz when I said Reagor let up for the deep ball, Hightower was more at blame than Wentz for the INT and that Reagor should have sat down in the zone instead of clearing the LB, which looked like a horrible pass by Wentz.

You might not like what I have to say, but I call it like I see it. There is no agenda from me.

In all fun, Im going to take a shot in the dark here and say Your lady on a Sat night after a half a glass of Sangria and blowing on the back of her ear? At least that's a layup for me in my house 🙂

It is for me too...

Taylor is basically a slightly more polished Jordan Mailata when he entered the league, but learning to play a slightly more complicated position. I don't think he was ever supposed to have a "good" camp. 

 

He'd be an upgrade over JJAW

An open roster spot is an upgrade over both. 

We only won cause some guy named Mullens threw the worst pass In nfl  history

No, we actually lost the game.  You need to start saving for your Trevor jersey.

 Not interested in another older player. Let the young guys play, we need to see if any we have can play and get better BEFORE this offseason.

He’s a Falcon now

This team whether it’s Doug or Schwartz has a serious anti-meritocracy problem and they stick with their favorites for way too long. They did it with Hollins last season and it’s gonna be Gerry this season. Play the guys who deserve to play, not the ones you like. It’s a terrible message to send to the team. 
 

 

I think this is on par with walch saying hollins did well because he was lining up correctly.

Gerry lines up correctly he takes the drops where the defense design tell him to he blitzes through the correct gap, problem is once where Schwartz wants him to be he does next to nothing.

Part of it is gerry part of it is Schwartz lame predictable schemes. Every play offenses know exactly where gerry will be, opposing defenses have said as much. The offense knowing where the defense will be and what they are doing is an advantage for the offense and disadvantages the defense including gerry.

I'm pretty certain ray lewis and Brian urlacher could be back there and still getting shredded in the pass game because the offense knows exactly where they will be.

Having said that it was nice to see Schwartz switch it up and play some man against SF. 

Both INTs came while playing man.

My opinion immediately after the draft was he was a worse pick than Hurts.  Time will tell

I haven't watched the All 22....but I'm pretty certain Singleton was not playing man to man on his pick. Unless of course, the invisible man was his receiver to cover.

You dont have to explain yourself, I understand where you're coming from, all good.

Im a Wentz Washer anyway, so I just embrace it

Matt Ryan will mess that up for you.

I dislike both picks for completely different reasons.

They were in a quarters coverage.

That's fine to do with Mailata considering he was a project and a 7th rounder. You can afford to take your time with him. Taylor being a third rounder, I'd be disappointed if he was a 1-2 year project and not seeing any field time in a position group that is probably the weakest on the team. That was just a weird pick to me. The guy never played high school football and is as raw as they come. From what I heard, a lot of teams didn't even have them on their board so taking him in the third didn't make a lot of sense.

I’d say you missed the layup. 

The only layup I ever missed was against St. Joe's because I did too many bong hits before the game.  Lesson learned.

He was man up on a RB when that back stayed in to block singleton had the option of blitzing or dropping, he obviously dropped.

Fran went over it in his big plays breakdown.

Yeah just re-watched the play, only 2 WRs released, no TE's or RBs....credit the D-line for forcing a max protect, and that throw is just....gross
