14 hours ago14 hr Who realistically could end up being the Eagles backup QB that is undoubtedly better than McKee and/or Dalton? I’m curious since most of you think they both suck and there’s just a plethora of better options available.
14 hours ago14 hr So in McKee’s defense… He’s working with his 4th different OC in his 4th season as a pro QB. Not to mention that each OC coming in is designing the offense around what Hurts does best, who is a very different player than McKee. I’m not an expert like the rest of you…. But that has to be tough.

But that has to be tough.I trust McKee to pick up this offense, but the troubling thing is that his mechanics somehow got broken and that cant be explained by the changing offenses.

They both looked like completely unusable players IMO. So if a backup is supposed to be able to come in and keep you at least afloat until the starter comes back, I don’t think they meet the criteria. Minshew was Joe Montana compared to these two. I think of either Dalton or McKee gas to play 2-3 games they might as well not play the games.

Steele looked fun in his extended opportunity but hes not as talented. Will be a good guy to have on the PS.

BUT, gone are the days where McKee looked like a potential starter.

"Ooooooo he's playing so well, kubiak praised him, they're going to be a committee now!". My guys if the plan is really for him to be the 1b to Jeantys 1a he's not playing deep into the 3rd preseason game. Be real.

It's the only acceptable alternative to a Philly Cheesesteak, imo.Well, I tried the Philly Cheesesteak eggrolls from H-E-B today. Decent but something tells me if they were from Philly they would be much much better, like an original Philly Cheesesteak sandwich from a Philly shop is. Probably won't buy them again, too little beef and cheese. 2 out 5 stars.
13 hours ago13 hr 5 minutes ago, Sack that QB said:Cowboys are having a good offseason.I am not sure about this deal, the guy is a FA after this year unless they can sign him long term I don't like the move. PIT had passed on his 5th yr option back in March, kind of makes me wonder why. Was it $, performance, work ethic? I know he started the '25 season kind of rough but played well until an injury in week 10 or 11.

They both looked like what they are, backups… Those two as the 2/3 is better than at least 75% of what other teams have.

McKee well below expectation. Yet, you are right- they looked like backup QBs. I think our expectations of a backup QB have become a little unrealistic. An unplayable backup QB would look like Cole Payton looked, unfortunately.McKee looked like a #2 that most teams would have.Dalton looked like a #3.

13 hours ago13 hr Just now, NCiggles said:Josh Johnson, Fagnano and DeVito all looked better.Yeah... the expectation that we have THE best backup QB in the league at all times isnt really realistic. To have a guy like McKee and call him unplayable is overboard. Im sure no one is going to argue that there arent better backup QBs in the league compared to the level McKee is currently at. Still, McKee looks like a QB2. Not unplayable.
