1 hour ago1 hr I used to get sooooo upset after losses, when you become a fan in '79, watch them lose the Super Bowl (albeit as a young kid) in '80 and then go through basically 20 years of losing football, let's just say you become jaded. Then they ditch the guy from France, Lurie comes in, brings in Banner and Reid and the change begins. Look, this is pathetic right now. But to say we've had it really good over the last 26 years (after the previous 20) would be an understatement.I never thought I would see ONE Super Bowl Victory, let alone two. Maybe this has made me a little (or a lot) less worried about the wins and losses. I still enjoy this team when they're good but really don't get upset any more when they're bad. At this point, the injuries have decimated their chances, the Head Coach has shown that he isn't capable of winning without a stacked roster, the OC looks waaaaaay out of his league, the Offensive Line Coach should be offering up "You know, you can super size that for an additional $.49" at a drive through of his choice! Changes are going to be made, it's time to blow it up and start over which is kind of fun unto itself. And a couple other positives.....I went to sleep at 9pm knowing this team wasn't worth staying up until midnight to watch and fortunately, until Embiid get gang green on his big toe from trimming his nails, the Sixers really do have a chance to win it all!!!

1 hour ago1 hr I would say, lose the next two, then it would be a good time to let Joe Milton get something on film for us, or other teams. That would be Dallas week. Would be a nice time to begin showcasing him.

Going into the season, I was really concerned about our QB room if Hurts went down. With the Greenard signing and Howies lack of effort to bring in a tangible backup QB, I think Lurie needs to reevaluate Roseman’s role in the organization. Every aspect of this organization for has been a complete and utter failure this year.
1 hour ago1 hr We also need the cowboys go get a few more wins to keep the Giants competitive in our week 18 game so they dont rest starters.

1 hour ago1 hr 5 hours ago, e-a-g-l-e-s eagles! said:Dudes lack of effort pops every gameMan is a total disgrace. He is just a body on the field. Other players see this in film study. I don't care if he is an all-pro next year the trade is a complete disaster. I would seriously consider deactivating him for every game the rest of the year. Problem is that is probably what he wants. I don't think you could trade this guy WITH a third round pick and find any takers.
1 hour ago1 hr Usually I don't visit @BigEd76's thread until months from now, but F it:After 2026Unrestricted: Jakorian Bennett, Tank Bigsby, Hollywood Brown, Grant Calcaterra, Tariq Castro-Fields, Arnold Ebikete, Marcus Epps, Zach Ertz, Dallas Goedert, Fred Johnson, Jonathan Jones, Tanner McKee, Elijah Mitchell, Kenny Moore II, Johnny Mundt, Moro Ojomo, Dameon Pierce, Kelee Ringo, Tyler Steen, Tariq WoolenRestricted: Joe Milton IIII'm not sure any of these guys are coming back. Maybe Steen accepts a team friendly deal to compete for a spot. Maybe Woolen tests the market and finds it unfriendly, so he comes back for year 2 in a new system.

Have Barkley trying his best to be out there playing through multiple injuries and giving you all he can to help fix the problem. Have Greenard half assing out there and just collecting paychecks with a crap attitude.

I was really down on him and called him useless. I absolutely love the guy and his playing style, just not sure he can hold up vs. the run as a starter.I think he's one of the few that is still giving 100% so it stands out.
1 hour ago1 hr 2 minutes ago, eagle45 said:Nolan Smith is actually playing quite well. Maybe even very well.Might as well trade him now. They won't be resigning him. He's under control for the acquiring team for the rest of this year and next year. So, they might be able to squeeze a little more value out of him. I really like him... when he's healthy. The trouble is, he's been banged up so much. He's too physical a player at his size and position to be able to hold up for the long haul, IMO. Thanks for SB59 Nolan. Good luck to you.

37 minutes ago37 min It’s easy to pile on McKee, but his biggest issue is the offensive line and protection scheme aren’t good enough. He isn’t athletic enough to make plays when things break down around him unless he has a four-lane highway to run through. Put him in a shotgun spread with an OL that can pick up a blitz and he’s fine as a backup QB. I don’t think there are many backups capable of playing well in this environment.

Ojomo, Goedert, Woolen, Hollywood.

I think by the end of the 3rd quarter he walks into the locker room and retires. Guy does not want to play football. Doing everything he can to avoid contact. Howie's worst trade ever.
26 minutes ago26 min The whole philosophy of the offense just drives me insane. I’ve said it on here multiple times and we all know it, but the entire goal of it is to get to 3rd/4th and short and this is a terrible short yardage team. They don’t try to get 10+ yards on 1st and 2nd down and want every drive to be 15+ plays. Statistically, you’re going to have a negative play or penalty in there somewhere which torpedoes the whole drive. Way too many times they find themselves in 2nd and 12/13/14 because the play on 1st down gets stuffed for a loss. They just refuse to push the ball downfield until they have to like Hurts on that final drive against Tennessee.

I don’t think there are many backups capable of playing well in this environment.Agreed, but I am curious to know why we can't operate at an average level since our OC has gotten the entire offense together that last two weeks. Teams are obviously showing blitz and 8 games in we have nothing to counter it. My patience with Mannion is starting to run thin as well. Trying to give the guy the benefit of the doubt but its hard.
