So if the argument is the green bay offense doesn't work

Might not want to make that argument green bay is up 14 on the bears and love is looking good.

Also gannon is coaching and calling a great defense

What do you guys think this offense would look like with McKee? Anyone wanna see that??

We all know how that would look. He was a traditional QB and guess what, they havent developed him a single f'ing iota because they. can't. coach.

They actually tanked McKees value to nothing, the total opposite of what they intended.

Are you delusional? He had one bad game here with backups? Or do you mean in the pre-season when they had some weird scheme going on with Andy Dalton while McKee was still learning the new offense?

Maybe you're the one with "derangement syndrome". Lol.

Super weird that you used "Hurts Derangement Syndrome"

I know where it came from but this isn't CVON lol

As soon as I saw it I was like "Well, this explains a lot."

Well,it did come down in the end to special teams

The offense did nothing for an entire half, Joe. Maybe if they did anything it wouldn't have come down to special teams. For christ sake they scored 17 points

Edit: 17! Woo!

I would also like the point out, the Eagles could’ve left like no time for the Jaguars if they had better clock management. If the Eagles would have ran the ball on first down on their last possession it forces the jags to use their last timeout with under 25 seconds. Could have then called a pass play on second down to get some yards to make it an easier kick. If our guys does not go out of bounds and call a timeout with just seconds remaining to kick a GW FG. If he does go out of bounds then run it on 3rd down and call a timeout with seconds remaining. If it’s incomplete just run up the middle with hurts and call a timeout with second remaining. The jags couldve never even touched the ball with better clock management.

And that there says it well. Two weeks ago we saw a 3rd string QB shred them because his coach put him in a position to win. Nick just cost them two games. They have no ability to adjust. No answers for anything. That's the biggest issue they have by far.

*Because the 3rd string QB actually got rid of the ball on time.

I feel like that...just kind of reinforces the point honestly.

I understand, but they still had the lead at the end

And the years when the offense was prolific Hurts was the main reason why, correct?

This has not been a prolific passing offense since 2022. The best they've reached since was middle of the pack in 2023 - when Hurts couldn't stop throwing interceptions. They're competing with the Dolphins, who have no talent, as the worst passing offense this season.

But yes, lets have people keep blaming the injuries and the backup OL. Surely they're the root cause for several years of passing mediocrity

They promoted Dalton over him. He is worth absolutely nothing or they'd have traded him

So this is what it feels like to be a Cowgirls fan. The team gives you hope and then the coaching staff rips your heart out.

There are flashes from Mannion that give you hope but he's still playing behind the sticks which is making the offense play behind the sticks. He needs to be expecting the adjustments from defensive coordinators and have a answer in the second half. So far, he's shown his lack of depth and experience both as a play caller and a coach in the league. He's way too stubborn on what he wants to do versus what the defense is giving. I see a few things slowly moving in the right direction but there are still glaring holes too. Will he get there? Who knows.

At some point someone just needs to just mute Siri's mic during games. This is not the first rash of him blowing games. I was an advocate of giving Moore the head coaching job so there is no love loss for me. Firing a head coach mid season is disastrous to morale. Let him ride the hot seat through the rest of the year.

We're not in a rebuilding year but we are in a seasoning year. We need these new guys to get seat time, practice reps and to be coached up. We're asking a lot of these new guys to step up mid season. Let's let them cook and see how things look as things start to gel on the back half of the season.

Part of being a fan is sticking by your team through thick and thin. It's difficult to watch but true fans bleed green. There is nowhere I'd rather be than watching my Eagles play every Sunday. I used to hate bandwagon fans but they help fill the stands during away games and are fervent when the team is doing well which is good for the team. So for any bandwagon fans who wish to step off the bus, thanks for hanging with us and we'll see you when the team turns around again.

rock Fly Eagles Fly!!!

McKee's one bad game with backups isn't acceptable. The 60 million dollar QB that has multiple bad games with backups can't be blamed though. Just not who he is.

Gonna love the hurts haters when he plays well it’s because of the team around him when he plays bad it doesn’t matter how the team around him is he should be perfect

You mean when he plays well when he has his all world oline, all pro WRs, all pro rb, elite TE… I understand we’re hurt, but we’re talking about 3 and outs like crazy, 3 points in the 2nd half in 3 games.. it’s not hating it’s fact. Our 50 mil qb ain’t worth half that salary.

So? Eagles had the lead with 8 seconds left. Our offense ain't good but that offense got the team the lead.

Right. But we didn't know that the 3% chance of Jags winning would happen. Or did we? EOD special teams just has to do okay there and not choke and give up a big play. I still can't believe that happened. Once every 30 years maybe. And not defending Sirianni one bit. He's a terrible game manager. Special teams literally could have tackled the guy 2 seconds later and let him run, even at the 1 yard line and we win.

........

So, can you explain what that, which obviously had "Howie scheming" written all over it as they kept 4 QBs, shows that the coaching specifically killed his value? Explain?

Howie better do something or he’s gonna end up in the closet again

Because he's gotten worse as a QB, not better. And he didn't even have much value to begin with.

Nobody is fooled by the baloney Howie excuse. They demoted him because he's not good enough.

They can't coach offense, Nick is so far over his head we need all his offensive assistants to do everything while he plays the role of cheerleader.

The good news is the offensive line wasn’t terrible today. It was just bad and they have a lot of home games coming up.

You think this is a fair time to judge Hurts when he has no running back or running game and a makeshift OL with Fred Johnson as your right guard for half of today and Jake Majors who basically had his 1st start today and off the PS. Bell in his 2nd start. And Lumpkin in his 1st start. Cam Jurgens LOL in 4 of these games. And a brand new OC. This is just not the right time to see what we have here? No number 1 receiver and missing starting TE for much of the season. With a junky TE in Mundt and an aged Ertz. Very lil to work with here as a whole on offense. This is a shidd show. And then Sirianni to butcher field position and leave points all over the field like its the 2024 Eagles. And the defense has 3 leaky faucets that gets absolutely torched and exploited every game with those obvious flaws. This team has so many damn issues it's almost funny.

I predicted, verbatim, before the season started, that the defensive narrative for Hurts would shift that it’s unfair to judge him based on the poor surrounding talent.

And maybe it is unfair. But the nfl is unfair. Judge him based on 2025 then. Or 2024. Or 2023.

They have to judge him based on something when deciding what to do with his contract.

How about judging the entire offense including the coaching staff none of it is good enough right now

McKee with backups:

21/40 for 241 with 1 TD and 1 INT

Sucks. Bum. Get rid of him. Clearly shows he's not capable of starting.

Hurts with backups:

12/27 for 93 yards with 2 TD.

Poor guy. Played his heart out. Team let him down. Did enough to win.

And no, I'm not calling for McKee. I just think it's funny.

Mmmmmm, I'm detecting low IQ. He got demoted because they were learning a brand new offense and backups get less reps (which hurt learning it), but you can believe whatever helps you sleep at night.

So when the offense is good, it’s someone else. When the offense is bad, it’s Hurts. Just wanted to confirm.

Your micropeen is showing ;)

I posted a stat that Trey has more passing TDs in a SB than Burrow, Jackson, and Dak combined.

Only one of which have taken a snap in a Super Bowl. Fun with stats but misleading.
