They cannot run the ball effectively and it has made things more difficult for sure.His best game calling plays was the 2nd half of that OSU game. He took the pressure of Arch and gave it to Smothers and the other RB (can't think of his name at the moment)....it opened up things down field and Arch made a few Sunday like throws. Sark's poor playcalling goes back to last season. This year there's no excuse tho. You were able to get guys up front, a good group of RBs that he didn't have last year and Coleman in the portal

It definitely sucks, but hey...DAL just let a rookie UDFA backup QB torch them, I am sure DAL has it in them to do the same for an RB4 and some reserve OL guys.

These next 4 games will determine if Howie sells and punts on the season, or if we have a chance to win the division. Guessing we need to win at least 2 of the 3 division games. If we are 5-4 going into the bye (so 3-1 in the next 4), we aren't selling. 4-5, if both wins are division wins and no one is pulling away, we stand pat. 3-6 or worse and I think Howie sells.

I just don’t want to waste another year of prime Smith, JM, Carter, etc. They are a mess and it starts with the OL and edge hasn't been good. I'm fixing the line before drafting a young QB and giving it another shot with the core. If they don't turn it around the kid walks into a better situation in front of him.Howie's proven he can retool or rebuild fast. Whatever people want to call it. I don't think the Eagles will be out of contention if that's what they decide to do

Thursday at 08:15 PM2 days Curious how the team plays if Hurts ends up being out for the season. Who is going to pack in the season?

I wonder if they make a different decision if they knew about the clot before a long flight.
Thursday at 08:22 PM2 days Lets say, for the sake of argument, that Tanner plays well, the offensive flow looks better, they don't come out for the 3rd quarter looking flat and actually score points, and the Eagles go 3-1, do you keep Hurts out until Tanner faulters?

If you want to pick me out of the many here who questioned why he played with that go for it. You have the medical knowledge. Just doesn't seem like the right move. Saying it was just a bruise seems wrong.
Thursday at 08:23 PM2 days So do the Eagles give us Pierce without Barkley? I'd start Steele, no joke. His only issue in his past trials with KC, and it can be a big one, is fumbling. Why Reid dumped him. But maybe he cleaned that up. Pierce is washed. Would look at Blue as well. 1 yard a carry gets you fired. I don't even have to see the game. I do hate Eagles roster evaluation in many positions right now. And who plays and who doesn't. Very frustrating. They are late reactors to everything. Need a couple Ls before they realize stuff. When there's better options likely sitting right under their noses.

We proved a couple of pages ago that he read the Sirianni gave Moore control before the season started, he quoted the article, and then said he doesn't care that it said the opposite of what he was talking about.

If Tanner is crushing it for weeks, then you can be more deliberate with Jalen. But no chance Hurts loses his job over this.

Who is going to pack in the season?DAL pretty much mailed it in the 2 years they lost Romo (2015) and Dak (2020). They ended up drafting high and got Zeke and Micah Parsons for their trouble.

I wonder if they make a different decision if they knew about the clot before a long flight.So, this is a question now for my own best practices in a high school setting. Players get cleated all the time. Not just football with a doctor and ultrasound on the sideline. But in soccer as well.So, now am I supposed to send every player who gets cleated to the hospital for an ultrasound before clearing them? Then repeatedly for follow up ultradounds after games and practices? I have no way of knowing on the sideline that this wont happen. 100% of the time its , yeah its a bruise you're good. I have no worries unless there's signs of a DVT. Or a Morel- Lavallee. How am I to know a cleat bruise isnt going to do what Hurts' is doing? This guy screws everything up for everyone all the time.

This guy screws everything up for everyone all the time.I mean, I'd expect a SLIGHTLY higher standard of care in the NFL. If you had any thought it was a clot, you'd check it before he flies. The fact they did an ultrasound in London means they had some suspicion of a clot/issue. If they thought that, then why wait until after the flight?Your premise is undercut by the fact that they did do an ultrasound. It's odd they chose to do it AFTER he took a 7+ hour flight.
