Who cares if Dalton knew the "system”. The system, and Dalton, both suck arse. Glad he’s gone, forever.

The QB room should be: Tanner, Milton, the Rookie (I don’t even know his name).

Are we trading Tanner McKee and turning the page?

Bro do you need a hug? 😂

I think they tried, but nobody wanted him so here we are. Hard to be a qb factory when you can’t produce any qbs.

We need a mobile QB due to our Swiss cheese oline. We need someone that at least can threaten to run. McKee is a statue and unfortunately our oline has been pieced together with scotch tape (not even duct tape). Saquon finally coming back unfortunately won't help either except he will pick up the blitzer, BUT it still wont matter becauseof the previously mentioned Swiss cheese.

McKee couldn't even beat out Dalton and McKee is on year 3?

Who game plans for a guy who hasn’t been dressing to throw it over 40 times in his first game? When has Mannion at any point this season (to include preseason) has made this offense look good? I think the man is out his depths unfortunately, because there is no reason to throw the ball as many times as they did. The funny part is this OC never tried to establish the run game, but kept getting McKee killed with stupid play action plays that the Panthers weren’t buying. This experiment to completely revamp the offense has been a disaster and that was even when the starters were playing especially on the offensive line.

With no guaranteed money after this year (at least I don't think there is), it is likely a decent possibility we move on from Hurts after this season, especially if there is a change at HC. If all of that happens, then best path forward is to focus first on rebuilding the OL (you wouldn't want to invest a boatload of draft capital and play him behind this swiss cheese version we are trotting out there now). In that scenario, we would need a bridge QB for a couple of seasons ... perhaps we extend McKee for a couple of years on a relatively cheap contract, depending on how he looks the rest of this season, or maybe Milton sees some action and we can get him signed as that bridge QB and look to potentially draft our guy in 2028 when we have 2 x 1sts and 2 x 2nds in the bank.

I'm not making an excuse. But they literally couldn't run the ball. So gave up on it

They weren’t throwing it worth a darn either, and if they’re going to call plays for Lemon to get blown up behind the line of scrimmage then just hand the ball off to him. Same result and maybe less yards lost. Abandoning the run is a terrible decision when your quarterback hasn’t even been dressing. You ask most offensive linemen and they would rather run block than pass block, but here in Philly we don’t even try. Frankly this offense just looks like Nick Sirianni’s offense from year one, but with occasional motion.

I think you still have to play Tanner. I don’t think he was given a fair chance against the Panthers to begin with so we at least have to see what he can do with a week of practice and with some talent returning to the lineup.

Oh yeah I agree. Tanner gets the next 3 weeks. Practice, film, timing, huddle execution, calling out hot route, picking up blitzes, I have no problem giving him time to work on all of that.

But, I would not mind seeing Milton if Tanner fails.

Tanner is going to be given his shot. I don’t think they view him in any long term capacity, but he’s going to get a chance to hold things afloat.

So, when would you make the switch to Milton?

Or, are you saying Tanner is the QB for the rest of the season? I could see that scenario play out. Just give Tanner the keys to the Offense and see if they can win a few more games, and actually see what kind of QB he is. (FWIW, I think he stinks).

I hope they don’t win more than 4 or 5 games though. The Franchise needs a "reset”, IMO. And this season is the perfect time to start said reset.

I'd think it would work best if they moved on from Sirianni and Hurts at the same time. New H.C. can pick his QB. Isn't that how it usually goes? Unless the new H.C. is okay with keeping Hurts until his guy is ready.

I kind of expect McKee to have a pretty good showing Monday. I don't think he's a guy that is worth trading a 2nd round pick for, but I do think he's better than what we saw from him in his last two starts. I don't know if Barkley will be back yet. While Payton is the QB2 (as opposed to being the emergency/inactive QB3), I'd like to see us give him some reps like we gave Jalen in his rookie year. Payton can make plays with his feet and could add something to a depleted running game missing Barkley. McKee is a free agent and I'm sure we'll be flooded with HurtsDoom in the offseason so it would be smart to let Cole Payton get his feet wet.

Isn't that what I said? But Sirianni inherited Hurts soooo ...

I agree. give tanner some time. if he lights it up great keep him, if the offense continues to struggle lets see what Milton can do.

But I suspect that Sirianni was pretty flexible. Another 'better' HC prospect might not be. My personal feeling is that we'll find out in 2028.

If they’re going to go with Milton then I think that is when they’re walking away from the coach. Milton is still learning this system. They’re not going to him unless they’ve completely given up on the season.

Well if they haven't given up on the season by now they clearly need to have their head examined...

Even if they crawl and limp into the playoffs it will be 1st round exit, is that scenario worth losing out on a prospect like Jeremiah Smith > or other future corner stone for the franchise?

One playoff game is some extra money for the owner and the coaches. They might not realistically think they have a shot, but I’m sure they wouldn’t mind some extra money.

How much more $ do some of these people actually need, though?

Stupid premise. Laurie doesn't need any 'extra playoff money'. Nor does Howie. They are richer than God.

Players and Coaches get a few extra bucks, but, would the embarrassment of getting your butt kicked in a NFL playoff game on National TV 'offsett' and extra $18K or so they may get?
