After all the turmoil this season I can’t help but to wonder if this was Doug’s choice or Peters choosing to stop looking like a bum out there. Doug's Choice or Peters' choice? It should have been Doug's choice but apparently he's incapable of making a good decision, if he were he would have never put him at LT to begin with, he should have been playing LG while schooling Mailata on the tricks of the trade at LT. I'll tell you, I think a new HC is just as important as a new GM, I'm thinking The Linc, as in Lincoln Riley.

He’s (JP) got a lot of organizational pull in that building. He basically pulled a power move on them and is going back to guard with that same pay. How are the Eagles letting people get away with this kind of stuff? The. Doug keeps defensive linemen in games even though they keep jumping offsides. There seems to be a major lack of overall accountability here.

This is a FO move. Howie listens to the fans and the media and hears what they are saying how bad JP is playing horrible and that Jordan is the better choice at LT. Just like the firing of Groh, the FO knew Doug would not make the right choice and made it for him. They are making him look even more stupid though keeping him in the dark and letting him say one thing then going the exact different route.

I’ve never known the Eagles to listen anything the fans want. Heck the majority of the fans want Peters gone and not at guard.

Its not that hes listening and making the choice for fans. He has made it very known he listens to WIP A LOT. All they talk about is how dumb the decision was to not play Jordan at LT and Peters needs to be moved to Guard because he just does not have it anymore and is struggling. Im sure Howie is hearing that over and over and knows its true and knew he had to step in cause Doug would never pull Peters from the spot he wants to play. Anyone who thinks Peters wanted to move is delusional. Peters is a very proud man and what he has done with his career and will never admit he cant play LT anymore. He would rather the team go down in flames then make the choice himself to move out of the tackle spot.

As always people only read and hear what they want and not understand the full comment that was posted, lol. Just if they quoted the entire sentence not just the first few words.

Anyone who’s seen JP play recently knows he was a huge liability at LT. If they want to keep Wentz out of a body bag they needed to do something. I also think they’re (correctly) concerned about Dillard’s future as the starting LT. Mailata is their best option.

Scratch Lane from that line, cause he’s out. I also wouldn’t be so ready to praise Peters at guard just yet. I don't think they're praising him at guard as much as they are praising him at NOT Left Tackle.

November 29, 20204 yr It does not matter, soon the title of this threat will be changed to "Jason Peters back on IR" Its only a matter of time. Sadly its what I thought when they resigned him. Its the Sproles situation all over again.

He went to the coach and told him he was playing tackle. JP does whatever he wants around there. Just more examples of the lack of accountability as a whole with this football team.
November 30, 20204 yr Few Philadelphia athletes have ruined their legacy in such a way as Jason has. The last 4 years really.
November 30, 20204 yr Peters has Turf Toe. I doubt he plays this game. Herbig wll be the right guard. Which means Wentz will be under constant pressure and is good for a fumble and a pick or two in this game. It will be interesting to see if Wentz can finish the game given the amount of hits he is going take in this one
