Hey guys, just looking at newest Eagle Andrew Adams, and something extremely disturbing just caught my eye.

My main issue is Howie is just going back to what he knows and what has already failed. They bounced Adrian Killins on and off the roster all year and didn't even sign him to a futures deal but then give him a two year deal. Same with Ridgeway. He plays ok as a 3/4 DT but two years in a row he gets a season ending injury without even playing half the season, but he's a guy they sign with limited resources. You did a complete tear down with the coaching staff, lets bring in some new blood. 

Why can't they get Anthony Walker. Makes too much sense so it probably won't happen

I am sure there is something there, probably not as bad as reported.  Lawyer involved is an epic ambulance chaser, and apparently there is some type of relationship between him and Cal McNair, the Texans owner.

Well the Houston ownership is shifty as hell and still these allegations should be taken seriously.

Not sure what the motive would be of ownership smearing their own highly paid ultra talented player.

The smear ones own disgruntled franchise qb would certainly be an Interesting move to either compel him to drop his trade demands or get him suspended which would I assume forfeit some of watsons contract and leave the texans without a qb and zero compensation in a trade 

Sounds like a  conspiracy out of Qnon😵

Could you name one college basketball player from pitt(with out google). I couldnt hand to god. 

Im not a big BBALL guy but ZERO chance lol

Former Knick Charles Smith, know that because I was a fan of the 90's Knicks teams, and Arizona coach Sean Miller, know that as I am a WSU fan and see U of A all the time.

On top of that, I have an encyclopedia of worthless sports knowledge rattling around in my head.  I could have given Howie Schwab a run for his money.

I am sure it will turn into a ish show of epic proportions, but it is probably just a money grab.

Changing subject, what's up with drivers in Utah.  Just out paralyzing former NBA greats.

I don't have time to do math right now. I'm sure our accounts could have figured it out since its what they do 

I'll save you the time since you apparently have enough time to complain about every free agent we don't get but not enough time to actually check whether it was feasible.  No, we could not create the money.

We don't have the resources needed to get him, but the laughs would be epic after all the Hurts hand wringing if the Eagles pulled it off somehow.

 

Maybe hold off either way

Sure buddy, sure we couldn't. They miraculously created 50 mil to get under the cap but could get another 10? Trade Ertz/Barnett , restructure Johnson/Cox, done. I don't complain about every one. Hilton and Samuel, yeah. Seeing the giants going hard after Galloday. Yeah

Got Dejuan Blair who played for the Spurs for a while. I believe Steven Adams went to Pitt. 

their football program has actually has had some really good and hall of fame players: Fitzgerald, Donald, Mccoy, Curtis Martin, Tony Dorsett, Marino, Russ Grimm and ditka to just name a few.

Brother, you were throwing a tantrum over Anthony Walker VISITING another team

The reality of it sucks and seeing it play out is somehow worse, even though we knew it was coming.  What really makes it bad is seeing Washington and NYG bringing in solid players.  It used to be we'd laugh at ridiculous signings but now it seems the other NFCE teams are just bringing in players that make sense and help improve their teams.  Then you add to the fact that the one player who made sense to bring back in Jalen Mills (haters will hate I think he was OK at safety) left within the first few hours of tampering. 

We have NO secondary and every the NFCE is becoming loaded with WR talent.  It's going to be UGLY.

Just a philosophical note, but when I see the NFC East stacking up on wrs, my first thought is not, "wow, our secondary sucks and isn’t ready for this.”

It is...wow our WRs and passing offense blows and we will never hang with these teams.

I just feel that’s the way the nfl is making these teams compete.  A bunch of expensive cbs doesn’t fix that problem.  Look at what happened to Slay when we stuck him on great WRs.   The secondary needs uniform improvement, but that’s different from major investment.

That is the complaint.  It is not feasible because the worst GM in the NFL has destroyed the roster with poor drafting and has destroyed the ability to supplement with free agent signings with bad contracts and bad FA signings.

I would not have known Blair, but should have thought of Adams.  F that Kiwi though.

Yes and since I started posting here a week ago, you've posted 1000 times about the complaint.  We get it.  Howie screwed up the cap the last couple of years with misguided signings trying to delay the inevitable rebuild.  We all understand that the next two years is the medicine we need to take for that mistake.  But what this guy is doing is throwing a temper tantrum about all of these guys we're not signing because he refuses to accept where we are and that a team cannot just go on competing forever without a step back.

Has Ridgeway been on the team the last 2 years or did he take a little hiatus with another team?

Ok, so he was/is one of my realistic favorite players to add to this joke of a defense. 27, solid player, wouldn't cost too much, can wear the green dot for Gannon's defense. So maybe my passionate fandom got me when I read he was visiting somewhere else. We are in tatergeddon. What's wrong with a in the heat of the moment disgruntled tirade type message

He's hurt every year we've had him 

You’re supposed to   re-tool in today’s NFL , not rebuild .

3 minutes ago, Peppersmacks said:

This is false if the team is managed correctly.  Bad extensions to aging players, bad mid season trades and bad drafting will do that.  

And it is not forever, 3 years removed from the Super Bowl we have a 4-11-1 record, a disaster of a cap situation, and multiple draft classes that one or no players are left on the roster.

You re-tool when you have a franchise qb over the course of his career.  You rebuild when you have nothing.

Also missed 11 games the year before we traded for him.

Over a 3 year span he played 19 games and missed 29

I agree, see my post last night where I actually laid out the WRs in the NFCE.  It's ugly to look at and very depressing. 

Poor Deshaun Watson....when did getting a little rub and tug become so wrong?

Nice to see this 12PM press conference starting right on time!

Howie must be finalizing a deal with a 4th string LB who is also a special teams ace

The Niners hit the dumps and turned it around in a  short period of time so I remain hopeful of a quick turnaround...in fact I am very excited to see a team with a bunch of young players being pushed into starting roles. I am looking forward to seeing who starts making a name for themselves...of course there will be more moral victories than actual wins.
