I hate to break it to you, completing 45.6% of your passes in the second half, and only scoring points on 2 of 22 second half possessions is not elite.  It's not even serviceable.

It was sarcasm.

Looking closer at the schedule...

• No Chance in Hell: KC, TB
• Any Given Sunday: SF, LAC
• Better Rosters, but with Questions: NO, WFT x2, DAL x2
• Same Tier: ATL, LV, DET, CAR, DEN, NYG x2
• God Forbid: NYJ

OL stays healthy, Hurts is not great but OK, DL protects our secondary...who knows?

I'm not sure they are in the same tier as the Falcons based on when they are playing them. OL and Ryan should be healthy week 1 and could put up points in a flash.

Until we know who CB2 is I'm not sure a few others aren't better as well. Big questions at LB as well.

On offense if teams take Smith away what other WR is going to pick up the load on offense? Talent there but tons of questions. Forgetting we have no idea how the rookie coach's offense will do, how he will be with adjustments, or what his game plans will look like. Then yeah....how does Hurts look and the OL hold up? Holes and questions all over.

I'm vaccinated, but I hate people so I avoid them anyways

That can't be correct, he's on his rookie contract and was a 4th round pick and he's more than a 2nd round pick like Kerryon Johnson?

Edit: Guess it is since all the cap sites have it. Weird structure. Maddox is apparently the same.

I am fully vaccinated but will wear a mask if requested indoors as it doesn’t bother me to comply. We keep gathering data on the efficacy of the vaccine. I fully expect a booster may be required.   I am a bit concerned about the effectiveness of the flu shot this coming fall.  Sounds like a lack of data may impact the guess at the strains collected.  I will say this about the precautions taken.  I don’t recall going for almost a year and a half without a cold in my lifetime but my last respiratory illness was in January 2020. Masks and social distance works. 

If I'm requested to wear one I won't act like an a-hole about it. I would wear one.

What percentage of the non-vaccinated are clinically recovered and likely loaded with anti-bodies?  What percentage of the remainder are previously exposed or previously asymptomatic?

There is no public health justification for continuing any of the mitigation measures that were installed 14 months ago.  There is also no evidence, whether anecdotal data or actual scientific study, that illustrates any of the mitigation measures actually had any benefit.  

Full capacity events with no restrictions of any kind should be permitted immediately.  Happy to see the NFL and the Eagles are planning accordingly.

There is substantial evidence that those infected (especially those infected with the first wave) are susceptible to some of the variants.

You don't want to play Virus Roulette, get vaccinated!

For most people, it's not about dying, though the new variants may be more deadly, but do you want to chance 1-5% odds of being a long-hauler and dealing with crap for a year or longer?

CDC just announced that those vaccinated can socialize without masks indoor or outdoors - they had to wait for studies to show that vaccinated people were unlikely to either get infected, or carry a large enough viral load to be infectious. Takes time to conduct a study and validate results.

At this point, I don't care what happened to people too stupid to get vaccinated, millions have gotten the vaccine, the only ill-effects were J&J, and there is was an extremely low number developing treatable blood clots. If you want to take your chances, go for it, improve the gene pool.

Me, I get my second shot Sunday, come June, I'm a free man.

I don’t understand why.  People piss me off.   

Yeah, it's helping the Yankees right now. I got the shot, but whatever. Doesn't mean much.

Oh boy.  Here we go.  I think we just found one of the over 30%.   They got the J&J shot.  Which is not as effective as the Pfizer.  Either way, the vaccines helps lesson the symptoms and doesn’t make it impossible to get it.  6 of the 7 Jankies are not showing symptoms.
 

 

 

But you got us.  

We heard you the first time Yankee fan.  JFC 

I'm not a Yankee fan at LOL you are just acting pissy. So now we are putting the non vax in one spot and the J&J people have to sit in another section. And the 2 shot people (who I know have caught it as well) are the really safe safe ones. Let me know when the class system for the BS for all this is finished. Also, we don't know if it is as effective or not because they haven't been tested against the variants yet. And once again...I got the shots. Doesn't mean crap, which is why they are planning boosters for all of them. It's never going to stop. There will always be one more step they tell us to reach for and then once we get there another. Do I wish everyone would get them? Yes. But I sure as heck understand why some want to wait it out.

I anticipate that there will be a portion of the population that will continue to mask at their discretion.

The stark absence of the regular flu last winter will motivate some to modify their behavior in public (although not required) for health concerns.

Just bought 4 tix for the Carolina game.  

I was there for the 2017 Thurs night game. Nice city, really good people there. Took my son and hit up a Hornets preseason game as well while we were there. Keep Pounding, ool

WTF does that even mean?

Pretty simple terms: Was a nice city and had a good time while we were out there for the Eagles game. 

Im sure you know what the "Keep Pounding" means being your from the area? 

On Barnett's weight, I believe Caplan thought he was at 230lbs, but it was Avant who clarified it was nearer 215lbs when TC started, and possibly there was a medical reason for it.

Just now, 4for4EaglesNest said:

I’m not from the area.  I moved to NC less than 2 years ago and am 3 hours from Charlotte.  So no.  Don’t know how it pertains to the panthers.  

Its the chant at the Panthers stadium. Thats all you will hear during the game, lol. Was Kind of funny hearing it, so gay you had to laugh at it.

so the eagles are going to pound town.... 

Try https://www.originalpancakehousencsc.com/ while your there. Was very good breakfast spot. 

We also ate at a pub that was mainly a Penn State/Steelers themed. Was good. they had a  ton of good restaurants and bars there. With a 10 year old though he wanted all cheese burgers so limited my options, lol.

JFC.  Let’s try this again.  
 

I acknowledge that you enjoyed the city of Charlotte.  I acknowledge that you went to an Eagle game there.  I acknowledge that "keep pounding” is a saying by their 15 fans. 
 

But WHAT IS THE RELEVANCE?   

That Panthers fans love pound cake. Duhhhh lol

I may be speaking out of turn but I think the relevance is he had a good time with good memories and he hopes you will as well.  

Random thought:

Who would you guys say is the most overrated player on the roster? Just curious what people think.

For me, it's Dallas Goedert by a country mile.

From the fanbase, Mailata and Ward. 

In general, I'd agree and say Goedert. Slay too.
