Of coarse.

I usually have to edit out a type or two in longer posts. My brain thinks quicker than my fingers do.

My phone constantly auto corrects words that make zero sense in the context of what I'm typing.

Most frequently it always chances in to if and on to in😡

    I turned 38 today and have lost 52lbs since February. I’m very rarely ever proud of myself, but I’m feeling pretty proud today and thought I’d share. Carry on.

  • At this point, I’d like to see a former HC on the staff, but the biggest coaching news left is whether Stout stays.  BOOOOOOOOM

Sounds like a problem with the offensive scheme not the qb.

Doug's O was super predictable and vanilla and convoluted.

Hopefully Siriani and his OC do a better job than the eleventy billion offensive assistants the eagles had last year.

Offensive scheme was for sure a major problem. Another part of the article points out how Wentz was the worst in the NFL without presnap motion and how much better he was with presnap motion, yet Doug didn't really do it a lot.

But it also falls on the QB too. Wentz was also the worst at one step drops and play action. I think a lot of that falls on the QB vs the scheme. And as far as being bad on no blitz/pressure it's a combo of bad offensive scheme and QB's not reading the coverages properly.

Whats racist? I never once brought up the color of anyone's skin. 

You take away just the 1/4 of peiple from Philly who never graduated High school and the other guy wins. 

Do have a complete and utter sh11t hole like philly determine a states election out come should be a serious issue. 

Biden won 13 counties out of 67. Of those 13, all of them were in the top 10 of crime. 

It's ironic, and funny honestly to lay the American Crime map over top of the election map and see how exactly perfect the fit. 

side note, 3.4 million votes for Biden,  1/3 were Pittsburgh and Philly

That's because livestock can't file assault charges.

How many votes for Trump from banjo country?

Of course Biden got a lot of votes from the two cities, uh, aren't cities where a lot of people live?

The risk of death from COVID for the age group of 12-24 is not close to roughly 1%.  It's roughly 0.01%.

 

 

I think you're wrong about that and the risk for hospitalization and death is what I was talking about.  But assume it is .01%, do the math and what do you get? The chances of death are still 10 times that of a minor complication from the vaccine.  So get out of here with your fear based reasoning you dope.

Wasn't there an offensive coach brought in just for pre snap motion???

Im going to assume he was a hire Howie forced on Doug which could explain the lack of motion on offense, either that or that pre snap motion coach was just an egg head.

Hopefully Siriani and Co can implement a better scheme, and hopefully Lowie stay out of those decisions and stay in their Lane and let the coaches coach.

Yea, Scangarello. You couldn't really tell by what you watched on game days.

Yeah Scangarello, whose sole purpose was to bring more pre snap motion to the offense as stats showed previously that the top offenses in the league used a lot of pre snap motion.

So what did Doug P do??? not use motion.

Makes one wonder what the other 50 guys were doing.

I'm sure Marty Moronwhig sole job was to tell Doug to pass every down, or advise him on overtime strategy👎

A minor complication?  Young people who don't have a need to get vaccinated for this are getting bad heart inflammation and only 81% of of them are fully recovering.  Also that 0.01% of that age group that is dying from COVID almost certainly are people of very dire health that were likely and unfortunately heading towards a way too early death due to other health circumstances that they were dealing with already.

Everything we do as humans has risk. It is a balance of benefit and risk. You want no risk? Continue to sit in your Mom's basement eating hot pockets and we can add you to a cholesterol study in the future. Your need to be the voice of special knowledge that only you see, ala your "Foles insights" is pathological. You know that, right?

Exactly, so people have the right to decide what  they do and don't put in their body, they have a right to balance the benefit and the risk and come to their own decision.  

Since he came into the league, Wentz was always good to great on 3rd downs, even his rookie year he was good. 2017 was top 2 or 3 and 2018 -2019 he was probably top 5.  

Teams finally figured that out, add in poor play calls, and you get 2020.  They both deserve blame, he threw some bad picks and bad throws overall that had zero to do with Doug.  Everyone has seen the Seattle play where Reagor doesn’t even have a defender within 10 yards and that was before the ball was even snapped, Reagor on an island by himself and Carson didn’t even look at him.

  Wentz’s mechanics by the 4th game of 2020 were shot, he didn’t step into his throws and anything going left was awful, his front foot was pointing towards the end zone, all the way to the right corner of the end zone on some throws.  Press Taylor was obviously out of his element and shouldn’t have been a QB coach, that much is for sure. Doug should of never returned for 2020, whether he admits it or not, dude was done arguing with Jeff and Howie rightly or wrongly, he was toast. Everything went to crap, his play calling, Carson’s play, the injuries, the lack of talent on offense, just like in 2017 when everything went right except for Carson’s injury, in 2020 everything went wrong it started when Doug’s guys were fired, to him returning, the drafting of Hurts, the lack of an off-season and fed on through the entire season. 

 With Reich as his coach, one thing his off-season program will have is Carson throwing 500 balls a week to the left, his old lady is gonna have to put the kid down and learn how to catch a football.

With SIrianni as his HC, Hurts will spend the summer perfecting his mechanics, reps over and over and over. Who did SIrianni learn from?

The funny thing is both QBs may do quite well, solid OLs, QB friendly coaching staffs. Both teams focused on player development.

In that case, the Eagles walk away with a 1st, 3rd, more cap room and a QB who is six years younger.

Except in the case of covid vaccination one is weighing risks to others.

The risks to others not getting vaccinated outweigh the risks one assumes Individually when getting vaccinated.

If one is making a decision based off a cost benefit analysis and is only considering the cost and benefit to oneself disregarding the affects that decision has on everyone else then one is making a selfish decision based on the cost or benefit to self.

One can argue about the costs and risks til one is blue in the face and what it comes down to is, are you measuring the costs and benefits for just you or for you and others?

Is one selfish, or considerate?

I guess being 10 times more likely to die isn't as bad as heart inflammation.  I mean everyone know heart inflammation is worse than death.

Two guys on that team that were just role players but were key to that 17 team were Chris Long and Blount 

Both had a lot of swag and just knew how to bring a locker room together, wish both had been eagles longer, glad they were when they were👍

Yeah being hospitalized is worse than the near non-existent chance of dying from a virus for a healthy young person.

Is the risk that one not being vaccinated and infecting a high risk person  outweighed by the minimal chance one could get hospitalized by being vaccinated???

The fact that you can't see how you are being selfish is ironic.
