    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

The most interesting one is Cox. Deforest Buckner got the Niners a first rounder. Cox is still very good. I wouldn’t put it past a team that is close and needs D-Line help to give up some decent capital. Bills, Seahawks, hell... the Rams don’t seem to care about draft picks. 
 

Also... if I could get a 3rd and day 3 pick for Hurts, I’d send him packing. Can’t imagine him making himself more valuable after a 16 game season with average talent and a rookie head coach. JH will make a nice career out of being a high end backup. He’s Tyrod, Keenum, Colt McCoy, etc. 

 

I’d shop Sanders too. I’m guessing Sirianni wants a bruiser. That’s just speculation. 

If we could get a 1st for Fletch, that's a no -brainer. Not sure we can get it. Same with BG. Frankly, I'd take a 2nd for either one.

I honestly believe it. Hurts was a Howie pick. Doug was forced to make a move during the season and he wanted to go back to him. Only a moron wouldn't see the potential Wentz has and at least want to give it a shot at rebuilding him.

The fact Howie still has a job with all the bad contracts and picks shows he sold Lurie on some bull. Part of that bull was obviously covering his backside on that stupid 2nd round pick and saying they should go all in for him. The fact they hired a young coach is going to be the next round of cover because he didn't know how to use him right.

Howie is the problem.

 

I does make more sense this way.  Doug wanted Press who is a Wentz dude to become OC and move forward with Wentz and HOWIE wants to go with Hurts so they clear everyone out.  The way Doug talked about Wentz was in higher regard than what Howie and Jeff did.

I mean that could be Howie the spin machine. But I really don't know. 

The Howie spin machine has spun so many times he can't decide whether to spin Carson as the problem or the valuable trade asset.

This. Howie's spin machine is all about the Hurts pick lately.

He also didn’t welcome sirianni on Twitter and making $100 million. Probably should trade him

So Carson hates AFan

Well, well, well.  Carson really doesn’t want out.

So everyone’s just writing their own Carson Wentz fan fiction and reporting it as news. Cool.

But what do we think this means? Does he leave still do you think? If his issue is with Howie then does Lurie have a decision to make?

Is Fletcher taking Howie's calls?

I guess I'm in a tiny minority here but I think Hurts has a chance to be a really good player. His arm is good enough and he can work on that, He's obviously mobile, and he doesn't repeat his mistakes endlessly the way Carson did this past season. Hell, he was way better than Carson even coming in cold. And I got sick of Carson backing out of the pocket time after ttime.

I'm not sure I believe anything BRobNFL says after he admitted to trolling already. You lose any credibility after that.

I hope that Lurie just doesn't give Howie cart blanche to do whatever he wants and then just smiles and nods at his decisions.  Nor do I want Lurie to be as hands on as Skeletor down in Dallas.  If Lurie has a good relationship with Carson and so far it looks as if Carson is getting along with Sirianni and the O staff (with however much or little contact they've had to this point) then I hope that Lurie will listen more to his HC and O staff than the weasel-snake Howie.  There are some instances where you do want the owner to step in and make a command decision.  The question most of here would have is whether Lurie has the objectivity to do that.

Hard to say what the real truth of this situation is as there's reports coming from all angles and some of them contradict each other.  Amazing what a monkey house clown car ish show clusterF drama-queen of an organization this has turned into.

That Liberal Elite guy linked the above SI article, which I find more interesting than "Howie not answering the phone." Some source saying Doug was the one who wanted to keep Carson, and the FO wanted to move on.

Some day we're gonna get the whole story. This whole situation is a mess.

So what do all the "Schefter doesn't just throw crap at the all wall or speculate. He's the best in the business and is saying this because he talks to people" have to say about this report?

So what have I missed? Doug wanted Carson, Howie didn’t. Carson will talk to anyone but Howie. This should end well.

SI article confirms what I’ve been saying for about a year now. Howie didn’t draft hurts to be the backup QB. they sold everyone on this theory it was about getting a cheap young backup QB but he saw hurts as a franchise type QB and that’s why they drafted him. They pushed this BS narrative Carson was on board and howie was lying through his teeth as he knew wentz was likely pissed at that fact. Doesn’t excuse Wentz crappy year but puts into perspective Howie is a Fing weasel and spins crap because he is a master manipulator. There’s a reason why former players continue to say it is him. That speaks volumes.

Eagles were $60M over the cap in any of those other scenarios?  

No, but I don't make the rules.  Also, Howie was the GM for all of those moves.
