What happened to the Ham that was all obsessed about..." needing that top seed to have a bye and home field"   wow how the bar has dropped.

That happens when you only get four victories then pay your top paid player to play for somebody else the next season.

Ummmmmm - it's a continuous rebuild 

Would taking a top DB with that third first round pick have aided this team? Most likely. I really thought Honey Badger could have taken us up a notch also.

My goal every yr is to win the SB. That comes down to players, coaches who use them properly and injuries. The smartest coach can take a ragtang team and take them to the sb. Another great coach can take It is possible. a snakebit team into the netherland. This team - if healthey - can take the SB, imo.

Which ragtag team won a SB?

Every team doesn’t have the same bar. When you are climbing out of all the bad money and players from a four win team you have to climb your way out. Or many don’t climb their way out. I’d hope to get to be the superior team in all the land with home field advantage the whole way. Not where we are at right now. Climbing up from a ghastly four win team  just a season before last. 

The 2017 team had by far its most " dead money"  of any Eagles team at that point.    They dominated.   Stop with the excuses... it's on your QB now. No more excuses for him.

QB1 just recruited and brought in a top WR. You should be loving him after that.

What excuses does Hurts need? He was the backup. Beat out the guy that we traded everything for and paid the largest contract in franchise history.

No Mas you and sone others are all about judging where we’re were the first weeks of our new coaches. Haven’t ever been that concerned with that. Hoping we can be a dangerous team at the end of this season. 

Hoping we can beat a legit team.  The level of the opponent absolutely matters.

In your head, No Mas, you’re on an endless rebuild. It’s the NFL. Anything more than a three year plan is probably folly. Everything can change drastically.

Not this year my man... no excuses this year to not be able to beat s decent team.   Jalen Hurts needs to win with this team or at least show he can be competitive.  The hand he has been dealt....OL, WR and TE.   I'm not a fan of Sanders but you clearly would add him to the mix.  This team should be putting up 30 points regularly.   No excuses now.  Cox and Kelce still here... it's win now.  Absolutely win now.   

Win...light up the scoreboard and get paid... or bye bye time.

I’d take it a step further than that. Get a bye week and beat a good team….you’ll use that against them. What if they just came off a tough division game? Win a playoff game….that’s legit. Get everything a good team has that week for sure. That matters!

AJ just came here to play with Hurts….yet you are still trying to ship QB1 out.

Nope... one win vs a good team.. that's progress to me even if they lose the other 16 games. 

Guys want to follow Hurts. They want to play with him. They even rose up when everything looked lost.

You’ll happily trade away every pick from this draft. Pay players that are no longer on the team. Add very few FAs. But hold QB1 accountable for wins and losses. Gotcha.

That means we suck! Totally can’t agree. I don’t care who the one win is versus. If we lose the rest I’m pissed….we suck. That’s regression. Boy you’re on another planet with this obsession.

1-16 and in No Mas mind we are progressing….oh boy

Jalen Hurts beat the Saints both seasons. 12-4 in 2020 and 9-8 in 2022. That means they would have been 13-3 and 10-7 by beating us. Next excuse.

Page 1739:  No Mas declares 1-16 and we are progressing if the win is vs a good team.

Sarcasm...  just because I'm not angry about using a draft pick on a punter doesn't mean I wouldn't mind competion and the best results from the position.    Apparently some of you feel like we had to draft one or it's the end if the world. 

LOL,well I was thinking(right or wrong) that since we didn't address the secodary,the least we could do was get a punter (fail)

I want to go into next year feeling almost 100% that I have my franchise QB.  Or that it's time to move on.   The rest is all a distant second to me...because I feel those fixes will be so much easier.    The foundation of our team... QB and the lines... could all need changes next year.   Hurts, Kelce, Cox, Graham, Barnett... maybe Hargrave...  might all be gone.  These last 2 drafts, be nice to see these kids all step up.  

So while I absolutely wouldn't mind better punts...  I think it's pretty insignificant in the current big picture.  We played 17 games last year,won a game with a blocked punt... not sure our own punter cost us anything as the games we lost ( other than the Giants) weren't really close.

No it's not insignificant. since we refuse to address the secondary at, at least get a better punter.it's not that hard

4 hours ago, joemas6 said:

Right... but what do you disagree with.  We won a game with a blocked punt.  Other than the Giants game we weren't close to winning, so the punting ( while sure it could have been better) ultimately meant nothing as far as impact.   We should have 5 in camp...doesn't hurt or cost anything.  I have no problem with that.  

LOL ,if I punt for 46 yards and 12 inside the 20,and you punt 49 with 22 inside the 20,who do you put on the field? If I can improve a position,I will

AGAIN...NO PROBLEM WITH BRINGING IN GUYS TO PUNT DURING CAMP. ...   

I there a minimum amount of times it needs to be posted to be understood? 

Bringing in alot of mediocre will produce mediocre. Quality over quantity. Every position matters.It's sad we didnt address the secondary,but I understand why we gave picks up. The draft made this team better,that's the bottom line. Alot of punters went this draft because?????? So,I know that is back burner for now,but the position needs addressed if Sipos can't cover it. A future position that we need to address

Donnie Johnson>sipos

Mediocre is mediocre. Guys are drafted and not drafted for a reason? Donnie>Sipos. It needs addressed if you want to make SB run

LOL,no you can't set that bar every year. Nice dream,reality is different,you have to know where you are and how far away and what you lack to get there. Rebuild year 2. After next draft,we can talk about it
