LOL because why throw 8 yards when you can throw for 20? Fact remains they did fine without using a TE but we can't?

Because you could play QB and do fine if they gave you a 10 yard cushion.

Ellis gone bye bye

Greg Ward re-hi, signed to PS yet again. Howabout a position of need would be nice, although he does fill in as that crossover WR/TE kinda guy.

With the portal and paying players, it's the end of competitive college football. Not counting gambling as that's always been there, except not it's on steroids. Top schools already had the advantage of drawing the top players, now they can just outbid them. F'n whiney assed kids, already got free room and board, free education now millions of dollars as undergrads. I'll just be watching PSU and a handful of games, maybe not even that much. At least they're finally expanding the playoffs to 12, supposed to be implemented last yr but for a handful of conference heads.

SO we don't need a TE then to have offense. SO why can't our top WR's give Hurts a window,or why is Hurts not throwing the ball? yes I know,as I said I would rather have 20 yards than 8. Most QB's do

They didn't give us the same 10 yards cushion.

The point is they didn't need a TE for their offense to function

Toth re-signed to the PS

Bradberry was never targeted Sunday.   What a waste ....why pay him if we aren't going to use him?

Ohhhh wait....you mean it doesn't matter who gets the ball as long as the team scores?    

Maybe Bradberry " shut down" Kittle?

Idk...or maybe Purdy just took the easy option each time?

And apparently they didn't need the guy Bradberry was covering either.

Some on here think the QB is dominant and without flaws.  

Some think he should have won Super Bowl MVP

I have all my weapons... it's up to you now to decide how to defend them.   I'm going to the easiest option. 

If I avoid a player all the time,because you are allowing an easier option elsewhere...  it doesn't mean my guy who doesn't get a target...didn't have impact.   I didn't need to use him as a target,but being on the field impacted how you defended my group.

We just heard the Eagles say that since Goedert has been out, the only difference they are noticing from defenses...is that they are doubling AJ more.

So what does one guy impact?  1st he is better run blocker than his replacement,  who is a better run blocker than the 3rd TE.   

Second,  he is the #3 pass catching " threat" ... take away that threat, and now the defense can key on the top 2 guys more. 

Not really a difficult concept to get.  "But but but ...they didn't throw to Kittle "    who cares...he was there on the field, blocking and a their #3 receiving threat. 

The simple concept shouldn't have to be explained.   It's pretty much the whole strategy of basketball is playing off the best player(s) to get teammates open shots.   In every team sport, a player that needs attention from the opponent impacts the game.  With or without the ball.

Most think he would have without the absolutely bad individual play of fumbling un touched for  6 points the other way.

Had hoped when Ellis was cut we'd be signing Ertz

Site anything you want,the FACT is this offense cannot function without Goedert. Should be fairly obvious??? Never did I say he didn't make an impact. Obviously he is the key to the offensive ignition. Other TE';s were open and Hurts wouldn't throw to them. Wasted yardage. 46 passing yards to AJ in 2 games prior to the 9ers suits you???? I need more production. So it's obvious we can't have an offense without Geodert

Or maybe we couldn't do the same and got our arse kicked

So no matter if Kittle was targeted or just forgotten,they didn't use the TE for much and put up a beating on us and we can't function without Goedert. So both TE's were out of the picture for whatever reasons you choose to site. How did they do compared to us?. Hurts is supposed to be a better QB than Purdy and that wasn't even close. Anyway,done with this petty "argument"

So why not get Ertz in here?

IDK other teams are looking at him like KC and SF,Ravens etc. I'm sure we are looking

Did Goedert play vs Buffalo? How many points did we score?

YAY 1 game WOOOOOO. Hurts RAN for TD's. We won because of Elliott.Like I said done with this petty BS. This offense is inconsistent and we're not going anywhere in post season if we let this continue. You have your opinion,I have mine no more responses on this

Damn Nick Bosa telling the media that they put the blueprint out there for stopping Jalen Hurts and our O saying hopefully the cowboys watched the film
