Saying I like to have his luck , is saying he is/was lucky .

He does have luck. That doesn't mean he isn't arguably (most likely) the greatest QB the game has ever seen. Is that so difficult to admit that with greatness there is luck involved?

Tuck rule wasn't lucky?

Malcolm Butler wasn't lucky?

Edelmans catch against the Falcons wasn't lucky?

Matt Ryan completely wetting the bed when he literally could've kneeled three times isn't lucky?

(To be fair, all the credit in the world for that comeback. Props.)

Dee Ford lining up offsides isn't lucky?

Putting up 13 points in a Super Bowl and still winning by two scores isn't lucky?

He is still the GOAT, but let's not pretend he's been on some bottom dweller team with no support his entire career and still managed to win 7 rings.

Cheating for at least some of them

You could make a list of lucky plays for every QB to ever play the game ,  and there is no doubt he is the best ever to play the position , probably best player to ever play the game .

Thank you for not insulting our intelligence by not putting Smith as WR #1. I hate the "rookies have to earn it" when they're clearly the best player

Still carrying on with this nonsense of a LT competition.

Have to pump up Dillard to trade him.

It’s kind of hilarious this is the best a professional organization can do on Excel.

I’ll be interested to see if Singleton can build on last year’s impressive performance.

I understand that. My point being that in addition to him being great, he's been very lucky with many things. I don't know why it's so hard for you to admit that.

I know it's unofficial but some weird stuff there 

Boston Scott listed as the last RB.

Gernard Avery as a Starter.

Harry Croom ahead of Jackson.

And of course as mentioned pretending Dillard Mailata is still a " battle"

Just call it and stop playing stupid games.

Unnecessary middle man.  Sounds like a perfect strategy for delay of games.

Tom Brady is not the GOAT.

BTW Barnett’s restructure makes him a lot more valuable to other teams in a possible trade.

They're not playing any games yet that matter; what is the harm of both players competing through camp?  Should Seumalo sit out the season because he isn't practicing at all in camp?

Because it's clear Mailata is the winner and he is a guy who played his first football last year.  He needs all the reps he can get with the starting unit to be in the best position to do well this season. 

Really don’t understand the point of having someone else relay the play call to the QB

Great for his trade value

While that is true, not sure why the Eagles did it.  Sure, they opened up cap 7.2 million in cap room for this year, but if he is traded, all the void years cap hits accelerate to 2022, leaving a dead cap hit of 7.2 million.

Wow, you're right!

A base salary of $990,000 means that any team in contention at the trade deadline could afford him. Now, we'll be on the hook for 7.2M in dead money if we trade him...is that worth a 2nd round pick? Put it this way. If Barnett is playing at a good level at EDGE, he could get a 2nd rounder at the deadline should we not want to, or can't, extend him.

This restructure gives us good optionality.

As a WSU fan who wants him to do well, he appears on the road to being a bust. 

2019 and 2020 first and second rounders.

Dillard - on the road to being a bust

Sanders - top 15 back, but will they extend him when the time comes.

JJAWful - BUST

Reagor - may be a decent #2, but not going to be a big time #1.

Hurts - may not even be the QB in 2022.

That is just horrible drafting, and people wonder why the Eagles are in the situation they are in.
