Franklin is a hell of a recruiter , ps teams under him have serious talent .

Unfortunately, they have to play games.

That's not true... they watch every snap from every player around the league and their breakdowns are the best available statistics on how to rank all the players across the league.

It was a joke, son.

Dry remains easier... No cooler needed, no bag... no extra jug... 

I did one myself one year... too much work.

I am wet brining this year with a seasoned brine to get some flavor into the breast.  Putting it in tonight.  Will take out tomorrow and let it dry in my basement fridge overnight.  Seriously considering spatchcocking as opposed to starting it out upside down.  Everything I have read suggests this is the best way to cook the turkey.  If the wife will let me, I’ll make a white wine gravy with fresh thyme and rosemary from the garden.  Seriously considering some fresh sage leaves on the bird.   Rather baste than butter though.  (Wife doesn’t like smoke on her bird, although she eats my beer can chicken, so I don’t get that, so the bird will cook in the oven.  Anybody heard of sticking a pizza stone under the roaster to even out the heat?

Man, we're gonna have a decision on our hands when Brooks is healthy.

I still think they plug him back in, but it is no longer a no-brainer.

There's at least one pressure from Driscoll.

PFF didn’t watch that one.  

It appears they did, actually. The tweet says one pressure. 

Carry on.

Agreed.  Lots of people love mowing the grass.  Different strokes.

I live on the west coast, so it’s pretty uncommon to find other Eagles fans out here and when I do I always get excited and make a point to say Go Birds to them. They usually say it back or throw a wave. Saw a guy today wearing an Eagles hat, I told him Go Birds, he gave me a weird look and didn’t say anything back. 
 

was incredibly disappointing. I hate fans like that 

Where are you on the West Coast?

Agreed ... when the stuffing is done outside the bird, the bird cooks better and the stuffing is better ... and safer from a health perspective.

I do my stuffing outside the bird but my mother loved "wet dressing”.  She did a bread stuffing which meant as it absorbed liquid it shrunk in the bird.  She preached, it is called stuffing but don’t stuff the bird.  She never forced it full, would "unstuff” the bird with about a half hour left and cook that stuffing and the bird separately after that.  Spooning that stuffing out of a hot bird wasn’t worth the pain but she loved it that way.  

So from Football Outsiders, we are 12th overall in DVOA.  7th in offense, 18th in defense, and 10th in special teams.

We are third in rushing offense.

Our special teams are lead by Elliot, who is fourth in FG/XP.  Our kickoffs and punts are good/neutral.  Our returns are just bad.

All of those rankings seem about right

I had an older gentleman here (Florida) play the Eagles’ fight song on his phone when I walked into physical therapy for the first time. It was pretty awesome. Eff that "fan” you saw, though.

He's not a fan, he just liked the hat.

Someone I would like to take a look at later in the draft is Zay Flowers. Think he'd be a solid slot guy moving forward. 

Obviously not a huge need, but I would take a flyer.

WR might be more of a need than you think.

It definitely is, but I'd rather add a vet via FA and focus on defense and OL early.

 

Good pick by Howie/Stout. Stout has a job for life. 

I know Siriani was not asked about Brandon Brooks. Anyone heard when he may return?

Id like to know his percentage completing 3rd and 6 or more through the air. Seemed to be about 0. 

Anybody else still having a hard time processing what’s going on with this team?

Im still very confused here and having a hard time wrapping my mind around this turnaround.
