Ready to see more of Watkins and less of Reagor. 

I think they both need to be on the field with reagor in the slot. None of this matters anyway considering the QB has the hots for Smith and Gainwell and the coach schemes literally nothing to middle if a wideout is involved. This is our passing scheme. 

Left = Smith (stare down)

Middle =just tightends and gainwell. 

Right = roll and run or very short pass to whomever rolled that way. 

Nobody is being schemed correctly to their assets. It's kinda been hard to watch when you know they are capable of so much more.

It improves the team by putting them on notice that subpar play won't be rewarded with a roster spot. In JJAW 's case he's a wide receiver who cannot receive. ST blockers are a dime a dozen. Grab a FA TE or LB'er who can play ST. If the replacement must be a WR, I'd rather they pull a guy like Seth Roberts off the scrap heap than to keep rewarding a guy whose greatest achievement is...nothing. As I said before, it's not about the minutia of a particular position this season it's about a culture change. No longer will a get-by be rewarded.

So ... just a couple weeks after the head coach praises  a player for embracing the role the team asked of him and doing it well, we should cut the guy to send the complete opposite message? Great idea! I understand you just don't like the guy, but he also made the team (final WR spot) because of his WR play in practice / training camp.

 

"The message to the receivers is, ‘Hey when that ball gets out on the perimeter, you never know when that's going to happen, so you have to be blocking your tails off every single time,’” Sirianni said. "Because when that ball gets on the perimeter and you do your job, we can turn a 10-yard run into a 20-yard run or 30-yard run or 40-yard run or whatever it may be.

"And I saw J.J. do that very well and very efficiently. And we didn't just throw him out there to do that because we didn't have a feel that he was going to do that. He's been showing that to us every single day in practice.”

"He'll be rewarded with catches from that,” said the coach. "I know he wasn't (Sunday), but we're going to have to marry things together so he's getting some touches off that, as well. So we have that threat to run and pass it. But I thought he did a great job.”

I'm sure he will some day. So far...

Well, the Birds have been getting f'd pretty hard the last couple weeks.

Just trying to keep my hope alive:

An Eagles team with rookie coaches, a rookie QB, totally damaged offensive line and more... lost by 12 points to a loaded Super Bowl team. K.C. should have destroyed them, but only won by less than 2 TD's.

There you have it- my "Hope for the Day."
