So how do you guys feel about Howie now?

[JP HOF]

I admit, I was wrong and he was right about drafting Hurts.

Slay was worth what we gave for him.

Edwards, where did he come from?  Looks like a young Trotter.

Dickerson - definite dog.

Devante - smooth like a cadillac.

 

[Dave Moss]

Of course I like that he's trying to lock up players long-term, but he needs to do a better job drafting.  

Guys like Reagor and JJAW are high draft picks that should be making an impact.  They aren't.

You could make the argument that he's doing a good job rebuilding the team.

But you could also make the argument that he took a Super Bowl winner and turned them into a sub .500 club.

[Diehardfan]

How about you calm the freak down. They just played multiple average teams who have injuries.

This. 2019 is Sandars, 2020 is a wash with his early picks because Hurts isn't the long term answer regardless of what his fan boys think, and this year is still going but does look better. They are still tied to bad contracts and have way too many blown picks because you are right. He made a SB winner a sub 500 club.

I dare say he might be learning from his mistakes.

Yes, they are the tallest midget in the room playing better against heavily injured or average teams. I'd hope the defense looked better against a 3rd string QB missing their best player and two starters on their OL.

I am where I have been for some years. I think he is a top 5 GM in the league all things considered.

Who let Howie's wife have an account to post? They look like dog crap against good teams, playing better against average ones, calm the f down and stop patting Howie on the back because he still sucks. Some of you are like dogs chasing fire trucks down the street.

I have rarely if ever praised Howie.  They played 2 ****ty games this year, vs. Dallas and Las Vegas who I wouldn't call a good team.

oh geez, you want us to not feel good about winning.  What kind of ratman are you?  It must not be fun to live or work around you I'm guessing.

More like I'm not falling for the mirage and want him gone as soon as possible so a QB with a real chance of out passing another good QB in a playoff game or SB can take over. Outside of Manning with the Broncos that's exactly how most QB have won the last 10+ years and he isn't that guy.

well come back out of the past, this is the way to win in this era.  a highly mobile QB.

Welcome to reality jr but the effort is there. Highly mobile QB without the ability to pass the ball very well haven't won crap. Again, outside of Manning with that Bronco's defense every QB who has won the last 10 years had to out pass/keep up with the QB on the other side. Foles had to throw the ball non stop in ours, Brady, Mahomes, even Eli had to throw the ball to win his SBs. You don't know what you are talking about. In no reality are we going to see Hurts have multiple drives in a row without running the ball in order to keep up.

Just let him rage. Both Roseman and Hurts are here to stay, so he’s probably due for a really hard time anyways. 😁

Brady isn't remotely mobile. Mahomes is mobile but he'd throw first. Foles is a throw first QB too

Peyton is a statue and those are the SB winning QBs from 2015-present

What "era" are you talking about?

I'm talking about the fact that guys like Hurts and Lamar Jackson show that this dimension is now a feasable way to win.

They are Ben Simmons during the regular season as others have said. Looks great and gets people excited but that doesn't win in the playoffs.

The Eagles are averaging 34.5 points per game over their last 4 games.  This is football.  If you are consistently scoring that many points week to week then you will be giving yourself a chance in most games.

Against BS teams or ones missing starters during the regular season, sure. In a playoff game when the D has taken the run or you are behind and they know you are going to pass the ball only QB who can carve up a defense are going to win. That isn't Hurts. That isn't his skill set. That is why he isn't the guy.

Wow...a playoff game? Then how did it go? Freaking Tebow won a playoff game. Keep dying on that hill.

Defenses can stop pure passers too.
