In other news, what a hideous decision by the Eagles here. 

 

 

Why would you actually want Lamar?

Is that their playing weight though? 200 lbs is still light for a NFL RB, especially when that's their max. I wasn't as impressed with Gainwell as a lot of others were, but he was by far the best receiving RB and hopefully that is something the team uses more.

Pollard, arguably the cowpads #1 RB is 6’ 209.  So Scott at 5’6” and 203 is stouter and more solid.  The commies #2, McKissic is 5’10” and 195.  The giants number 2, Brieda is 5’10” and 190.  That’s Huntley sized, 5’9” and 193.  Bryan Westbrook was 5’10” and 203.  Really, except bulling it at the goal line, size doesn’t matter as much as quickness, agility and balance in a RB.  But the strongest asset a RB can have is sight.  Seeing the hole and getting small through it.  (The next greatest trait is ball control.). Take Holyfield.  He busted because he was too slow getting to the hole and too big to get through it. No doubt he was strong but strength and size doesn’t get through the hole.  In contrast, Blount was much bigger, as strong but great burst to the hole and real good inside sight. 

What I don’t like about Huntley is his vision.  Like most speed backs, he thinks he can get to the corner.  Gainwell showed pretty good sight and good inside vision.  Quick through the hole and willing to take what is there, something Sanders failed on last year way too much.  Gainwell’s pass pro is what hurts him. That kept Scott ahead of him when the Eagles went to the running game.  But both Gainwell and Scott play through contact.  BTW, that rookie UDFA showed good sight at OU.  Biggest knock on him is no second gear.  That lack of burst. Frankly, I am not convinced the final roster back is on the team at this point.

All hail Dear Leader Eagle5!

 

Not that it matters at all, but how is that an improvement? lol

I haven't said anything one way or the other about wanting Lamar.  Fact is as it stands right now with QBs and their relationships with their current teams that Lamar is most likely the best veteran QB that might be available for a trade next offseason.  

I personally believe that Hurts will solidify the job for the foreseeable future this upcoming season but if he doesn't then Lamar makes a ton of sense for the Eagles.  Top 10 QB, a proven winner, former MVP and he will be turning just 26 next year.  He would also be walking into easily the most talented supporting cast on offense that he has had in his career. 

Not an improvement. I don't care much overall, but as a collector of sports paraphernalia, if I see that ugly ass paint shop pro font on the jerseys I'll be none too happy.

I wonder if they are going to change the Endzones too. That would be an equally awful decision.

Probably when you quoted me and @'d him about the bet.  He is such a petty little troll, he will put people on ignore that quote me.

Will most definitely be changed in the endzone as well. Looks like how Nike will redo a team's logo when they do their awful uniform redesigns. 

 

Makes me wonder if this is the prelude to a new Eagles jersey design. 

The new logo sucks.

F the QB conversation. Can we all come together and hate this together for a minute?

It is a reflection of the current QB1 RB1

It literally looks like it was made in Microsoft Paint while someone took a dump

Goedert finished 5th in receiving yards last year by tight ends. Here's a crazy stat look at the targets by top 9 TE's last year

Andrews - 153 targets  107 receptions 1,361 yards
Kelce - 134 targets 92 receptions 1,125 yards
Pitts - 110 targets 68 receptions 1,026 yards
Kittle - 94 targets 71 receptions 910 yards
Goedert 76 targets 56 receptions 830 yards
Shultz - 104 targets 78 receptions 808 yards
Gronk - 89 targets 55 receptions and 802 yards
Gesicki  - 112 targets 73 receptions 780 yards
Ertz - 112 targets 74 receptions 763 yards

If you average the other top 8 that is 113.5 targets.  Gotta think that # of target goes up this year
 

 

 

He was pretty efficient with those targets as well catching 73% of his targets.

If his targets go up and he can keep his catch rate at around 70 he could have a really good season.

Jalen Hurts made it in Paint.

He drops some easy passes. The best right ends have better hands than him. Put the Pom poms down 

Kelce dropped six last year.

Gronk dropped eight.

It happens.

Now half the fan base will defend it

Goedert has great hands.  He made some of the best catches this past season.

Imagine the dude who gets paid the big bucks for this ... Dude types in EAGLES into Word then go through every single type of font and then goes yeah Courier New... That's the one.  Way better than Calibri and Times New Roman  That new Eagles chant is going to be fire also

 

E. A. G. L. E. 5   EAGLE 5!!!

 

 

Did a team of a hundred people come up with the new font?
