Who has made that take.  I have seen a bunch of people question Hurts ability to improve, point out his faults, and are ready for the new QB in 2023.

Name one person who has said they want the Eagles to suck.

RTK drives some of you so crazy it sure as hell seems like you’re rooting for Hurts to fail. 

I did want to address why Gannon would have Reddick drop into coverage rather than rush the passer. In non-contact work there's just no point to rushing the passer. Reddick may be asked to drop into coverage a few times this season - zone blitz stuff. Might as well work on it now, before the pads go on.

I just saw the new cheer squad was announced.  You can tell these chicks are from Philly.

Does not drive anyone crazy.  He is a troll who make outlandish takes and then runs and hides behind the ignore feature when he is wrong.

He ran his mouth all week leading up to the wild card game about how stupid we would all look when Hurts balls out, then put me on ignore at half time because he could not take the heat of his hot takes.

It's a simple thing. Seumalo, IF HEALTHY, is a better guard than anyone on the team not named Dickerson. 

I don't disagree. But I'd also push him a little since he's switching sides.

He's played right guard before, but yeah, he's been on the shelf a long time and they have to see what he's got left.

Good thing the Bucs practiced hard.

Injuries happen.  Limiting practice is not doing anything but hurting the team come week 1.

I don't see the harm in seeing what Dillard can do at that spot.  I wouldn't expect much, but with Seumalo's consistent injury concerns, they may as well kick those tires rather than have him ride the pine as a backup LT.

Ha. I just don’t get why you care so much about some rando on the internet

I've seen people argue that the only realistic opportunity Minshew gets is if Hurts misses 4-5 weeks. 

I've seen people argue that the only way we can truly tell what NS is if Hurts goes down and we see Minshew.

but I've never seen "I hope they suck"

everyone in here hopes Hurts grows 5 inches, finds a stronger arm at the thrift store, reads a defense like Brady and becomes a better Pat Mahomes...but....... most of us know thats not possible. 

People are pretty defensive on facbeook if you question and/or criticize Hurts. They'll call you a fake fan for not supporting the team, say you don't know football, either subtly or flat out call you racist, or list the many of the excuses like it being his first full year with a 2nd year coach

Injuries can happen from not enough practice

He's got the movement talent and athleticism for it, but LB coverage is a bit unique in that it requires much more than athleticism.  He's been pretty bad in coverage so far since he's so raw as a defender.  Michael Kendricks is a better athlete than his brother, but was worse in coverage because he was stiff and undisciplined.  Kendricks probably would have been an incredible situational edge rusher like Reddick, but was never used like that.  Taylor seems so reminiscent of Kendricks to me.

Kendricks was a fierce and relentless pass rusher.  Another player who was used wrong his entire tenure here.  He should have been an attack LB only. Let him crash the line and make plays behind the LOS. One of my favorite players from that era.  Yea they should have drafted Bobby Wagner but Kendricks had an elite skill set that wasn’t used right.

Hated that pick

turner from nevada was the one to get

Turner is going to be an enormous mismatch especially against the Eagles LB/safeties.  

Remember the bashing of the Dickerson pick?

 He made an entire season w/o a significant injury, which is his case is an anomaly, if he can do that for 2 more years, then it was was a good pick.

Correct.  He could have just as easily got hurt in pre season, week 1, or working out on his own in the off season.

People dont bet around here. they use technicalities, run their mouth or make one sided bets that no one would take. 

You have bailed on more bets than anyone.   Tuesday comes to mind, you said "bet I wont be on here after 5 PM, you were on twice"  Wish I had taken that bet.

That is why I was sure to clarify and screen shot the bet we made so there is no issues.

That's interesting. If he decides he wants to come back to the NFL after graduating, would the Commanders own his rights?

I bet Hurts has a combined TD total of 41.  Running, Passing and receiving.  

I would take the opposite of that bet.

I bet he doesn't have a combined 41 TDs.

Hurts had 16 passing TDs and 10 rushing TDs for a total of 26 TDs.

You are talking a more than 50% increase in TD production. Unlikely. Ridiculous. Preposterous.

You said nothing of a condition of your bet like playing all 17 games. Maybe he does. Maybe he gets injured or benched.

So, what do you want to bet? A round of beers?

good grief
