  • Perfect weekend for me. I got to make my long time soul mate my wife officially. And I got a eagles win today. Life is good. 

  • Listen up blog.  Enough. These 2 ass clowns are suspended for 2 weeks.  They've both had warnings to quit the personal attacks.  There's a line between trash talk and just abusing other posters a

Grilled a nice flank steak last night after 36 hours in red wine marinade.  Smoke was hickory with little time to absorb because flank cooks so quickly.  Tonight I grilled wings.  Mesquite. Giant here in the mid state has had a family pack of wings on sale for $1.99 a pound.  Can’t remember the last time I could get wings that cheap.  Used a chili powder based rub and my sauces as dippin’ sauces.  The Parmesan Garlic went best with the rub, which had a bit of a bite to it from the cayenne. 

Need your address. Stopping by shortly before the leftovers are all gone.

I can bring a nice Homemade gespacho but only for trading purposes... :P

Holy cow, that long ago? I never tailgate, but my father and I were kind of forced to go to one that night to socialize with family members who were doing a tailgate. I hated it. It was the only time I drove to an Eagles game in the past twenty years

Oh, and definitely not 2006. That was TO’s return, the Lito Sheppard int return game.

You have a Scary memory Franklin....:whistle:

That is not a statistic. It is an incident and the claim is not that the play is without risk. Football is inherently risky. We could compare the number of players injured in TD celebrations to the number of QBs injured on sneaks. The main injury to QBs is the shoulder : https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5825334/  

Getting sacked and over-throwing, like a baseball pitcher, is what happens to them the most in terms of health risk.  Running QBs are not the most injured: https://www.filmstudybaltimore.com/new-study-quarterbacks-that-run-most-are-not-injured-most/

Great.  How many of the QBs in those statistical analyses run to contact the way Hurts does?  If the hit he took against the Lions had happened post-Tua, Hurts probably misses a game in the concussion protocol

All it takes is one play for a QB to miss significant time; the QB playing the role of power RB absolutely increases the risk.

Gottlieb is a Fing moron.  So if I bump into a stranger in the grocery store, it's perfectly fine if I put my hands on them, extend my arms and push them down to the ground?  The dude is an NFL WR.  His job is to stop and adjust quickly.  The excuses are ridiculous.  

What about after he "didn’t” see him and pushed him. He clearly saw him on the ground with the equipment. Or did he close his eyes for that part too? Wouldn’t he offer to help him up if it was an accident?

And back to the original point, a QB sneak is not a significantly dangerous play. Tua was injured both times while in the pocket. You've moved the goal posts by expanding the point to include Hurts's running too much in which he is taking too many hits. No argument there.

They better play this game tonight. Starting around 6:30 should give them 3 hours of little to no rain.

Mahomes was injured on a QB sneak.  I know... I remembered something again.  But tell me how many times a QB was injured handing the ball to a RB at the goal line?

 

But it isn't about an acute injury from the sneak.  For me it's about the total accumulation of hits his body is taking.  

By contrast, Brady was hardly ever touched... so much so that he was actually upset about the way he was sacked the other day by Jarrett.  

There is no data on what happens to a QB who takes this many hits in a season.  We know that a RB who hits 300 or 350 carries the effective drops off rapidly.  No QB has ever carried as much as Hurts current rate.  He's going to blow away the previous record.. by over 50 carries I think.

Still and all, go ahead Jalen. Break the records. Beat the stats. Prove the Doubters wrong On the Field.

He's not a QB destined for 15 yrs under center. Just my opinion, So go 200%. Give it your best shot.

However, let him play his game his way. Seems to have a handle on it so far...

We all benefit short term because he's Electric and currently quite cheap. Hard to Defend, growing before our eyes, recognized League -Wide  as a Real Threat. Roll, brother, we like watching you.

Standing by, enjoying the Ride...

3 hours.  That’ll get them to the 7th inning.  

Enough time for Wheeler to not have to have any delays and play 7 innings without disruption. Then anyone but Brodgon to finish up the game. 

Slowly getting healthier. Kinda weird Scott isn't on here at all.

Elliott is a Right Ankle injury.  

I guess for the others, they haven't figured out which leg is injured.

The LINC is going to be on fire on Sunday Night. I expect to see an A performance. MNF vs. Vikings was on a A- based on the TV viewing.

Yeah, I read your dreck. Usually skip it though.

I will respond to you just this once, for fun.

Attack me and call me "Genius" in a disparaging way instead of supplying info to correct what you think is an inaccurate  reference from @FranklinFldEBUpper.....You didn't seem to be concerned with His info...

probably the most informed and prepared Individual to be found anywhere around here.

Your diaper is showing, pull your lady Yoga pants back up.

Cheers. :Eagle_smiley:

Nothing is ever going to beat Anthony Harris showing up on the injury report last year with "hands/groin".
