I saw one last year in Florida and wanted to try it. Unfortunately my wife had it a bunch growing up and hated it. I got vetoed.

Tbh not missing out on much. But if i had to choose over those 5 that’s the route I’d go.

Quick rundown:

Poster ranted that Jones is trash and we shouldn’t lose to him.

I pointed out his actual stats which were pretty good this year, and not terribly far off Hurts stats. But obviously Hurts had superior overall stats, especially TDs.

Coal miner Mike can’t figure out that 3700 passing yards (Hurts) to Jones 3200 yards isn’t 700 difference, it’s only 500 (this is where I said that’s JSB style math).

Some posters can’t comprehend that I’ve said Hurts was obviously better, but Jones had good numbers too this year.

Jsb then involved you, for unknown reasons

wow...

I’d say they’d be in on the Hopkins trade but i really don’t think they’d want to invest in a 31 year old WR who wants a big new contract and capital to get him. I guess maybe if it’s the 32nd pick it’s not as daunting to give up that pick for him. But still got to pay him. Frankly MVS was overpaid by them. I thought he was inconsistent with rodgers. While mahomes is better i don’t think one HOF Qb to another was gonna make him more consistent.

I actually like Toney when he plays. The problem is that dude is never healthy. Ever. It feels like he plays two games and then he’s hurt for like 2-3 months. I liked moore coming out. But the fact the chiefs had injuries at the position all year and he’s been non existent feels like he just might not be what they thought. I kind of see the chiefs signing someone like landry or chark in FA. 

If you’re the chiefs…is there a reason to even invest in a WR upgrade? I guess if Kelce ever went down they might be in big trouble, but Mahomes gives them such a high floor. With WR contracts becoming insane, I think you just keep drafting them and hope you hit on one

He stated a fact? Why not discuss the actual stats instead of your eagles biased feelings? A few other posters have been able to do so

😄ohhhh ok, so we're just in here stating random facts with absolutely no narrative behind them whatsoever.

What about your "fact" that they are pretty close, statistically?  Is that still a fact??

 

You guys are the ones with biased feelings and the fact that youre so oblivious to it is pathetic.  You guys cant help yourselves with Hurts. 

Edit:

Fact: Jones lost 1 more fumble than Hurts this season and is therefore the better QB

Just don't.

Yup.  Would require a rule change.  And what would they say... "Only one player is permitted to push a player in a scrum"?  How do you enforce that?  In a scrum, how do you know how is pushing whom?  Could be pushing defender, or ball carrier?  Or pushing another blocker... 

 

I hate that they are using Hurts as a battering ram... but I've said my piece on it.   It is effective with him.  The fact that the coaches went back to that well with Minshew is my bigger concern.  It's like they have forgotten that other plays are allowed in those short yardage situations.

There is an interesting historical point about quarterback sneaks. Perhaps the most famous sneak in history is Bart Starr’s game winner in the closing seconds of the Ice Bowl against the Cowboys in the 1967 NFL Championship Game. When you watch the replay, you see Green Bay running back Chuck Mercein trailing Starr into the end zone and raising his hands over his head as though he’s signaling touchdown. There are still photos of that exact moment and that is precisely what it looks like — Mercein signaling the game winning score. But afterwards, and many times throughout the rest of his life, Mercein explained that he wasn’t signaling like that. What he was actually doing was raising his arms over his head to demonstrate that he wasn’t pushing Starr from behind. That would have been illegal. It’s the exact opposite of what we see today.

It’s really strange how this has suddenly become acceptable when it never was before. And I’m kinda uncomfortable with the fact that the Eagles seem to be spearheading this revolution. It’s working and I can’t complain too much, but I wish this wasn’t happening.

We were comparing Hurts to Jones. Jones having less ints with more attempts isn’t random at all.

And the stats don’t lie, they were close in a lot of categories.

Pizza Hut stuffed crust is the food of Gods. I’m amazed we mortals were able to even try it.

 

(Of course, real pizza is far better than the chains, but man…that stuffed crust is next level)

No doubt.  

Come to think of it I don't remember seeing pizza parlors, restaurants, etc offering any stuff crust options.

I always go to a place called Gino and Joe's.  They got many options but I get the chicken parm pizza and chicken riggie pizza.  Both amazing.

Has nothing to do with being a squirter.  Jones has not been garbage, he has been good, but not on Hurts level.

Why is that so hard to understand ??

Because that wasnt TorontoEagles point maybe?

Its really hard to understand peoples points when they actually dont make that point at all and say something else entirely.

Maybe you should DM Toronto Eagle so that you can better-clarify his point

He said Jones has not been garbage, and backed it up with stats.

Pretty easy to understand.

I didn't leave it out, @Connecticut Eagle didn't mention him.  Carson was great for a long time elsewhere before he ever got here.  But it was 'Buddy's players' by and large that Bud Carson used.  And after 1991... it really started to crumble on him for a myriad of reasons, mostly the loss of talent.  First the death of Jerome Brown, then Reggie leaving via free agency, followed by the rest of them.  

He still had them at in the top 10 to 12 range for 3 of the 4 seasons he was the coordinator.  Losing Brown, White and then Joyner definitely lead to the decline.

You really struggle with using your brain. A poster claimed Jones was awful. I compared Jones stats to Hurts (Hurts having superior stats) to show Jones isn’t awful at all.

And here goes Toronto Eagle trying to paper-over his dumbarse post and pretend that we all just didn't understand what he was trying to say.

Ok maybe insult me again and people will forget that stupid post you made

Hurts crushes him in TDs, but jones has better completion percentage, less INTs, and very comparable rushing and passing yardage numbers. 

Good point - not like those are that important anyway
