I learned a long time ago to be honest about your team, if they look like sheet, acknowledge it. You see, if they are in fact one and done, you're gonna feel miserable, me, I'll be laughing the homers who feel miserable, I have no great expectations from this team for several reasons.

But it’s also because JJ has been so successful. Any given Sunday and every team is beatable. Its what the NFL wants and what makes it so great. Dropped the ball on some guys for sure, yet here we are with the best tandem of receivers in Eagles history today. We gotta let that go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s where I’m at too. I’ll be shocked if they win a playoff game. They are bad right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A.J. Brown breaks the franchise record for most receive information yard! Easily the best receiver tandem in franchise history. After all of the year's watching this team having Devonta and AJ makes me smile the most right up there with 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying your team is going to be one and done is a future statement, it is not the same as saying they played like crap (they didnt play well). It reminds me of the saying " I would rather have loved and lost than never loved at all". Your philosophy is the opposite of that in the football context. I feel like I get much more enjoyment out of my Eagles fandom doing it my way. I am not miserable at all either way. You don't want to risk anything (your choice) so you can MAYBE have the cookie of being able to laugh at people and say "look I was right"? Again, your choice but looks miserable to me.

ShutDownDB Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Some of you guys need to not be so glass half empty. Good lord they finished 14-3 with HFA. They didn't sneak into the playoffs with some improbable scenarios bouncing their way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manz2821 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 My biggest concern was the OLine. The giants had a unblocked free rusher it looked like on every possession wnd no adjustments were made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope Gannon is dissecting the tape of all the bad play by Prescott and building a game plan to force him into where he is struggling.

Gannon will hopefully dial up a blitz package for whoever we play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This line of thinking is why people fail. The most successful people I’ve ever been around believe they can do anything and expect the best. The people who consistently fail around me say stuff like if I do better they will expect me to do that all the time. You have a loser/failure mentality and that’s what "realist” really means.

My future statement is based on how they're currently playing, matter of fact, it's how they've played all year long. How many games have the offense stalled for entire halfs, like about 75% of the games, couple that with the inability to stop the run and it's not looking good, just being realistic, it you want me to get some pom poms and lead the cheer, that's a no can do. 4 minutes ago, MillerTime said: Lol no it’s not.

I am just giving you feedback, its your choice what you want to do with it. You don't have to get pom poms and be a cheerleader. I am suggesting you just play it "neutral". You already said you don't have expectations this season. That is neutral. Enjoy that, it'll keep you balanced one game at a time. You will find its nice way to enjoy watching. You might also find setting your expectations aside is a nice less stressful way to live in other areas if you couple it with a growth mindset. 🙂 When you say "you are watching a one and done team" that is not neutral. That is pom pom cheerleading in the opposite direction. Why bother? want a cookie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
