July 24, 20205 yr HATCHETWOUND SIGHTING Quote I hate to say it, but I think @Westbrook36 predicted this Quote It’s great that a national TV audience was exposed to the greatness of Wentz tonight. MVP is his to lose at this point, AMIRITE? Washington football team really looked great to start the game. At one point, up 10-3, at about midfield 3rd and 1, I thought they could put a stranglehold on the game. Gruden is afraid of success for some reason. Birds sweep the season series....normalcy restored to the NFC East. Wentz occupying space in all of your heads. That was from 10/23/2017 in this excellent thread I LOVE that an eagles fan that constantly trolled them called this during our superbowl run
July 24, 20205 yr I haven't really been following much sports news since there hasn't been much throughout the lockdown, and when I saw people start referring to the "Washington Football Team" on here I thought it was just a reference to a random tweet they had put out or something. I didn't realize that was how they are actually referring to themselves this year... That's just.... wow...

July 24, 20205 yr I know fans always joke around about "trap games," or the team laying an egg because they overlook seemingly easy games. But how can anyone take the Foreskins seriously at this point? All I want to do is point and laugh, and I'm sure the Eagles feel the same way. Week 1! Trap game!!
July 24, 20205 yr I have found no end of joy from this whole "Washington Football Team" name. 2 minutes ago, hputenis said: how can anyone take the Foreskins seriously at this point?

The unis look good, but in the morning you look yourself in the mirror and say, "I'm living my dream, playing for the football team!"
July 25, 20205 yr The R-words episode was excellent. The promo's leading up to it had RG3 in it, but then they made the switch to Cousins. Because they produce the show on such a short production cycle, they were able to correct it.
July 25, 20205 yr To hear tell from certain quarters, ‘’Washington’’ is almost just as offensive as ‘’Redskins’’ was.
July 27, 20205 yr How about the Buffalo Bills? I mean, they named their team after a fictional serial killer.

Their unis and their stadium both look like a McDonald's Big Mac that has globs of ketchup and mustard spilling over the edges. Hideous. And I'm color deficient.

July 28, 20205 yr But but but.... Howie is a genius!!! Quote The Eagles’ salary cap woes have reached worrisome levels. Unless the team gets really creative next offseason. Philadelphia is facing a salary cap debt of $71.53 million in 2021, per OverTheCap, and that figure is the absolute worst in the league out of all 32 teams. The Eagles were originally on the hook for $50 million but their debt sky-rocketed following the NFL and NFLPA reaching a historic revenue agreement to deal with safety protocols stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. The Eagles will be facing some tough decisions (and grim realities) in constructing what they hope is a Super Bowl roster next season as they attempt to maneuver the tight salary cap. The biggest elephant in the room is Zach Ertz who has been lobbying for a new deal. His preference is to remain in Philly and retire in midnight green. The Pro Bowl tight end has a potential opt-out in 2021 ($7.76 dead cap) as 2022 and 2023 are dummy years in his contract that automatically void. Ertz hasn’t come out and said he wants to be the highest-paid tight end in the NFL but that’s the assumption. San Francisco’s George Kittle will set the market and the Eagles will have to decide whether to invest a fortune in Ertz or trade him. Remember, Dallas Goedert is coming off his rookie deal after the 2021 season and require a lucrative extension.

Supposedly we restructured his contract into a one year deal, but we never saw the #'s. But I SUSPECT that it was converted into bonus money so a portion would be guaranteed. If true, then we could have cut him with 0 consequence prior to the restructure. The only question is... with opt-out, does the contract toll? If not, then he is on the roster next year with his 2020 contract.
