Yay second round pick

I wasn’t a huge Mac Jones fan when he came out. I didn’t love that class besides Trevor Lawrence. But if I was going to take a chance it would’ve been on either Lance or Wilson just because I thought they had a higher upside ceiling. Now, none of them have reached it, but I feel like Mac Jones is what he was going to be. A middle of the road starting quarterback that’s not good enough to get you where you want to go.

And when we look at how much Hurts as a lesser prospec has developed, and how QBs like Jones have not.  Striking

But does highlight how the NFL as a sport vastly overrates the QB position

Lol I actually forgot about that and was just happy Saints lost

 

Probably need 6 more wins to make the playoffs and 13 games left to get those 6 wins.  

The bears were up 28-7 and lost to a team that got 70 scored on them last week . 
 

lol 

The Bills are scary good, damn

Obvious sight adjust where the wr sat down

I agree, but these officials have no ability to make judgement calls.  So, the ball landing 20 yards away from anyone means grounding.

AJ Cole just punted 70 yards. Why can’t we have that ?

I wouldn’t call it overrated. Because if Jalen hurts didn’t play the way he did last year. The Eagles aren’t making it to that Super Bowl. It’s still the most important position.

The thing  is Jalen hurts you know what his work ethic is. He might never gotten to be a top five quarterback, but you knew he was going to maximize whatever talent he had because of his work ethic.

i look at Mac Jones, and say I don’t think he works as hard to get to where he wants to be. I think he rests on being a high draft pick and is super immature. I don’t think he has the drive and he lacks just elite talent. I think lance and Wilson have the arm talent but just aren’t mentally capable of figuring it out. I also think lance with injuries and Covid has been grossly hurt by lack of ability to play. He’s still likely a bust but that didn’t help him.

If this doesn’t sum up everything 

 

Jake Elliott might legitimately be the team MVP through 4 weeks.

Scenario:

Eagles make it to the SB against Chiefs/Bills/Dolphins. Hurts throws a momentum grabbing TD to AJ Brown to take the lead.  After XP, the Eagles are up 6.

The opposing team fields the kickoff with 60 seconds left and 1 TO.

Do the Eagles have a:

A. 0% chance of winning.
B. 0.5%
C. 1%
D. Defeat is so certain they credit the other team with 7 points and cut to the post game show.

The way they've played through 4?  Easily D

There’s no might about it bud. He’s been the team MVP no doubt so far.

The new GM & coach will be in a good situation

Anyone ever see the movie Memphis Belle? Very dramatized movie but the Captain is always serious, never cracks a smile while the rest of the crew is a bit looser.  At the end of the movie, after their successful 25th mission, he unloads with champagne and celebrates with the crew.

I like Hurts attitude towards winning, you can't question it. I do wish he'd loosen up and enjoy winning with his teammates though. Bro, you've got a $250 million contract, you're 4-0 coming off a SB. It's OK to crack a smile and have fun after a TD.

Jordan Mailata had his hands full today - I’m used to the odd speed rusher giving him a hard time along the outside shoulder but Chase Young was moving him along.

Lance also got caught in an office politics thing. His career is not all his fault, esp with someone known to be very raw coming out of College.Shanny has done him dirty, in some respects

And if that new GM and HC were to go QB WR 1 and 2 then they won’t last very long either.

Are people actually questioning if this is a playoff team?

Get a grip.  The chicken littling has gone too far.

Every seasons goal starts with making the playoffs first and foremost.  All other higher goals come after that one is met.
