It's my second favorite next to "Next year's QB class is better"

I just love watching people stumble through it "This QB is pretty good but he's only great because of his supporting cast and his coaching AKA all the things needed for a team to win"

 

Perhaps. Like I said, its about preference and I don't think there is a massive gap at all between the two. The Eagles rightfully don't need to do much on the line. Cox/Jernigan are locked up long term. Chris Long is signed next year for relatively cheap. Brandon Graham will get a new deal in the offseason and Derek Barnett will enter year two of his rookie deal and is cost controlled for four more seasons and will likely slide into a full time role with Vinny Curry likely being a cap casualty.

I'm excited about the Eagles DL and Secondary going into next year. If there is a spot they need to address, it's linebacker. Mychal Kendricks is good but Nigel Bradham is a free agent (I'm sure they'll resign him) and Jordan Hicks is great when he can play, which isn't very often. They'll need to do something there.

Super Bowl will probably expose their weakness at LB and that should lean Howie into fixing it.

 

THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE YEAR

For real though, next year's defensive line class is gonna be lit.

 

Go Pats.

That is all.

 

McCown to QB Coach.

 

He might still be the starting QB in 2018.

 

The jets might have to start Bryce petty if they want to suck enough for a good qb

 

Conceivably.

 

Some guy on the radio asked if Tomlin should be in the hot seat for not having a super appearance in the last 5 (or whatever) Years....

What a privileged mindset.

 

Is @Randall Mentzos alive?

 

He's actually been typing this entire time.

 

This is a REALLY long thread so I'll just post the first tweet

 

Wow, did defilippo and Flores cancel then? That sucks

Good luck to them tho

 

Where is the same heat on Sean Payton tho? Hmmmm

Losing to the best coach every year is a ridiculous standard to have in general other than the obvious.

My friend was at the jags game and there were several yinz showing their true "feelings" about him. I would've tried to get them kicked out.

 

@Randall Mentzos

 

This is definitely the criminal part of that

Thats 3+ minutes of game time wasted because of a pass attempt...on top of another minute of game time from snaps too early

 

I’m not gonna be involved for a couple months guys. Really really upset about this loss. Somehow sadder now than I was last night.

 

These kinds of comments are silly. 13 years is a long time. This is the difference between me being in middle school and me pretty solidly being an adult. I’d be thrilled if I were an Eagles fan.

Just because [insert team here] has a longer futility streak doesn’t mean that the first one isn’t also a long time.

 

He apparently met keim last summer on the beach and keim was impressed by it? Weird story but cool.

 

of course its silly. I am salty, what can I say.

 

goodnight, sweet prince

 

Well, some of us have 20+ QBs in that time, rather than going from Peyton to Luck with just one Painter/Orlovsky in between.

 

I've said it all year. Fire Hackett.

Hopefully Marrone and Coughlin aren't all talk with their tough guy bravado.
