    I mean it's not hard to figure out that the 49ers defense is like 100x better than Seattle's, about time all those 1st round D-lineman paid off

    RW's state line is just bonkers. Incredible that he's still completely underrated. Most pundits probably don't even include him in their top 5

    The rivalry is back on

    State line rankings:

    1) California/Oregon line
    2) Montana/Wyoming line
    3) Vermont/NH line
    4) RW’s state line
    5) Oregon/Washington line

    Last) Florida/Georgia line

    Oh yeah it's not better than Cali/Oregon but it's better than #5. Would put it above NH/VT line at minimum

    I swear the Dolphins have to have the stupidest fanbase

    there is a contingent that believes that Flores going for 2 at the end of the game yesterday (TO WIN THE GAME) is evidence of tanking lol

    How a defense goes from league worst to league best

    He was clearly a pick for the future, which is fine I guess, but there were more pressing concerns on the team’s roster than drafting a WR that you hope contributes in the future.

    I also don’t necessarily buy the whole “Well, if DeSean were healthy...” argument because we’ve been watching a handful rookie WRs contribute to their teams right away and JJAW, when given the opportunity, has accounted for just two receptions and 14 yards. That he can’t get on the field ahead of Mack Hollins, who missed all of 2018 and has recently come out and stated he prefers playing special teams to offense, is concerning.

    Next year is going to be a big year for him w Agholor likely on the outs (at least I pray he will be), but there’s no guarantee he’ll be given a starting job in 11 personnel.

    I wouldn’t be against the Eagles throwing another day two pick at the position in 2020, especially because Alshon will be 30 and DJax will be 33 or 34, plus Hollins will be on the last year of his contract.

    my point was that JJAW cannot do what Desean can do. The Eagles have Alshon and Agholor (for better or worse) for all the short and intermediate stuff, which is the same type of player that JJAW is. If Desean was out there, the Eagles passing attack would look a hell of a lot better thus less complaints about JJAW.

    I agree I would want him playing over that pud Mack Hollins too.

    Mack Hollins doesn't know how to catch a pass without pushing the god damn defender away.

    I agree with you. I just would have rather seen the Eagles emphasize more speed and route running prowess in a WR given DJax’s injury history as opposed to drafting a big physical receiver when we already have Alshon. Now, Alshon has his own injury history, so it’s fair to point there as a reason for drafting JJAW, but they’ve got two very capable tight ends in Ertz and Goedert too. It’s just a lot of big physical but slow players with this offense.

    As an Eagles fan it def hurts seeing McLaurin kill it with a noodle throwing to him

  21. JuJu is the best. The guy has only been targeted 38 times this season and most of our passing yards are coming from RBs now. But you can tell he is out there having a blast and super supportive of his teammates.
