Shouldn't it be noted that they don't have talent because Chip traded it away?
Cue Dega.....

FUCK YOU NO
89 goes in the Hall as a Panther or not at all. I don't care who I have to go get to broker the peace between Getts and Smitty, I'll do it.
Exactly my same thoughts. Probably a little smoke on what really happened in that meeting, but I don't doubt he wants to meet with players
e: STL sent in the proposal for the riverfront stadium today. But STL has had so much rain that site might get flooded in the next few days
Don't feel like digging my post up, but I felt Luck was out for the season once they announced the injury.
Them not doing so (putting him on IR) was just a smokescreen.

Tannehill's gonna do what LeBron can't and leave Miami to bring a championship to Cleveland.
I'm sure Miller's gonna break the rushing record too and be a star for the Cowboys.

I mean, kind of? Gaine was under Ireland but Ireland's last draft was 2013. When Hickey and Tannenbaum rolled into town they tore down a lot of what the old regime did, especially the big free agent signings (Wallace, Ellerbee, Wheeler, etc.). Only a few good Ireland picks like Jones, Pouncey, and Miller are still around.
Lack of consistency leads to a big muddled mess of a roster but it's hard to settle for mediocrity for too long. Hard to say who's at fault sometimes other than ownership.
I know you did. As much as I dislike the Colts I was worried they would rush him back and after reading up on that injury it could have been a big damn distater if they did.
Yes, yes that should be noted.

It's a great game. I absolutely loved it, but I also really liked 3 and like Future said, it's pretty much the same game.
I'm hyped for Primal too
Pervert.
I'm wary because WiLD (that Michel Ancel game) looks like it's doing everything Far Cry: Primal wants to do better
You whut mate?

I didn't think players were associated with a particular team for the NFL hall of fame.

Chip has the password to all the smoothie machines. Eagles are fucked.

Season coming full circle. We always have some rando at Qb start the last game vs the steelers.
Austin Davis will get the start though if Johnson dosent play

I bet you Manziel got caught drinking again and rather than air out Haslam's guy for the third time in a season they concocted this "concussion" business.

I wouldn't rule any tomfoolery out. I'm sure we'll hear about it, if more is going on. Does seem kinda odd.
He could be really hurt though, and durability becomes a question
I think considering Chips actions towards players, I think it may be wise in this circumstance to get a pulse of the locker room.

That argument falls apart when you see Riley Cooper on the team.

Good Guy Kirk making/selling these for charity
Put rando at QB? This should be fun!

On December 30th, 2012 ESPN Stats and Info posted that the Dallas Cowboys were 136-136 in wins/losses going back to 1997. In 2013, they went 8-8. In 2014, they went 12-4. They currently stand at 4-11. If they lose this weekend, they will maintain their perfect .500 record in the regular season since 1997.
Even after breaking free of the 3 straight years of averageness, 2 years later they still can't escape 8-8

Kirk needs to chill. He's starting to act like a wannabe RGIII.

Lane Johnson:
"I don't think everyone was onboard and headed in the same direction. I want to see a guy who really cares about his players and isn't so set in his ways so we can all go in the same direction.
People felt more comfortable talking to position coaches. I could personally talk to Chip, he was unapproachable sometimes. Several players didn't think Chip Kelly was approachable.
I liked Chip. I had no personal problem with Chip. He drafted me, I made great strides under him here. I think there was tension in the front office and anytime you have that going on up there, it's never good."

I feel like we are going to get a flood of awesome Saban-esque stories this off-season.
Chip gutted the 10-6 team that got him the praise he clearly didn't deserve... If DJax was that horrible, release him without smearing the guy. Yet... He rewards Cooper with a contract extension. Eagles fans got everything they deserved in Chip Kelly.
What has he done?

They're not. People getting worked up over nothing, haha.
I'm from the UK. I've never been to Philadelphia or seen an NFL game in my life. I know I don't really have a place to be critical of the home town fans and media at all because I'm just an outsider. I was never really into soccer - I find professional football such a toxic thing. But with the Eagles and the NFL, I've slowly developed a major fucking attachment to this team ever since Super Bowl 39 - the first NFL game I ever watched.
I love that the home town fans are passionate as fuck. It's great that they sell out the Linc every single home game. I don't mind when the fans boo the players when they are playing like shit - if you're all paid professionals, you shouldn't be making basic execution errors or dropping passes all over the field or going three-and-out in three or four consecutive drives. I like the fact that even though our record doesn't really warrant it, the Eagles are one of the most publicised and talked about teams - they're always a storyline team.
I do think there's a huge amount of pressure put on the team and the coach because of this. It's obvious Chip was under extra scrutiny in the media and by the fans than he probably would've been with another team with the same circumstances. I'm one for not making rash decisions as I think you can do just as much harm calling for a coach's head after one bad season than you can do good by firing him. And definitely don't listen to the fans on everything - we booed McNabb getting drafted, after all.
I just wonder if the Philly media and the fan's expectations and long, long wait for a championship isn't contributing to the mess we're in now. I get that firing Kelly can be more than justified on a number of grounds and you have to trust Lurie's judgement as he is best placed of anyone to make the call for the team's future, but man... what kind of expectations are there going to be on whoever takes the job now? And if they struggle next year, are they going to be dumped too?
Cool. Actually staying in Buckhead. These sound great. Thanks dude!
Why is Cooper on the team again?
KJR or ESPN? I can't stand Chuck from 10-12 on KJR and most of the guys on ESPN like Jim Moore.
He led his team out of a shit division after everyone wrote them off. And he gave Skins fans something to cheer for and distract them from all the Dan Snyder shit that went this offseason, so it's understandable. The issue is if this is a Foles situation and he regresses, or if he's truly becoming a good QB
From listening to Chris Cooley's weekly film reviews. I'm inclined to believe that Kirk can be this good on a consistent basis. Especially now that we have a legit GM.

I just think he's leaning into this you like that thing a little too hard. I'm happy he has found some success though, I hope he keeps it up.
