RichieNextel305 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I have never in all of my life of watching the NFL seen a team completely collapse the way the Eagles did after that 10-1 start. Just a fucking disaster. Now reports are out that Jason Kelce is retiring. He’s been the heart and soul of that team for as long as I could remember. Times are definitely changing in Philly. Going to be weird not having him there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be weird not having him there. Epic fall off. Kelce probably knows there are rough days ahead and he won't see the promise land again in Philly and doesn't want to go try for it somewhere else. Guy was an awesome player, role model, spokesman; gunna be tough to replace him. Philly was horrible last night. I'm assuming more sweeping changes are on the way.

Br4d Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Eagles made a mistake with the huge QB contract. They jumped early and they bought high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I'm probably in the minority of people who really don't dislike the Cowboys. The Eagles on the other hand can fuck right off. A collapse of epic proportions that was glorious to watch. I'm happy for Mayfield, and low key want him to win it all, but I'm expecting a 2011 rematch with San Francisco and Baltimore. Now hopefully that dick Mahomes gets knocked out and next and I really don't care who wins. Although, I don't necessarily want Buffalo to win it all, either.

LindG1000 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I'd guess that the demise of the Eagles is premature. Losing AJ Brown would hurt any team, and that playcalling was awful. They're gonna have big cap space to fix the secondary and replace Kelce, among others. I'm not buying their demise just yet. Fire that OC, get healthy, get right, move on.

No playoff wins in like 8 years. Constantly squashed in the first round. Always backing into the playoffs. But people point to his "non losing seasons " record. Guy continually finishes just above .500 and misses the playoffs. But it's deemed winning. The guy is a hack and was gifted a franchise QB and a Superbowl caliber team when Cowher left. Won a SB with that team, then road the wave of mediocrity. I can't stand his word salad post game interviews and his habitual lack of discipline of every problem child he makes.

This is what always happens to teams when they win a Super Bowl or two and have to pay the star QB and others. Pete Carroll same thing in Seattle. Mike McCarthy in Green Bay. Tom Coughlin in NY. It's just killer having to pay for the ring you just won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difference being these coaches didn't hold the job for 18 years like Tomlin has. They were more successful in less time and built their winning teams. They all came from or have a coaching tree. Tomlin hand picks his staff. Anyone that he has brought in, has gone on to do nothing. Anywhere. We're not talking a 2-3 year overstay after an actual winning season. It's going on 15 years since he actually won. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-Dreamer Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Kirk Cousins managed to get paid again, 4 years 180 million, 100 guaranteed. this time with the Falcons and considering that contract I am not all that sad to see him go.

The NFL keeps doing this but the only guy who fits the definition is Mahomes and he's having to restructure every year so they can field a full team.

This off-season feels like the Vikings are trying to turn back time by signing Defense and letting go Cousins, after they thought he was the missing piece in 2017. Funny enough they made the Championship game twice with the post-Culpepper QB-carousel, but only won one Playoff game with Kirk. I wouldn't have minded him staying, but only at discount, he's 36 now, not that many years left for him anyway and the roster as it was with him wasn't making deep runs any time soon. Gotta say though, it's hilarious how suddenly everyone and their uncle wants to pretend like they didn't shittalk Cousins during his whole time as a Viking. Suddenly he's good enough to turn the Falcons into contenders. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzy Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 My Raiders re-signed Jacobs! That's good! I thought he was a goner. I guess these guys really WANT to play for Antonio Pierce! Crosby stayed Devonte stayed and now Jacobs. Oh please draft or sign a good QB.... Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Heaven Posted March 15 Author Share Posted March 15 1 hour ago, LindG1000 said: He'll be fine, Josh Palmer is good, Quentin Johnson as much as he sucked last year, he was still a rookie. They are probably going to draft either Nabers, Odunze or Bowers. Maybe they can re-sign Mike Williams, he had to be released to get under the cap, they were $25 million over. Keenan Allen will be 32, and he's been hurt a lot the last couple of years so getting a 4th for him isnt so bad. Draft is pretty deep this year.

Keenan Allen will be 32, and he's been hurt a lot the last couple of years so getting a 4th for him isnt so bad. Draft is pretty deep this year. I don't share your optimism, my man. Allen may be older and a little injury-nagged, but there's not a more reliable receiver in the league. Going to QJ or Palmer, or even one of the draft eligibles - that's a downgrade no matter how you look at it. Williams, I can take or leave. He's all big plays, and I can see Palmer stepping into that spot just fine, but it ain't open unless you have threats elsewhere. Maybe Odunze or Nabers will step right in and make sense, but as of right now, it's Quentin Dropston, Josh Palmer who can't seem to be able to stay on the damn field, Derius Davis (low key, I'm excited about him, actually, but it takes time), swapping Gerald Everett for Will Dissly, swapping Ekeler for Gus the Bus? This ain't pretty. Combine that with the fact that Harbaugh likes to build from the trenches out and you're left wondering here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Br4d Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Harbaugh is more RB focused than WR focused. I expect the Chargers to be looking for a workhorse back with some speed, maybe two of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
