Well....I was digging the idea of catching the Iggs in Jax this year. But I kind of knew that was coming.....

Still have Tampa. I am hoping the Nashville game is still during warm season so I can catch it.
I swore I saw the Bucs game numerous times as being a home game. This could be even better, even if it does end up being week 2 and 98000 degrees out.
Well Foles ain't going anywhere which makes me believe Wentz may not be ready or the Eagles are doing the right thing by taking their sweet time bringing him back.
Report: Foles, Eagles agree on revised 1-year deal with mutual 2019 option
Yup. This^^Wentz' injury is a one year injury ... it would be a mistake imo to rush him back. I think there is a high possibility that Wentz is held out the first 4 weeks of the season. Yes he is making good progress, but with a backup like Foles you can wait for Wentz to be 100% as opposed to having him get back on the field too early. I think this reworking of the contract serves a double purpose ... it puts more money into Foles' pocket as a reward for his job helping us get a ring, but it also means that he will likely start a few games this season.

That said, if Howie gets a great deal, Foles could still get traded.
While nothing is impossible I'd be very surprised if Foles gets moved. With less than a week before the draft it would make no sense to make this move if there were any chance Foles was being traded. The Eagles are built to win now with either Wentz or Foles at the helm ... I think it would take an astronomical offer for Foles in order for the Eagles to trade him; a trade offer that I don't see forthcoming at this point.
I am going to the Dallas game in Dallas in December with a friend who loves the Cowboys.
I keep telling him that I think they are going to suck, and we should hold off on buying tix, but he bought them now so I am going to overpay...
I'm not predicting another SB, but I would be surprised if this team didn't make the playoffs. The Eagles look stacked right now. The draft class looks solid again, and they even have some intriguing undrafted free agents at positions like safety and receiver.
Oh, and they got this guy!
I know he is young and so very anxious to get out there and lead this team again, go back after the MVP that he was robbed of, and the SB victory he leads stolen from him.... BUT... if he rushes it and his mind is too far ahead of his body... he is going to regret getting hurt again and how much permanent damage and limitations it might do. I know it's hard to be competitively driven and be patient. I doubt many people are capable of both. That's why the coach has to make the hard call and force him to sit "IF" needed. The season will not be decided by the start of the season. It's GREAT that he looks so on target and has maintained the exercise and muscle memory of his throwing techniques. Just please please don't rush it back and get hurt!!!
