and you're proud of this?
enlighten me.
Gannon seems to be public enemy #1 in Philly. His defense sucked (after being very good to great all year) and he immediately got out of dodge.
How many defenses look good vs Mahomes lol? Always need to kick the guy that leaves the fold...
I agree with you. I'm just saying that is how a lot of them think.
In 9 games vs top 10 QBs over two years his defense gave up 33 PPG. If you remove the outlier vs Kirk Cousins in prime time, that goes up to 38 PPG. Eagles fans know the story. It had been a 2 year trend throughout his tenure. This season the Eagles didn’t play many top 10 QBs. Dak is the best QB they played in the 2nd half and they gave up 40 to him. Not one stop in the 2nd half. He was a deer in headlights and didn’t alter much of anything in response to getting driven on.How many defenses look good vs Mahomes lol?

Not disagreeing with this at all and I remember you saying something similar before he even left, so you aren't trashing him after he left. BUT, still a piece of shit move by Gardner-Johnson IMO. I hate that kind of player. Perhaps look within and find some accountability because it's on you too or just STFU. It's not like Gannon was out there covering guys himself.In 9 games vs top 10 QBs over two years his defense gave up 33 PPG.

Why would Hurts say anything similar? Steichen did a great job. The Eagles likely score if they get the ball back. I would have a problem with it if Gannon was still his coach. He’s not. The player spoke his mind. We don’t even know if CJGJ is even still going to be an Eagle. Truth be told, he fired off the tweet and then thought like you’re thinking and he deleted it. When you’re high profile though people grab screen shots and it becomes forever. If anything, this is a minor transgression. However, complete malpractice for a defensive coordinator in a Super Bowl is forever.Not disagreeing with this at all and I remember you saying something similar before he even left, so you aren't trashing him after he left.

Without looking for quotes I can guarantee Hurts didn't say something similar about your OC. Highlights the type of player you want vs the type you don't want
My comment has nothing to do with the DC.Why would Hurts say anything similar? Steichen did a great job. The Eagles likely score if they get the ball back.

I know. You’re critical of a player who would still be pissed off and react the way he did and then minutes later say “nah, shouldn’t do this” and then deleted the tweet.My comment has nothing to do with the DC.
minutes later...Agent calls and says jackass what are you doing? Delete that tweetI know. You’re critical of a player who would still be pissed off and react the way he did and then minutes later say “nah, shouldn’t do this” and then deleted the tweet.
I don’t see a difference. That’s why these guys pay agents.minutes later...Agent calls and says jackass what are you doing? Delete that tweet
His Defense has sucked since he got here.Gannon seems to be public enemy #1 in Philly. His defense sucked (after being very good to great all year) and he immediately got out of dodge.
That’s on over statement. His defense was really solid and they were protected by the schedule. But there were signs for us who watched all 20 of their games. Games like the Redskins second game where they couldn’t get off the field. The 2nd Cowboys game they gave up 40 but most of us were focused on Minshew and the turnovers. The truth is that Gannon was a deer in headlights vs top QBs. He played bend don’t break but he didn’t have change ups off of it to get off the field. Mediocre QBs and mediocre offenses tend to make a mistake when forced to go 75 yards in 10-12 plays. But great QBs will eat you up if you continue to give them stops, quick outs, and slants.His Defense has sucked since he got here.
Additionally, it’s not coincidence that two games that need to be called out were the 2nd time playing the opponent. That’s a layer of Gannon getting out coached but also fair to note in the 2nd game the opponent came with a better more efficient QB than the one they came with in the first. Two layers of Gannon 1) struggles against better QBs 2) can’t adjustThat’s on over statement. His defense was really solid and they were protected by the schedule.

Haha! Had nothing to do with it. Even at 14-3 Gannon was a popular whipping boy on talk radio and on Eagles Twitter. He was polarizing. People would go to either extreme and the middle was true. He did a lot of good things but when they played the best QBs his stuff was out matched and he didn’t have change ups off of his base stuff.How many Eagles fans would be singing a different tune had he stayed though?
