You've had a great career Pouncey, but thank you for making this decision and recognizing it's over. Didn't need this dragging out another year.

End of an era. Might have to spend the rest of Feb & all of March watching highlight reels from the past couple decades lol.
I'm not pushing him out the door, but I'm also not banging the table for Ben to stay. Either way, whatever.

If Ben is going to retire, I hope he fakes it until the draft for the team so they can go in with a bit more mystery.

I don't think it was me. I never said much about Wentz.

I think Philly broke him. I don't think he ever approaches the potential Philly saw in him when they dumped Nick Foles for him.

I would have liked Winston last year and said so publicly. I would snag him this year as well if its possible. I doubt he is but one can hope.

I will miss Pouncey anchoring the line but those days are long gone. Glad he went out on his own terms.

Not so sure Ben retires yet. We shall see. He definitely was a problem but not the sole reason for their failures. Either way he is gonna eat a huge chuck of the cap. Perhaps he comes back at a reduced rate of maybe 2 mil. Add that to his guarantee he falls more in line with QB's in the middle tier. I have little faith in Mason and am not a fan of Haskins in 2021 This team has so many holes and little cap room it makes my head hurt.

It's always good to see these guys get down to a healthy weight post career. It's gotta be hard to change eating habits so drastically.

Faneca went through a similar transformation.

He lived near me when he was a Jet....good friends with my brother.....was shocked when I saw how much weight he lost....was tempted to try to push him over.....
