It is....but so is the talent among the players.

Sure but the coaching change was the main issue. I mean look how the defense is playing with constant injuries…that is coaching

He's smacking you around with facts, too vs. your baseless opinions.

FYI, it's easy to ignore if tagged. Just need a little self control.

very true.

he is actually acting like some mediocre 3rd corner is a major loss......the Eagles are easily one of the healthiest teams in the NFL- have had amazing injury luck- and look to be falling apart lately.

if they lose to the Cardinals it will be rock bottom for them- not that I expect them too- but if they played the Rams right now I would pick the Rams.

Just business, he and Payton dont get along.

 

[WiggyRuss]

5' 10 35 year old QB that needs to free-lance to be effective

not much value.

once these small QB's start to lose athleticism- its not good. Brees was always the exception.

At least Jalen Hurts is around 6' (listed at 6' 1"- ha). But I would not pay a small QB - unless they were extremely accurate and had abig arm.

he is 35- has lost athleticism- has an ego....not like he is going to be there long term anyway at his age and skill set.

I think he will be just fine

 

[WiggyRuss]

I really don’t give a fuck. What makes me different from Wiggy is that I know what I don’t know. I’m not well versed on the depth of the Browns secondary. I made no comparison in the post you quoted. I merely called out (among other poorly constructed statements about my team’s injuries and personnel) his comment that a team losing their slot corner is no big deal just because he didn’t know how well respected the player is around the league at his position. He has no idea the difference in slot production from the opponent when he is in vs when he is out of the Eagles lineup. He doesn’t know anything about the depth behind Maddox on the roster either. He just declared the loss no big deal. I picked the most absurd thing he said and used that to remind him that he’s a fraud and a poser and he hasn’t earned the right to talk football with me. You should consider yourself blessed that I still grant you the honor.

lol--- wow you are really invoking Crying Ryan Leaf here. lol

it was simple to see the Eagles have basically had the best health in the league. If on IR- your biggest loss is a nobody 3rd corner- you are probably having the best injury luck in the NFL.

 

[WiggyRuss]

if anyone thinks losing your 3rd corner is a "big deal" in a league where tons and tons of teams are missing actual impact players- you are definitely lucky as fuck.....

omg.....if the Browns had a bunch of scrubs- and Newsome as the only IR guys (and Newsome is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better than Maddox)- - or anyteam had anything similar- it would be one of the luckiest injury seasons in years.

The Eagles for all intents and purposes are at full strength while tons of other teams are missing ACTUAL key guys.

 

[WiggyRuss]

not sure there will be a significant market for him--- but I dont really see how they cut him either since the cap hit is going to be astronomical if they cut him or trade him.

 

[WiggyRuss]

That's fair, but missing 6 games is still a lot. Plus the beyond awful DTs and backups.

If you want to tell me schwartz does better (perhaps a lot better) with both groups you'd get no disagreement from me. also hoping he is not lured as a HC.....though possible doesn't even want it.

for some reason they just did not value DT last year- a bunch of young guys- really put no assets in it

this year they of course go get Tomlinson, Harris and Hurst as veterans----- and then Zadarious and Okoronkwo at end.

Zadarious looks to be peaking at the right time- he has really stepped up since Okoronkwo has been hurt. This is prob the freshest Smith has been in years this late in the season.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Browns better not think tomorrow is a sure-thing though. The Jets can run the ball- and there are some guys missing on the line and in that LB core.

If the Browns avoid the pick-sixes, kick off return TD's, etc. that have plagued them at points this year--- if they just dont make BIG mistakes they will be fine.

Flacco isnt gonna be perfect- hes prob. throwing a pic or two- but just limit the damage and dont put the defense in too many bad spots and Browns should be okay.

That said- Semian is going to be carted off the field long before he gets to 49 attempts like he did last week.

@thunderc

You watching any of the Holiday Bowl? Looks like Riley has Miller Moss running the Baker Mayfield version of his offense.

He’s going to be cut, he’s made enough money

No Im not but that makes sense.

 

[trojanfan12]

No Im not but that makes sense.

He looks good running it. 4 TD passes in the 1st half.

 

[trojanfan12]

And then he throws a pick. lol

Be interesting to see who the qb is next year. People saying Will Howard from Kstate but that would be a big step down.
