Is kinda fucked.

We gotta figure out what to do with Bradford. After looking like poop for 75% of the year, he starts to play "well"...and gets hurt again, as is his custom throughout his 5 years in the league. If he misses time with this injury, you know it's a set back in his development. His $13,000,000 contract is up at the end of the year.

Sanchez- the O operates a little more efficiently with Sanchez and in the past has been more exciting to watch than Bradford for whatever that's worth. Of course he has a tendency to make godawful decisions at the worst possible times. He's under contract making high-end back up money.

So what the hell do you do? Commit to the inconsistent "I'm hurt dude"? Try to get another evaluative year from him by franchising him at $20+million? Let him walk? Then what? Donovan McNabbs not coming through that door. Hell Jeff Garcia ain't comin thru either!


My guess: there's no longterm starter market for Bradford. We should be able to get him back cheap, for a little more than Sanchez money and have the two of them compete for the starter job.

And that'll be your 2016 Philadelphia Eagles: trying do decide if Sam "I'm hurt dude" Bradford or Mark "butt fumble" Sanchez is the best bet for our franchise. Lord, hear our prayer

1)Scrap the season- draft the best available player
2)Let Bradford walk and deal for Kap

* Chip may help Kap get back to his better days when he was a Niner. Just my.02:noidea:

Bradford is your QB next year. We'll probably draft one but Bradford is our best option.

I'd see what the Packers want for Brett Hundley ... a player I wanted us to draft last year.

AS bad as Bradford is, Kelly is no better. This presents a particularly bad situation for the future of this team.

If we sign Bradford to a long-term contract, the Sixers will have a better shot at a title than the Eagles.

I'd give the Patriots whatever they wanted for Jimmy Garoppolo. That kids gonna be good when he gets his shot....Bradford was missing guys wide open before he got hurt....Dude sucks.

I'd do that too Rey, but the Pack are grooming him to replace Rogers in a few years, ala Rogers/Favre. He's pretty much untouchable unless they get at least 1 or 2 #1s, or close to that.

I think the same can be said for Garoppolo ... maybe even moreso as Brady is like 7 or 8 years older than Rodgers; but yeah, I'd be just fine with either of those two.

Bradford looks like he's going to have to do a one year prove it deal or retire. No one is trading us a good QB.

I'd sooner bring in Kaepernick. He looked promising when he had a real coach coaching him....He has a cannon for an arm, good wheels, he is tough, and he is durable....plus he would cost half what Bradford does.

I haven't seen much in Bradford to make me think he's anything more than a .500 type QB. To me he's a high paid Sanchez with much less mobility. No way in hell would I sign him to long term starter money.

Kap is our best bet. Won't have to give anything up for him as he will end up being a FA. He fits this system. You also draft a QB this year for the future and if Kap sucks here. We already know Bradford does so Kap will not be any worse.

The QB of our future better not be on the team right now or our future is going to be terrible.

Prove it deal? LMAO. He has proven he is an injury-prone SCRUB.

Could be worse the Eagles could have Peyton "5/20 35yds 0 TDs 4 INTs 0.1 QBR!" Manning quarterbacking the team

I would have liked to see Bradford play through that injury. Other qbs have, Matt Stafford comes to mind.

He looked the best he has in any 1st quarter yesterday. He made a play out side the pocket for a touchdown early in the game. Every week he does something else to show that's he's a bit more recovered from that injury and a bit more comfortable in the offense.

I hope he's not out long. Watching a game from the sideline might even help him ala Nick Foles in 2013.

CK brought in a journeyman, mediocre QB this year hoping he'd make a difference. He's not as good, or ever will be as good as Eli or Romo. His stats are similar to Cousins this year except Cousins seems to be improving as the year goes on, Bradford hasn't. Having the 3rd/4th best QB in a mediocre division won't get it done. WR's look pretty mediocre too. The offensive line needs a makeover next year, McCoy has better stats than Murray this year, Peters has had a great career but although older OL seem to still play well enough, they start getting hurt more often, he'll be 34 next year. Not someone you can pencil in the lineup and forget anymore at tackle or guard. The defense is ranked 18th in total yards allowed. There are some good athletes there but overall pretty mediocre. ST's are meh.

This is why you're 4-5. Bradford deserves some blame, but CK deserves more.
