for all the hand wringing its still 7-7

also a big fan! and: FLY EAGLES FLY!!!

McDermott is from the Reid tree too... just the defensive side.

Those interviews are still comedy gold...

No one will argue he is some top 5 stud, agreed. But the big knock on Jones was turnovers. He was a turnover machine most of the time before Daboll (sound familiar?) Last year Jones had a 67% completion rate, 3:1 TD to INT ratio (15 to 5), had 4th Q comebacks, and 5 game winning drives. (87.7 rate) The weapons on the Giants stunk. Before and during the season Evan Engram (TE) was gone and Kadarious Toney got dealt to KC (where he started flashing his ability). Jones also showed an excellent ability to be a dual threat QB. Does anyone realize Jones ran for 708 yards and 7 TD!?!? (5.9 Average) Wow. To put that in perspective Allen had 762/ 7TD / 6.1 Avg. DJ had 6 fumbles/ JA had 13 (includes lost and recovered) Jones is clearly the product of good coaching (Dabs and Kafka), but he took to it, and had some pretty crappy coaching before. He will look better and the offense will open up in a second year of install, and once they get some weapons there. Not sure Richie James and Darius Slayton is much of an improvement over Zay Jones and Robert Foster.

If Tampa ends up in a total rebuild, they have some nice OL to look at in a trade. Yeah that would mean cap manipulation, but a potential place to make some gestures.

Intriguing after the Senior Bowl. I read about him the other day per the write up on NFL.com when catching up with the Senior Bowl activities: John Michael Schmitz, C, Minnesota Schmitz is probably the most consistent player here. I'm not sure he had a bad rep in practice. He is strong, powerful and tough. He's interviewed really well during his meetings with teams this week. I've been told his character is off the charts. I don't see him being available beyond Day 2 of the draft. Schmitz is a member of the American team, which is loaded with future NFL starters on the offensive line, including Florida OG O'Cyrus Torrence and TCU OG Steve Avila, who showed he can all play all three spots on the interior during practice this week. From nfl.com https://www.nfl.com/news/2023-senior-bowl-daniel-jeremiah-s-top-10-nfl-draft-winners-from-week-of-practic (article covers many Senior Bowl Practice stand outs) I've been wanting a particular C for two years now (Humphrey and Linderbaum) as a succession plan at C who could play G until a decision on Morse is/was made, and learn about calling out protections while Morse is still here. Nothing against Morse, but he is slightly above replacement level and now has 6+ documented concussions. Wanted to get Allen his stud 'career' C. Like Hull for Kelly, or Dawson for Big Ben. This guy fits the idea I have been wanting those two years. Will be looking for more about him.

I agree, not sure where I said that.

100% how I feel too. Love and respect those guys for coming in and turning around a broken organization. They made winning and playoff experiences expected again. Am thrilled they found us a real franchise QB, AND locked him up long term. Made a few good trades. That is a lot to accomplish. But not sure how much further they can go. I'll leave it at that.

If Eli Apple goes to the Jets they could have the APPLE SAUCE secondary!

they were acting like it

I hear that Kelce guy is pretty good. May want to cover him.

Easy to score on?

It was Kellen Moore. I had a pop-up sports app show 'Cowboys Coach leaves team' Typical 'hot journalism' title. Still, losing Moore (OC) is a shot to go with the 6 other assistants out.

You can't do this with every player, every game....

I think the Cowboy job just opened up?? Good hire fore the Dolphins. Pretty sure he know how to use Bradly Chubb.

Oh Angelo is so over the top it made it amusing. I thought of it as a circus and Cataldy was the clown, and Al was the ringleader 🤣 2000-2010 Eskin was brilliant..... I understand why people could hate him, but he is a needed Archie Bunker to obnoxious Philadelphia fans Didinger is really knowledgeable, so is Jody McDonald. Also liked Mike Missanelli. Never listened to the Fanatic (97.5). I moved out of PA just before WIP went FM.

No, he is a terrible pass blocker with a bad back.

Let's not get carried away. I think the Eagles and 49ers are better rosters top to bottom, than either of these teams. These teams have better top end QB play IMO

I was there 2000-2010 - the Reid/ McNabb years. WIP was still on 610 AM. Started with Cataldi/ Al Morganti and Rhea, peak Howard Eskin in the afternoon, and Big Daddy Graham (RIP) at night. All sorts of personalities then. Since I wasn't a fan or a hater (except the Flyers) of Philadelphia's teams it was fascinating. Was there for almost all of the McNabb/ Reid era, the Phillies rise and parade, Allen Iverson running out of gas on the Blue Route and his finals and the end of the Lindros saga. Good times.

LOL some angry closet 49er fans in here

I used to live in West Philadelphia (Parkside), then moved on up to Horsham. WIP should be in rare form too 🤣 Where are you?

rookie QBS were 0-4 all time in Conference Championship games prior to today

some fans never ever learn, franchises too
