Let's say they trade Cousins, it will cost them what $90 million in dead cap money and the pick they are likely to lose for tampering? Penix better win a couple Super Bowls to justify that for a player that never sees the field.

I'm not an Eagles fan but Howie is one of if not the top GM in football.

Assuming the Falcons lose next years first round pick for what seems like obvious tampering to get Cousins they basically will have spent two straight first round picks on QB. As others stated Penix will likely be 27 by the time he gets his chance (barring cousins injury). Arthur Blank makes...

I like the pick. Watch a lot of Penn State games and this kid can play. You don't wear the #11 as a LB in Happy Valley unless you are special. Given the injuries at the position best case scenario he allows us to move on from Chubb after this season and re-sign Phillips if he comes back fully...

I'd like to see them focus the first two picks on the interior DL and OL. Graham Barton and JPJ are both of interest as they can play C or G. DT whoever they have rated as best available when they pick Murphy, Newton? The mocks make it seem like a better chance of someone who can contribute at...

Sometimes even a loss can be a good weekend. My sons team played the #3 ranked team in the country according to the Soccer Ranking App this past weekend. They have 9 D1 commits and beat the Unions U17 team that just won the GA cup in a showcase a few months ago. Lost 3-1 but it was a very...

I missed this originally and just saw a reply to it. School soccer for the most part is not highly regraded for just this reason, it is often coached by those with no background because they have the time required right after school or whatever. I know for a 5th grader not easy but tell her keep...

As DEADHEAD said the key is who played the ball first, the keeper just getting there isn't enough they have to make a play on the ball and have their hands on it. Honestly sounds like a bang-bang play that probably could have been called either way. Most refs will usually error on the side of...

I think the points @Chadstroma brought up are great ones and a lot depends on the personality of your son. Is he ok coming off the bench or does he want to be the star (and that isn't a bad thing, someone needs to be). My son figured out on his own that he would rather come off the bench and...

Hoping he doesn't get too full of himself. Saw video of him at the GA Cup after a game he was over by the fence and people were throwing him their phones so he could take selfies with them in the background. That is a lot for a 15 year old. There is also video of the Flamengo team interrupting...

Yes and it is now located directly at the Union's new training complex next to Subaru Park. The training fields are done, they were just starting the construction on the indoor field and whatever else is going to be in the fieldhouse when my sons team played against them in January. It is...

Some of the big universities have satellite campuses that have their own sports teams. For Example the University of Pittsburgh is of course the big D1 school but there is also Pitt -Johnstown, Pitt-Greensburg and a couple others. They are part of the overall school but have there own sports...

My son had his first official college visit on Tuesday. Smaller D3 school that is part of a bigger institution but he would be able to do all 4 years of his major there which is something he wants, Had a personal tour of the campus from the coach as well as a good conversation for about 45...

Still amazed how different things are on the west coast or maybe it is because you are in the Catholic school system if I remember correctly. No school sports back here on the east coast until usually 7th grade at the earliest.

Ding Ding Ding we have a winner. It is easy to say move on but we all know any fanbase would erupt if you jettisoned a QB who got you to the playoffs and had the team playing exciting football a good part of the year so you can draft Bo Nix and go 6-11 the next two season.
