2025 Philadelphia Eagles - Join the meniscussion about Landon Dickerson (44 Viewers)

@Cowboysfan8 signed up and paid to be in Shark Pool Home League #4, and there are still 4 spots available.

For all the back and forth crap and smack that goes between you two fan bases, I'm absolutely :shuked: as to why not even one of you guys has stepped up, where it actually *counts* - money's on the line* - , and taken up the gauntlet to go toe-to-toe with him.

There's 4 spots available; that's more than enough room for a 3-on-1 , which from my personal brawling experience in your City of Brotherly something-other-than Love , you guys are proficient at ... or, cowboysfan08 could go find a tag-team partner from the Cowboys Thread and we could see who's what...

...years of smack between residents of the two Threads. The perfect opportunity presents itself to legitimize one's position.

Go getcha some, Philly!
Meh, did those leagues last year and am not a fan of them. Way too much hype for a $50 league on a bad platform lol

Hmm...

;)
yet you won't even join yourself for the same reason :lmao:

Far from it. :lmao:

I have legitimate reasons, as I detailed in the L4 Thread, concerning a commitment to a High-Stakes Investment partnership that involves more $ than most people, besides Chet, of course, make in a month. Maybe even a quarter.

I even began my post with 'Unfortunately', while you were dismissive.

...and despite the fact that I've clearly voiced my dipleasure with, and loudly complained about the Sleeper platform, AND I did crappy in the inaugural Footballguys Bowl last year, I'm not only jumping back in this year, but I'm competing in a Shark Pool Dedicated League, rather than vs a bunch of randos, which will be even more challenging, but allows me to participate, in the only way I am able to - a free League.

You, other hand, are just making excuse that flies in the face of the Philly mentality I became accustomed to while growing up, in college, and during my career - whatever happened to "any time, any place, anywhere?"

To your credit, you're a step ahead of the rest of the smack-talking cravens in here who continue to post right along, while conveniently disregarding the fact that I'm pointing out a golden opportunity for you all to legitimately validate your claim to supremacy, via putting your money where your mouth is.

So, you've got that going for you...

I don't know, maybe some of you are *just* Eagles fans, and not actual Philadelphians. That's would make more sense.

No self-respecting Philly guy I know (and I know plenty) would ever back down from an opportunity to show who's boss in a fair fight.

Do with it what you will...
TLDR.

Just find it funny you say you have "legitimate reasons" yet my reasons are basically the same, and you go off on some strange tangent.

Like you, I'm invested in far too many high stakes leagues. I no longer play leagues under 1k unless it's a league with friends and even then anything below 200 and it's simply taking up equal time/energy to a league with such little payouts and such a high rake. If you want to play in a high stakes league I'd be in right away. And since you're puffing your chest at your 'investment partnership' (lol), I assure you I'm more invested in this hobby than you are ;)

:rolleyes:
Saw your cop out and your pot stirring posts over there.
This isn't fighting Drago in Russia, it's a $50 league with a $100 rake.
Sounds like Cowboys fans, like their owner, would just prefer to overpay for things.

Toughest fan base lol
 
just watched the Eagles-Bengals game. some comments about backup and roster bubble guys i didn't see mentioned yet on the offense:

  • Some kid named Smith we drafted to replace Covey on kick return. He looks shifty, I like him.
  • Darius Cooper. He won't be a starter anytime soon on this roster (or ever, or i don't even know if he's entrenched into the 54 yet), but I like what I'm seeing as a fill to be the third and fourth WR option. He plays hard. Check out his TD catch and the breakdown of that particular route at the 7 minute mark.
  • Johnny Wilson looking like the Johnny Wilson we hoped for. Can he do that in real games? Had more than a few nice route and catches over the top. At his size he could be a great goal line option.
  • AJ Dillon looks great and with Shipley looking like the same guy from last season I'm very comfortable with this backfield. The talk of his thighs and comparisons to Saquon's thighs will dominate broadcasts in games he plays a major role.

One of the drawbacks of starters not playing is trying to gauge how you #5 WR would do against a teams #1 or #2 CB.
 
McKee could be a starter in the league.

Yeah. What do they do with him after this year? He's in the 3rd of a 4 year contract. I guess they move him in the offseason?
They keep him unless a team comes in offering a 1st. You need a good back up with your starter in this league. If he wants to stay he could take less. Given hurts playing style always a case he gets injured and out a couple games. He’s stayed healthy but the older you get more at risk you are
 
Mike Mayock was a guest on Rich Eisen's show a few days ago and said Jihad Campbell is the future of the off-ball LB position. Mayock said Campbell can play the run or drop into coverage. He can blitz up the middle or line up on the edge and rush. Tough, versatile and athletic
 
Interesting tidbit: WSH currently has 8 Eagles castoffs on their roster.

LB Duke Riley
TE Zach Ertz
QB Marcus Mariota
CB Kevon Seymour
S Jeremy Reaves
OG Julian Good-Jones
OT Tyre Phillips
TE Tyree Jackson
 
Uh oh. Landon Dickerson carted off at the open practice tonight.
I just google searched Landon Dickerson update- there’s nothing new.

But I was struck by how many poorly-written AI articles there are being generated now. Holy crap, it’s bad. I even got a link to the Hindustan Times 😂
This is just sports. Now imagine real news. It's a nightmare.
 
MRI to be done today. Holding out hope it’s not too serious. 🙏

The idea of replacing Becton and Landon with Steen and Toth/Pryor does not exactly make me warm and tingly. Plus, he’s our best back-up C. No offense to Jurgens, but he might even be our best C.

Too many uncrustables. I can’t blame him- those things are addictive.

Yeah I’m just preparing for the worst here - and if it’s a guy to replace him my guess is it’ll be Matt Pryor
 
Shefter reporting it's a meniscus injury.

Jon Ritchie on the radio this morning speculated that's what he thought it was because he did the same thing as Dickerson and tore his meniscus. He said he had a clean-up surgery and didn't miss a game.
 
Per Scheftar

Eagles Pro-Bowl guard Landon Dickerson is thought to have suffered a meniscus injury to his right knee, per sources. Dickerson is getting additional options to determine the next course of action and how long he might be sidelined.
 
If it can be trimmed/cleaned-up, it’s 4-6 weeks.

If it needs to be repaired, it’s 4-6 months.

Even if it only needs a trim, doing the repair is better for the long-term (less chance of chronic issues and arthritis.)

See: Embiid, Joel.

To be fair Embiid has had other issues contributing that for yrs. Not eating healthy, poor workout routine etc.

Hes also had a bunch of work done onthe knees. Not good
 
Minor surgery for Landon week to week should be ready for week 1
RapSheet reporting this so could be good info. Let's hope so.


Yeah, this is what Jon Ritchie said this morning when he had his, the team had a bye week and he played the following week so he didn't miss a game. I'd guess he'll be shut down for the rest of preseason and get back to work the week before the season starts.
 
Just realized I could book the STM "Gift Pick-Up Experience" for the same night I'll be across the lot for the NIN concert so booked a slot. :headbang:
(Spoiler alert: its a couple of backpacks, one clear for stadium entry)
Then booked spots at the Green Legion Tailgate at Xfinity for the home opener since it's going to be crazy trying to get into the lots.
(We'll take the Broad Street line in as long as Septa doesn't shut down)
:tfp:

It's almost time, season can't get here soon enough! 🦅
