2025 Philadelphia Eagles - Franchise record for games played is about to get further out of reach for Lane Johnson. (39 Viewers)

Great had D. Smith on the bench as he's been unplayable with how poor they have been passing
Of course they do something today and next week if I play him again, they will suck passing again

So tired of this BS, fantasy football just is not as much fun as it once was
 
It was good seeing Carson again. My first opinion on seeing him wasn't dislike....it was kind of fondness for the guy. Jalen is the man; the Prince who Was Promised. But Carson could have been....hell, he probably SHOULD have been..
Carson had the talent and to be here for the next 10-15 yrs. Unfortunately didn’t go the way anyone wanted outside the SB. Some of it was on him and some of it was totally out of his control. It seems everyone’s learned from it and Wentz has never shown any bad blood or disrespect for anyone here. Anyone who thinks we win our first SB without him either doesn’t know football or hustle delusional at this point. People have selective memory at times and forget just how bad Foles was prior to the playoffs after he replaced Wentz in LA after he got Hurt. There was players and staff concerned they’d be one and done in the playoffs amongst fans as well.
 
Brian Flores' defense in first 6 games: allowed the 2nd fewest pass yards per game (157.6), 4th fewest pass TDs per game (1.0), and the 12th lowest passer rating (88.9).

“Running QB” Jalen Hurts today:

19/23, 326 passing yards, 3 TD, perfect 158.3 passer rating, 5 20+ yd completions (37, 79, 28, 21, 26)

-10 rushing yards, 1 Tush Push, 0 Tush Push TDs.
Helluva RB we’ve got.
I wonder what Quammy and Bladerunner think about that game?

Kind of the same. Just the Canyon sized gaps of both of these guys coachability, mental toughness and leadership are very very wide.

Thanks for 2017 though Carson! I got a Nick Foles tat to always remember that season.

The WIP host that famously said, right after Carson tore his acl, that he’d get a Nick Foles tattoo on his back if Foles led the eagles to a Super Bowl win.

Oh haha, I did not know that.

My artist kind of blew up so my $200 tat in 2018 she now charges $350/hr $500 min

This is fine

But the idea for #1 on the other leg is percolating...

That's easily my least favorite part with a player on the bench like that.

I think we can all agree that benching a player when they go off sucks, amirite?

It's the only way they'll learn to play better though for your fantasy team.

I think it’s more likely this doesn’t go well (suffers another injury, not able to meaningfully contribute (or worse, looks washed)), but if it’s going to happen now is the time. He’ll have almost 3 weeks to get ready for GB, with the bye coming up.

The one thing I don’t doubt is the positive impact his presence will have in the locker room.
 
3 months at home everyday with the wife is all it took for BG to say, "F this, I'm going back to work."
He’s been staying busy on the PHLY podcast. And, hopefully, working out regularly.

I could see a big impact getting him in on early downs. Jalyx has been good, but he gets washed too easy on run downs.
 
It's been so long since we didn't have a good to great offensive line that I think we're (fans, coaches, players) having a hard time coming to terms with that maybe being a reality. We are continuing to drop in the PFF Oline rankings, trending toward falling out of the Top 10. I think the Dickerson, Jurgens, and Lane health issues are going to be all year, nagging things, Mailata seems to just be having a down/regression year, and Steen is barely average.

The last time we didn't have a top 10 line Linsanity was running wild, 50 Shades of Grey was a best seller, and Gangnam Style was inescapable (2012, 19th.)

Last week may have been a wakeup call that they have to call plays with the Oline they have, not the one they think they SHOULD have. Run game is still a struggle, there's still decent to great pass protection, and the back-up center can't snap consistently in shotgun, so they seemed to finally stop being stubborn and deal with the reality of the skill sets and level of play that are happening on the field, and not what they have on paper. More passes, less inside runs, snapping from under center, etc.

Not really talked about, because he's been so good at working miracles for so long, but from the last 3 drafts and UDFA signings of offensive lineman all we have to show for it is an average Tyler Steen. Playing, or needing to play, guys like Pryor and Toth is not a great look for Stoutland. Sure, he gets some credit for Becton and didn't have control over him leaving, but at the same time the guy did have a first-round pedigree. The last "diamond in the rough" he worked his magic on was Mailata, who is now in his 8th season at this point.

I don't think we should be coming for the guy with pitchforks or anything, but he's got a chunk of responsibility for some of the things people are frustrated about. And it's a lot of pressure if your GM the last 3 years has used the "deprioritize Oline in the draft and assume our Stoutland cheat code will turn lead into gold" strategy.

Next year I would bet everything they grab at least 2 premier OL players in the top 3 rounds. They need a Tackle and guard with talent.

I was gonna post something similar- they have to draft more OL. Going back to 2023, Howie has been waiting until late rounds to grab depth/development.

But, you can’t fault him too much- he’s grabbed some blue-chip Defensive players. JC, then Q and Coop, then Campbell. That’s a great track record.

And, given Stout’s track record and reputation, Howie’s maybe been a little too confident he could turn chicken scat into chicken salad. This year, it’s definitely time to restock the Oline with some generational guys. RT for sure, and a decent swing G.

ETA: activate Kendall this weekend, get him some snaps, and continue to run more plays under Center. And more PA
