People in philly are mind blowing. Walked into my office today and you would have thought the Eagles just lost their first 4 games. They played with out two of their WR's, their starting O-line, & their starting D line. There is work to do but lets not panic.
If your referring to the incredible shrinking man or the Chronic Knee Turncoat ... Get used to playing without 2 of your receivers.Don't worry no one will be able to pass on them once Asomugha and Samuel are in .... Oh wait ... They were?
Settle down there, fella. It was a preseason game. If this happens in the regular season, then you can get your gloat jollies all you want.
If it's not to early to declare them "The Dream Team"!!!! It's definitely not to early to enjoy them getting there collective azzes kicked.
So who is your team and why?
My team is the only team in the same division that is never over hyped yet has won a SuperBowl in recent years ... Can you guess who that is ?

You really enjoy preseason wins and loses?
No ... But I do enjoy seeing loudmouths get the azzes handed to them anytime
What's the azzes and who handed it to whom?

What does a football game have to do with "the azzes?" You are a tricky one with your crazy riddles.

Pretty sure they still didn't have a super bowl then.

You do realize that the last 5 regular season games that the Eagles have played the Giants, the Eagles have won, right? You really shouldn't be talking smack on the Eagles after losing 5 straight.

Oh, sorry....looks like 6 straight.

 
I've got a relevant topic. Who steps in if Maclin can't go? Do they keep Avant in the slot? Is it Cooper?
I would think Cooper. Avant is an excellent slot receiver and it would lessen both positions if he was made the wide out with Cooper the slot. Avant may be in on 2WR sets though. Cooper would definantly be the wide out in 3WR sets though.
 
I've got a relevant topic. Who steps in if Maclin can't go? Do they keep Avant in the slot? Is it Cooper?
I think it's a safe bet he's a go....although he does need to get in playing shape so I see where you are going with this now. I'd probably throw Riley Coopers name in there and keep Avant in the slot.

I meant from a fantasy perspective. Who picks up the slack?

Then I would think Avant. As the more experienced WR on the team, they would rely on him more. Cooper might have larger plays though since they'd be more downfield but Avant would have Steve Smith 09 potential if he were the #2 IMO.

Not sure why this is surprising. He was viewed by draftniks as a complete backup, special teamer from jump. This is classic Andy seeing something in a linebacker that NO ONE else does. :shrug: I would trade two or three of our other offseason moves for Kirk Morrison.
I don't think I nee to voice my opinion on the past few drafts and those selections lol i was pretty vocal about how assy mcgee most of those pics were with the reaching and what not. Its showing right now too at LB....and we are two weeks away from week 1.
I'm not very worried about safety. Granted Nate Allen looked absolutely lost last night for some reason (playing SS instead of FS maybe). I just think these things are fixable. Once this team gels, watch out.
The looking lost thing I hope can be fixed, it should be. New system, and such, new position even, sure he got a bit mixed up. You DON'T expect to see that out of a 2nd year player though. What worries me is the slowness he was showing. This is a reason I don't like the fact that did not resign Q. Made all the sense in the world to resign. Sure, its preseason, yadda yadda but i posted this over at BGN too. It is time to worry. If this was a 5-11 type team then you would go through your normal moans & groans but they arent that team. Its fine to question anything & everything after that performance. From past draft choices ( project players high, reaches for no reason, etc ) to current coaches ( not sold on Juan at DC at all . Like i said, the team is 2 weeks from week 1 & still have major issues at a very CENTRAL POINT OF THE DEF....the MLB spot.edoit : Avant would be the #2 i believe with Cooper being the 3 but they would switch up plays so much it won't matter

Just a FYI so no one is shocked, the Eagles will be bidding on a certain high-profile QB in the supplemental draft. I'm not talking a throw-away flyer pick either, they are going to seriously be bidding for him. :unsure:

It's blind bidding though right? You can't "up the ante", just name your round, correct? :popcorn:

Correct.
Really? Does that mean that can't stand Young so far? Because they aren't getting rid of Kafka. Unless they try to stash Pryor on the practice squad (extremely unlikely).

He'll never talk to me about cuts (that'd be unfair to all involved), but I get the feeling from conversations they are VERY un-impressed with Young thus far.

I'm sure the dream team comment didn't help. He doesn't seem the same as the Vick situation. VY still seems like a knucklehead and hasn't hit rock bottom like Vick. I don't think he would come in if Vick went down anyway. Kafka has looked way better. If they cut young and make Kafka the #2, I'd be all for it. I wonder how high a pick they are talking here. Round 3 seems like the Eagles style. Thats pretty high for a supplemental. I wonder if someone will go round 2 though.

We were at the workout, so I'm not shocked. But (having not seen the workout personally), I heard he looked like an awesome athlete...that can't play quarterback. If we do bid on him, I wonder if it'll be as a QB? :confused:

Been saying this for two weeks. Wouldn't surprise me if we cut Young, which sends a "message" to everyone about how nothing comes without commitment.
 
As much as I have a huge disdain for TP (yes I am a PSU fan, no, I am not jaded that he went to OSU I just think he's a punk) I think the Eagles may take him as a wideout or even TE? Vince Young is probably going backwards but I wouldn't think he'd be worse than Pryor, the kid isn't a great passer at all (granted, he may have improved but I doubt it).

I don't see the eagles making a big play for Pryor unless they projected him as a QB. He'd be a project for sure. He'd be the QB3 for the next 2 years in the hopes that by that time if Vick is winding down, Pryor is ready to step in. Two things it does say though if they go hard after Pryor is that Kafka is much better than we thought and Young still doesn't get it.

:loco: of course if it means VY gets cut I'm all for it. :bye: Pretty disappointed by how disinterested he looked on the sidelines. Granted it was pre-season but still. Just seems like his attitude is "I'll stick around here for a year than get paid by someone next season"

I don't like Young even a little bit. He just seems like a guy in turmoil while clinging to this attitude that he is still the man. I think he has further to fall before he gets it. Perhaps getting cut will wake him up finally.

an overrated player with a crap attitude. I still dont understand why they brought him in. The sooner he gets cut the better, Kafka is 100 times better already
 
Good ole Al Davis. 3rd rounder, lol. :lmao:
From what I was told, the Eagles bid a 4th. Probably was best they didn't get him, but a late 4th is about right IMO.
So they were pretty in on him. 4th is high for a supplemental. Do we still see VY move on?
Yeah, I think so. Obviously Pryor was to be one of Andy's famous 'projects' anyway. IIRC, Young was set to make nice coin if he makes the team.

If you had to guess, 1st cut or 2nd cut?

Probably second, just in case something happens to Kafka. They are absolutely sky-high on him right now. Again, I was not told this outright, but I'm just reading between the lines on conversations.

Obviously but your insight is great.
 
What I am hoping for tonight:

-Vick plays sharper. He doesn't have to have a great night, just show better reads and make

better decisions.

-The front seven stops the run. If the Eagles show no ability to stop the run, then teams are

going to run the ball on them all season long. The Eagles having great corners will be irrelevent

if we can't stop the run.

-The LB's make at least a few plays. This is a young group, but they have to start making some

plays or it is going to be a long season.

This and I want to see some quality RT play from someone.

I think those are all reasonable. We should see a crisper game tonight. Last weeks game had to wake a few guys up and I'm sure Andy and the coaches have used that as an excuse to ride them all week in practice. Matthews needs to show something tonight. Still don't understand why Cheney isn't the Mike with Matthews the Will.
 
I think it's a given Vick will play better. I want to see much better paly from the defense, especially stopping the run. Is Hillis playing tonight? Should be a very good test for the defense all around. I think Cleveland's O is going to be very good.

Given the weather, I'd add 'no significant injuries playing on a sloppy field'.
