*Official 2015 Philadelphia Eagles* - Winning when it doesnt count (2 Viewers)

[thayman]

It amazes me how Philly fans roasted Reid and McNabb on this board but Kelly a pass. You get what you deserve.

Meh. Reid couldn't get them over the hump, Kelly might not be the right pick but it was time for them to move on.

 

[GoBirds]

Bradford will be pricey for you guys, hopefully you guys can sign him since we t makes the division that much better. Overall I was pretty surprised how sloppy the Eagles played. There's lots of blame that can get put on the coaches but good god do those WRs drop a lot of passes.

How about that Murray xmas gift? It's unbelievable isn't it. Another drop by Barner as I'm typing.

I still think Kelly is in over his head but the amount of drops by receivers for you guys this year is nuts.

Will have to see, it's only 1 year. What about the defense though, could it be run any worse? I think step 1 is bringing in someone that can run a defense....I think there is talent there but wow they are brutal.

I think your DC decision will show you guys if Chip can do it or not. I've been of the opinion that his ego has had him picking coaches that aren't as sharp as him. If he doesn't adjust things are going to get a lot worse in Philadelphia before they get better. His GM moves look very Vinnie Cerrato esque so far.

I think coming into the league he didn't have the credibility to get much better than Davis, a Browns castoffs. While this season sucks he's had a couple good years too. He needs a guy with talent he can hand the D over to and focus on O and GM. I think we all hope he learns from the Murray deal. It crippled the Cowboys when Romo was gone but he crippled us worse (see that sweet fumble tonight) .

Will be interesting for sure but I think if he wants to stay in the NFL he can make it work.

 

[GoBirds]

So a loss next week and we could draft top 10? Are there QB'S this year worth going after?

Who can he get now? Trying to think of potential available DC's either former ones or hot names of def positional coaches coming up.

Get the #### out jerkoff.

Don't get mad at me because your coach traded away your best players for hot garbage. How much money does Philly have in rbs? Chip spending money on rbs like he's using Oregon Alumni money.

 

[Deamon]

So a loss next week and we could draft top 10? Are there QB'S this year worth going after?

If we resign/franchise Bradford, no way we take a QB top 10. We aren't great, but we are decent enough to be better with Bradford + Top 10 OL next year then with a QB that falls to around #10.

Just for discussion purposes though, Lynch and Goff are both likely gone top 5. Neither will slip to #10, and really we can't afford to lose picks to trade up. Only other QB in the even POTENTIAL top 15 discussion is Connor Cook, who I personally think would be a reach for us top 10, but there's still lots of time before the draft. Maybe we'll trade back to pick up that 2nd rounder back.

[babydemon90]

So, this loss probably gave us about 10 spots in draft picks. Probably for the best, we aren't a good team right now, like it or not. Last thing we need (assuming we keep Bradford) is a rookie QB - we need grunts to fill in the spots. OL, LB's, etc.. Need some low round guys to contribute.

Riley Cooper is gone, I think Celek also gone, Murray maybe a June 1 cut. We need to resign Cox and Bradford, just hope we have the cap to do it. F'n Murray - that cap hit is going to end up costing us big time.

With Murray if it saves $5 million just keep him. Maybe he will be a man and try to prepare this offseason.

Bradford hadn't played in years, to think he was going to step in and gel immediately is unrealistic but still disappointing it never really clicked. He made progress and he is about the same age as Cousins so if he wants to stay there could be good years ahead. You have to hope these young receivers can progress.

Didn't realize Cousins was so old/Bradford was so young.

Given their careers, it's crazy to think Bradford is only 9 months older then Cousins.

Looks like he played 5 years at MSU (1 year as a red shirt), then 1 as a backup (to hoyer) and then 3 as a starter. Drafted after that in 2012 at the age of 24.

 

[Insein]

Looking like a top 10 pick (probably around 9/10) if we lose to the Giants. Probably around 15/16 if we win.

Expect a full effort from the boys next week by Chip.

Who's giving Kelly a pass? We just know he'll be here next year so no need to have an aneurysm over it. This coaching staff needs severe changes.

Not really. Awful year to be top 10 for QBs.

 

[Insein]

Currently we're about 12th for the draft. Will depend a lot on this weeks games.

 

[Kwai Chang Caine]

I hope I'm wrong but I'm calling it now--Bradford is gonna leave. After everything we all went though debating on this board, the one thing I've come to believe is that he's a decent--possible very good QB. He's the least of our worries. I know he missed Ertz on that play but shizza happens.

But, no way in his right mind when he's going to command decent offers for teams better positioned then us, is he going to stay here for this Chip nonsense. I don't think he's sold. Would you be? An aging decrepit line. A defense continually torched. All the BS Chip imposes on his players. Kelly so far having proven that he can't evaluate offensive weapon talent properly. Bradford probably can't get out of here fast enough. He took a one year deal and bet on himself and won.

Now what...?

I dont recall you posting anything after Kelly inherited a 4-12 team and won 10 games two years in a row. Please use the offseason to work on your trolling. You're terrible at it.

I think you are overvaluing Bradford and what he has done this season. Nfl network was putting full blame on him after the game for all his misses on the clutch throws. He said he wants to stay, it could go either way. Always have the franchise tag if you have to but if he doesn't want to be here maybe we are forced to take a QB in draft.

Bradford has played great for the last 7 weeks. He is far and away the best available quarterback. With all the weaknesses on this team, they better wrap him up and not at QB to the list.

There's been talk of taking the cap hit to cut Murray which is an extra $5mil....if you have to franchise Sam then you forget dumping Murray for another year to cover the difference. Not ideal but he can be kept. He mentioned never being in the same system for more than a year and wanting to stay in a system and improve. He seems like a pretty sincere guy, guess we will find out. He robbed the Rams, not like he needs the $

he's going to sign for whatever the market dictates. As the number one available quarterback (by a mile), he's going to get about 18 million, I'd guess. I am very doubtful he'll give Philly a hometown discount. It's been one year and the support from the fan base hasn't been overwhelming.

 

[VA703]

Bradford looks better but man he misses receivers open by 20 yards all the time. Missed 2 wide open TD's today.

I have no idea what they are doing with that idiotic RB rotation..

the skins were putting on some decent pressure. he had some good throws but most of the drops were on the receivers hands. he did over throw a few but he cant be blamed entirely. that team is a disaster

"Great" is stretching it IMO. He plays very well once the game is out of reach, yes. Not sure if it is the "yips" or just how his game will always be, but it seems that even the slightest pocket pressure rattles him into mistakes.

I would agree though that Bradford is not their biggest issue. No QB in the NFL today would be capable of over-coming the Birds defensive woes.

 

[Kwai Chang Caine]

I said Bradford is decent--possibly vey good. With what's available, he's the best. I never said he was "great." But if this idiot GM could actually draft real skill players like his predecessor could, pull his head out of his ### and hire a decent DC where they actually have some talent, then yeah, I think Bradford is more than adequate.

He's not great.....maybe above average. He is worth continuing the process with to see if he can improve in the system and I think he is good enough to win with.

See Joe Flacco.

Franchise. $21.6mil but you can't go into next year with Sanchez. This is where having a GM like Howie would have helped cap wise.

 

[Insein]

Murray can possibly be a June 1st designation which means he only costs $8mil to cut. Which is what his salary is. This is according to over the cap which is pretty accurate.

 

[Mighty Mice]

Sam Bradford: "This Is Where I Want To Be."

The Eagles season hasn’t gone how Sam Bradford envisioned when he joined the team in the offseason, but the quarterback said he still wants to re-sign and be back next year.

“I’ve enjoyed my time here. I’ve enjoyed being in Philadelphia,” Bradford said after the Eagles’ 38-24 loss against Washington. “I think throughout my career, I’ve learned that learning new offenses every year, it’s just hard to continue to improve. You are always learning. You are learning new verbiage, learning new plays, learning new systems. And I would really like to stay in the same one and have the opportunity to play a second year.”

-------
“We are not at the stage where we have been talking about that," Bradford said, "but if it does present itself and I do have the opportunity, then this is where I want to be.”

Bradford had a rough start to the season, throwing more interceptions (10) than touchdowns (9) in his first seven games. However, in his last six games, he has thrown eight touchdowns and three interceptions while recording a passer rating below 91 just once.

Jordan Matthews compared Bradford to Andy Dalton and Cam Newton, saying those quarterbacks needed time to develop in their systems before playing as well as they have this season.

“I know that’s going to be my guy, and I want him to be my guy," Matthews said. "I wholeheartedly believe he has to be the guy moving forward. You’ve seen progression; you’ve seen how much better he’s gotten; you’ve seen the chemistry that he’s been able to build with me, Zach [Ertz], some of the other receivers. I was at a low point a little bit and he kept picking me up. He kept bringing me up, and now I think you’ve seen us grow. Like I said, it’s got to be him.”
Matthews added that the Eagles "need" Bradford, citing the quarterback's talent and the importance of consistency. The second-year receiver said the same applies to Nelson Agholor and Josh Huff, two young wide outs who have performed below expectations this season.

“I know people hate to hear it, but it’s the truth of the matter: it does take time. It takes time to build those relationships. It takes time to build that camaraderie, but I’m committed to it and I know Sam’s the guy," Matthews said. "That chemistry does have to get built. That time does have to be put in for everybody to grow to be the team you want to be.”

Zach Ertz agreed with Matthews' assessment, before adding the decision isn't up to him and his teammates.

“I want to go into an offseason with the same quarterback," Ertz said. "We had that with Nick [Foles] one offseason, but he got hurt the following year. It’s hard. We want Sam back, but ultimately it’s not going to be our decision.”

[Mighty Mice]

Mixed reactions in here from last night re: Bradford, but IMO to paraphrase Giselle, the QB can't throw the ball and catch it too. An unbelievable number of drops stopped drives and took points directly away from Philadelphia. Agholor makes the end zone catch, Cooper holds on to the 40+ yard gain, this offense hangs 30+. Murray holds onto an easy pitch take 7 right away from the other team. Catching is fundamental.

Not that Sam is a top tier QB, but he clearly has shown he can lead the offense. To me, the trade of Foles and a 2 looks pretty good, assuming Sam re-signs. The bigger question in my mind is can this motley crew of receivers elevate their game to levels approaching average? Matthews, Huff, Ertz and Agholor are all round 1/2/3 picks and got lots of experience this year and built some chemistry with the offense, the QB, and together. They have to gel.

On defense, I will be irate if they keep Billy Davis and this defensive scheme. Can't tackle, which is inexcusable, but all to often they are not in position or left in a bad spot on the field, overmatched by a competent play caller on the other side.

Adjustments? Tackling? Catching the ball? Apparently they are optional in Philadelphia this year. So tired to watch a team beat themselves with horrendous drops, penalties, fumbles, etc.

See you all next year.

Perusing the list of potentially available free agent WRs, the only name that jumps out as a legit #1 is Alshon Jeffery. He's pretty much alone in the upper tier, barring any surprise cuts. I don't expect the Birds to target any receivers that pricey, but a reasonably priced veteran should be a priority. Second tier types look like:

Marvin Jones

Rueben Randle

Travis Benjamin

Rishard Matthews

James Jones

Kamar Aiken

Any of these could wind up getting overpaid because of the general weakness of the free agent class. But depending on how the market evolves, one of them could be a viable target for this team.

I keep seeing LB as being a position to address in the draft. I completely disagree. Jordan Hicks will be back and will solidify the LB position. Our front seven talent is better suited for a 4-3. Graham, Cox, Logan, Curry starting d-line with Kendricks, Hicks, and Barwin/Alonzo at linebackers. Typical Kelly trying to jam a square peg into a round hole. Curry needs to be an every down starter and Jenkins needs to stay at safety and not wasted as a nickel corner covering slot receivers.

I like the young talent at corner with Rowe, Wadkins, and Rice. If coached right and put in the right scheme, they can contribute.

As for the draft, we need to concentrate on BIG O-line players,safety, and speed at the offensive skill positions. Tired of seeing our inside 3 on the o-line getting pushed around. Please, get rid of the defensive staff and implement a 4-3 scheme.

Can someone explain to me what value Riley Cooper brings to the team.

Sorry for the rants...

I think Travis Benjamin would be a great fit on the Eagles offense. Would bring much needed speed. One player who I think would be perfect is Tavon Austin, but I see he is not a free agent until after next season.

I don't see Aiken leaving, and I don't think Jones is good without Rodgers. Benjamin is the guy I'd like to see here. We need that speed. If Nelson and Huff develop a bit more, and our WR's learn to catch, then we can get rid of Cooper and have Nelson, Matthews, Ertz, Huff, Benjamin and that's actually a decent group (if they can catch)

A top-notch WR coach should definitely be an offseason priority as well.

It amazes me how Philly fans roasted Reid and McNabb on this board but Kelly a pass. You get what you deserve.

Get the #### out jerkoff.

Don't get mad at me because your coach traded away your best players for hot garbage. How much money does Philly have in rbs? Chip spending money on rbs like he using Oregon Alumni money.

You came in here just to talk smack. Cool.

Yes. I hope Chip returns to make your draft and free agency interesting, I'm looking forward to Oregon East and "Kelly players".

I dont recall you posting anything after Kelly inherited a 4-12 team and won 10 games two years in a row. Please use the offseason to work on your trolling. You're terrible at it.

He won with Reid players. How are those "Kelly" players working out?

Those great Reid players that won 4 games?

Ignoring this clown is the only way to deal with him.

it was Reid and those very players who were 4-12 the year before Chip got here. Try again, son.

I pretty much see this all the same way.

Reid and those players seem to be doing better than Chip lately.

4-12 Buddy. It was time for a change. And the only player he let go that I wish we had back is Maclin.

I agree with much of what you say but I'm not sure Barwin fits a 4-3. He might be odd man out or reduced to situational pass rusher.
