OT: Philadelphia Eagles: Bring On The Seahawks

[montreal]

Missed a few games in the 2nd half, had a few questions,

how ha Dilliard looked, do you think he's ready to take over for Peters next year?

what's up with JJ Whiteside, I hear his name but the guy never seems to catch a ball. I see they brought back Shelton Gibson, another of their failed WR picks.

Why hasn't Shareef Miller played, just another bad pick?

Also was wondering about this article,

Eagles Eyeing Big Move in 2020 Free Agency?
It stands the reason the Eagles might be loading for bear in 2020. The one lesson from this year is that the team lacks talent at the wide-receiver spot.

There will be several high-profile and well-accomplished names available, presumably to the highest bidder, in free agency. Guys like A.J. Green, Amari Cooper, Robby Anderson, Larry Fitzgerald and Danny Amendola are all due to hit the open market.

The decision to restructure two major contracts, like Brandon Graham and Isaac Seumalo, certainly lends credence to the theory the Eagles will be big-time players in 2020. In fact, Philadelphia has already been widely linked to bringing in Green.

ESPN pondered that possibility in their annual “Best Fits” column where they pegged Green for Philly. Depending on Green’s injury status, it makes perfect sense. Remember, the Bengals star hasn’t played in a game since Dec. 2, 2018 and has only been on the field for nine games over the past two seasons while dealing with a lingering ankle injury.

Per ESPN: 11. A.J. Green, WR — Best fit: Philadelphia Eagles. Even understanding that many of Philly’s struggles this year at wide receiver have been about injury, it’s still a major need. Green — himself out this season because of an ankle injury — is such a terrific talent and the type of player who would help rectify this offense’s problems in a hurry.​

I wouldn’t take AJ Green unless he came here for nothing.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

AJ Green would be such a Howie move.

There’s a blast from the past. God good Andy was losing it at that point.

Damn. I wanted him to the the D Coordinator to replace Schwartz along with Chip replacing Groh.

Was this the wide nine guy?

That was Jim Washburn the DL coach. Castillo was the OL coach turned Defensive Coordinator under Andy.

There were both together though during those two years as defensive staff members here before getting fired with Andy after 2012.

Casey Matthews starting Mike on that Dream Team.

I hope we're not saying AJ Green is anything but a tremendous WR when healthy. The injury problems are real, but there are definitely contracts that would make him an A++ signing.

I think someone ends up overpaying significantly, but let's at least see what the market dictates.

 

[YEM]

he's on the wrong side of 30 and has had significant injury issues in 3 of the past 5 seasons
am I talking about desean or green? does it matter?
that's not the gamble I think we should make imo

 

[JojoTheWhale]

am I talking about desean or green? does it matter?

Very much so. A healthy AJ Green is a top 5-10 receiver. Different decision matrix altogether.

Again, I don't want to outbid the market for him. I don't trust the health and he's been open about wanting every guaranteed dollar. I'm just saying there are contractual situations where he would make a ton of sense even if I don't think they're likely.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

So is Jason Garrett getting fired or not?

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

So is Jason Garrett getting fired or not?

The answer to that question is.... no, simply because if he's not brought back his contract is just up and he won't be retained so he's gone but not fired.

Whether he'll be back with the Cowboys is still obviously a mystery.

Well yeah that’s what I meant (the second part).

yeah for sure but we just did this last year with djax; signed a very good but very injury prone WR and, surprise, he was injury prone again.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

I know lol. Just nitpicking that he won't be fired.

Starting off with "Happy Thanksgiving," never change Snyder never change.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Booger driving those ratings boys & girls.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Is he staying in theme with his team name here?

Edit: missed it above.

culture change will happen when he sells the team.

 

[Cody Webster]

So the Browns are going to find a coach before a GM...wouldn't you typically want that the other way around?

Mike McCarthy is on their radar...

Typically you'd hire a Head Coach before a Coordinator but that's not what the Eagles did and that worked out.

Yeah, that's the first thing I thought. First step of a culture change would be changing the racist team name, you moron.
