OT: Philadelphia Eagles: This is the end

[Chinatown88]

If Ruggsie goes to the ****ing Stillers, like I saw in a mock, I may actually drop dead from grief.

I don't think he declared yet. The Steelers don't have a 1st rounder anyway. That went to Miami in the Fitzpatrick deal.

OH RIGHT! Thanks for the reminder, bud. There's no chance in hell that he drops out of the first after the combine (if he declares).

EDIT: I wonder what the **** that mock was doing.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Yeah but I'm talking about making a crackpot post like them good old Eagles Message Board posters. Man the things I used to read on that site during the offseason.

Oh man. Who was the fraud that tried to launch a "career" as an Insider from there? Jim something? I have to figure out who the hell that guy was.

If it involves Chip Kelly, firing Howie Roseman, and Tua. It has my blessing.

I think his name was Jim-Erik Eklund.

Probably the guy that dropped Jeudy because he only had 40 yards in a game once.

JIM STARK. I forgot he existed.

Holy shit! I forgot about that. The laughs I had reading his posts.

I used to be a moderator on the EMB back in the late 1990s into the 2000s, so I feel your pain (anyone remember the "Levon Kirkland will never be an Eagle" thread?). Banning people was like trying to shoot a giant swarm of flies with a cannonball.

Was Nancy Kerrigan injury prone too ?

f***ing morons

 

[YEM]

to go from Gruden/Garrett/Shurmur to Rivera/McCarthy/Possibly Rhule in the division is not good.
We've been lucky that the Giants and Skins have been a clown show, we're 12-0 against them over the last 3 seasons

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

@JojoTheWhale I'm going to need to hear those positives, please.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

@Captain Dave Poulin I think there's a real chance McCarthy is a much better hire in his second go around. This is worth a read for you:

FMIA Week 15: Mike McCarthy Gets Creative To Prepare For His Next Shot

Toss out the fluff and look at how he's listening to evidence-based conclusions. He made Rodgers' career with his top-down mechanical rework. It's playcalling where he was a dinosaur.

Well, we have to separate the problems with the English language from the problems with idiots looking to take shots at Wentz. "Injury prone" means "tending to be injured," "often injured," etc. You guys would know better than me whether that is true or not, but it seems like he has been injured a lot. But "injury prone" is very different from "weak," "fragile," "unreliable," etc., the words that lurk underneath a lot of the stupider criticism I have seen of Wentz ... but again, you guys would know better than me.

Darnell says differently.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Can these reporters stop saying that the Cowboys were the first to hire a coach?

I know the Redskins are forgettable but uh...

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Darnell says differently.

There's always a chance ego takes over and these guys fall back into their own traps.

Good sign that Rovell hates it though!

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Weirdos.

 

[Jack Straw]

McCarthy wasted a big chunk of the career of the best QB the game has seen. I have a good feeling about this.

It's interesting. Like you said later, though, let's see if it's real or just a bunch of hot air.

The following is a spoof post inspired by the posters of the official Eagles Message Board. It is not meant to be taken in any serious manner. It's for FUN.

Offseason plan version 1.0

Fire Howie Roseman. It's time for Howie to go. Sure he's a brilliant capologist but it's clear he can't draft. Our drafts the past couple of years have been abysmal.
Replacement Morocco Brown. Helped Chris Ballard retool that Indy roster.

Time to take Doug away from play calling. Maybe fire Mike Groh too. Offense has been exceedingly average. Makes me wonder how much of the play calling during the Super Bowl Season was all Frank Reich.
Replacement: Hire @Hollywood Couturier 's favorite lad, Chip Kelly. We need Chip for our new QBs, more on that below.

Trade Carson Wentz to Miami for the 5th overall, 18th overall and Houston's 1st rounder.
Reasoning: Miami is a stupid franchise. Clearly we can fleece them again. Carson has been paid big money and we could use some cap flexibility to upgrade other parts of the roster.

At the draft
5th overall - Tua Tagovailoa. Franchise QB if he can recover from his injuries. Chip will do wonders with him.

18th overall - Henry Ruggs III. Reunited Tua with one of his targets from Alabama. We need speed on the outside and this lad can fly.

21st overall - Jalen Reagor/Tee Higgins. Depends if we need speed out of the slot or another big target.

Houston's 1st round selection: BPA. Go secondary if there's a CB/S available or maybe an EDGE rusher slides.

Rest of draft BPA.

Alternative draft: Use one of the 1st rounders (18th, 21st or Houston's 1st round pick) and our 2nd round pick to trade back up into the top 15 selections to guarantee Ceedee Lamb. He's just a playmaker at WR. Has good size and quickness.

Offseason. Since Tua probably won't be ready for the start of the season, sign Marcus Mariota. Clearly wasn't given a fair shot with the Titans. Changed OCs every year. Reunite him with his college coach Chip and he'll be back in form.

Okay that was tedious. How the heck do people type up these kinds of things all the time?

Fixed sorry. I somehow hit post by accident.
