Johnson may be a good coach, but he doesn’t have playcalling flair. He doesn’t have that knack, I do think it’s a talent and it’s one I’m not so sure he has

Oh there’s absolutely no way I see anything happening in the playoffs as is. There’s too many issues. I’m almost giving up on this years team at this point. I’m almost there.


I honestly am there already and maybe they surprise me. But these last 3 weeks the bottom has fallen out. I still believe in Nick and Jalen. But both 100% need to be better. I don’t believe in Patricia and Johnson. I don’t believe in the back 7. It’s just too easy for teams to pick on them in the middle of the field. And bradberry is an easy PI or deep ball

Only reason I haven’t completely given up is I think the eagles have the talent, I just don’t think they have the coaching. Plus in sports over the years I’ve realized anything can happen. But let’s just say I’m not placing any bets on the eagles right now…lol

And the defense needs a pretty big overhaul in the back. The line is fine. But the back 7 is in shambles.

I think ringo, brown, and blankenship might be keepers but I think everybody else needs to go. Nakobe dean is a maybe for me but he’s always injured.lol that’s a lotta guys to replace


Yeah not bringing back TJ edwards was huge. I like ringo, ricks, Blankenship, and brown

I don’t like slay (anymore), bradberry, any of the LBs

But also the eagles just need better in general. More talent. I don’t think it’s a quick fix personally

Ah yes ricks too. He’s a little inconsistent but I do think he’s got talent for sure. As an udfa you really can’t ask for too much more

Last year they were saying the Eagles had the best roster by a big margin.

Plus they had a high FRP. But they had a ridiculous number of sacks which was going to be hard to repeat back to back.


They did last year

They don’t this year

The CBs aged and they lost some good players

That high FRP has done pretty well and the DL isn’t going to get very many sacks when WRs get open really quickly. What’re they supposed to do?

Yeah I mean flat out the eagles got worse at both coordinators. They need upgrades there big time

Most their talent is on offense but the offense has been a joke and that’s how bad the playcalling has been. AJ brown and Devonta can win pretty quickly, why the eagles aren’t running quick game is beyond me

Purdy might play a quarter or two to polish his MVP award

i wish i did put money on purdy winning the mvp two weeks ago. Maybe I’ll put $100 on CMC winning just for the gag

Once it came down to him and Dak it was obvious he would eventually pull away

I remember jokingly saying week 3 or 4 he would win the MVP and ruffled some feathers, didnt have any real expectations at the time but football gods work in mysterious ways.

A lot can happen in 3 weeks...and the football Gods do work in mysterious ways.

I don't think Dak is in there any more but I do think Lamar could pull it out with a SF loss.

You can make a lot of money if you are still holding on to hope that Lamar or anyone else has a chance. Injury is the only thing that stops this train.

Oh hell, I didn't even realize that the Ravens play 49ers on Christmas.

Ravens win that game and that would do it for Lamar....just sayin

I mean I think Purdy will win, but at 5-1 payout for Lamar that actually seems like a great risk-reward type bet given they play each other.

Lamar is so far behind as a passer, he would need to win like 40-0 to catch up. But take it if you think there is a good chance of that happening.
