How awesome would it be if the Eagles had their 6th pick dropped to 32nd as a penalty. You don't do that in the NFL, let alone during primetime. New York Media will be all over it.

Just looking at stats, Hurts wasn’t any better than his backup.
35% completion rate. 72 yards. 0 TDs and an INT.

Maybe the Eagles had seen enough of him lately as well.

I know there's other sports who penalize teams who do that

The NBA just calls it "load management". Sucks to be a NBA fan and pay good money for a ticket to then NOT see the top players in the game. Of course this covid season not withstanding.

Again and if jaylen hurts gets hurt in a meaningless game and can’t play beginning of next year?

I agree I wouldn’t have benched him but I understand
Brandon Graham was still in after Hurts was pulled and got hurt. Not significant but imagine if he did get a big injury playing in a game they were tanking? How would everyone on that team feel?

I’d argue Dallas has a little more light with a more proven QB when healthy . With Dak we easily win division this year with 8 or 9 wins. Even with this defense.

I actually think Skins need a QB with that defense. And NY with Barkley returning, Jones developing and a sound defense could be more formidable.

I think that's realistic. Defense would have kept us from winning many more than that.

Iggles fans hopeful that they get Devonta Smith. I can't wait till they miss out on him. Karma gawds will set this right :laugh::muttley:

He played 10 games with Kyle Allen and Dwayne Haskins at QB and went through chemotherapy during the season. Still beat the crap out of the Cowboys twice.
shall I go through what MM has gone through on the field? This is my point as much as I think MM should be fired after this screw up today, his cards were stacked against him greather than Rivera's, health aside. Fortunately for WFT they have developed a terrific defensive core which somehow was enough to get them to the playoffs.

I'm glad we lost. If we'd beaten the Giants and then watched Philthy lay down
like that with 12 minutes to go...... man. I bet the Giants are pissed!

Pederson might be jumpy every time his phone rings today.

If they take the FG and make it 17-17 I kind of like Phillys chances thereafter of they leave Hurts in.

Whatever. I'm hoping theres a lingering effect...and I think there may be....it was THAT obvious.

Quite possibly. I know this sounds odd, but I think he went for it because he figured they would not convert. A young QB that close to the endzone against that pass rush. The Eagles also punted on a different occasion instead of trying a 52 yard FG. Why?
