Anyone feel better after that PC?

I'm convinced that Jerry hired him cause he likes taking shots of Johhny Walker Blue. Shots=Schotty. Smh.
 
What past because 2 years ago they were "Heavy" by thier standards and have less cap this time ...so tell me exactly what you mean by heavy FA..we talking 2 to 3 day ones or 5 day 4 like normal?
They are going to create around 100 million in cap space this year.
 
Ok so you think they are about to go heavy FA? Your kidding right?
I don’t expect them to go heavy, but I could see a shift forthcoming. They have a new coach and probably interested in seeing him succeed to validate their prowess. But who knows? Their ineptitude and hubris knows no bounds.
 
Not at all.

Brian seems like a great guy, and in all likelihood, a good coach. His offensive changes sound great and exactly what we need.

But the other two showed no awareness or willingness to change anything that they do, and this is ultimately why every other good coach we've hired, including Mike, has failed and will always fail.

Jerry and Stephen were ignorant, condescending, and delusional. Not only have they not changed how they operate, they have doubled down, seemingly out of spite or disdain for the fans.
 
It doesn't look that way to me.
I love your enthusiasm, I really do but please say your are just kidding?

I swear you could have 10 tons of horse manure dumped on your lawn as a practical joke and you'd run to the shed to grab a spade as you'd assume there must be a million dollar thoroughbred hiding in there!

lets see it, then we can talk but if they bargain shop again while talking about injuries from last year you gotta know you've been hoodwinked again.

We will see in March because they have a lot of spots to fill and need to fill some before the draft.

Dude you defend any move this FO does. I guarantee you if we go dumpster diving in FA again, youll defend it

You can't see that this coach is going to give everything he has and has the players behind him? You can't see that they will take advantage of this draft to upgrade the running back room?
 
all i got was

1. Jerry doesn’t like beeing told they take too long on the coaching process

2. SJ and JJ have no idea how to emulate the eagles front office. they can only admire.

3. Shotty is in over his head. he may not be a bad HC but this FO does not let anyone do what they wanna do.

4. The jones LOVE FAMILIARITY.
On the 4th point. The Jones are not familiar with Brian. He’s only been here 2yrs. Jerry is too old right now to fight his sons on this so he just caves. It’s all Stephen in my opinion, he’s in way over his head. Strap up for the ride.
 
Nope. They avoided real questions. Especially when asked about the cap and how the Eagles use it to their advantage. I think even if BS turns out to be a good coach, we are too much in disarray for him to have something to work with.
So who is it on if they avoid real questions? That falls strictly on the media. Dallas media is super soft. And spare me the crap that they won’t get special access, it’s a bunch of crap.
 
I believe that is obvious that they have to do more in free agency than they have in the past. You can see that they have to to fill out the roster. It's simple math. It's also obvious that the draft sets up well for them to get some outstanding running backs that they need.

That doesn't at all preclude them from filling out the roster with cheap aging vets and rookies. Im not sure why you'd believe in a sudden change of philosophy.
 
IMO Fat Mike sounded confident and he had lifted a Super Bowl trophy. This wasn't like that at all. Jerry acted like he was drilling for oil blindly because via Osmosis the oil was going to be there. Lots of folks in the Pro Football Hall of Fame had kids who played and didn't do squat. Osmosis didn't work for them .

PS. I give you Emmitt Smiths son, Michael Irvins son and Tony Dorsett son. Osmosis my ***.
 
Not me...

We are in worse shape that I thought

Key take aways:
Jerry and Brian will likely cry 5 times a week
We got a shot with Shotty - makes me puke
Jones family does not know how to work the cap
Jerry hates clocks
Dak loves the hire
It felt like Schottenheimer was retiring in the speech - that is ending something rather than beginning a new era JMO

See Barkley. See Bobby Wagner. See open roster spots. See 100 million in cap space coming up.

I can see that, yes. I can also tell you I have all the enthusiasm and motivation in the world to run in the next Olympics but the talent will let me down a smidge.

Let me put it another way, can you tell me if the Eagles could plug in as many Cowboys players as they want to replace any of their starters on O and D, who would they pick? Who would YOU pick Rambo?

1 running back in the draft won't do it......or do you really think that gets us back on an even keel with our rivals?
