I agree with you. I'm just not sure he'll take a step back this upcoming season. What has changed around him? He's going to be doing what he did last year. Running the football and throwing into heavy run defenses. The talent is still around him.
They lost some talent, their schedule can only be harder, and another year of film on him. Running him as much as they do has never been a long lasting, sustainable thing, it ruined Wentz, RGIII, and others.

You don't think Hurts was that good last year? Seems like a lot of people who played against him have a different opinion.
I think he had a great year last year but I don’t think he’s as good as he looked. He had a stacked roster, weak schedule, and he ran the ball a lot.

So, like I said.....EVERYONE that was more successful than us last year will take a step back....WE will take a step forward (because, after all, we're always the best team in the NFC regardless of what the records and playoffs say).

Gotcha. Glad we cleared that up.

Just gotta hope THE REFS don't single us out again.
Well I’m shocked you’re still here since we haven’t won in so long and you only jump on bandwagons…why don’t you have the Yankees in you sn?

Sure...I hate the way things have played out for the last 30 years....but at least it doesn't make me make the same dumb predictions every year....then rinse and repeat.

The whole "we were better than all the teams that were better than us" woulda coulda krap and all the "they just got lycky" or "their player isn't that good he just got lucky" krap just gets so lame after a while. It's LOSER mentality.

Until people MAN UP, and say "you know what, they WERE better than us last year, and we just haven't been good enough the last 3 decades" then that LOSER mentality will have us woulda-coulda-shoulda-ing for another 30 years.


Winners admit when they're beaten, and take it, and try to learn from it. LOSERS say they really WEREN'T beaten, that "they beat themselves" and poor luck and INJURIES AND REFS were to blame.

HATE loser mentality.....YUK. Philly and SanFran were the better teams last year....and overall the last 25 years. THIS is a new year though. Let's see what we've learned

On paper they look really good. Their QB doesn't even have to go through progressions. He goes through one or two reads tops, then takes off. That's when it isn't a designed run for him. The team around him is good enough for this to succeed. I keep bringing this up, it's similar to Lamar Jackson in 2019. Their success only lasted 1 year. I'm hoping you're right and this is the same. I'm never going to call their QB elite until I see him drop back and throw into coverage. The talent around him allows him to avoid doing this.

Here are some worthless power rankings. They mean nothing except for something to discuss. Enjoy!

Sporting News:
1. Kansas City Chiefs (previous 2023 ranking: 1), 2. Philadelphia Eagles (2), 3. San Francisco 49ers (5), 4. Cincinnati Bengals (3), 5. Buffalo Bills (4), 6. New York Jets (7), 7. Detroit Lions (6), 8. Jacksonville Jaguars (10)

9. Dallas Cowboys (8)

The Cowboys have gone through some offensive lumps as Mike McCarthy and Brian Schottenheimer have taken charge. But despite the viral Dak Prescott passing mistakes in camp, featuring Tony Pollard and adding Brandin Cooks have been key, testing and bringing out even better play out of the defense.


10. Baltimore Ravens (14)

PFF:
1. KANSAS CITY CHIEFS, 2. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES, 3. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS, 4. CINCINNATI BENGALS, 5. BUFFALO BILLS, 6. NEW YORK JETS, 7. DALLAS COWBOYS, 8. LOS ANGELES CHARGERS, 9. CLEVELAND BROWNS, 10. BALTIMORE RAVENS

1. Kansas City, 2. Philadelphia, 3. San Francisco, 4. Cincinnati, 5. Buffalo,

6. Dallas

Is it possible Micah Parsons has another level to reach as a defender? With seemingly each passing day, there’s mention of Parsons doing something ridiculous in Cowboys camp, and it begs the question of whether the first-team All-Pro linebacker can add more layers to his game. Head coach Mike McCarthy even scolded Parsons for violating the camp moratorium on hitting quarterbacks, and not just camp arms -- we’re talking Dak Prescott, too. Parsons has reached the 13-sack threshold in both of his NFL seasons, so the bar is high. But it just feels like we’re about to witness an Aaron Donald-like impact from Parsons in 2023, even if he hasn’t been too far off from that already.


7. Baltimore, 8. NY Jets, 9. Miami, 10. Jacksonville

something odd I’ve noticed is a lot of posters who aren’t fans of Dak or don’t think highly of him, refer to him as “prescott”
That's his name, right? There's nothing odd about referring to someone by their name.

I don't think highly of him and I call him Dak. Does it really matter that much?

sure there is, as I explained. I can’t help you process information any more than by explaining it directly. I also didn’t say eceryone who dislikes him exclusively calls him Prescott. I said the majority of people who call him prescott dislike him

I’m not sure why the Bengals are so low. They scare me a lot more than Philly and San Francisco. They are on par with the Chefs.

Why would the Bengals scare you? The Cowboys won't play them this year.

I don’t think either of those teams were really better than us last year and we should definitely be better. Had we not purposely thinned our WR corps we might’ve made it all the way. Is SF’s qb situation going to to be better? I didn’t think Hurtz was that good anyway and they got gifted a SB trip. Don’t think that happens again.
Honestly I think the NYG and Wash will be better than they were last year.
I don’t think you could read my post history and call me a homer.
San Fran and Philly weren't better than Dallas and Hurtz wasn't that good (even though his peers voted him the 3rd best in the entire league) but you're not a homer. Gotcha!

SuperBowlz was one of the October Boys along with Bama and Cowboys1966. A trio of Eagles fans who joined here to tell everyone about the Eagles impending undefeated season. Oops
