Who cares.

Competitive competition.
It is not a big deal if your team is getting beat and you want the ball to help them get back in the game. However, the Eagles were up by 14 points when this happened. Most team players would be thrilled that their team was leading by 2 TDs and not have any complaints. Not really the time to go all diva about not getting the ball. I hope Lamb never acts this way when we are up by 2 TDs. What the Eagles were doing on offense was working. Why start drama on the sidelines because you aren't getting your touches?

Keep an eye on this.......obviously, he was jealous of Smith. I'm sure they will play it down but what about the next time make more plays?

Jalen Hurts on dispute with A.J. Brown: “Everybody wants to make plays”​

Personally I like fire in the belly. I want our wide outs to demand thr ball from Dak. People that want the ball are the types that usually make plays in the biggest moments. Smart QB's understand this personality and then they feed the beast.

Yes they could be, maybe should be 0-2. But they aren't. 2-0 is still 2-0 no matter how you got there.

They had many games like this lat year as well. Games they probably should have lost. But they get the lucky bounces their way. I never seen such a luckier team.
Eventually that will hurt them against better teams. They had a pretty weak schedule last season.
Swift rushed for 175 yards. How often does any team win when an opposing running back rushes for 175 yards?

Look at the Vikings defense. They got gutted up the middle and did nothing to try to stop them. They were worn down midway in the 2nd quarter.
Great game by Swift.

If fans go back to how the Rams gutted us in the playoff game, what 4 years ago? Then they need to look at this game as well.

IMHO this is not true. Most of the big time divas are incredibly talented and put up massive stats but do not rise to the occasion when it matters most. They are mentally fragile and get shut down by premium defenders. The true greats do not have to cry for the ball because they are making the plays and know that they will get it because they are the best option. They are confident, not insecure. A J Brown does not impress me that much. His cry baby routine will get old fast.

This is two games now I have watched Hurts and he has looked very ordinary, certainly nothing like the top rated QB in the NFL It's early but perhaps they anointed him a bit too soon?
Pretty sure some others are wondering the same thing but like you said, it's early. It appears they are trying to limit the impact of his legs and force him to throw in tight windows.

You be tripping. Dude played in the super bowl last year now he is 2 and 0. As long as he keeps running the way he does they will be a tough out and will contend for the super bowl.

I was mostly thinking this offense would get Hurts killed but if it pissing the offense is pissing the WR off too so much the better.
As I said, if that is AJ Brown's reaction to not getting the ball in a game his team was at the time winning by double digits, then I can only imagine how he'll react if he's not getting the ball and his team loses or goes on any sort of losing streak.

So in my fantasy draft, I was sitting there between Brown and Smith.

I took Brown.

I may have chosen poorly. LOL.
I took Brown too lol. Long run I think Brown will produce more. I think when teams try to take Smith away as much as Brown, Browns production will go way up

TO was obviously an exceptional WR but how many Superbowls did he win again?
what does to not having a SB win have to do with anything? The SB he did play in and lose, he was clearly the best player on the field... coming off a broken ankle if I remember correctly.

Stuff like this happens all the time. And many fans will look at it in a negative way. Which it can be. But it also is in the heat the moment type thing.

How often did we go through this with Michael and Dez. When there was nothing to it.

Media will act as if a problem, depending who and what team trying to stir up stuff.
Fans will do the same.
yet I remember this board having 100 page threads on our sideline issues stating it shows we are a dumb selfish team which puts individuals ahead of team etc.

Brown wants to make plays too. I don't see an issue.
