Exactly. It took this team three months to figure out Rico Dowdle should get more than 8 carries per game, and all of a sudden boom, he's a 1000 yard back.There is no way in hell Barkley is getting close to 2000 yards in this offense.. you would be getting a Barkley closer to the Giants than the Eagles….
Good backs make their own holes, we've had backs that just run straight ahead and get knocked down for so long you've forgotten what a real back with talent is like.Hardly anything. We didn't have the blocking to truly unleash an excellent RB. , sometimes not a passing attack, and a coach who thinks run game as an afterthought.
And ...Jerry.
This was key, phil doesnt have a problem with tough decisions, neither do the rams, broncos, KC , and other good teams.Philly will have theirs coming up where they’ll have to make tough decisions
Well....it's a HUGE "if" for them to make a SB this year....just like it is for any single team at this point, especially a team without a 1st round BYE. Nothing against them...just a basic fact, that there are 7 teams in the NFC going for it, and only 1 will go.Just remember, the Eagles if they make the SB this year, would have made three in the last 8 years. Every time they make one, fans here (and probably our idiotic owners too) say, "oh boy, they sold out for their run and now they are going to pay the price!!!!"
And magically, they somehow quickly clean up their cap and retool.
Jerry and Stephen should never put the word Eagles in their mouths. It just makes them look foolish. Roseman is running circles around these clowns.
When you think about all the Daksters here asking "what's the alternative" lol. Seems like other teams are coping extremely well with that question.Rams too.
He just doesn't get it.
Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones when asked on @1053thefan about how the Eagles roster is constructed vs. how the Cowboys are constructed with all of their salary cap issues:
“I’ll say it again, it’s the world’s smallest violin, but unfortunately we have over 50 percent of our cap on (injured reserve). Those things, when they hit and hit at the wrong time, it makes for a challenge for a team. Obviously, San Francisco is another team that’s had their share of injuries this year in terms of a big percentage of their cap sitting on IR. Those are things that come with the territory."
"I know everybody has their different battles with the cap that hit at different times. Philly will have theirs coming up where they’ll have to make tough decisions. But, yeah, we’re constantly looking at ways to look at our salary cap to give us the best opportunity with players like Dak (Prescott), CeeDee (Lamb) and Micah (Parsons), and you throw (Trevon) Diggs in there, to let those guys hopefully, No. 1, stay on the field, but No. 2, give us the best opportunity to make a great run.”
Most of your post was spot on, except this part (unless you intended this part as sarcasm)…Howie would never pay just a handful of stars. And that’s just one the differences…The GM over there would love to have our problems with just having to pay a handful of stars.
No. I don't believe he would let someone like CD, or Parsons go. They have done a good job keeping their young stars under contract. Here they make a big deal out of it.Most of your post was spot on, except this part (unless you intended this part as sarcasm)…Howie would never pay just a handful of stars.

He wouldn’t have let CD go, of course not. But he would’ve signed him a year earlier for probably about $8 million less per year. And he would’ve found a trade partner for Dak. And if Dak would’ve refused the trade because of his no trade clause, he would’ve let it play out without resigning him.No. I don't believe he would let someone like CD, or Parsons go. They have done a good job keeping their young stars under contract. Here they make a big deal out of it.
Does he know who his father is?Stephen.
In the past two years, the Eagles have handed out big contracts/extensions to Hurts, AJ Brown, D Smith, L Dickerson, etc. And this after they gave out a bad contract to Wentz that they were smart and got out of. And then this offseason, after realizing what they had wasn;t good enough, they hit FA hard and signed Huff (which in fairness looks to be a bad signing) and Barkley (which looks to be the best FA signing).
They don't make excuses. They just work the system.
You and your moron of a father are just excuse makers.
None.What a buffoon
How many cowboys when fully healthy would start for the eagles?
3-5 before that cap got injuredWhat was the record when those guys on the IR were mostly healthy?
Beyond hate. And I hate very few things in this life. Jerry ranks right there w/ mosquitos and fleas.stephen and jerry are so dumb dude
it is 10x worse because they think they is smarter then every one else
i hate them both
