The lynchpin for me has always been Tyron Smith

I just didnt think it would happen this early. This season just went in the toilet, like it did last year when he went down. And Jerry has no one to blame but himself.

Another year wasted. The Eagles have to be the favorite to win the east now.

We HAVE to move on from Tyron Smith. Another Olineman has to be the #1 priority in the offseason.
Roy throwing in the towel before Week 1 at the first sign of adversity.

Color me shocked.

You did the same didn’t you?
I didn't pretend to be all aboard like Roy did and then throw in the towel as soon as a tiny bit of adversity happened.

Roy trashed anyone and everyone that thought this team wasn't going anywhere this season. Now, here he is saying the season is in the toliet because of Smith being injured? It seems to me some posters was just waiting for the first little thing to happen so they could be out. You can only fake confidence for so long.

I've been down on this roster from the start because I can see past my biases enough to see that the roster is just not the great. When you know you know.

Ahh I got you. I actually agree. Acting emotional over one injury…

I mean really...

How confident could you have really been in this team if "the season is down the toilet" because of an injury to the LT?

How is a team this fragile and ready to surrender after a key injury even in a conversation about the playoffs?

It is what it is. If the Cowboys have bad year than maybe they pick in top 10 and finally draft a QB. But knowing these dumb Jones boys they would draft a LT.

Unfortunately this is a fact when Tyron goes out or is not healthy this offense does not function period.
It has been proven positive enough times that the front office should have prepared for this a long time ago.

Failure to prepare for this is preparing to fail
Yep

Our FO was criticized heavily last year for this issue. And why we used our 1st round pick on Tyler . The call just comes much sooner than hoped.

If they don’t have a LT , that will be their greatest need if they draft another QB. Unless Tyler works out.

Well, to begin with because we’re in a weak division . And being in the playoff conversation isn’t what it used to be with 7 slots available for 16 teams in each conference.
