  1. Well, the whole Necas and Rantanen fiasco was a massive massive blunder by Tulsky. That said, it's one that this team can easily survive and forget about soon enough. But hopefully it's a wakeup call for the rookie GM and he actually learns a lot from it. Hopefully Stankoven proves to be decent but man just such an underwhelming return for giving away Necas. Rantanen is a bitch but whatever I don't blame him, he didn't owe us anything or ask to be traded here. Our fault for trading for a pending UFA without having contract discussions with him before the trade.

  2. He was a really solid long term Panther who was always a team-first guy. Sad to see him go but this is absolutely for the best. He never quite lived up to our expectations (which may have been unreasonable considering how spoiled we had been at LBer before him), but he was ultimately one of Gettleman's few good draft picks and did contribute to our last 2 playoff runs.

  3. I don't think this says anything about Bryce. I think it was already obvious we're going into next year with Bryce as starter, but if he doesn't silence all questions this year I think the plans at QB may shift, especially if we have a high pick in 2026. I suppose I still wouldn't rule out Cam Ward this draft but that seems highly highly unlikely.

    Dalton is a solid backup at that price whether it's Bryce or someone else in the room with him. Honestly, not even a terrible bridge starter either if Bryce sucks next year and we move on but don't want to throw a rookie QB in '26 to the wolves.

  4. I think it's pretty damn obvious that our main focus this offseason needs to be improving the pass rush. Brown back healthy will help but we still have absolutely nothing at edge rusher. Eagles just dominated a super bowl entirely because of an elite 4 man pass rush. Yeah we could use receivers, another corner, whatever but all of that should be secondary to pass rush.

     

    I don't follow college much until looking at prospects closer to draft season -- who are some guys we could target in the first few rounds?

    So add a new penalty for helmet to helmet lineman play, that sounds like the issue right? 

    Wrong again, pal. Your comments on this topic show you know nothing about it. It's all the force on the players in the middle's joints, backs, necks, etc. 

    Personally I don't care about the injury aspect of it, it's a physical sport, modern day gladiators and all. It's an incredibly boring play and even if it was us running it successfully all the time I'd want it banned. But when the only way the D could stop it is banned because of injury reasons then you gotta also ban it on offense. Just a stupid stupid play with the rules as they currently stand.

    So it's available to every team to execute then?

    not really, plenty of teams aren't stupid enough to continually put their players at risk. Sirianni is a massive douche and doesn't care, honestly bet the play contributed to Kelce retiring earlier than he could've.

    Why? It's even numbers on each side, just like every other play. The stronger team wins

    WRONG. Offense is allowed to push their teammates' backs, D is not allowed to do that

    The most boring and obnoxious play in football. Works though, and no one does it like Philly. Can't blame them for doing it.

    yeah I don't hate the Eagles for it they'd be stupid not to. but hate that the league still allows it. either ban it or let the defense do the same thing
