What Eagles Fans are Saying

I don't even understand the Sir Cameron Newton: Leader of Men, Lover of Puppies...Esquire play on words. He was never a scammer... It's like me calling their old QB Donovan McStabb when he's never been accused of stabbing someone.

Philbillys don't let facts get in the way of insulting someone. It's their culture. Insult complete strangers before fighting them. Rob you if they win and then Philadelphia Parking Authority tows the victim's car while their recovering in the hospital. Completely different set of manners than Southern gentlemen and ladies have.

Luck is losing his shine this season. The narrative we'll hear if we beat the Clots will be about Luck struggling this year after getting to the AFC championship game last season instead of how much better the Panthers are getting, just like the Seattle game.

ok, read your first and last sentences. You created that narrative yourself

Didn't create it, just some advance scouting. Last week is what they are considering his first good game of this season. They laid the groundwork for the focus to be put on what's wrong with Luck and the Clots if we win. Same way Seattle got the lion's share of the spotlight after we won.

Anything can be argued because his current performance arc drives the narrative. It's that way with Peyton, too. He's been great in the past, but he's not scary this season. There's been a ton of debate on here about Luck, especially comparing him to Cam. In the interest of keeping the talk focused on the Iggles, I used the qualifier undisputably in my original post. I have an opinion about Luck's past seasons, but that doesn't mean I need to share it with everyone and rehash an offseason debate yet again.

comparing a great qb on his final legs to a rising star in his fourth year. Smh "he hasn't been scary this season" like he somehow forgot to play football over the offseason after that AFC championship game appearance. 

 

Your falling into a trap of thinking a media narrative has anything to actually do with a players skill level. Because he isn't "perceived" as being as good as he was doesn't make it true. You would think people would have learned that by now under cams 5th year.

I cant think of a comment snarky enough to truly convey how hard i laughed at that eagles fan when he kept going on about the giants game from years ago as his platform for "Cam cant bring his team back from adversity!! NO NO NO I DONT WANT TO HEAR ABOUT ALL THE TIMES HE HAS DID YOU NOT SEE THAT GIANTS GAME MAN? WERE YOU NO WATCHING? QUIT BEING A HOMER #towel #adversity #bradfordleaderofmen"

 

What a collection of south jersey racist yankee dorks

There is something perversely hilarious about a team saying "they haven't played a good QB" when that team also doesn't have a good QB.

Bradford will be like the 3rd or 4th best QB we have faced this year...

This ain't the Giants.  Eagle offense plays like they did on Monday they have no shot.

Luck is playing with a bum throwing shoulder behind iffy OL play.

Kinda a similar type thing as Cam playing w/ bad foot, busted ribs early last season....Luck is legit when healthy.  Has his own flaws but definitely a legit top young QB.

    • Seriously? Rub some dirt in it and get back on the field. 
    • hiring matt rhule and giving him full control was maybe the worst singular decision this franchise has ever made outside of Rae Caruth 
    • Vikings bring back WR Thielen from Panthers Vikings get: WR Adam Thielen, conditional 2026 seventh-round pick, 2027 fifth-round pick Panthers get: 2026 fifth-round pick, 2027 fourth-round pick Vikings grade: A- Panthers grade: C+ The Vikings have re-united with their longtime receiver Adam Thielen. Assuming the conditions of the 2026 pick headed to Minnesota are met, the Vikings will have moved back two rounds in next year's draft and one round in 2027's draft to acquire the single year remaining on the 35-year-old receiver's contract. This is fine business. The Vikings' receiver depth will be tested early this season, as WR3 speedster Jalen Nailor recovers from a hand injury and WR2 Jordan Addison serves a three-game suspension. Depth receiver Rondale Moore had a season-ending knee injury early this offseason, leaving rookie Tai Felton and veteran Tim Jones as the depth behind Justin Jefferson to start the season. Thielen should slot right into a familiar offense and provide a good safety blanket for young quarterback J.J. McCarthy, who needs strong early performances in September to boost his confidence and generate some positive momentum. I like the deal a lot for that reason: McCarthy won't spend the first three starts of his NFL career endeavoring to make up for bad receiver play. This is actually a bigger risk for the Panthers than it appears. From Week 8 on last season -- the stretch in which quarterback Bryce Young came back and looked solid -- Thielen was the Panthers' best receiver. Sure, guys like Jalen Coker and Ja'Tavion Sanders were having breakout games, and the backs were getting involved as pass catchers, but it was Thielen who drove the ship. Thielen averaged 2.47 yards per route run in that stretch, which was the 14th best number in the NFL. He also caught 80% of his targets when Coker and Xavier Legette caught 63.2% and 56.4%, respectively. Thielen was so valuable that the Panthers gave him a raise in March worth $1.5 million to encourage him to stave off retirement. The drafting of first-round receiver Tetairoa McMillan always foretold a decrease in target share for Thielen. But keeping Thielen around for another year would have helped smooth the transition. Now the Panthers enter the season with a starting receiver trio (McMillan, Coker and Legette) full of big-play potential but no proven chemistry with Young over the middle of the field. That's an important cornerstone of the Panthers' offensive system that needs replacing. -- Solak
