If we lose out, we get a high draft pick

It sounds good in theory but on game day I can't root for us to lose.

I'll never root for us to lose, or hope that we lose for draft position.  That said, after today, I don't think we need to worry about ruining our draft position this year, it'll take care of itself

Honestly might need a two year tank/rebuild.  Hoping Tepper doesn't get too impatient and try to force a trade up in the draft risking the future. 

Agreed. We need to build a better OL so at least if we pick high again next year or there is a QB we fall in love with, he has a chance to succeed behind a good OL.

A top 5 pick isn’t going to happen. 8 teams with 3 or less wins and we have a relatively high SOS which will likely get better or stay the same with games against NO, Indy and Seattle. That means we lose tiebreakers. There’s little chance that 3 win teams win 3 of their last 4 or 5.

We just need to hope we lose out and get into the top 10. I think we are 13th now and the only teams ahead of us with high SOS are Atlanta and Denver so hopefully they win a couple more. Denver beating the Chargers hurts a bit because it keeps both worse than us. 

Philly seem as determined as us to tank since the lost to MIA today.

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
