Just can't see it from a team down to their 4th string QB. Hell, even with Purdy. He's a game managing caliber QB not a comeback caliber QB. There's levels to this QB thing.

Might not, but that's what's been fun. Crazy stuff has happened a lot.

JFC, seriously? The only reason Reddick signed with us was because he knew Rhule and Snow would use him well. I know Rhule sucks but c’mon, how many posts about Temple and Baylors guys did we have and now Reddick a Temple guy didn’t want to play for Rhule and Snow? It’s very possible that knowing Rhule was on the hot seat was the main reason he would t want to sign a longer deal.

JFC YEAHHHHH SERIOUSLY...when he experienced how dysfunctional it was...just because he's a Temple guy is what got him in the door not what kept him around but flame away.

The breaking point was the Miami game when the entire coaching staff was more concerned about their bye week trip then the game.

Not taking away from Reddick but the Philly D-line is loaded and there really isn't a way to help the line out with chips and double teams without leaving one of phillys studs open. The have like an absurd amount of sacks on defense as a whole.

Burns doesn't have that luxury. 

I am and will forever be grateful (and have zero regrets) that we got a top-3 all-time LB (possibly top-5 defensive player all time) in Kuechly in 2012, but Fletcher Cox has had himself a HOF career and could grab his second SB this season.  I remember wanting him soooo bad in that draft so it's cool to see him still going strong and leading that defense.

One of the most unheralded D-lineman in the entire league IMO.

Coaching 101 with replay. Call a TO to give yourself more time with flag in hand and delay by talking to officials. Challenge play and refs give TO back. If Shanahan's replay team tells him it is a catch, then use the TO to regroup the defense.

The challenge would get called and the review would overturn the catch. Leads to a punt and no score for the Eagles. Shanahan messed up bad on that one.

I hear you, but It was a blown call and a gift.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      It's funny how the teams with the great QBs stay at or near the top of the league every season.  Yes it is a team game, but the QB has the biggest impact in most NFL football games.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By d-dave · Posted

      Look, no one is ever a perfect player.  Since the QB handles the ball on 100% of plays offensively (unless there's a direct snap to a RB or something), I can absolutely see where they get an outsized blame and gain from what happens at any given snap of a football game.   Theoretically, there shouldn't even be a stat or idea to a 4th quarter comeback or game winning drive because you should already have done that during the game.  Losers!  Right?  Just because you win late doesn't take away the fact you tried to lose the game for your team! I'm not a fan of that opinion, but again, I'm just a moron with a keyboard.   Bryce has limited tools.  Bryce has not inspired the same level of confidence in us as Cam Newton did in year 3.  I certainly get that.  We traded a TON of assets to get Bryce, and we still suck.  (I mean, since we've lost games, we're losers right?) I completely understand that some fans are just unhappy with a limited QB and a team that isn't performing well, unless the other teams are worse losers than we are. I will say this:  Bryce will fight until the end.  Sure, he's has some real loser football.   But in close games, he's doing his best to comeback (even against a winner of prevent D). Now is it better or worse if your QB plays their best ball in the first half and sucks 2nd half so long as they finish with 300 yards, 3 TDs for your fantasy points? Who said stats are for winners anyway?  The Panthers and Bryce has a long way to go.  I'm enjoying the winning right now.  Though I do start each game thinking "how will we fug this up today?" Because it's been such a poo show in the Tepper era.  Will he prove to be a legit starting NFL QB?  Maybe not here as evidence by our record with QBs who were high draft picks.

      Ive never liked the term game winning drives because they include games where the QB was part of or was the reason the team was behind in the first place. Ive been arguing against this stat since the Delhomme years. It should only count when the QB is out of the equation of reasons why the team fell behind in the first place and is at least half the reason why he led the last drive to give them a lead. It shouldnt count if they just hand it off most of the time and the RB is on fire and they go down and score a TD or FG.
