Man, why have you given up on a guy with obvious character who endured 62 sacks and had obviously no offensive talent?  
 

I mean that was an amazingly impressive rookie season when look at the big picture 

This for me is the most glaring example of going to a team with good infrastructure and coaching.  Jordan Love sat 3 years and looks great.  Bryce in 3 years with a decent organization will be amazing 

Because he doesn't have NFL talent. He was a great college player. He seems like a truly decent guy. But none of that matters if you don't have NFL talent. You embarrassing yourself trying to claim that he had an "amazing impressive rookie season" isn't gonna change that.

Just stop, man. I'm embarrassed for you.

Bryce in three years is far more likely to be the QB coach at Alabama than he is to be an amazing NFL QB.

Bro he lacks arm talent.

 

Even if he had all the pieces around him the best we could hope for is Tua Jr.

 

Loved Bryce in college, but he's not the same QB at a better, faster level. It's okay not all QBs can be great at both levels. There is a clear ceiling with Bryce and it's not a very high ceiling either.

The ceiling is not the roof. The ceiling is the subfloor.

Man, the Iggles forum I went to was a trip. EVERYONE calling for Hurts to go! Some even calling him a midget lol. ALL want the head coach gone. Shocked they didn't run it more. They are livid. And they were in the SB last year!

I honestly think Hurts was probably significantly more hampered by injury than we know. His play fell off a cliff. He's always been inconsistent but his good was REALLY fuging good. When he was on he looked MVP caliber. We just haven't seen that in months. I think something was going on injury-wise. 

If I'm the Eagles I'm not doing anything drastic. I'm not firing my coach. I'm focusing on getting my QB healthy and I'm revamping the defensive staff. I'm probably looking to add a third receiver and a receiving threat at RB. A ridiculous percentage of their receiving stats were put up by their two starting WRs. Their #3 WR put up 164 yards. Their RBs combined for about 350 receiving yards total.

Eagles need Miles Sanders. It was clear how much they missed him.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
