"Flower Power In The Jalen Hurts Era" *2021 Philadelphia Eagles Season Thread*

[mikishere]

gotta give a lot of credit to gannon the past 2 weeks after the shyt we've been pilling on him all season. loved all the 3rd down blitzes and pressure looks throughout the game. really curious to see how this defense and playcalling looks against heinicke and daniel jones who are a little bit better than seimian/bridgewater

This off season will be interesting cause what if Kelce decides that he wants to continue playing?

We gonna have a good problem with a log jam with dikkerson/semu/brooks and someone like Driscoll who's been solid since filling in

Based on Kelce's contract, I'm not sure it matters if he decided to return or not. Unless there is language in there that can nullify this wild shyt.

Kelce's contract currently runs through the 2022 season, per Over The Cap, paying the four-time Pro Bowler $5.6 million in 2021 and $5.9 million in 2022. But Fowler reported Tuesday that both sides agreed this offseason that if Kelce isn't cut or retired by June 2, 2022, the Eagles will be required to pay Kelce something like $30 million. In other words, as Fowler put it, "it's just understood that he's probably gonna play one more year there."

That was already the expectation in Philly, where Kelce has openly contemplated retirement for several years. But to have it built into the contract suggests 2021 will, in fact, be the lineman's final go-round, barring another renegotiation. Why? Because in the event Kelce is released, he'll likely also retire in order to finish his career with his original team. The "poison pill" essentially also negates those 2022 financials, making Kelce's current deal more of a one-year pact.

[Controversy]

Not even saying it's a bad thing if it happens, but I guarantee at least one of those picks will be traded out of the first round. Which I'd actually be good with.

More depth on the OL, and go hard on Defense for the remaining picks. Any upgrades/depth on skill positions should be addressed in free agency.

I would trade our pick for a pick later in the first + future first

I wouldn't even be mad at a high 2nd and a future first rounder

There are WR2 options in Free Agency that I wouldn't mind the Eagles taking a shot at - Allen Robinson, DJ Chark, Courtland Sutton (if the Broncos don't re-sign him). A bigger-bodied guy. It's a need, because as good as he is, Devonta and Quez are never going to be a contested catch or RZ threats. A bigger, physical WR completes the group. But I wouldn't use a 1st there, either.

Sutton off the table. Mike Williams is my dream scenario but it's a huge gamble. Ton of talent and production when he's healthy but he's always dealing with an injury, it could turn into a horrible contract quickly depending on where the numbers reach

Alshon 2.0

Would be a 4.8 40 y2 of the contract, 4.9 by y3

I was listening to a podcast where they discussed this. They can always restructured the deal or flat out release Kelce, no team will claim him under those terms and they can agree on a full new 1 yr/2yr deal.

Coming off a Int, fumble recovery game

And shout-out to Gannon and Sirianni. When Dougie P was here he never dared to fukk with Schwartz defense at all and dude wouldnt ever take out his favourites

They had Wilson and Singleton start the year as the starters and they weren't afraid to put in TJ and Taylor when they both werent working out

If Schwartz was still here, Nate Gerry would somehow still be the starting linebacker .

QBR is the best QB metric out there

How is a guy with stats that good so low in QBR? Bc they don't put as much weight to completing passes down 21 bc the impact on winning atp is lower.

I'm not worried about no other young QB except the one that plays for my team...he keeps making the same mistakes...he's not improving...he got worse each start last yr and the same so far this season

throwing for 115 yds against a terrible secondary is inexcusable...I watch every game and all his stats are misleading

he's not all that accurate, arm strength is lacking, happy feet, no poise in the pocket, takes off (to the right almost always) when first read isn't open, no anticipation, makes bad decisions, doesn't recognize blitzes pre-snap, doesn't have good command of the offense

This is what I see...Against SF, KC, Dal, Carolina, and TB, I saw a backup at best...not a franchise QB

His only saving grace is scrambling

Its almost a miracle if that's all Howard has.

That looked really ugly and potentially debilitating yesterday

Anything short of Davante Adams, I don’t think they should throw money at wide receiver. I rather them draft somebody then get locked into a deal with a tier two type wideout

 

[gangreen]

damn, I was hoping for better news, I really like Jordan Howard these past three weeks.

I don’t like Miles Sanders running style in this offense.


hopefully Boston Scott can continue to terrorize the giants

 

[Leasy]

Hopefully we see Boston Scott get enough carries and in the passing game. The NY Giant killer
