*PHILADELPHIA EAGLES* Official 20-21 Regular Season Thread: WEEK 1 EAGLES vs Football Team 1pm ET

Been looking at the statistics of this team since the year is winding down. It's disgusting on offense, no one had a good year if we're being real.

We won't have a 1000 yard rusher or receiver :x,
DGB has only 12 more yards than Agholor and the same number of TD's yet got a fraction of the criticism
Jordan Matthews leads the team with a whopping 3 receiving TD's

It's amazing this team has a positive point differential somehow and beat some good teams like the Steelers and Falcons cuz Wentz was working with nothing all season
 
So Carson only needs 380 yds to break the franchise record for passing yards in a season.


If our wrs caught half those drops, he would've shattered that record by now

cuz dgb is a project that we acquired before the season started and agholor is our own 1st round bust that was suppose to be maclin replacement
 
Also, shoutout to Jenk man, dude has been a baller since he got here. Hoping he continues to play at this level when we make that run
 
Dude on Twitter @igglesnest is going in on djack
yup.. saw this.. that's why if we bring desean back, cant be for big money and cant be long term.. and hopefully having better culture guys his huge on the potential impact he could have in the lockeroom..

anyways for everyone who didn't see:

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

Bringing DeSean Jackson back would be a step in the wrong direction for the team "culture". He is a bad apple, undeniably. #Eagles

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

And I can only hope Howie Roseman remembers the behavior that got DeSean canned in the first place instead of rewarding him with millions.

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

DeSean is a loud, divisive voice in a locker room. He clashed with Jeremy Maclin. He lobbied for RG3 in WAS, opposing coaches.

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

DeSean was cut in part bc of his unwillingness to practice. He'd dog it, force J. Maehl to go in his place, throw tantrums when called out.

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

Everything I've heard from the Eagles ever indicated DeSean was not well liked amongst other WRs. He was babysat by Avant.

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

I do not want DeSean Jackson's egomaniac, diva, quitter personality anywhere near this team. He quit on the team in '11 & '12.

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

And DeSean only avoided legal trouble because of the fantastic, albeit often shady, Eagles security team bailing him out of situations.

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

The gang ties were real. He had a friend kidnapped as he left DeSean's house. Was under federal investigation for weapons charges when cut.

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

DeSean had his life threatened when he broke a bottle over a woman's head at a club by her brother. DeSean is nothing but a headache.

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

Keep DeSean away from the Eagles. He was a big part of the toxic, selfish culture that sunk Andy Reid at the end.

Kyle@IgglesNest 11h11 hours ago

The Eagles with a young QB and a head coach in the early part of his tenure have not built a culture able to withstand a DeSean influence.
 
Yea I'm hoping since he's a little older and a father now, maybe he's grown up from from whatever issues he previously had. Didn't hear much about any trouble he caused in Washington
 
I just hope they know going in, he is far from the solution.. a hired gun

and that means DGB gotta go, which obviously aint an issue

but for me, if we bring him in:

1) desean

2) jmatt

3) 1st round receiver (hopefully corey davis)

4) see if Vikings put a low enough tender on thielen.. OR see what trade market is for certain guys.. OR check out the price for stills or woods

5) then either mid to late round WR, treggs or turner

My WR1, Corey Davis, has the ability to win as both a big and small WR. He has Brandon Marshall-type talent and would fit with many teamspic.twitter.com/hY3Qfg6bZV

TDs (especially long ones) are extremely fluky for non-elite players. I wouldn't put too much stock into the year he's having. For his career he's averaging like 40 yards/game and 3.5 TDs. Not so good for a one trick pony deep threat.
 
I don't really want Desean back but on a friendly 2 year deal why not?

Corey Davis is who I'm eyeing in the draft, I'd also take Cook but prefer to grab a back later in the draft
 
I work for the Dolphins part time so I see Kenny Stills play often. He has the TD production this year but  a lot have been flukey plays. And he has worse issues with drops than JMatt imo.
 
2 headscratchimg articles i read.
Ertz is already among the best tes in the nfl
And
Eagles and nolan carroll have begun contract talks

Bennie Logan says he has no interest in testing the free agency market. #Eagles

the bigger issue is that he's just not a good 4-3 DE no matter what side he's againsthttps://twitter.com/ZBerm/status/814571568797978629  …

Dave Mangels added,

Zach Berman @ZBerm

In Barwin's first two years with the Eagles, he rushed against RT. During training camp, he was moved to other side. Big difference.

and for the zo gif of the day:

Barwin indicated he'd take a paycut to stay, he's a good guy especially for the community, but this is a business. Apparently he lives in the same hood as me

Unless we are moving him to SAM, I see zero point.. we need a 3rd down pure speed pass rusher, you can get those in the mid rounds

Bigger value is cap space or if we can work out a trade
 
I always see Barwin on 2nd Street in South Philly for the Mummers Parade every New Years :lol:.
