Can We All Finally Agree Donovan Needs To Burn In Hell (even you phreak)

[PhillyPhreak54]

Awesome, it is. I'm gonna email his ass. I love it how after one game (that 44-42 Bengals game in 97'), everyone was ready to annoint him as the QB of the future, but Kolb already sucks.

That's because we watched Ty Detmer and Rodney Peete toil around in the backfield for 1995, 1996 and early 1997. Eager for a sign of hope.

McNabb changed that and still has it.

But the cheapskates and retards in the FO wanna blow it up and start over.

Can you even imagine how much hate mail Hoying gets? It boggles the mind.

I just thanked him for wearing #7 because it saved me from buying a Mike Vick jersey. Stay tuned for a response.

I completely understand that...But, do you think the same is happening in reverse now? That we are all comfortable with consistently winning 10 games a year and making the playoffs that we're afraid of the unknown? Just sayin..

I am, yeah. I hesitate to give up a proven commodity for an unknown.

The proven part is not arguable, although some will chirp about it. But I firmly believe that if they deviated just a bit from their hard-line philosophy of over-30 means a casket is close andto not spend money on certain positions (hello, LBs!) they could win a SB with 5.

So I think the FO is comfortable with winning 10 games and saving money with a glimmer of hope at a SB run.

Drop the farging hammer, Reid. That's what I want.

I'll never argue that 5 is a proven QB. shtein, if he would  have won 1 SB, I think we'd be talking HOF one day. And I agree with a lot of what you said..especially the lack of spend allocated to certain positions thoughout the years - LB, FB till 43, WR till recently, etc. You know I've been a 5 guy since day 1, which is why I'm on the fence a bit about this, but if I had to be pushed one way, I'm falling onto the side of change. Maybe it was the back-to-back Dallas losses; maybe it was the Arizona heartbreaker...I dunno. There's nothing more I've wanted to see in sports over the years than for 5 to win one here, but I think that boat crashed in Phoenix last January.

My point is and always has been...Kolb should not have been a 2nd round draft pick. Its yet another case of the Eagles drafting someone too high (or at all) and laying unreasonable expectations on him.

lol expectations?

they let the guy watch games for four years and learn the system....its the exact thing they used to do in the league that everyone complains doesnt happen anymore because of the cap...im not sure if its possible to have had lower expectations than cobb has had on him...he has basically been asked to do nothing

as for his draft position he definitely was a second round grade because of who picked him...some teams had a 3rd round grade on him because of a worry that he was a system qb in college..but the system he fits best is the eagles...which is why they and some other teams had him graded in the 2nd

sure, but how about the Saints?  I figured when i matched those two up, they equal out to decent

You mean the game where they got their asses handed to them and they were passing against a prevent defense for a quarter and a half?

This is what we're hanging hopes on? lol

not that the saints or chiefs game means a thing in the big picture but the saints game was 17-13 at half and cobb was like 14-19 for 180 and a td

[PhillyGirl]

Can you all shut the farg up about the "puking" now?

[rjs246]

No.

[reese125]

ha...Im picturing Freddie Mitchell taking over the huddle calling the "throw it to me" play.

Um, did you read it? The quotes that "came out" just now are quotes from 6 years ago.

[ice grillin you]

i would rather he had puked than choked...thats a much bigger problem with him

anyway its not like he didnt really puke in college numerous times and at jacksonville...like saying he puked in the superbowl is some outlandish idea

You're right, it means nothing.
