imo they are trying to get him to blow up in the media so they can spin it as he isnt a good guy or he didnt really wanna be here

because right now you have the best FA on the market saying his number one choice by far is to stay in philly...and that aint gonna look good when they let him walk

All the more reason for him to keep playing nice.  I'm thinking that he's not telling the Eagles he wants to stay by sticking to this course, he's telling all the other teams that are looking at him:  see, I can play nice.

[General_Failure]

Guy's done nothing but play nice his entire career. He's going to get paid well for it now.

[ice grillin you]

just not by the eagles

[mussa]

wow. i have no confidence in a succesful team next yr...mostly because of the FO and coaches.

as long as the nfc remains a train wreck everyone has a chance to be successful depending on your definition...what they have no chance of is making the superbowl...

what im most concerned about is a huge step backwards...other than possibly at the PR/KR positions where can you make a realistic argument for an upgrade on this team...they arent getting any big free agents so that leaves them to rely on people like gocong considine bunkley avant  to make this team better...or if they strike gold with one of their draft picks this year

as i did in a post a few weeks ago do the plus minus thing as far as players leaving vs players coming into the starting lineup for next year...its not pretty

normally if you were getting rid of a player like dhani jones it would be cause for a parade...but the eagles replace him with chris gocong...who would have ever thought that you could possibly replace dhani jones in your lineup and be worse off

[Rome]

Right - because Gocong has already proven to be worse than Jones.

[SunMo]

it's your expectation he'll be better?

the guy has never played linebacker...ever, much less at the NFL level

Right - because Gocong has already proven to be worse than Jones.


how do you take my comment that gocong could POSSIBLY be worse than dhani and throw the word "proven" in italics

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I heard the Eagles are going to go hard after Luther "Shark" Lavay to replace Dhani Jones.

Of course, that's only if Daniel Bateman doesn't come available.  We all know they prefer to go white.

[rjs246]

Rome's irrational hatred of IGY is pretty hilarious.

[Rome]

I want to know why Gocong is being written off without so much as playing a regular season down, that's all.

No hate here, dude.

[ice grillin you]

the guy was a college division II defensive end who looked horrible in training camp last year...does that automatically write him off...of course not

but how about you give the reasons why you think he will be an upgrade

i have a feeling your only two reasons are 1) dhani sucks 2) because andy says so


and even if he ends up being an all pro im talking from the persepctive of today....can you give me a coherent legitimate argument for why the eagles will be significantly better next year than this....ill even give you an easier one and ask for an argument as to why they wont be significatly worse next year

Dhani = suck

Gocong = x

I'll take the known over the unknown any day of the week.  At least with Dhani, we know what kind of suck we're getting.  Gocong could very well be suck².  Or worse.
