he is so going to kick Sam Hurd's ass

PoopyfaceMcGee · March 04, 2009, 08:03:31 PM

Are the Eagles looking at acquiring #1 receiver Sam Hurd?

I never even knew 6 time Pro-Bowler C Matt Birk from the Vikings was available for the Ravens to scoop

damn shame...I wish the Eagles hated J.Jackson as much as I do

the one thing I really agree with is "If you're an Eagles fan, you should be more concerned right now with the free agent reinforcements the Giants have brought in to strengthen an already potent defensive line." Jerry Reese basically said they would take Burress back if he isn't in jail as well.

As though the Giants' moves and the Eagles lack of moves exist in their own little vacuums...

The Giants/Cowboys/taterskins making moves have an impact on the Eagles 6 games a year. Sure Eagles fans should be worried about their moves. That doesn't happen completely independent of the fans being worried about the Eagles lack of moves. What a jackass.

They think they are Jedi's with the mind tricks but really are not.

Its the classic OMG the Giants/Cowboys added big time WR....we must pick up defenders to combat that move but NEVER EVER make a move like that ourselves!

pretty sure Andrews contract is bigger than that

Not per year. Warner probably got an offer from one of the teams he visited and went back to the Cardinals. Except even the cheap cards upped their offer, but the Eagles couldn't budge from 2/5 million.

WHy would you hate Jamaal Jackson?

He's not terrible. Nowhere near hate level.

From every account, the Eagles were never given a chance to match. So, no point.

That's the thing though; he should have been locked up before the FA period started.

Father Demon · March 04, 2009, 10:02:44 PM

Without a doubt, you're right... just pointing out something reported as fact.

I dont have to go into the overall run game explanation plus his 3rd and short blow-ups

but every time I watch him he is getting torched off the ball like a little bitch. He made the average opposing defensive lineman look way too good..not to mention when there was pressure on Mcnabb it was usually coming up the gut

theres a reason when the Eagles do decide to run its usually off-tackle. I would like to see an upgrade at that position...but I know it wont be happening unless they pull an Eagles special
