Reasons you're sick of being an Eagles fan

[ice grillin you]

i wouldnt have had a problem with it if someone who actually plays had said it

you might not even be second string so you probably should not be talking at all much less making proclamations like that

the greatest part is he included himself when he coined the term. he needs to be taken out back and shot - along with about 47 other players and coaches now.

I think it's beyond fascinating that Andy Reid hasn't won shtein and he is still that ignorant in his answers to the media. He acts and feels like he owes nobody nothing, like fans aren't paying thousands of dollars to attend games and watch that crap on the field.

You mean to tell me Lurie cant call him in the office and say, "Listen Andy lets try and be just a little bit more thorough in your answers to at least appease the fans of this team. I know youre accustomed to dealing with these guys in your own way and it has "worked" in years past, but things are a little different now. Expectations of this team and most importantly us are at its highest ever, we paid a lot of money to get the players you wanted, and you're on a very bad 3 game skid. Show that you at least care, what you might to do to change your approach, and enough with the years past scripted answers."

Can't be that professional? farging Hoydas.

[DH]

I, for one, and god damn farging tired of hearing him blab on and on about how he has to do a better of putting his players in the right posit....blah blah blah.

How about putting your coaches in the right positions to succeed you fat, fat icehole?? Like an OL coach, coaching the OL. And a DC being a DC! Genius!

The Castillo thing is 10000% what sticks in my craw the most now, and will until he is fired and sent back to A&M-Kingsville. Hopefully today.

the disheartening thing about the defense is that they can put people in the right positions all they want and they still are going to get bullied and trucked all over the field because 1) they are small and 2) they suck

what good is it to put someone in a position to succeed if even if they are there they cant make a play

[charlie]

There are a lot of things that the eagles tire me out on.. but why do people care what is said during press conferences? You know what the answers are going to be... people are like beaten dogs.

[ice grillin you]

its not just what he says a lot of the time...its how he says it...being an ahole to people who are doing nothing more than their job is unbecoming...telling reporters not to ask certain questions or telling guys that completely reasonable questions are stupid is not a way to go about business and is not going to endear yourself to the fanbase

not answering questions and saying the same things over and over is merely annoying....but being a complete dick to the media and fans after horrible losses is infuriating...bill belichek can get away with it.....what the farg has andy reid ever won to justify how he treats people

[smeags]

everyday i wake up and reid is still the coach i want to kill a kitten.

^ bingo

David Akers should have put that on a sign instead of that Hoyda bullshtein thank you.

Funny thing about this whine fest is that we do it almost every year, where after a game or two we as fans are calling for Reids job then he somehow turns things around and they finish 12-4, 11-5 or some shtein.

Big difference now is everything is so farging disorganized from the new coaches to new/untalented players that Andy can't and wont hold onto the wheel.  I really think his personnel decisions this time will cost him his job. When you have an "all in" mentality from the guys above you better believe they're sending a message to you as a coach.

This team is soft and it starts at the top. I can't imagine as a head coach going into a season without a leader on both sides of the ball. How do you put a team together without a few players who lead by example and speak it and demand it from their fellow teammates. I knew all this hype would come back to bite them in the ass and the idiot Vince Young calling it the dream team was a huge mistake. Vick getting his 100Mil contract and publicly saying its championship time. Sorry Mike, whatever world you live in doesn't exist. You need a coach, you need a better oline and you need to focus on one game at a time and don't put so much pressure on yourself to win these games. He needs to step up as a leader and demand his team mates give in what he gives in.

This defense on paper looks so amazing but the scheme and coaching I think are just not matching up. They look amazing one series and then the next just look like a peewee team. There are so many issues I can't think of them all but the lack of commitment to the linebacker position has been a huge mistake for years on this team. Then this year they do the wide 9 and have arguably the worst linebacker group in the Reid's tenure, its a head in palm moment week in and week out. The DB's, I don't even want to talk about the DB's. Huge disappointment so far. Its pretty bad when Page is the best looking guy and he's a nobody.

The offense just looks like they don't know what to do. One minute they are flying down the field, then once they get into the redzone its like they forget how to play football. Short yardage situations are the worst I have ever seen. McCoy is not being utilized enough. Vick is forcing too many throws this year. Jackson can't catch. Maclin fumbles. Celek doesn't exist. Avant rarely is seen. Brown also doesn't get the ball enough(even though after yesterday i wish he was dead). The only bright spot on offense this year has been the oline playing way better than I could imagine. Not great, but decent.

Coach needs to sit everyone down and tell them to stop believing the hype. They need to focus on each week and improve the fundamentals big time. Hell I'd be more than willing to ship one of those high dollar DB's or WR's to get one real linebacker back there. I guess the fact of the matter is, nothing will change and this is Reid's head that has to roll and if this is what it takes then let the ship sink. I am more than done w Andy Reid.
