Eagles tanking

Recommended Posts

The League has a brand to promote--you can decide to lose if it it helps your team--then it  becomes more about the politics and front office strategy than what happens on the field. It can KILL the league.   I would not be surprised if this did not come from the Eagles' front office---and if so, there is a trail of conspiracy to lose.  If the league knows this can be proven, they will have to take action-----

If they sweep this under the rug, it is complicity that confirms suspicions.  I do not think they can do it.  We shall see.

What makes this bad?  I wanted Rhule to play some backups today and I wanted the team to lose.  However, the Eagles deactivated starters.  Once you dress your team, you let them play and you try to win. But when they made plays, the coach got involved to make them lose--going for it on 4th down with a play that involved Hurts moving to his left---not a strength.  Not kicking a tying FG in the fourth Q---I am sure they thought they would be losing big time by then and they would not have to intervene.  Then they put in a third string QB who was terrible--and they knew he would be.  As the announcers pointed out, taking the run option away from the attack allowed WFT's awesome pass rush (Kerrigan, Sweat, Chase, etc) to tee off--and it was ugly.  Then the camera focuses on Hurts, who says, "This ain't right."  They should be investigated and the draft pick should be taken from them.

Tbf wasn’t Jalen playing terrible? Like 70 yards passing 40% completion an interception and a wide open miss td in the end zone?

We're you watching the game? The guy was running for his life. On his INT, the ball whizzed right past Zach Ertz who never even made a play on it. The same Zach Ertz who barely got out of his stance to try to block for the 3rd stringer on the final drive on 3rd down. He let that poor guy get blown up.
