It wouldn't matter if it was, TBH. It rings hollow unless Philly wins a SB.

Not really. It's a team sport. You win as a team and lose as a team. The QB pretty much is the most important player on the field, and affects and effects the game positively or negatively. If Daniels plays out of his mind, that doesn't cast a negative light on Barkley or his acquisition by the Eagles.

I REALLY hope so. Tbh I’m not sold on Morgan either. He needs to have a really good draft after last years disaster draft. 

Agree 100%. At this point it's tough to argue that our 1st and 2nd round picks weren't drafted too high. Whether it's Tepper, the GM, or the scouts, the front office has made some head scratching decisions in the last few years.

what a fugin bummer.  especially considering how good he looked.  maybe after a much improved 2025 season he will be the cherry on top heading into 2026 making a considerable playoff push

How good he looked? 22 yards on 9 attempts and 3 catches for 23 yards is all he did. We barely saw him and I don’t think we can say he looked really good. 3.8 yards per touch on limited touches isn’t flashing anything. We won’t see him until 2026, so who knows what we have and how long he’ll last.

I agree with some of these comments. Why did we wait until 1/18 to have surgery when he was hurt on 12/8? 42 days seems long. Pretty much seems like that guarantees no play in 2025. 

He doesn't need to play in 2025. And maybe not 2026 either from what I've read. This is but one peer-reviewed selection:

 

 "A devastating complication of returning to sport following ACL reconstruction (ACLR) is a second ACL injury. Strong evidence now indicates that younger, more active athletes are at particularly high risk for a second ACL injury and this risk is greatest within the first two years following ACLR."

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5226931/

 

 

Regarding your first question...

"The optimal timing of ACLR is an important clinical decision that affects patient outcomes significantly. Even though there is no consensus in the literature, there are some trends regarding timing of ACLR. Various authors suggest that ACLR be performed at least 3 weeks after injury in order to avoid arthrofibrosis. More important than time alone, objective criteria including perioperative swelling, edema, hyperthermia, and ROM are important indicators of when surgery should be performed."

    • Will say, as I've dug into things, Mike Green is absolutely legit.   There are only 3 appropriately-sized guys in this class with over a 20% PR win rate, 99 percentile PR skills: Abdul Carter, James Pierce, & Mike Green.  All 3 of those guys are 3-4 molds, but not undersized or poor in run-d grade by any means. Will say, Pierce would not be a bad option at 8 if Graham IDL & Johnson DB are gone.  Those 3 are the top.  I find it hard to dispute.  Gillette arguably falls into this category, but his run-d isn't at their level or else he'd be viewed much higher in this class.   Then comes the appeal of Jalon Walker who's this offball/edge hybrid.  Overall, just a stud football player. Then there's the consistent, hard-nose, above average type in Sawyer.  Nothing flashy, but he's a known commodity, seems like a dude primed to join an upper midwest team.   But the guys floating around 10% PR win rates that aren't necessarily stud run defenders, I just don't want much part of.  Mykel, Shermar, Kennard are the types that worry me.   Now, the pass rush specialists, give me those guys like JT, Princely (stud), Donavon Ez in R2-4...instantly insert them into our sub packages, PR downs and let them cook.   Some really interesting options.     
    • Not a single one of these signings hurts us, or even costs us much, but it gives these guys a reason to stay in shape and keep working toward making a team. Sounds like a few guys who need to be part of a reclamation project and maybe we will find a diamond in the rough there. Sounds like some good, lower cost options for back-up O-line there. I wonder if the player from Ghana would count as a foreign investment player and allow us to keep an extra guy on the roster. That could be really handy, if I am correct about those rules.
    • Finally.  I've been waiting days for someone to make this joke.
