Last night's Packers v 49ers OMG.

PA-PLAYA

A hard fought win by the Birds. To go into KC and come away with the win leaves little room for criticism.

We need Goedert back in the lineup though.

Either of those guys catch the ball, it's probably a different outcome.

If Mahomes doesn't massively underthrow that pass in the end zone that turned in to an INT it's probably a different outcome.

Great game. Went to bed when it was 17-7. Nice comeback win for the Eagles. Saw the highlights this morning. A couple of takes. Watson should've caught that pass. Not an easy catch, but it was a catchable pass. And Kelsey's fumble hurt bigtime.

Sneakylong Watson should've caught that pass.

You'll have to be more specific. He douched a lot of passes last night. So many in fact that I wondered why he had a red helmet on. Several of his misses could have been game changing.
I'm the coach....I yank people like that. Along with that olineman that won't learn how to stand still. He'd be gone completely after the 2nd time, which iirc, was in the very 1st game of the season. And every game since.

Since it was on replay this morning I'm not sure. It was from their own 20 to the Eagles 40. He was covered pretty well, but got both hands on the ball.

Valdez-Scantling #11 dropped a bomb late in the 4th quarter as well that was catchable. Tough catch, but catchable.
Regarding Justin Watson. Tom Brady gave up on him in Tampa Bay. So there's that as well.

Just one game. Time for the next opponent.

See where Travis Kelsey says he thinks about retirement a lot. Same age as Rob Gronkowski. 34.

Let him come play with his brother in Philly. We'll take him. 👍

garyt1957 that was a trbl pass.

professor

garyt1957 How many years ago was that? And Carson Wentz was never Joe Burrow.

5 years ago - 20017 season. He was the front-runner for MVP. In that year he far surpassed anything Joe Burrow has accomplished. Think what you will but that's the reality of that year.

rsvman2

professor Yes, as bad as he is now, at one time he was frequently mentioned as one of the top QBs in the league.

It's a mystery what happened to him. He had all the tools and played ar a very high level, and now he's absolutely abysmal. I would rather have Zach Wilson than him.

There has to be a psychological problem. Nobody falls from grace that hard and that far from physical issues unless they have a life-altering type of injury.

I know what year it was. My point was how often does that happen? Once? Once every 25 years?

professor In that year he far surpassed anything Joe Burrow has accomplished.

Wentz had a 101.9 rating that year. Burrow has only played 4 years and already has a 108.0 rating and a 100.8 so Wentz certainly didn't do anything that far surpassed anything Burrow has done. And Burrow actually led his team to playoff wins and a Super Bowl, something Wentz never did.

Game balls to D'andre Swift, DeVonta Smith, and Defensive Coordinator Sean Desai for the halftime adjustments. One helluva a second half. - threw a shut-out.

What’s the deal with Kyler Murray in Arizona anyway? Do they want him next year or are they moving on?

It would be pretty expensive for the Cardinals to move on from Murray, as that big extension that he signed only starts next year (this year is the 5th-year option year of his rookie contract) - according to Over the Cap, the dead cap hit if he's traded in the offseason would be over $50m. It will be interesting to see how the Cardinals approach the offseason if they end up with a pick at or near the top of the draft, particularly with two highly-rated QBs expected to be available.

Yes, he lost his shit after his injury. He became jealous of Foles' success, was involved in a scuffle with teammates in the locker room as he put himself ahead of the team's success (which oddly he didn't like), and got called out. Classic diva, his success went to his head.

"Well my fall from grace was a sight to see"
"Bad turned to worse and worse turned to misery"

He will be out of the league soon...

rsvman2 It's a mystery what happened to him.

He lost his confidence. He hasn't got it back and maybe never will.
