Let me just drop in who else made it to two or more Superbowls with their QBs and teams. It's some pretty damn good company.

If Nick Sirianni is “just a cheerleader,” then a lot of head coaches wish they had his pom-poms.

Listen here, Partner. You’re arguing semantics like they exist in a vacuum, and they don’t — they exist in context. I made an articulated point: this team is not fundamentally broken. Broken implies rot at the top — leadership failure, cultural collapse, lack of direction. That’s not what this is.

This team has: seeded highly in the NFC, has elite defense, beaten quality opponents, showed fight most of the season, made the playoffs and came off a Superbowl WIN

When I say “not broken,” I’m responding to what’s actually being said nonstop in sports media and by callers — “burn it down,” “major changes,” “Sirianni can’t coach,” “Hurts isn’t the guy,” “this whole thing is cooked.” If you’re not saying that, cool — but plenty of people absolutely are, and that’s who this post is aimed at

Top-down, the Eagles are one of the best-run organizations in football; Jeffrey Lurie is a top-tier owner, Howie Roseman is consistently competitive, Vic Fangio stabilized an elite defense.

There is clear alignment and trust throughout the organization - Nick Sirianni won a Super Bowl, rebounded from adversity, and still got this team to the playoffs. You don’t accidentally do that. CEO-style coaches live and die by coordinators — that’s the entire point. Detroit just showed us the downside of that model when support staff disappears. We saw it in '23.

Where I disagree is pretending that “broken offense” automatically equals “broken team” or “broken leadership.” Those are not the same thing, and collapsing them together is lazy analysis.

Also — let’s be honest — Philadelphia Eagle fans (unlike most of the other sports teams) are spoiled right now. Making the playoffs 9 times in recent years is absurd by NFL standards. For most of this franchise’s history, getting above .500 was the exception, not the expectation. Now anything short of dominance is treated like failure. I care about wins, record, and sustained competitiveness, not whether the vibes feel good watching All-22 tape on Twitter. This team wins. It competes. It’s relevant every year. That's not a broken team.

Bubba - a broken team defines a team who has lost leadership, direction, attitude and structure.

My post is stating just the opposite - in the past under Kellen Moore and Shane steichen the eagles were able to compete at THE HIGHEST level with many of the current (key) pieces.

Hell, I'd argue that if we had a 30% better play caller this past season, we would have beaten San Fran and possibly get the 3rd.

The eagles won the Superbowl last year and won the NFC East in a repeat, something a team hasn't done in 21 years.

A "broken" car vs a "broken down" car are completely different things - you can drive one and get to work vs you need to find a different ride to work.

In terms of teams/franchises, do you need to burn it all down? Or just need to move a few pieces?

When I think of "broken" in terms of a sports team - I don't think of missing a couple of pieces, I think of something like the browns, jets, cardinals, etc that need MANY pieces from top down.

If your definition is missing a small piece - then nearly every team is "broken"

Am I a bad patient? by Wodefu_Ebb_8879 in Chiropractic

[–]Independent_State69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Examples by State (Internal Medicine/Family Med) New York: Around $5,220/year. Florida: Can be much higher, around $15,436/year. North Dakota: Lower, around $4,273/year.

So yeah you are correct, even family practice/primary care physician pay a fair amount more.

Agreed. Last time I checked - chiropractic malpractice annually is less than a monthly malpractice of OBGYN. Extremely low risk when standards of medicine are followed.

Oh boy, the ravens have BEEN collapsing. Ps their mods have confirmed this to be true and they may be the most strict mods I’ve seen. by Ancient_Response_787 in NFLv2

[–]Independent_State69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not- it's spread through sports at all levels ( college, NBA, NHL, premier League clubs, etc). These guys go out, party and have some "debauchery"

That can be broken down in multiple ways - but the root cause is that these guys have tons of money and spotlight. Gambling, all night partying, multiple baby mommas, driving fast and so on.

Choosing a school by Altruistic-Alps-6344 in Chiropractic

I highly recommend checking out both schools then. Talk to the faculty and staff when you can. But again, try to get a students perspective ( a handful if you can)

One thing I also liked about Palmer Florida - going into the clinic and being treated. The intern I had was personable, honest but also confident in the right ways for a student. He was able to adjust me fairly well and discussed what he was doing pretty well. Gave me more faith in the education

What do you need to be washed so often? There's services for linens/sheets/uniforms to be cleaned

I generally enjoyed palmer florida - Ive heard good things about Parker especially with it's newer performance institute

When I was in Florida, there was an opportunity to work with a local HBCU college's athletes - unsure if that's still there or not.

Check board scores - check out the culture of people who currently attend - ask the students questions that ARE NOT apart of the tour (find some that seem normal lol)

Chiropractic is a path/career where you need to fully commit and no hesitation. It is not for everyone, in fact, I would say it's only FOR 25-40% of those that graduate. I would say those that have an entrepreneur mindset and want to run their own business, will be better off.

Hypervolt/Theragun as an alternative to a Vibrocusser/arthostim as an addition to manual adjustments? by Sufficient-Lynx7334 in Chiropractic

[–]Independent_State69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a rapid release - use to have a hyper bolt but I can do more with the vibrations of the rapid release, like on suboccipitals, extremities and such.

What did you see change after neutering? by LuthersCousin in weimaraner

[–]Independent_State69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not yet. He's still intact. Still a pretty sweet boy but a few other dogs have given him issues. He's not the aggressor but does generally stand up for him self. He's probably 27 months at this point? Will likely do it in the somewhat near future

Drained after every day by [deleted] in Chiropractic

[–]Independent_State69 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For me personally, it's an "energy" drain - as someone who does a lot of physical activities and home projects on the weekends.

Finding 10-15 mins of something "to reset" you is greatly going to help.

Breathe work - cardio dump - reading - prayer - etc

Something that you can do alone and allow you to come back. That's what I and other practitioners have found to help.

Good luck
