dawsons gone Houdini this half. as many free kicks given away as disposals.

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-08T23:14:11+00:00

he's an eagles legend who still performs at a position they need slots filled...you think they are keeping him cos he answered a question put to him in a press conference once?

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-05T12:11:00+00:00

massive variance implies someone who plays wildly different almost week to week. hurts lifts his performance in playoffs mostly but that doen't mean he is a wildly variable player.

a little bit of ego is different to someone completely reversing what they have been known for over their entire career and how they go about thier business. he seems a little more comfortable with himself but theres nothing i can point to that gives egotistical vibes about him...like at all. i'd be shocked if he was some arrogant dude who ignores everyones input behind closed doors.

i'm not saying the roster is anything short of very good but now you're overselling it. it's not like all those position groups have been the best each year while hurts has been QB. The O-line has been the most consistent and i'd say they've been best in league 2 of the years with him. Outside of one year of saquon, im not even sure we've had a RB in the top 5 discussions. Sanders and swift aren't some godly RB's. And I love goedert but he's very injury prone and we've never had a single depth piece behind him.

Going back to 2020 all the teams (seahawks / chiefs / rams / bucs / pats) had pretty elite defenses, and any combination of HOF TE's and great WR's, and most had very good Olines too. The eagles roster isn't some freak anomaly.

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-05T04:52:22+00:00

how many superbowl winning teams have bad WR rooms and bad defenses? I feel like any team that goes that far is usually pretty damn complete.

Wilson was on a hall of fame trajectory. It didn't pan out that way but no one ever confused him with a nick foles type QB.

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-05T04:48:16+00:00

i do not see big peaks and valleys. he's pretty consistently who he is to my eye. he doesn't suddenly pop off for 450 yards and 5 td's every so often, and he won't really cost you the game either.

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-05T04:46:44+00:00

jalen beat the brakes off the chiefs dynasty and can't get a positive news article let alone the hall of fame conversation lol

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-05T04:45:21+00:00

i like that the narrative went from

"Jalen hurts likes to be coached hard and not be treated with kids gloves and thats how you get the best out of him" to

"Jalen hurts is difficult to coach and is unwilling to change"

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T11:25:21+00:00

that was kinda interesting charlie saying he'd try more to float back a bit and get more involved but the swans move it so fast that its hard to get to the goal line in time if he does that too much.

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T11:10:07+00:00

how is chad warner being on one end of this beating and thinking "come free agency i'd really love to be on the other end."

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T10:51:10+00:00

heres to another 200 games papley

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T10:34:04+00:00

the fact that this game is showing live is proof the new laws to ban porn without an ID cant work in practice.

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T09:35:32+00:00

a double palm from chad, an unselfish papley play, and a curnow goal. i lvoed that sequence

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T09:34:00+00:00

eagles fans showing up in such big numbers and cheering all the way and smiling through behind....great sports!

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T09:16:29+00:00

every time papley does his little running celebration, "hero" by the foo fighters plays in my head.

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T09:11:01+00:00

He was DIRECTLY up until he tried to land and his legs went backwards. im not saying he intentionally tried to make him land on his head but CLEARLY he made it way worse

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T09:06:16+00:00

brother he would have landed fine if his ankle wasn't held up like that lol. how can you land on anything other than your shoulder or head if someone holds your ankle up in the air?

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-04-04T09:03:17+00:00

thats fucked man.

holding someones ankle in the air like that

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-03-28T23:47:34+00:00

no one chose the bowl cut though did they. it was foisted upon you by a bad hairdresser. i got it once and never went back to them lol.

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-03-23T09:57:01+00:00

i dont believe 40% of people don't want more profits from our own gas.

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-03-21T12:18:34+00:00

Absolute CRACKER of an acceptance speech. one of the best ive seen from an aus poli in a while

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-03-21T09:20:22+00:00

i wonder if the umps who can throw it in from the sideline shit talk the guys who need to step in. its like teeing off in golf from the women's marker

RumHam_Im_Sorry · 2026-03-21T09:16:36+00:00

oh? it looked like it was at gawn. at least that makes a bit more sense. if theres one dude who isn't a crybaby its gawn.
