Six games ago, Jalen Hurts won the Super Bowl with a different playcaller.

I stand by my overriding thesis, which is that Nick and his friends are just pretty dumb guys.

They don’t seem like they want to play. Everything is slow, half-assed, sloppy. I think this is an overused word, but they should absolutely be embarrassed by this effort.

That whole inning happens because an ump missed strike 3. Cool!

Does the TBS play-by-play guy ever stop speaking for one solitary second?

I previously interpreted this as a “we want to control the clock and take as much time on the ball as possible” approach. (Arguably nonsensical when you almost always have a talent advantage.) This is… something else.

If you read this article and ask yourself questions like “what is the author’s actual thesis” and “what evidence does the author actually use to support his thesis,” you won’t find anything like satisfactory answers. www.inquirer.com/eagles/bronc...

Fans who rationally post about what the team deserves or doesn't deserve are largely illegible to me. I don't care about merit. I want my team to win and when it's stolen from them, I do not care about the context.

You’ve gotta be kidding me.

Power run behind 3 WRs on 4th and 1, that's why Sean McVay is the greatest coach of all time.

Brady gleefully rooting for the Bucs at this point, as you’d expect.

Swooper!

Jordan Davis has been the best Eagles DL through 2.75 games.

Gotta get those Cameron Latu FB snaps. Just as important as AJ Brown targets.

Being driven insane already watching Nick Sirianni and his dopey friend try to manage a game.

TE is your shallowest offensive position, and your top one is out. So the solution is to... lean in to two-TE sets?

Collinsworth unlistenable barely 15 minutes into the season.

This is dumb football-guy nonsense. I do not think there is any chance the Eagles would play worse if they watched a five-minute ceremony where they were reminded how great it feels to win the Super Bowl and how much their fans will love them forever if they do it again.

I spoke at a press conference yesterday with my boss, the Philadelphia District Attorney, about the President’s threats to use military force in major U.S. cities. Some excerpts from WHYY’s coverage.

What an Ospreys @bowulf.bsky.social, @zberm.bsky.social, @fduffy.bsky.social, and even @ej-smith.bsky.social (and got to meet @sheilkapadia.bsky.social too)!

The Eagles thinking about replacing the Linc with a domed stadium is wasteful and pointless. Fans don't have to give in to the idea that this is compelled by modern economics. The team is making plenty of money, and they don't actually need to squeeze every dollar out of everyone in the city.

The Senate must reject Emil Bove's nomination to the federal bench. His reprehensible conduct at the Justice Department disqualifies him from a lifetime appointment as a federal judge.

Seeing as Emil Bove personally fired me from DOJ in retaliation for prosecuting January 6 rioters, I don’t think he should be confirmed to a lifetime seat as a federal judge. But that’s just me.

Krasner wins!

A noticeable investment in pyrotechnics since my last time here.

Still lots of ways this Phillies season could play out, but it is a huge advantage to have six competent big-league starters (and maybe a seventh coming in two months).

It isn't particularly surprising that, in a weak draft, the Eagles are not getting home run picks falling to them at the end of these Day 2 rounds.

Campbell has unreal charisma. Love it already.

If you’re going to draft a linebacker, have it be a complete alien

I am not sure what to make of (1) the well-sourced local beats uniformly mocking Walter Nolen to the Eagles, while (2) the national consensus seems to be him being pushed up into the top 20.

NBC's Phils tv production gets worse every season. Ricky Bo adds nothing. They talked over most of the pregame stuff and missed the first pitch. TMac won't stop yelling. Kruk is neither funny nor interesting. Maybe one more game before I fully switch over to the radio for the year.

I don’t know how to stop it, but the post-pandemic trend of anti-social fan behavior directed at the field needs to stop. A VAR call going against your team is not an excuse to chuck hot dogs on the field. Come on.

Average Schefter / RapSheet post: "[TEAM NAME] makes a big splash, signing [RANDOM PLAYER] to a contract negotiated by [NAME OF AGENT]. This was always the expected outcome, as I knew but you didn't. Another fantastic move by [TEAM NAME], doing what they always do."

The Union are back this weekend? My column on what to watch after an offseason of change. phillysoccerpage.net/2025/02/19/f...

Birds.

After a pretty miserable last ten days, “so happy I can’t sleep” is a pleasant change.

For posterity: I turned to my living room and called that play action bomb right before it happened. Go Birds.

First things first: make sure the Sodfather gets nowhere near New Orleans.

Another awesome outing today from the last four draft classes. 2024: Mitchell, DeJean, Hunt, even Shipley 2023: Carter, Smith, Steen, Ojomo 2022: Davis, Jurgens 2021: Smith, Dickerson, M. Williams, Gainwell

It would be awesome if Tony Romo would occasionally either (1) complete a full sentence or (2) be quiet for more than one non-consecutive second.

On the first day of free agency, the Eagles spent $17 million on a guy who doesn’t even play.

I have never been more sick of hearing about a middling player than I was hearing about Jordan Love this week.

Might be the first good pressure check in the Sirianni era!

Everything is a little too slow to develop in the passing game. Things looked good early when playing with quick game and tempo.

Vikings are not serious.

Is someone paying Schefter to fawningly tweet out every Detroit highlight?

This game is awesome.

Do enjoy McKee’s big-sleeves aesthetic, perfect for a third-stringer.
