That's easily the worst part about last year. I don't want to share the untainted achievement of destroying Tomald Brady in the super bowl, twice.

But then the lovely rear end Eagles fart their way to a Super Bowl against old man Tomald who obviously lost a step.

Perhaps you forget that :mcnabb: would have beat him too but they were cheating.

I prefer to think of it as the Patriots have never beaten the NFC East in a Super Bowl in which they were not caught cheating.

First of all the Nick Foles thing was interesting. Second of all I'm sure players have tons more interesting things to say about stuff that we aren't able to notice, which was my point.

I'm sure players do have interesting tid bits. What I was saying is that those ones weren't particularly interesting

While Ertz deserved that appraisal earlier in his career, he's been smoke positive for around a season and a half now.

(Basically ever since Kempski wrote that article that absolutely destroyed him with video evidence)

Yeah basically all last year was praise for Ertz actually learning how to block. I'm sure he's not Jimmy Graham level bad but he's supposed to be passable now.

Here's the article I mentioned: Eagles need Zach Ertz to start playing like a tight end While it is about Ertz's lack of YAC rather than poor blocking it generally paints him as soft.

Players often pretend they don't read stuff like this, but Ertz was a different player after this. He fights for YAC and shows effort when blocking. And Ertz's agent not only read it, he got into a twitter war with the author: Zach Ertz’s Agent Got Real Mad at Jimmy Kempski on Twitter

Memories... it seems like only a year ago that some people in the NFC East thread freaked out because I said Ertz was a top 5 receiving tight end. (because it was a year ago)

I doubt we will see him in a uniform this year, but it's encouraging that they think he's too good to not get poached from the practice squad.

the Eagles could go 1-31 over the next two seasons and I would not give a gently caress. honestly, they won a Superbowl so everything from now until the NFL shuts down in 2031 is gravy. I'm just gonna have fun watching them play football, no anxiety or expectations. it's such a relaxing feeling

I'm not sure what they ever saw in this guy. It seemed like he was being billed as the next Darren Sproles but the only thing he had in common with Sproles was that he does not have NFL size. When you looked at his college tape, he did not seem to have great speed or any kind of special burst. He was a workhorse back. That he was able to do that at the college level at his size was impressive, but he was never going to be that in the NFL, and he wasn't going to magically turn into a speedy scat back just because he's small.
