That may be the weirdest QB/ backup pairing I can remember, if there is anyone who is the polar opposite of Hurts it must be Flacco, can they seriously be expected to run the same offense?

Eagles also just lost Vinny Curry,

They're downgrading everywhere.

Philly is in a tough spot and when the social media team is hyping up Flacco.. That says a lot

Man I really hope Flacco plays a ton this year lol

Like when we had Cousins and Griffin, you just call plays based on who's in the game. Any playbook has basic concepts and plays that any QB can run. Obviously with Flacco you lean more towards traditional drop back stuff, and with Hurts you can mix in more RPO, Read option, designed runs, etc.

I don't think Hurts is the answer

Why not?

He's 1-3 as a starter. He boasts a 52% completion percentage, 6 touchdowns, 4 interceptions, 9 fumbles, and a QBR of 41.0.

Seriously though, he has the tools and he's been good everywhere he's been. NFL is a different level obviously, but I think you can't really determine whether he's the guy or not until you see how he progresses with some talent around him for a year or so. Unfortunately for the Eagles, it doesn't appear that will be the case this year...

Yeah that being said he was the absolute bottom of the barrel for several weeks. Doesn’t usually bode well in any occupation.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Philly takes a QB first round

This is probably the best summary of the Deshaun Watson allegations I've seen yet. Long? yes, but worth it.

I still am not making any declarations of guilty or innocent, but I do find it hard to believe a top 5 NFL quarterback, in the me-too digital age where it's damn near impossible to keep things private, would be so stupid to prey on massage therapists who don't do happy endings (when it shouldn't be hard to find those that do). If he really is guilty I honestly can't believe he thought he would be able to get away with this. And if he's innocent I hope his reputation isn't being tarnished for life. Right now I lean towards guilty because he would just be next in a long line of famous people letting fame corrupt their moral code.

They don't have an answer on the roster. They should be absolute shit.

With our division though, who knows.

That would be hilarious and it would not surprise me if it happen.
