Re: Around the NFL week 17
Our youngest son got his first varsity start at RB against Watson when Deshaun played high school ball at Gainesville HS (Georgia). We beat him that night but it was clear he was special and he still gives back to his former high school (uni's, etc.). Good dude but can't root for him as Titans are my 2nd fav team aside from the Redskins.

Re: Around the NFL week 17
Watson just had a hell of a year. One of the networks put up his numbers last night and I almost fell out of my chair. They just got rid of Hopkins, Fuller is always hurt and he almost throws for 5,000, 33 td's, 7 ints, 112 rating, 70% completion. Just ridiculous.

Re: Around the NFL week 17
Didn't see many of them but I'd say if you're name isn't Deshaun Watson, you probably don't have a guaranteed roster spot next year. Kind of the reverse of WFT; great QB with next to no supporting cast and a D that sucked.

Re: Around the NFL week 17
The Eagles are a fucking disgrace. Peterson and the GM should apologize to the fans for that display last night.
Their org is a dysfunctional mess. Wentz benched after a big contract...DC taking a year off? The Eagles fans should shut the fuck up I’m glad we don’t have a loser of a coach like Peterson.

Re: Around the NFL week 17
Money implications of moving Wentz:
@AndrewBrandt Dead money charge if Eagles or 49ers moved on from: Carson Wentz: $66 million ($34 million if traded) Jimmy Garoppolo: $2.8 million

Re: Around the NFL week 17
The Eagles just need to regroup. Wentz has played as good as anyone and has played at a MVP level before he got hurt. You just paid him a boatload of money. Let things calm down, come back and coach him up. You can't give up on him after one bad year.

Re: Around the NFL week 17
Losing Schwartz is gonna be huge for that defense. They don’t have a ton of talent outside the dline and he was able to scheme up to keep them in a lot of games.

Re: Around the NFL week 17
Not saying you're wrong per see, but what has Wentz actually done? He's 35-32-1 and has an overall rating of 89.2 across 5 seasons, and only managed to play 2 full seasons. You're supposed to improve the longer you play, not regress; he looked awful this year, not just bad. Best thing for him would be to move on (Colts?) but that contract is an albatross for Philly, and might turn out to be one for him too.

Re: Around the NFL week 17
Well, that's Gase, Marrone and Lynn sacked so far. 5 jobs available now. I'd honestly be surprised if anyone else gets the boot, but I bet Pederson is a bit worried.

Re: Around the NFL week 17
He sure wasn't coaching like he was worried about his job

Re: Around the NFL week 17
Pederson has already been told he is safe and probably got the ownership's blessing to pull Hurts out to avoid a QB controversy.
