Some of yall live to say “I told you so.”
Fair enough, didn’t think of it that way. Wild to see people wanna stick with this “culture.”
Here’s the neat part: Sam Howell actually threw for 300 passing yards.
Why is this even a poll?
As much as some of you don’t want to hear it, teams generally aren’t tanking while they are still in playoff contention. Every player and every coach is fighting for their job. It would absolutely kill this sport if every team started to tank when they were 4-6.
Hear me out on Bowers:
- Kelce could have never made it big if it weren’t for a scheme that targeted TE alot. EB has that scheme.
- The Kyle Pitts experiment should consider that Atlanta doesn’t scheme for TE enough.
- Hockensen was a top TE in Detroit, gets traded, and then LaPorta is immediately a top TE. It’s because Detroit schemes enough for TE, so does EB.
- TEs generally still take 2-4 years to break out. There will be another top OL in the '25 draft. Our build isn’t just this draft. We could have a sophomore Bowers plus top OL talent again.
- We have plenty cap space to sign OL. Taking Bowers in the first doesn’t necessarily come at the cost of OL talent.
- TE ages well. Kelce is 34. Gronk retired at 33. Andrews is 28 and going strong. Grabbing Bowers with anticipation of a 10-12 year career just locks in consistency in a potential high-scoring position.
I’m so fucking hurt by this defense.
This is something an Eagles fan would say.
