That’s also what I have said but everyone tells me I’m nuts. Some guy also called me an idiot when I expressed concern about Embiid’s heavy load always wearing him out by the time the playoffs come around. So I guess I don’t know shit.

Mike Mamula.

Yeah it’s crazy. MVP of the league and people want to trade him. I don’t know what it is about Philly fans that makes them want to hate their best player. Embiid, McNabb, Lindros, Mike Schmidt. It’s a team sport. Not tennis. No, Embiid had not killed it in the playoffs, because he has always been injured. Partly from having to carry the whole team on his back for 40 minutes a game for 82 games all season long, and he is always running on fumes when the playoffs come around. Plus it is a team sport. Embiid has never been on the best team. Heck, for most of his career BEN FUCKING SIMMONS had been the second best player on the team. You try to win a championship with Ben Simmons as your second best player.

How hard would it be to call a running play or two?

He’s the “break glass in case of emergency” center. Otherwise he will be the last man on the bench and only get rare garbage time minutes.

If I could only have a fraction of that cool….

Stub hub. You can check your exact seats and see if the one next to you is up for sale.

Cox tried to hold up.

silence

Ok, hehe, no he didn’t. Not at all.

It was worth the penalty.

Yeah no accident. Fletch was waiting for his chance to get even.

Yeah. That’s what we looked like a couple years ago when our receivers were Jalen Reagor and Travis Fulgham. Makes a big difference whether guys catch the ball or not. We need to not take that for granted.

Yeah. It seems inevitable that eventually these shortcomings will bite them. They very easily could have lost at least half their games. Think how many outcomes turned on one single play. Never seen anything like this.

Five years ago I would have loved him coming off the bench. But he’s too old now.

I’ll take Brogden. Good all around player. Not sold on Caruso and not sure why he is suddenly so over-hyped here.

Eagles are the better team and would 100% beat the Lions. However given remaining schedules there is a very good chance the Lions finish with a better record.

Reddit makes more sense if you think all posts come from someone 14 years old. (Maybe most do??)

2-3. Everyone thinks because they’ve been winning that means they’ll keep winning, and are unbeatable. But it’s more likely the reverse is true. The secondary is weak, they can’t run the ball, and they turn the ball over too much. Unless those things improve dramatically and quickly, they are vulnerable against good teams. Actually they are vulnerable to any team. They lost to the jets, needs overtime to beat the Redskins, were 6” from losing to Dallas. I hope they ball out as much as anyone. But they need to shore up some things.

Nope. Leave that in the past. Their current uniforms are great. Don’t change.

Honest question- if a player is on IR does it count against the cap? Or is it just active roster that counts?

He’s looked pretty friggin good both times against the Eagles.
