Dart is way better than I thought, particularly his pocket presence and slight movements to evade the rush, but I'm still pretty skeptical overall.

We'll see how he looks going forward but he looks manic in how he plays, and sometimes it works out well like this week when you're a big underdog and playing free, and other times you turn it over 3 times against the shit ass Saints in a loss.

He got his bell rung, and there’s going to be a lot more of that in his future if he keeps playing this way. He’s not a big dude like Troy or a reflexive twitchy guy like Lamar who can take that punishment game in game out.

But he has something going with the energy he brings… youthful energy is great until it’s not.

Funny how we just saw the highlight of Charlie Waters calling out the energy the rookies brought in 1975 and how the vets fed off it. Thing is we added a dozen rookies in that famous draft, enough for it to sustain itself for years.

Dart, Skat, Nabers, Burns— some interesting pieces coming together in NY.

But eventually you have to attack with a real plan every week, not just wing it

He's also ran about 25-30 times over the last three games, that's never going to continue and we'll see if he can win with his arm passing the ball more than about 20 times a game with only a few runs here and there mixed in.

I do think their talent is kind of overlooked because of how shitty they've been the last 5-10 years, but they've had a lot of top 10 picks and you have a number of possible Pro Bowl types in Nabers, Carter, Burns, and of course Lawrence.

Their OL and "back 7" is still God awful though, and Skattebo is going to burn out quickly.

Really feel like the Eagles just have to trade AJ Brown for like a 4, they simply have no other choice.

She looks like she would say something like “let’s go hiking this weekend.”, and that sounds terrible.

…and then make you take an obsessive number of pictures as she looks off in the distance posing on a trail until you capture the right one

I said the same thing when he initially sent out that bible verse tweet....but Eagles fans I know said it was nothing and they weren't worried until it started affecting the locker room.

Well, here we are. :lol

Giants fans guzzling the Kool Aid...

Gonna be funny watching them get pissed and crash the next few weeks when they realize they aren't actually that good.
