Eotab....Trent Dilfer ring a bell? heck he wasn't no Brady...
Defense won that SB

eagles/redskins.. cmon skins.. they just scored.

lord wentz has less than a minute for a td

Well off to Buffalo to try try again ... Later

yess.. Wentz fumble...

Thank you Ryan Kerrigan!

Wentz gets stripped sacked to end the game. Looks like another week of, "Wentz sux" articles.

Don't know about Wentz but that right tackle sucks.

Yea.. id still trade all of our qbs and the first overall pick for Wentz. RG3 doesnt look like half the QB Wentz does on his worst day.

Way to SWEETEN that deal throwing in our QBs!

The announcers even said that's the 3rd RT that the Eagles have used this season (Lane Johnson normally starts there I think). The fact that they were even in the game shows that the Eagles are on the right track.

thanks washington. i think carolina winning helps too

Eagles reply:

You can have Wentz for the #1 overall pick
BUT, you have to keep your current Qb's.

Browns reply:
Aw heck no!

let's just say we take Malik Hooker (or someone thereof) with the Eagles pick ... so would we rather have RG3/Cody/? and Hooker or Wentz

I just took a quick look and so far SF is leading in the 3rd quarter. I'm rooting for SF to win #2.

Less than 2 mins to play in the 3rd Q

LOL.............We kept Payton over Gabriel. Payton gets suspended and Gabriel just caught another long TD pass. This time it was 64 yards.

"Things really feel different with this group."

When you consider what Gabriel's role on that team is suppose to be......this guy is straight up wrecking secondaries right now.

All Gabriel needed was some good QB play? Imagine that.

I was just thinking the same thing watching that TD.

49ers vs Jets is just abysmal. And yet I'm still jealous

Thank God I took Atlanta's D in Daily Fantasy. They have 26 pts. already. LOL..........that's huge!

People dog Wentz, but man, Goff is horrible.

The scary thing is that our "brain trust" liked Goff, but not Wentz. They also liked Kessler over Dak. They liked RGIII.

I yi yi yi.....

What scares me is that HUE and/or the FO could not see his talent ... they had hm all TC .. his speed and quickness JUMP OFF THE SCREEN AT U ..

WTF were they watching .... and he's YOUNG ...

He's the POSTER CHILD for what were looking for and we CUT HIM ....

That scares the EVER LIVING HELL OUT OF ME ... how in god's good name could they not see that ....

We let the POSTER CHILD of our plan go FREE ...

Maybe Hue liked him and didn't want to put him through this year ... *L* ..

Hue/FO should get a refferal bonus from Atlanta ..

Diam, we didn't try too hard to keep Gipson, Benji, and Schwartz either. All three are younger players w/some talent.

It's nice seeing the Seahawks getting kicked around.

Wow ... how did the 49ers lose ... thats HORRIBLE ...

Crap .. i thought we locked up the #1 pick with our L and there what i ASS-U-med was there W ...

Man .... what a bad day ... i still can't believe they blew that lead ...

I don't think the FO should be lambasted for Gabriel. They should be lambasted for a lot, but I don't think they should be lambasted for Gabriel. I think the Gabriel lambasting is just piling on. Here's why:

1. Gabriel was considered an outside WR here. And he was small. People are lamenting how we kept Hawkins over him, but they are two really different players. Hawkins is a prototypical slot receiver. Gabriel is more of an outside guy but smallish. I don't think the team wanted to go with small outside receivers.

2. He went to a team that was familiar with him and his skillset. He went to a team with the best OC in the game. A team who's O is really clicking. There are probably a number of players that could have filled that role that Gabriel is now filling.

3. This is the problem with regime changes. Gabriel was not their guy. They were going to keep their guy. Had Pettine been retained, Gabriel is probably still on this team. But then you still have Pettine.

4. From all accounts, Gabriel had a so-so training camp. Head to head with their guys, he was going to lose. Again, the team that picked him up was familiar with him.

I think we should protest the hell out of Berea for letting Schwartz, Mack, and Gipson walk. But I just can't pile on for Gabriel. A lot of things had to line up just right for Gabriel to be doing what he's doing right now.

Reminder: Somehow Andrew Hawkins is a captain on this team. That was who Gabriel had to replace on this team. It's unfair to pile onto the FO because of this.

Hawkins is basically worthless for us too

How is the FO blameless? They drafted 4 WRs and they all made the team. Gabriel was cut. You don't think the fact that this FO drafted those four guys and did not draft Gabriel influenced who was kept and who was released? LOL

I don't recall people being pissed when Gabriel got cut at the time. But now...livid!

I personally wasn't at TC even once ... much less everyday ....

If i didn't say I'd be nice ... this would be a much different response .. *L* ...

All I'll say for now since I handcuffed myself ....

That is one of the lamest defenses I've seen for this FO and/or Hue ... whoever decided to cut him, they did not evaluate his talent very well .. if it was a CONSESUS ... shame on all of them ..

He is the POSTER BOY for what we are building here and WE SHOWED him the door ...

BRILLIANT!!!!

Feel free to call it the "lamest whatever you'd like". My point is that only after Gabriel has a couple of good games in ATL, people are coming out of the woodwork complaining that we cut him. People were not (too my knowledge on here) visibly pissed off that he didn't make the roster over the summer. I think people knew he was a long shot to make the roster for several reasons, a couple being he had several concussions, dropped passes, and an underwhelming couple of years here. Not too mention he was part of a passed regime selection that can effect any player during a transition.

I called it a lame ass defense for the FO and/or Hue cause that what it is ...

I could care less what he did here his first two years ... I could care less whose regime he's a part of .... all i know is the Falcons are grateful we let him go and he's a part of there's now ... I imagine Taylor isn't to upset about it either ... nor is Schwartz .. there the POSTER CHILDS for our ineptness this year ...

Kid is YOUNG and can BALL ... they saw him EVERY DAY at TC ....

Everyday .... his QUICKNESS and SPEED jump off the screen at U ....

If they couldn't see that ... GOD HELP US ...

PS. I noticed and mentioned Gabriel on this board 3 - 4 weeks before he broke out .... he made a really nice catch that took great body control, hands and concentration ... didn't think much of it but it sure impressed the hell out of me ... over the next few weeks i watched him .. his quickness and speed were appearant ... then he BROKE OUT ON THE NATIONAL STAGE!!!

Garbage.

The horror. Folks waiting to see results before rushing to a judgement. Oh, the horror!!!

How ironic for you to post that.

Care to share where those comments live? I looked up in the cuts section, and there were a few post about him. Not one showed people upset that he was cut. People said they liked him and wished him well for the most part.

No, I was just showing you how worthless your post was when you said the very same thing in the Postgame Thoughts thread. LOL
