Trust me when I say this, nobody in that locker room in Philly was happy with what happened. That's a great way to lose your team, if that's what the goal was.

I always liked Pederson, but he was a complete mess this season with his quarterbacks. Wentz should have been benched five weeks earlier and they could have won their division. If I was Jeffrey Lurie I'd fire his ass immediately.

Last night it felt like he was daring ownership to fire him. (even more than normal)

It's really done by formula. Bad luck on our part to always line up with them. This year looks like we're playing the whole NFC West and the AFC North. The divisions rotate. So every 3 years we play them because we play the NFC West.


Here’s a breakdown of how each team’s opponents are set:

Six games against divisional opponents — two games per team, one at home and one on the road.
Four games against teams from a division within its conference — two games at home and two on the road.
Four games against teams from a division in the other conference— two games at home and two on the road.
Two games against teams from the two remaining divisions in its own conference — one game at home and one on the road. Matchups are based on division ranking from the previous season.

What's a nice surprise is that we finally get them at home. Been going there forever it seems.

They can do what they want, but for the integrity of the game, one with playoff implications, they should at least play players that have a scintilla of a chance of success. That QB they threw in there was awful. I'd have no problem if they were being blown out, but it was a 4 pt game with a full quarter to go. Playing Hurts was still getting a young guy time.

The Viking game was meaningless, we should've got young guys in there more.

Hurts has mobility. They have arguably the worst offensive line in football. Once they stuck in Sudfeld they had no chance. Might have well have had Wentz in a uniform. After all, he's making $32-million a year.

What, was he looking at Sudfeld for the future?

Maybe to ensure Hurts didn't get injured. Having "the worse offensive line in football" lends credence to that.

Jefferson was the lone bright spot in this otherwise miserable season. He was not the receiver I wanted on draft day. I was 100% wrong. He’s a natural. He will be a star for a long time in this league..

I guess Cook being arguably the best back in the league could be considered a bright spot too. Less surprising but still a bright spot.

Other than that...nothing.

I’m never one of those guys but I was hoping the Vikings would lose yesterday. Not just for better draft position, but 6-10 is a slightly more justifiably fireable record and I’m bored with Zimmer. It’s not that I hate him or am all fired up about it. But this is entertainment and I’ve grown tired of his act. I’m ready to move on.
