    I have this "history of the Eagles" DVD. It ends at literally the worst possible time - after losing to Carolina in the NFC Championship Game. The franchise still had only been to one Super Bowl.

    Sorely in need of updating.

    Bummer that Berman is leaving PHLY, and most importantly the podcast.

    Congrats to the Allens for the big Philly Hall of Fame weekend.

    Here's an Eric Allen highlight reel from the PHLY email: 

    My notes:
    • John Madden saying "I don't know why you'd throw at Eric Allen. I'd throw somewhere else." Yeah man, like at Toast Izel Jenkins.
    • That ridiculous pick six vs. the Jets in 1993, the most exciting September in Eagles history. Don't look up the rest of the season.
    • The "field" at The Vet was an abject disgrace.
    • Still furious that fucker Braman let that whole defense fly off. Fuck that guy forever.

    The CB position really seems concerning. Jamarr Chase just took Ringo to school - like kindergarten.

    I think it was the fixer maybe? Someone made one of the worst arguments ever in here about how worthless the back up quarterback position was years ago....ironically like a year two before the Eagles won the Super Bowl... with a back up quarterback winning MVP. lol

    Anywho......our back up right now could possibly start for half the league. God bless you Howie Roseman. We likely have a top tier first round pick coming our way next year and the best safety blanket in the league this year should Jalen go down. 


    From the great Zach Berman, in his final PHLY post this morning:



    1. Tanner McKee is a starting-caliber backup quarterback

    The McKee hype has been warranted this summer, and it was cemented by McKee going 20 of 25 for 252 yards and two touchdowns (plus a Tush Push touchdown) while playing into the third quarter. He started the game against the Bengals’ starting defense (while playing with mostly the Eagles’ reserves), and you would not have known the discrepancy. He was decisive and efficient, and he put the ball up for his teammates to make a play. The 27-yard deep ball to Johnny Wilson was an example. His touchdown pass to Darius Cooper at the end of the half was placed in the perfect spot.

    “It felt good, felt like we were moving the ball, which is always fun,” McKee said. “There are things that like, ‘Oh man, I missed that’ or whatever. But overall, moved the ball well, had a lot of guys that made great plays. So the feeling is good.”

    The Eagles prioritize the No. 2 quarterback spot. Jeffrey Lurie once said he considers the second quarterback one of the most important parts of a successful organization. There was a sentiment that the Eagles might have been showcasing McKee; I don’t see it that way. They could have moved McKee in March or April — there was interest elsewhere then, and the Eagles traded Kenny Pickett to have McKee as the backup quarterback this year. He could indeed start on other teams in the NFL, but the Eagles would be more inclined to keep McKee and then perhaps trade him after the season. There’s too much value for a Super Bowl-caliber team to have a backup quarterback who can the offense like him. 

    If somebody offered a first-round pick, could that change? Presumably so. But this was not a matter of showcasing McKee to other teams. They showcased their starting-caliber No. 2 quarterback to Eagles fans. 

    And perhaps McKee showcased him to the Madden ratings. That 61 rating is too low.

    ” We’ll let them decide, but I’ve had a lot of people come up to me and be like, ‘Hey, nice job 61’ or whatever it was,” McKee said. “So yeah, it’s been a funny joke going around.”

    If you managed to find The Roku Channel yesterday, that's also where you can watch the Eagles 2024 yearbook video.

    Remember when they made those for all the teams?
