Slay (
@bigplay24slay
) is easily one of the best corners in Eagles history and Howie getting him for a 3rd and a 5th round pick in 2020 was a flat out steal. Here is every pick of his since becoming an Eagles

People also forget Alonso was coming off a torn ACL the year before and didn’t even play that season prior.
So chip traded a 26 year old coming off a back to back 1600/1300 seasons for a LB coming off ACL and didn’t play for an entire year 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
There is this negative narrative questioning Jalen Hurts play based off his 2023 season but I feel that is being way over exaggerated. Lets focus on some facts of his season:
Passing + Rushing TDs: 2nd (tied)
Passing + Rushing Yards: 7th
PFF QB Ranking: 8th
ESPN QBR: 12th
With Nick Foles (
@NickFoles
) getting honored today let’s throwback to one of his most famous plays vs the Falcons in the 2017 playoffs when he should have been picked off but it bounced off a Falcons defenders knee and came down to Torrey Smith (
@TorreySmithWR
) for a big play

Kelly Greens
Throwback to 2019 vs the Falcons when Carson Wentz made one of his most crazy throws getting dragged down almost getting sacked only to make a hell of a play to Mack Hollins.
Did you remember DeVonta Smith first career catch was a TD vs the Falcons in 2021? It came on the Eagles opening drive of the 2021 season and Smith has proven to become a stud ever since.
With 59 days left until Eagles Week 1 shout out goes to Seth Joyner (
@sethjoyner
) who truly was ELITE.
In back to back All pros years 1991-1992 he put up numbers like this:
‘91: 110 total tackles, 6.5 sacks, 4 FF, 3 INTs
‘92: 122 total tackles, 6.5 sacks, 3 FF, 4 INTs
Brian Dawkins (
@BrianDawkins
) is almost every Eagles fans favorite player and for good reason. During his 16 year career he had:
Hall of Fame 2018
9 Pro Bowls
4 All Pros
37 Ints
26 Sacks
36 FF
4 TDs
Here are all of his career TDs ⬇️🦅💰

This is a laughable troll job attempt to mislead. Hurts is “12-20-1” without AJ I wasn’t aware a game Hurts had a tie in. Oh wait he didn’t, it was the 2020 Bengals game when Hurts was a backup qb so yeah let’s add in almsot a full season worth of losses from 2020 he literally

Time!
There are 4 players in team history to catch a TD pass from the Eagles last 3 QBs in Jalen Hurts, Carson Wentz and Nick Foles.
How many can you get right?
Jalen Hurts and Jabrill Pepper talking a little smack to each other with Jalen saying “I know what happened last time” in regards to a hit Peppers gave him.
Here is the hit he was referring to from week 1 last year:
@pheaglescentral
Tough question as most of these years the QB didn’t have a lot of come from behind wins but here is my breakdown:
2004 McNabb didn’t have any memorable come from behind wins and then was a disaster at the end of the SB so hard to say him with how that ended.
2010 Vick blew the
@Eagles
When are these 4 coming back?
1. 90s white on grey throwbacks which need to be back asap
2. Black top white bottoms they wore in 2004
3. Black top, green bottoms they were on the 2000s
4. Green on green which was early 2000s and I doubt we will ever see again
Speaking of former Giants who signed with the Eagles as a FA, do Eagles fans remember how good Walter Thurmond (
@WaltThurm3
) was in 2015?
In a rare good offseason move by Chip Kelly, Thurmond had a borderline pro bowl season as a do it all safety. He retired the following year
This was the moment where the Giants found out the Eagles signed Saquon Barkley and the Giants Owner John Mara is clearly disappointed while their GM Joe Schoen needs to convince himself he was priced out as he has claimed he couldn’t go above 12m when he’s paying Daniel Jones
Jahan Dotson (
@JahanDotson
) in his 2 games vs Eagles last year:
12 catches
135 yards
2 TDs
Welcome to Philly and looking forward to scoring TDs for Philly instead of against Philly.
⬇️🦅💰
The Eagles have had a long history of dual threat QBs with Jalen Hurts right now and McNabb and Vick previously but the 1st to do it was Randall Cunningham.
One of his best seasons was in his 1990 All Pro season when he was the MVP runner up and put up these numbers:
3,466

@donovanjmcnabb
You were a franchise changing pick for sure and don’t get the full credit you deserve from Philly as you are easily the best QB in franchise history. If you had better WR weapons in your eagles career your stats would have been better and I’m sure a SB victory (or more) would
The 2004 Dawkins hit is his most famous but another one vs the Falcons might have been his hardest. In the 2002 playoffs

Brian Westbrook (
@36westbrook

1,217 rushing yards

11 total TDs

Eagles/Bucs 2006, the Brian Westbrook (

My all time favorite Eagles/Bucs play was this 52 yard catch and run by Brian Westbrook in ‘06. For people who are still upset about the blown Falcons game this one was just as bad as the Eagles should have won after

4. AJ 1 handed TD vs commanders week 8
5. Slay pick 6 vs Pats week 1

@Philly_Laz
He was top 5 most of the year and then was the mvp favorite after the bills game. It switched after the 49ers lost and got worse from that point on
@DiBonaPFN
This is true for a 6th round pick only but here are a few others high picked rookies you could say that about:
2022 Reed Blankenship as an Undrafted FA
2016 Jalen Mills as a 7th rounder
2007 Brent Celek as a 5th rounder
Who’s going to make a defensive play tommorow vs the Saints like Cre'von LeBlanc (
@Strap_Ent
) did in the 2018 playoffs on the first play of the game?

Now that it’s Packers week I’m going to drop some interesting Eagles/Packers facts and notes.

@thomasrp93
😵💫😵💫 WR3??? He’ll be lucky to make the team.
He has 1 year in his career over 225 yards and was out of football last year. He’s a nice story but let’s be realistic here he’s very much a long shot to even make the team let alone play.
Can Year 2 Jalen Carter become a historical comparison to Year 2 (1996) Warren Sapp?
In 1995 Warren Sapp was the clear best defensive player in the draft but fell to pick 12 due to off field concerns.
In 2023 Jalen Carter was a clear top 5 talent but fell to pick 9 due to off
@PhillyTruthr
I did this post last week. Instead of wondering if Steen is going to be the starter I think fans should be wondering how much of an upgrade Steen will be at RG over Jurgens was out of position last year instead
Could the Eagles breakout player be Tyler Steen heading into his Year 2 season?
And why is the question not will Steen be an upgrade over Jurgens at RG?
Last year was the first time Jurgens played at RG for in his entire college/pro career and only had an average 63 PFF grade
@EliotShorrParks
JC Latham.
Start at RG right away, be lanes future RT replacement/backup
Went to Bama so you know Howie will be interested as all he has done recently is draft BAMA/GA prospects in rounds 1-2
@PHLEagleNews
@MyMusicaDEN
Ricky Watters, loved him in the SB vs the Chargers and couldn’t believe he came to Philly
TO I was as pumped as ever for and it was a magic for 1 year but obviously didn’t end well
Malcom Jenkins (played HS football vs him)
GAME DAY. Did you know the longest run vs the Saints in Eagles history was in 2020 when Miles Sanders took this 82 yarder to the house. It is the Eagles 4th longest running play of all time so enjoy 🦅💰

2. Jalen Hurts ‘(20)

9. Michael Lewis (‘02)
10 Mychal Kendricks (‘12)
Eagles were working on Jalen Hurts to Barkley pitch plays in drills today.
Here were 2 plays I found Kellen Moore ran using the same pitch out with Tony Pollard in 2022 that resulted in big plays so this should be a good look at what’s to come as a full play. Both plays were

Every catch of that historic playoffs ⬇️🦅💰
Is it possible that Quinyon Mitchell will not be the opening day starting corner opposite Slay?
It has been reported that Ringo is taking 1st team reps at OTAs which doesn’t promise anything but is a starting indication.
Maybe the long term plan for Mitchell is to be Slays
With the news of Josh Sweat switching to
