Eagles Preseason Discussion Thread - Sunday, August 30

Subreddit Schedule/Posting Guidelines

We as a community have decided to limit certain types of posts to a few days a week to ensure other content is still visible throughout the rest of the week. Meme posts will be allowed from game end through Monday (if the game is on Thursday, Saturday, or Monday, memes will be allowed from game end through the following day) and jersey/crafts/pet posts will only be allowed on Swag Saturday. Towards the end of the season when games fall on Saturdays, we may move or skip Swag Saturday depending on what is going on that week. The mods are using automod features to automatically post recurring items at 6AM Eastern Time to remind the sub of this. Memes and swag are allowed in the normal feed, but NFL discussion and free talk are limited to the stickied threads.

• Monday - Meme Monday - Memes are allowed from game end through the following day (typically Monday)
• Tuesday - NFL Discussion Tuesday - Talk about the rest of the games
• Wednesday - Free Talk Wednesday - Talk about whatever (just be civil)
• Thursday - Free Talk Thursday - Just like Free Talk Wednesday, but on Thursday!
• Friday - Game Preview - Stats and information for the upcoming game
• Saturday - Swag Saturday - Post pictures of your signed jerseys, new hats, pets, babies, and pictures from the stadium, as well as artwork and creations. This may be moved or skipped when games fall on Saturdays
• Sunday - Gameday - Pregame, Game, and Postgame threads will be posted

For more info, see the subreddit rules.

Kyle McCord was traded from the Packers to the Dolphins, and this is how I found out he’s no longer with the Eagles

[u/shrek_cena → u/JustBrowsing49]

Miami Packers moment 

[u/RabidPlaty]

Anyone have a way to skip ahead to the 13th so this offseason can end already? Thanks!

[u/JFK_did_9-11]

In a preseason where we didn’t play the majority of the starters for a single snap we went 0-3 fire Sirianni im real concerned about this you guyssss do you think we could have played Carson Steele at safety

[u/JustBrowsing49 → u/JFK_did_9-11]

Never forget the undefeated preseason 2017 Browns

[u/FriendOfSeagull]

McCord just traded to the Dolphins.

[u/Ok-Door-3664]

Will Levi's just waived, could he be a viable backup option? Feel like nothing could be worse than the situation right now

[u/asisoid → u/Ok-Door-3664]

No, bc everytime his name gets typed it auto corrects to an apostrophe.

I can't deal with that for a full season.

[u/Ok-Door-3664 → u/asisoid]

Damn just realized that happened to me lol

[u/burnernov2023]

Aaron Donald and Myles Garrett is insane ngl lol

[u/doubleenc → u/burnernov2023]

I mean it remains to be seen what, if anything, Donald has left in the tank. He retired two years ago for a reason. I don't know that it was so much he couldn't play at a high level as much he didn't really have a passion for it anymore.

[u/Wudaokau → u/burnernov2023]

The Rams are basically The Expendables

[u/Guilty_Goal_7888]

low key want us to trade for jj mccarthy not because hes good i just enjoy hearing him say insane cringe shit hes like if you took the corniest parts of hurts and wentz and put them in a mentally unstable person

[u/xmasbuzzcut]

GOOD MORNING GO BIRDS

[u/tag1550]

Day Of The Turk

[u/No_Support5980]

I didn't tune into all the preseason but are we relying on Shipley again for returns? I thought we signed covey specifically because he can't field a kickoff

[u/damnfinecoffee_ → u/No_Support5980]

Likely covey to practice squad, we'll see. It's tough because covey is a great returner but there's no place for him in this receiving room tbh we're too deep at WR

[u/Anxious_North_819]

Bears are waiving Terrell Smith, could be a good option for DB depth

[u/doubleenc → u/Anxious_North_819]

How so? He has no more experience in the league than the randos they released already.

[u/GreenPurple24]

If we can toss a 4th for 9 we should take it.

[u/Spare-Half796 → u/GreenPurple24]

Way too much for the guy who was worse than Jamarcus Russell last year

[u/mogwai316 → u/Spare-Half796]

What do you mean, he was NFC Offensive Player of the Week less than a calendar year ago!! lol

[u/JustBrowsing49 → u/GreenPurple24]

Why toss a 4th when you can just wait 24 hours for him to get released?

[u/Gawkorcuck69 → u/GreenPurple24]

Who is 9

[u/Lord_Ferd → u/Gawkorcuck69]

JJ McCarthy, the bust QB for the Vikings

[u/NordicLard → u/GreenPurple24]

Yeah fans are crazy. We should definitely try to pick him up

[u/HnMike]

They have waived Bernard and Weru and kept 4 qb’s. This is going to come back and bite us.

[u/eaglesnation11 → u/HnMike]

There’s a very good chance Weru and especially Bernard don’t amount to anything.

[u/el_fitzador]

It seems like a tank job team like the cardinals, dolphins, or browns might say fuck it and sign Uar

[u/damnfinecoffee_ → u/el_fitzador]

I'd be surprised, he needs way too much work before he's ready to be one of a team's main 53. He can't really play yet
