This means Miles is learning how to play pro ball better? I am thinking with hopefully a better passing game this season, it will open up the run game more. Always been a Miles fan(or anyone from PSU on the Iggles) and want him to do well.
2022 Eagles Thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
The “dream team” wound is still too fresh
I was listening to NFL on XM and Bill Polian was discussing Jimmy G. Why wouldn’t the Eagles have interest? With their upgrades and surrounding cast on offense, if Hurts doesn’t work, then they don’t have much of a chance. Jimmy G is good enough to get them to a Super Bowl if the rest of the offense stays healthy and the defense were good enough.
Howie won’t do it, but he should be making that call.
Jimmy won’t work for them relative to the cap. Hurts is on a cheap rookie contract, jimmy would cost a lot more
SF is going to have to pay a lot of Jimmy’s salary or release him and see him go to a division rival in Seattle.
It’s not easy, but Howie should make the call. Jimmy is a huge upgrade over Minshew.
1) no matter who pays what, I think their salaries go against one teams cap, not split between 2 teams so if a trade the Eagles are on the hook for the whole $25 mil ( even if SF pays like $20) relative to the cap. Again I think
2) why would jimmy g want to be a back up?? He can go somewhere else n start
3) I m a Jimmy G supporter but I don’t think he ll be w the Eagles unless they say screw Hurts, release him and sign Jimmy
I just don’t see that happening
I understand all the reasons it won’t happen. If you follow recent Eagles history, then you know the value having a first rate backup QB brings!
Minshew is a “win one game” type of backup. Jimmy can get you to the show if your starter goes down for the year.
The Eagles clearly want to see what Hurts brings this year. They’ll either extend him or draft a young guy next year.

Philadelphia Eagles' Gardner Minshew spent offseason in old prison bus, focused on 'Super Bowl or bust'
Minshew bought a bus, gave it a hippie makeover and parked it by a gym for five months, working out with a goal to help Philly make a title run.

You must be new around here. It’s late July and time for the annual just cancel the season and hand the Super Bowl Trophy to the Eagles.I confess I’m not an Iggles fan ( wife is huge fan though so I don’t root against them), but I don’t understand the “astronomical” expectations?
This is a 9-8 team
I don’t know how Siriani can be any clearer about Miles’ standing in the RB order.
