I would like to move the goal posts inside of the endzone so we can make field goals easier

"Yeah but Eagles won a superbowl with a backup QB so it shouldn't have mattered. Oh Purdy was the third string QB last year? Lalala i cant hear you"

[–] legobowser@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Well eagles didn’t have Desean Jackson so we can’t really know

[–] GGGiveHatpls@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Can we ask Ja Rule how he feels?

[–] sail_away13@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Jackson was on the field both before the game and during it. Was not wearing pads though

[–] slowerchop@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Do it in the playoffs

[–] DirectTV_AndrewLuck@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

But but but, Jalen went to the medical tent!!!

[–] Insectshelf3@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

sorry, MVP is reserved for QBs that complete 70.01% of their passes for 315 yards.

[–] ACEPACEACE@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Stroud is MVP by all definitions of the word, literally carrying the team on his back to 7 wins is absurd after they were the 2nd worst team last year. He's my MVP

[–] RJMonster@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Defense got cooked after the 1st quarter. Every drive led to a TD and forgot how to tackle. Leonard was smart for waiting to sign cause now Eagles giving him a bag

I don't get the Purdy hate. Dude was Mr Irrelevant and lit up the league, and its not like hes throwing all checkdowns too. Bizarre really

Hate the 9ers, sure. But why Purdy lol? Every bad game he has (its not many) half this sub just eats him alive like no other QB

[–] varnell_hill@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

HATERS STAY SALTY LOOOOOOOOOL.

[–] gridironk@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yes he needs to throw 8 TDs into quintuple coverage without Deebo, Kittle, CMC and Aiyuk on the field.

And he needs to do this against the 1985 Bears or 2000 Ravens.

[–] Impressive-Theory-27@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I mean the only nit pick, is the ridiculous amount of yac yards his receivers get

[–] joogiee@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

“Nah jalen hurts beat himself today”. Heard a lot of that at the game today.

[–] willi3blaz3@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I mean, we’ve never seen him outside of the system

[–] PleaseStopSmoking@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is anyone really discounting Brock Purdy? I feel like everyone's been justifiably hyped as fuck about him since he made his debut. Sucks he got injured in the NFCCG last year, but it's what happened, not sure where goal posts were moved.

[–] phil0sophy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The Ringers official QB rankings has Purdy at 20.

[–] restless_vagabond@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It's a jab at Nick Wright who thinks he is mediocre until he fulfills a certain set of conditions like being behind by a certain amount in the fourth quarter and bringing his team back without the help of his star players.

Dumb shit, but it's a hot take from "sports media personality."

[–] Intelligent-Age2786@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Eagles didn’t have Brian Dawkins so there’s an asterick

[–] UniqueNobo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

on one hand, i was kinda hoping the Eagles would go 16-1 just to make the fact that their only defeat was to the Jets practice squad secondary and Zach Wilson that much funnier…

but this just feels nice seeing Philadelphia get fucked up. good job 9ers.

[–] HolyRomanPrince@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He still plays on a supremely talented offense with the best play caller in the game. Trent, Deebo and CMC were exceptional today

[–] CaliforniaHurricane_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This is how last year’s NFC Championship game would’ve went

[–] Brooklynboxer88@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

“Let’s see him play from behind by more than 14 points, we don’t know how he really is under pressure”

[–] Zhiyi@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah play on a team that’s not loaded out the ass.

[–] Suspicious_Afternoon@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

GaMe MaNaGeR 🤓

[–] RaiLong415@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Has he beaten a good team?

[–] DumbestBoy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How does he finish a full game against Big Dom?

[–] johnnygoober@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

But how good is he at underwater basket weaving??

[–] Naynathan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As much as I hate it, he’s probably the next Tom Brady of the league

[–] Its_Claire33@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He looks the part. He's this good as essentially a rookie. It's nuts. I don't think we win the sb this year but next year should be great if he takes another step.

[–] zincinzincout@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He played perfect but anyone that’s still been saying he isn’t a great QB has to just be trolling.

Unironically this is not the defense to make this point against lmao, no goalpost moving intended. The environment adds significance to the win obviously but freaking Sam Howell put up 700 yards and 5 tds in 2 games against this defense

[–] ZhangtheGreat@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, he can’t get drafted last. That’s his next goalpost 😏

[–] glago93@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Do it again in the playoffs. That's the next step.

[–] currybeef@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Does this count as a comeback win for Purdy?

[–] Bircka@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Herp derp he has an incredible offense he can't be MVP!

He still hasn't come back from down 14 at half-time to win.

[–] Acrobatic_Unit_8217@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dude on pace to a 4500 yard and 33 TDs season. Not bad for 7 rounder.
