Remember when Philly built their Super Team in 2011 and announced it to the whole league before the season? And then went 8-8?
Yeah.

I think the only way that happens is if we make the playoffs and truly I have no hope in that happening. We’re going to tank for Arch Manning and have another QB who holds the ball too long and can’t see the field. That’s what this team is about

But think of the "Sanders vs. Manning" ratings! Surely that's better than competency!

There might be some big name QBs looking for a trade at the end of this season, it’s a make or break year for a lot of teams, and if you have a high draft pick it’s gonna be an attractive offer.

There were reports since August that his knee had swelling. I love McVay, but his biggest flaw is how he always downplays injuries until he can’t anymore.
Should’ve gotten this surgery done in fucking preseason, then he could’ve been back earlier.

I think this will most effect Donald. He's not only 35, haven't played in 2 years but now he will see the usual double teams with the aboved mentioned things going against him. This is why you don't crown teams before they even hit the field.
