I did pick Bradford up though to backup Eli.  
SHO'NUFF : 8/31/2015 11:17 pm : link
It's a shame that such a likeable guy is on a low-class trash of a team.

It shouldn't be Bradford as the best QB in the NFC East, it should be "Eagles QB: insert name here" as the best.
Romo and Eli are just in a different class  
Mike in Long Beach : 8/31/2015 11:18 pm : link
than Bradford and Cousins. It's not even worth the debate. Even if Bradford has a Pro Bowl season, it'd be the first time he's every done so.

There's legit arguments for Eli and Romo. There is simply no rational argument for anyone else in the East.
And btw  
Mike in Long Beach : 8/31/2015 11:19 pm : link
We all know that video was posted simply as click bait. There's no way he actually believes it.

But the funny part is... He isn't baiting Giants fans with that. He's baiting Cowboys fans. We're just a nice little bonus.
Isn't that pretty much the definition of clickbait?

Further driven by Eskin's narcissistic need to be perceived as relevant?

I'll tell you. This pathetic piece of trash got his ass run off radio because he sucks so bad. He's a fucking weekend fill-in and Skip Bayless wannabe (which is about as low as one can aspire) who has never thrown a ball in his life. He's a Chip Kelly jizz mopper who is universally reviled by everyone in Philadelphia sports from front offices, to coaching staffs, to PR departments, to mouthbreathing fans. Fuck this guy and his Saturday morning radio show with zero listeners and less sponsors.
yeah why did he lose his radio show?

Yes it was that bad. He's a piece of shit that doesn't know anything about sports. And off the radio, his lecherous, leering flirting with a married woman ended with a bullet in her head. He's a disgraceful human being. That is if he even is human. I wouldn't be surprised to see him on his shitty Sunday at midnight sports show peel back the skin of his face to reveal a rat-eating lizard underneath. He is awful.

Eskin lost his afternoon drive show  
j_rud : 9/1/2015 12:05 am : link
because he simply wore out his welcome. He was a condescending, sexist, racist asshole who insulted every caller who disagreed with him. His show was a bully pulpit. He'd ask female callers if they were busy cooking or doing the laundry. He would address black callers as "dawg" and obnoxiously use hip hop vernacular. Simply put, he was a prick.

A few years back after Mike Missanelli returned to Philly after being exiled (for slugging Eskin while on air when they were partners) he made it his public mission to beat Eskin so badly in the ratings that his show would get canned. It happened in less than a year IIRC. Ironically Missanelli has become Eskin-lite and has alienated much of his fan base. If the competing station, WIP, wasn't such a shit-show he might have something to worry about.

They haven't won anything in over fifty fucking years and they come off like they're the ones who have four Lombardi trophies in their showcases. It's like that old Pennsylvania axiom that goes this was, " I learned you nothing and you still don't know it." Not sure how that fits into my rant but it sounds good.

The guy I really can't stand is Sal Palantonio. Every year he talks up the Eagles like this is the year. And he loves to dis the Giants every chance he gets.

Yes.

Eskin and Missanelli were on opposite sides of how they would talk about the teams. Eskin eas an Eagles/Reid/Banner lap dog and seemed to hate the Phillies and Charlie Manuel. Missanelli was Mr. Phillies and not an Eagles lap dog. In the late 00s that is that the Philly fan wanted to hear.

...a lot of people will drink the Sam Bradford Kool-Aid, especially fans who can't distinguish fantasy football from the real thing. He's still the Sean Lee of quarterbacks.

Bradford is a very good regular-season QB, when healthy. Tony Romo is a terrific regular-season QB, when healthy. Eli just keeps showing up, and winning the occasional Super Bowl.

Screw the rankings, lists and comparisons. Play the game.

If Eskin said something logical  
djm : 9/1/2015 10:44 am : link
and articulated just one well thought out educated opinion i'd start to worry about the looming apocalypse. The guy makes hacks look good. He's so many things that suck it's not even worth listing them all. Webster should adopt the word Eskin and assign it a definition befitting its name.

Even if you are going ga-ga over Bradford and would be willing to stake your career and rep on his game, you don't come out and say this guy is better than Romo and Eli. It's just a stupid comment to make. The guy hasn't even had one good year in the NFL yet. And I like him.
Question is,  
Doomster : 9/1/2015 10:47 am : link
who will play more, Beason or Bradford?

Huge gamble by Kelly.....he traded for an overall, #1 pick at qb, and did not give up much.......If he can stay healthy, in a Kelly offense(we saw Suggs with a hit on him), it will be a great trade...

I wouldn't go as far as to say Bradford is a very good regular season QB, healthy or otherwise. Look at his body of work....what exactly has he done? Very average for the most part.

But as Bruce Arians said, QBing in that system isn't being a pro QB. No snap count, no reads, certainly no audibles, lift your league and throw the ball to a predetermined spot.

All you need to know is Mark Sanchez thrives for the most part in that system.
The other thing to consider about analyzing the Eagles in preseason...  
BillKo : 9/1/2015 11:23 am : link
they are running their offense basically how it will run in the regular season.......and that is a nightmare matchup for teams in preseason football.

Teams want to install systems, and evaulate players. Going up against a no huddle team at that pace basically makes for a wreck of evaluation IMO. And no team in preaseason is game planning (at least not to a high degree) on how to stop it....it's vanilla base defense versus what the Eagles are doing.
.  
arcarsenal : 9/1/2015 11:47 am : link
I think if Bradford stays healthy he'll actually be really good in that offense but the overall statement is a fucking joke. No GM in the sport would take Bradford over Eli or Romo.
BillKo: Maybe 'very good' was generous.  
Big Blue Blogger : 9/1/2015 1:14 pm : link
I do think he's been good, though. And the offensive talent around him with the Rams was mostly, well, offensive. When Bradford was on the field, he was very seldom the problem. The first five years of his career remind me of Phil Simms, and his real story may remain to be written.
...Which reminds me that going into the 1984 season...  
Big Blue Blogger : 9/1/2015 1:22 pm : link
...the QBs in the NFC East might have been ranked like this:
1. Joe Theismann
2. Danny White
3. Ron Jaworski
4. Neil Lomax

999. Phil Simms/Jeff Rutledge

Screw the lists. Play the games.

BBB...so interesting. I know back in 1984 I was saying, just stay healthy Phil!!!!

Ultimately, I think a major issue will be keeping Bradford on the field (much like it was an issue for Simms other than 84-86, just three seasons). Phil was constantly on IR or battling injuries that kept him out.

I have little doubt if Bradford stays healthy, he puts up his best numbers. A monkey can QB in that offense. There are so many "declared" throws.

My biggest question is can an offense like that win the "big" games, where you need your QB to be able to change plays, get formations setup right. It's non existant in Kelly's offense.
You're boy Innes
