Unfortunately the answer is because most Americans are dumb, and only wake up when their pockets get hit personally.
(warning not football. Turn away. You are warned) I am happy but like. Why did voters not do this two years ago. Nothing that has happened since has been surprising

Really hope fans in attendance put aside their disappointment w/ this season and treat halftime as a celebration of how Lurie has turned the Eagles into a premier, elite, CHAMPIONSHIP franchise. Should be a show of immense respect and gratitude. Then boo their hearts out in 3Q.
Jeffrey Lurie will be inducted into the Eagles Hall of Fame tonight at halftime 🦅 — 20 playoff appearances — 12 NFC East titles — 8 NFC Championship Game appearances — 4 Super Bowl appearances — 2 Super Bowl championships — One of only five owners in NFL history with 300+ wins, four Super Bowl appearances and multiple championships — Founded the Eagles Autism Foundation, which has raised over $56 million for research and care

Yeah and idc that was a complete dick move by McClane in that situation. Right message/energy but to the wrong person in this situation
Jalen Hurts was a national storyline last night on the evening news, this morning america today and the Eagles thought just throwing Nick Sirriani out there to the execution squad was a good idea. sheesh.

There are undoubtedly a lot of things to hold gripes with Nick about 100%, but them feeding him to the wolves like that was completely unacceptable. As an organization they should be embarrassed.

Jalen Hurts wasn't playing well, and he probably won't be here next year when they have a new coach. But if you thought Nick Sirianni was being held back by his QB and there was some amazing offense waiting to be unleashed with a new QB... well you're an idiot.

Folks out here covering kicks properly and I am floored.
Nice to see a team run the clock down correctly.

I've known this was coming so I've already gotten my anger out for the most part. But this is the type of move that causes real fans to just check out. Managers only mean so much (tho I think Mattingly is actively detrimental with his bullpen usage) but this just speaks to the complacency and "ah well" shrugging of the shoulders mindset of the Dombrowski era Phillies.

Idk how Eagles fans can watch other QBs around the league then go back to watching Jalen Hurts and defend his game.

If you ever thought Jalen Hurts was an elite QB, that's on YOU. Your stance is already coming from a flawed POV rendering whatever you say afterwards useless. We can't have normal conversations until this is accepted.

Seen someone say it was essentially the equivalent to hitting a hair Mary. It's just bizarre that in the same game to end the half and end the game the clock was adjusted to give the opponent 1 second. Wild
Given it more thought: the decision on the kickoff was fine either way and an unlikely scenario played out. I have no issue with the decision to let them return it. Would have been fine with a touchback too. Make a tackle, or guard the sideline, same difference, IMO

The kickoff can at least be debated…bigger blunder was needing to kickoff in the first place…game should have ended on Elliott FG attempt. Period.
New Philly Special with @rich_hofmann! I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’m not sure Sirianni blew it. Deep dive on a wild Eagles/Jaguars game. @daboulcliff open.spotify.com/episode/4d6…

There’s a saying in coaching: “you’re either coaching it you’re allowing it to happen” The entire operation failed here. There was no reason to have to kick back to JAX The amount of people who don’t understand this and think I’m blaming Jalen just because…
He found a way to blame Jalen for completing a pass on a play call. Unbelievable.

Kicking a touchback to give them the ball at the 35 w/:08 means they'd need one 13 yd catch at the sideline to kick a 70 yd FG, which this kicker can do. I understand not wanting to do that. But there should have never been a kickoff at all. Manage the clock and you walk off.
After Coen waited 30 seconds to call his 2nd timeout after Goedert catch at +34, #Eagles had 1st & 10 w/:25. :25 Incomplete on roll-out (🕐 stops) :21 Makai 7 yd catch/run ob (just go down!) (🕐 stops) :17 Run for -3 :12 (Jags use last timeout) Just can't stop the clock there.

Second straight offseason I'm gonna have to listen to weeks of people trying to trade the best postseason performer in my franchise's history and people who don't follow baseball gonna tell me he doesn't get criticized 💔
I didn’t think it would happen on Day 5, but we’ve already hit the recklessly speculating of a Bryce Harper trade that isn’t going to happen part of the offseason.

“Well see the offense sucks right now, that’s why you should bet that they will be able to drive for a game winning FG if the Rams score twice, and not gamble on getting 2 yards”.

The Phillies situation will not improve until they fix the farm system situation. They cannot buy enough players to fill an entire roster with FAs. They also have no prospect depth to make any impact trades. FA bought them a quick short term window but that ages out fast.

Since 2022 the best young hitter the Phillies have developed/acquired is Bryson Stott. That's why everyone else is passing you by why you do nothing.
