How should Philadelphia Eagles handle A.J. Brown situation? | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

IT IS AJ. BROWN IS WHO HE IS, HE’S AS AUTHENTIC SELF AND 1 OF THE POINTS FROM THIS WEEK THAT GAINED A LOT OF TRACTION. DEREK GUNN WHO’S COVERED THE TEAM FOR A VERY LONG TIME. EXPLAINING THAT THE PROBLEM WITH THE OFFENSE IS THAT JAYLEN HERTZ IS PLAYING HIS GAME. HE’S NOT DOING WHAT THE COACHES ARE TELLING HIM TO DO AND THERE’S NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT BECAUSE OF HIS CONTRACT. I BROKE DOWN YESTERDAY, WHAT IT WOULD COST FROM A CAP STANDPOINT TO TRADE HIM AFTER THIS SEASON, THEY ARE STUCK WITH HIM FOR MULTIPLE MORE YEARS. SO, HE HAS POWER OVER THE SITUATION. CAN DO WHATEVER WE WANT. WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO? BENCH HIM KNOW, THEY’RE GOING TO TRADE HIM. THEY CAN’T FROM A CAP STANDPOINT. THEY’RE NOT GOING AJ BROWN FIGURED OUT THE SAME THING. YOU KNOW, AJ BROWN, DIDN’T SAY WHAT HE SAID, THE WAY YOU SAID IT UNTIL AFTER THE TRADE DEADLINE. WHAT ARE THEY GONNA DO? THEY’RE GONNA CUT HIM. THEY’RE NOT GONNA BENCH HIM. AND MAYBE THEY’LL TRADE HIM AFTER THE SEASON AND MAYBE THAT’S OR MAYBE JUST MOTIVATION. THE CORE HE WANTS TO WIN. HE WANTS TO WIN ANOTHER SUPER BOWL AND HE UNDERSTANDS THAT AND THIS IS WHY I SAY IT WAS SELFLESS OF HIM BECAUSE HE ALLOWED HIMSELF TO BE CHARACTERIZED AS SELFISH IN WHAT HE SAID. BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE WILL SAY, OH, JUST BE IN ANOTHER DIVA. RECEIVER JUST WANTS THE FOOTBALL IN HIS HANDS WANTS TO HAVE ALL THE GLORY. CAN’T CAN’T CAN’T TOLERATE SOMEONE ELSE. CATCHING THE TOUCHDOWN PASS. KNOW HE WANTS TO WIN. HE WANTS THE TEAM TO THRIVE AND HE WAS BEING SELFLESS IN WELCOMING THAT DISDAIN AND THAT DISMISSIVENESS. THAT WILL COME FROM. OH, YOU’RE JUST ANOTHER GUY FOOTBALL? WE’RE JUST GOING TO TUNE YOU OUT. UM, I I’M NOT GOING TO CALL HIM SELFISH, UM, BUT I WILL ASK IF DOES IT HELP? DOES IT DOES IT HELP JAYLON HURTS? BE BETTER. DOES IT HELP THE OFFENSE? I, I DON’T, I DON’T KNOW. I, I I DON’T THINK IT HELPED. I DON’T THINK HE’S, I DON’T THINK HE’S SELFISH BUT I ALSO DON’T THINK WHAT HE’S SAYING IS GOING TO OF WAY. UM, I I I’VE HEARD, UH, DEVON MCCORD. DO HIS BELCH IMPERSONATION. HE DOES A REALLY GOOD 1 BY YES. UM, BUT THE BELICH CONTENT AND AND THIS IS BEFORE DEVIN GOT THERE. BUT YOU KNOW, BELICH WANTS IN A TEAM MEETING BECAUSE HE USED TO PAY ATTENTION TO EVERYTHING THAT WAS SAID IN THE MEDIA HE REALLY DID. HE DID. HE HAD, UH, HE HAD A TEAM OF PEOPLE WHO WOULD HEY, THIS IS WHAT THE GUY SAID YESTERDAY, SO IT WENT TO THE TEAM MEETING HE’S LOOKING AT, UH, HE’S READING AN ARTICLE AND ANYTIME HE’S DOING THAT, YOU KNOW, YOU’RE ABOUT TO GET IT. HEY, I’M JUST READING THIS STORY IN THE BOSTON GLOBE. AND 1 GUY SAYS, WE NEED TO DO THIS. AND ANOTHER GUY SAYS, WE NEED TO DO THIS. HEY GUYS, I’M GONNA TELL YOU THIS RIGHT HERE ARE YOUR OPTIONS. WHEN WHEN TALKING ABOUT OUR TEAM, HE SAID, YOU CAN TALK ABOUT YOURSELF. I’LL GIVE YOU 3 OPTIONS AND IT WAS REALLY ONLY 2. SO I’M GONNA GIVE YOU 3 OPTIONS. YOU CAN TALK ABOUT YOURSELF AND YOUR PERFORMANCE. AND ASK US HOW YOU CAN IMPROVE. AND WE’LL CERTAINLY, TELL YOU HOW YOU CAN IMPROVE WITHOUT TALKING ABOUT YOUR TEAMMATES OR SORRY, STANFORD. SORRY, SORRY, SORRY. SORRY LONDON. YOU CAN SHUT THE OKAY, YOU KNOW. SO THOSE ARE THE 3 OPTIONS. TALK ABOUT YOURSELF, YOU CAN GET GET BETTER? AND SO, THE THAT THAT’S THE, YOU KNOW, BELLICH IS THE EXTREME WAY BECAUSE HE, HE, HE DIDN’T REALLY LIKE MEDIA PER. HE DIDN’T LIKE PEOPLE TO DISPLAYING TOO MUCH PERSONALITY IN THE MEDIA, BUT THERE’S SOMETHING TO BE SAID FOR, HEY WE’RE TRYING TO WE’RE THE BEST TEAM IN THE NFC AND I THINK THEY ARE AND WE’RE TALKING ABOUT THIS DRAMA AND WE’RE THE BEST TEAM IN THE NFC. WE’RE GOING TO HAVE HOME FIELD PROBABLY IN THE PLAYOFFS AND GET BACK TALKING ABOUT I DON’T KNOW. DOES THIS HELP? I DON’T THINK IT DOES. WELL, AND THE PROBLEM IS THERE’S SO MANY TIMES. YOU CAN RAISE IT INTERNALLY AND IT DOESN’T CHANGE. AND I THINK IT NATURALLY FLOWS OUT BECAUSE THE CONTEXT WASN’T THAT AJ BROWN SHOWED UP AND SAID, HEY TODAY, I’M GOING TO AIR MY GRIEVANCES ABOUT OUR SPUTTERING OFFENSE, IT WAS THE DAY AFTER THE JANKY RONDO, TWITCH STREAM IN WHICH AJ BROWN SAID, IF YOU GOT ME ON FANTASY, GET RID OF ME. THAT WAS WHAT STARTED IT AND THEN IT JUST KIND OF WENT FROM THERE BUT YOU’RE RIGHT, THE OVERRIDING ME MESSAGE MESSAGE NEEDS TO BE WE ARE 1, WE DEAL WITH OUR PROBLEMS INTERNALLY. IF YOU HAVE AN ISSUE, YOU BRING IT TO ME. DO NOT TAKE IT TO THE MEDIA BUT WHAT CAN YOU ULTIMATELY DO? WHAT IS NICK SIR GOING TO DO? HE’S NOT IT’S TOO LATE TO TRADE AJ BROWN, THEY MAY WISH. IF THEY WERE BEING CANDID THAT THEY HAD SET UP A COMPETITION FOR MULTIPLE TEAMS TO COME IN AND TRY TO GET AJ, BROWN DANGLED HIS CONTRACT TOWARD LET THEM DO FEEDING FRENZY THROWING OFFERS PROBABLY AT SOME LEVEL WISH THAT THEY HAD AT LEAST EXPLORED THAT BUT THEY DIDN’T AND NOW THEY’RE STUCK. THEY’RE STUCK WITH THE HERTZ CONTRACT. THEY’RE STUCK WITH THE BROWN CONTRACT AT LEAST THROUGH THIS SEASON, AND YOU MAKE A GREAT POINT AT SOME LEVEL. THEY’VE GOT TO FIND A WAY TO GET THESE GUYS. TO, TO BE A LITTLE MORE CAREFUL IN WHAT THEY SAY, I STILL AM A FIRM BELIEVER AT SOME POINT? YOU’RE GOING TO GO ROGUE, IF YOU’VE DONE EVERYTHING, YOU CAN, IF YOU’RE TALKING TO A WALL, IF YOU’RE TRYING TO GET THROUGH TO JAIL AND HURTS AND IT’S NOT WORKING AND YOU’RE TRYING TO GET THROUGH TO NICK, SERANI, AND NOTHING’S CHANGING. AND YOU’RE FRUSTRATED, AND YOU’RE WE DOING HERE? AT SOME POINT, YOU MAKE AN EXECUTIVE DECISION, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE CIRCUMSTANCES KIND OF FORCED YOU INTO IT? BECAUSE AGAIN, I DON’T THINK HE INTENDED TO DO IT. WE GOT TO TAKE A BREAK WHEN WE RETURN. THERE’S A HUGE GAME LOOMING ON SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL BETWEEN A PAIR OF DIVISION WINNERS IN THE AFC, NFC 1 IS IN DANGER OF LOSING

  1. You people are insane, talking about trading the Superbowl MVP, or talking like we are trying to get rid of him. You national media people continue to eat off of anything that happens in Philly. All he does is win, and Derrick Gunn is senile and trying to gain attention.

  2. Hurts has had some bad games but you need to mention that AJ Brown has had bad games as well. He is not separating in many games so far and yet? If he was open on over half his routes, sure, speak up. But most games he is not. I think the big problem is that the OL is not run blocking well. Hurts has less time which means AJ and Smith have less time to get open, in an offense centered on play-action passing and ROPs. Josh Allen just looked like a scrub against Houston and lost. Hurts/AJ look like scrubs some week and yet Eagles keep winning. You are what your record says you are…

  3. If being "stuck" meant my team going to 2 SBs in 3 years, then actually winning a SB and also having the highest winning percentage in the entire NFL since Hurts became the starter in 2021 then leave me "stuck". I'll take it!

  4. The problem isnt aj. They have a coaching and qb problem
    Edit: whether sirianni is a good football coach or not, he needs to adress the problems on his team. AJ probably doesnt try to say things and take acxountability like he does if sirianni adresses the situation instead of being in denial

  5. Now lets go to Josh Allen. Clowns.. You praised Josh Allen for winning last week and against the Chiefs. Yesterday, ye does what he does in frear games…. Choke…. Now you guys are saying he had no help. He had a bad defense and no offensive weapons. You were not saying that when he won with those same weapons.

  6. "THEY ARE STUCK WITH A HURTS CONTRACT"? These clowns are just outrageous.
    Who wants to trade Hurts? Who? Stuck with Hurts??????

    Wow

    CLOWNS 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡

  7. A J Brown is correct.
    Sure , they're Super Bowl champs…
    If the Eagles continue this offensive output.. they're playing on borrowed time. I hope I'm wrong. If Jalen Hurts can dot the ball in tight windows like McKee , please do Mr . Hurts.. and I'm a die hard Eagles fan

  8. The only thing the Eagles are stuck with is a sensational organization. Roseman and Sirianni won’t let this affect the locker room. Just like they jettisoned the defensive backs they’ll identify whatever culture problems that they arise🦅

  9. Either Florio doesn’t follow eagles or doesn’t care. AJ brown after the super bowl said in a tweet he would rather have stats then win. He also tweeted after a big game when he was used he was unhappy so it isn’t about winning

  10. Hey you guys wanna discuss the performance by Josh Allen last night or how about Goff last week? Or how about Justin Herbert throwing for a whopping 81 yards? Be consistent for once.
