They’re selling to all of us that they’re gonna be a contender this year, and I do not believe it.

I do not buy it.

The vibes are so bad in Philadelphia.

You lose Jalen Phillips, who was a big part of the Eagles down the stretch last season after the trade deadline.

You lose him, he goes to Carolina.

You lose Reed Blankenship, one half of the exciting whites, so that’s very sad.

He goes to Houston.

Jakobi Dean heads to the Raiders.

C.J.

Gardner-Johnson is out.

Jahan Dotson is out.

And, eh, so you, you’re losing a lot of productivity.

The Eagles didn’t do a ton in free agency other than lose players and lose production.

The AJ Brown vibes are bad.

I think that the writing is on the wall.

I think it’s inevitable that AJ Brown is not going to be playing in an Eagles uniform, at least at some point next season.

Whether he gets traded before the draft, or draft night, or during, at the trade deadline, whatever it is, I think AJ Brown’s days are numbered in Philadelphia.

So those are bad vibes.

You bring in Sean Mannion to call plays, which has to be an upgrade from Kevin Patullo, because I think I would be an upgrade from Kevin Patullo.

But still, Sean Mannion’s never called plays in the NFL before.

Like, this is I think there are some serious question marks about the Philadelphia Eagles, Fitzy, that are not going to be answered with a positivity bunny.

Like, it’s, it’s broken.

The fact that so many people interviewed- Yeah for a job at a Super Bowl contender and chose not to take it, to me, is always a weird sign.

Something is broken in Philadelphia.
