  • Or, if the backup scrub looks really, really good... maybe someone will give you an 8th rounder for him.

    Demanding Excellence since Pathetic Patricia Piddled the Pooch!

    • Generally there is an unwritten rule if a playoff berth is on the line, the team actually tries. The draft geeks get orgasms because they love the thought draft position. The same type of people who loved The Process. Who cares, the game was an outrage, it was point shaving and those fucks should be shamed.

      • Another team's playoff berth?

        Are the Eagles fans of the Giants?

        • You have a point if there weren’t reports before the game that Sudfeld was going to play. But there were reports, so you have no point.

            Didn't Cleveland have to win to get into the playoffs? So, in theory, didn't Pittsburgh benching Big Ben mess up another team's chances?

                • It's just that it's the same thing the Steelers and Chiefs did ... although you could argue they should want momentum going into the playoffs

                  • I don't see what the big deal is with Philly. Its not like its a new thing there. The 6ers did it for what seemed like a decade of stockpiling high end picks. Why the hell should they try to screw themselves out of a higher pick.

                    If Detroit were smart they would have had the janitor coaching the Lions with dimwit as the QB.

                    • I really don't care what Philly did. If the Giants wanted to make the playoffs, they should have won more than 6 games. But it's fun watching Peterson spin it. I'm sure he had the backing of his bosses to pull that shit, but can't imagine it went over well with the other players. And throwing Sudfeld in 3/4 through a game against one of the better defenses and DL in the league, taking over at his own 11 yard line sure doesn't seem like a good way to assess him.

                      • It just looked bad, I can guarantee you they did not need to evaluate Nate Sudfield. Just because they telegraphed the exit strategy in case they got too close to winning. The evaluation story made no sense at the time and will never make any sense, he's Nate Sudfield.

                        • I think it’s more of a reward than anything. A guy who has been on the roster, grinding in meetings, good teammate. All that bullshit. So in the last quarter of s meanlingless season he got some run. Hell, Peterson said as much prior to the game!

                          • Btw, Philly did go for it with Hurts. 17-14 Skins and it was 4th and 4 or whatever inside the 10. Hurts didn’t convert, so then they went Sudfeld.

                            So they actually played to TAKE the lead.

                            This is one of those stupid 24/7 news cycle ESPN talking head moments.

                            What happens if Hurts stays in and blows his knee out? Then fucking everyone is after Peterson for keeping Hurts in a “meaningless” game.

                            • Well, it seems like nobody except King and Pederson were expecting it.

                              Eagles players, coaches were shocked by Doug Pederson’s QB switch, resulting in sideline confrontations

                                Actually, I'd argue that's evidence that they WEREN'T really trying to win. In that situation, it makes all the sense in the world to take the points rather than gamble on a 4th and 4, which in that situation is a pretty damn low percentage play.

                                Sure, if it had worked, Pederson wouldn't have been cursing in anger. They weren't trying to lose... but they weren't exactly putting themselves in the best position to win, either.
