Could talk to TB to get them to trade their 1st round pick. Their speculation goes something like this--because Winston has off field questions, the Eagles could offer enough pieces and draft picks to cause the Bucks to rebuild their offense and defense. It would probably go back to the days of Mike McCormick but Chip would be hitching his wagon to a rookie, not a 15 year vet.

I was at the Monday Night Football game when they played the Rams. Roman Gabriel was running for his life. It was the most inept Eagles game i've ever watched. The Vet emptied at half time. Gabriel wasn't even the Rams starting QB when they traded for him.
Nov. 3, 1975: LA RAMS 42, EAGLES 3
The Eagles had lost five of their first six games and were hosting the Rams at the Vet.
Coach Mike McCormack had admitted that his roster included "some dogs,'' and the fans had a field day. A few fans paraded around with a huge Alpo dog bone, others posted banners and bed sheets critical of the team, some others were wearing dog masks.
On the field, the Rams scored off a Roman Gabriel fumble and another off an interception return in what looked like the "Football Follies."
"Yeah, I saw the bone,'' linebacker Bill Bergey recalled years later, "and there were other fans wearing dog masks.
"My first reaction was, 'Why?' Why would anyone go to that much trouble to humiliate us? I mean, it took time to make that [bone]. And how did they get it into the stadium?
"But the way we played that night, we probably deserved it.''
