G-Lew Shitcanned

Ding ding ding.

GLew's most noticeable moment was screaming on the sidelines, trying to get Agholor's attention to avoid an illegal formation on Ertz's non-TD. There's not much he can do with a group of WRs like we have.

You could bring in Jerry Rice, TO, Moss, Lynn Swan

to coach this shitty core and they all would be fired

Jeff McLane thinks he had it coming..

It was the most dubious of the staffing hires made after Doug Pederson was named head coach last January, and was emphasized in this space at that time. But it became increasingly apparent that Lewis was unsuitable for the task at hand, as two instances before the season suggested.

The first occurred during training camp. Agholor, who entered the season after an underwhelming rookie season, was dropping passes on almost a daily basis. During one particular drill, the receiver was uncovered deep. The pass landed in Agholor’s hands, but he juggled it for a few steps before pulling it in and running into the end zone.

The play elicited cheers from some fans in attendance, but Agholor knew it wasn’t a catch worthy of praise. He pounded the football as he ran back toward his group. Lewis, though, walked out, met him, and patted him on the back with a smile.

Should Agholor have been admonished instead? Maybe not. Perhaps a teaching point was conveyed in the film room. But Lewis’ initial reaction was consistent with the Eagles’ public coddling of the receiver and with the position coach’s occasional rapport with his players.

For example, on the day that Paul Turner was signed to the Eagles practice squad, the undrafted rookie drew a pack of reporters to his locker stall. Lewis, one of the few assistants to regularly venture into the locker room, stood behind the cameras and made faces and gestures to get Turner to laugh.

This is the type of crack reporting that shows Myths shouldn't be coddled in the press box!

He's been sitting on that info all season waiting for this moment. That's a pro.

There's deep threats and then there's DJax. Most don't come close...

DJAX is ASS in big games. 0 TD catches in last 3 playoff games

[Loki]

You really don't understand

that DJax could go without a catch in a game, yet still have a big effect on the outcome, do you?

I understand that the last 3 playoff games he played in his team lost the game

Maybe you need to type slower, smegma is none to bright!

Me maybe slow but I understand that a receiver playing in 3 playoff games with 0 td catches and the teams lost means he is not that good

[RSE]

I guess A J Green is not that good.

Can't be if he can't perform well in a playoff game

I'd be happy if DJax was re-signed and had zero catches in an Eagles playoff game next season. If the price is right, he'd help a lot even without the ball, too. Maybe Jordan Matthews and the others might find a matchup they can win.

Offense fell off a cliff once DJax left. His effect on opposing teams' schemes was evident. Jordan Matthews will probably make the pro bowl next year if DJax is on the team.
