I mean I didn't really need another reason to wish we never threw away a 1st on this guy but...thanks for the reminder. Now sit quietly at the end of the bench like most of your wasted career.

Yeah Tready's comment was stupid, but Pederson really looks like a total ass today.  A SB winning HC should just know better.
https://sports.yahoo.com/doug-pederson-predicted-win-over-cowboys-and-his-eagles-laid-an-egg-032242713.html
On Monday, Doug Pederson said his Philadelphia Eagles were going to go to Dallas and beat the Cowboys.
For
a moment, let’s put aside the nonsensical argument over whether that
was a guarantee or not. Pederson presumably predicted the win to shake
up his team, to inspire confidence and fire them up. He needed something
to dig his 3-3 team out of a rut. He needed to do something big to get a
proper response in a key game.
Now what?
The Eagles were horrible on Sunday night in a 37-10 loss.
They started slow, again, and were down 27-7 to the Cowboys by
halftime. This was an enormous game in the NFC East and for the Eagles’
playoff hopes, and they had no juice whatsoever. It looked more like a
preseason game to the Eagles, and a playoff game to the Cowboys. When
the Eagles had a tiny chance at a miracle comeback in the fourth
quarter, Carson Wentz threw an interception and dropped a shotgun snap for a fumble on consecutive possessions.
[Watch live NFL games on the Yahoo Sports app, here's how]
Pederson
tried predicting a win in the Eagles’ biggest game of the season to
date, and the players had their worst performance of the season. Now
it’s Pederson’s mess to clean up. He’s going to have a long week in
Philly.
“I feel like he got a statement today,” Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence, who wasn’t pleased with Pederson’s comments, told NBC’s Michele Tafoya after the game. “We’re going to let him go sleep on it.”
Eagles look bad in loss to CowboysThe
Eagles’ night started bad. Dallas Goedert lost a fumble on
Philadelphia’s first drive of the game. The Cowboys scored a few plays
later. It didn’t get better after that.
Pederson was celebrated as one of the NFL’s best coaches after masterfully leading the Eagles to a Super Bowl title. He out-coached Bill Belichick in a Super Bowl,
and that would be the first line on almost any NFL coach’s resume. Last
season looked like a big disappointment until a late rally led by Nick
Foles made everyone forget about the start. This season is shaping up as
a bigger disappointment, and Foles isn’t around anymore for late-season
heroics.
There
hasn’t been one big reason for the Eagles’ failure. Against the Lions,
they dropped a ton of passes. Against Atlanta, the defense allowed a
long game-winning touchdown by Julio Jones on a fourth down. That’s
still the Falcons’ only win of the season. The secondary, thinned out by
injuries, was shredded last week by the Vikings. On Sunday the Eagles’
normally strong offensive line struggled, the defense missed a ton of
tackles and turnovers were a problem again. It’s actually more difficult
to figure out what Philadelphia did well on Sunday night.
It
seems like in each loss, there’s a different problem. Pederson deserved
kudos for his acumen during that Super Bowl season, but he also has to
take heat for this Eagles season in which his team has been sloppy and
unprepared at times. Maybe all that praise for the championship season
was premature.
Doug Pederson needs to find some answersIt’s
not like the NFC East race is over. Dallas is 4-3, a game ahead of
Philadelphia, and has its own issues. But the Cowboys struck a big blow
on Sunday night.
Perhaps more important, the Eagles looked overwhelmed. At no point on Sunday night did they look like the better team.
The
Eagles are unquestionably talented. They have stars everywhere on
offense and defense. Plenty of the key parts of the Super Bowl team are
still on the roster. Wentz has been seemingly healthy and mostly played
well this season, and it hasn’t mattered much. Injuries have affected
Philadelphia, but the Eagles are far from the only team in the league
dealing with that.
The
answers are hard to come by, but it’s on Pederson to figure it out or
this talented Eagles team isn’t going anywhere. That’s a guarantee.

Love all the crap talk with no true idea of intent.  Talking this board not what a player says.  Media infers it meant this and everybody jumps on board.

he was responding to what the coach says... its not uncommon for players to make comments based off what a coach is telling them.  its hardly like he was shouting down Zimmer.

True. Yeah I get that ^^^^

You get too many guys chirping and sometimes you lose the message.

they are kids and they were excited.   i know they are in their 20s, but considering they are all into social media and video games,  and really dont have much for adult problems i think they are just big kids and it was a happy moment for them.
