Honestly never saw him as anything more than a David Martin at BEST with Tyrone Davis 2.0 being more likely.

Good luck and good riddance, hope you can do your job better on the next team you play for.

Congratulations to all of you who can now use Bostic as an excuse for the next 10 years.

Even if that play never occurs he was probably not gonna be back.

UDFA that got his shot with The Packers and didn't. Meet the expectations of The coaches.

NOT one Of you know if Bostic will or will not continue his career with another team.

I hope he gets another chance somewhere and makes the most if it.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

He was primarily brought in to become the next Jermichael Finley and once he became injured that ruined those plans.

If you can't perform enough to take snaps away from Quarless, you are not going to be sticking around long as a TE on this team.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Brandon BOSTICK, I give him a lot of respect for being one of the few who stayed late answering every media person question asked. He didn't run, he didn't hide, he owned it. He admitted he made a mistake and no one is disputing that.

What people are jumping his case about is not the onside kick bobble but rather his few years here without taking the next step. No, he never wanted to be Finley, nor was he expected to. Those were things WE said due to his size and athleticism.

Looks like Dorsey is gone too. Sucks for him it seems like he's got the same recurring foot injury. Gotta hate seeing an injury never really give a guy a shot to make it.

looks like they cleared a little over a million in cap space by cutting these two. Most likely to be replaced by cheaper rookies so they gained a little.

Now hey can sign Cobb, Bulaga and Suh

I also give props to Bostick for owning up to his mistakes.
That takes real character. If he had that level of talent to go with it, he'd be something.
He's a so so player, but nothing special.
I wish he would have worked out.

My issue with Bostick is he had 2 receptions all year. This tells me his main job was special teams. To complete screw up an assignment at this level on your main job is just mind blowing.

I am not pinning the loss on Bostick (I blame McCarthy and Slocum), but seriously the lack of focus is astonishing in such a big game. How many plays in the play book does he have to work on? You'd figure they would practice this situation every practice that it should be a natural reaction, yet it wasn't.

Zero2Cool (14-Feb) : Packers are hiring Luke Getsy as senior offensive assistant.

Martha Careful (12-Feb) : I would love to have them both, esp. Crosby, but either might be too expensive.

Zero2Cool (12-Feb) : Keisean Nixon is trying to get Maxx Crosby and Davante Adams lol

Mucky Tundra (11-Feb) : Yeah where did it go?

packerfanoutwest (11-Feb) : or did you resctrict access to that topic?

packerfanoutwest (11-Feb) : why did you remove the Playoff topic?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
