Remember when Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie called the team “the gold standard“? It’s been a long time, with no championships, since that infamous quote. With the team clearly not being the gold standard in the NFL, at what point should fans be vocally critical of the process in which teams operate?
Obviously, The Process in Philadelphia should not be questioned. That of course is Joel Embiid. However, the process for the Eagles is definitely worth questioning.
Carson Wentz is certainly worthy of the hype. While there has been criticism of his mechanics, he owns nearly every rookie record in franchise history.
