Kyler A solid Oline, finally Edmonds/Conner DHop, Green, Kirk, Moore Ertz Six of those guys are receiving threats on any play and 5 are run threats. That’s a lot of tools in the toolbox. I love it! Connor has surprised the **** out of me. I figured he would just be a north/south bruiser to compliment Chase but the man is running with energy and speed, hes been looking pretty good on the carries he gets.

This is the most complete Cardinal offense ever IMO. Ertz can do for KM the need for the guy that settles down in zone and catches first downs. Keep “tricklating the ball down the field boys”. Stop penalties and we are Unstoppable.

Interesting tidbit.
Zach’s wife Julie and JJ Watt’s wife Kealia are teammates on the Chicago Redstars soccer team, and Julie also plays for the USA Women’s team. Is this the first time there has ever been a double husband/wife teammate combo in professional sports?

Zach had career lows last year and is now 31. He's had 2 good games this year. His numbers are almost identical to Maxx's this year.
I think it's a good pickup, i think he will thrive in this system. probably rejuvenate him.

I'm pretty sure players are not allowed to suit up for two games in the same week, so don't expect to see him until the Texans game. All they have to do is pass their physicals for the trade is finalized. Nothing says they can’t play two games in a 3 day period. Got to have the playbook down as well so maybe they will run a limited amount of plays with Ertz in this week! He cant play this sunday.

"I was crying in the locker room last night for 30 minutes. I felt bad because the guys didn't really know, but I couldn't help it," Ertz told reporters Friday. "It was special. Last January against Washington, there were no fans, so it was weird. I'm glad I didn't end it like that last January. It was special last night. Obviously we didn't win, which sucked, but it was fun. It was fun to do what I do out there, and I felt like I played great, was myself, and I'm excited to go to Arizona."
Ertz is almost I dentical in height, weight, draft position and speed to Maxx. I think Ertz is known for better route running and hands but Maxx might be the better blocker and YAC guy. I’m not expecting a massive upgrade in play from the TE spot as a whole. But this signing replaces a big loss and gives another high character, captain type veteran leader with Pro Bowl and Super Bowl winning experience.

He is tough high character guy. Another guy with great leadership ability. Monster in the red zone.

I think it's a good pickup, i think he will thrive in this system. probably rejuvenate him. Like AJ Green, Ertz is past his prime but not “old old” for his position, and in 2020 suffered from massive changes at QB including play with green rookie QB’s who weren’t NFL ready, as well as being one of the main receiving threats (more attention from defenses) where in AZ DHop and others will soften the defensive attention paid. I expect there is plenty wear on the tires and wouldn’t be surprised if we do a three year contract or similar.

Not sure if this clears anything up for some who were wondering if Ertz is playing in Cleveland…NFL network made comment he will be eligible next week. So, looks like no in Cleveland

It’s high time the Eagles give Goedert an extension and the full time job. Theyve been splitting the receiving TE job, and together this year combine for 33 receptions, 400 yards and 4 TD’s. Our top two TE’s combine for 16 receptions, 193 yards and 1 TD…and that was all Maxx as he’s the only TE on our roster who did anything. Put Goedert and Ertz’s numbers together and they exceed the numbers of Mark Andrews or Travis Kelce for 2021 so far, the top 2 TE’s this season.
