Pay Trey!
I agree last nights defensive showing wasn't good, and they are going to pay Trey. Hell they're offering close to $40M per year but both sides are haggling over guarantee money. I agree with Pally this gets settled in the next 2 weeks.
In regards to the defense, I'm actually glad they played last night w/o Trey. You have a New DC who's wanting to see players in action. He's wanting to see what Shamar does in a game....See what Myles does, all up and down the DL. They're trying out players at different positions. They have a younger LB corp minus Burkes and Logan. DB's they didn't start the CB's your likely to see on opening day due to injury.
I still think this defense will be in the Top 15-20 of football. This is what the pre-season is for. To see what you have in the players, to see what works and what doesn't vs opposing teams. I'm definitely not freaking out over 1 night of football. Just like I'm not going to be completely psyched at the offensive performance from the Bengals either. There's a lot of players on the Eagles 2nd team that would start for MANY football teams in the NFL.
