is it unavailable for everyone or just my stupid irish ip address

I know that a lot of people are high on Sims making a huge impact this season. I’m actually psyched that he is a hard hitting mofo.

Come on, save this kind of hitting for the season ernie, not your fellow players. Ernie should lay up a bit now.

Still it’s practice. This is football and these are contact reps so Brent deal with it and try to get a good block/pancake later on him. The only guys that should be really excused of getting hit hard are the QB’s.

and its football.
you want him to take it easy on “one of the keys to the season”. thats definitely how they’ll get better..

It’s a hit? WTF? This is football right? Maybe it was a bit over the top but again, it’s football…it also looked like Stew was involved in the hit, maybe at the very end but whatever. Celek is fine, he’s a big boy, literally and figuratively, he can take a hit and move on.

No shit.

It’s a matter of being able to get full-speed reps in during practice, so you practice like you play, as every coach everywhere pretty much likes to say.

If you can go full speed to the ball and give a little thud and not risk injuring your own teammates, and not have that be a problem on Sundays, do that.

If you only know one way to play and that’s full steam ahead, then offensive players on the Eagles will have to learn to deal with it. But we’ll probably cost ourselves a man-game or five somewhere down the line rolling like that, so it’s imperative that the gains of going hard in practice are worth it.

Andy should just line up a lot of expendable WRs and RBs and just let Ernie smack them one after the other.

“Okay, Jordan, run a curl.” (BOOM!!) “Okay, J.J., run a toss left.” (BOOM!!)

Get it out of his system.

Next to Trent Cole, Ernie Sims is my favorite player on the Eagles. I almost passed out when we got him. I had a man crush on him coming out of FSU.

1) Don’t scrimmage with the ones
2) Don’t put players in full pads
3) Don’t piss and moan when a starter gets rocked

and i love it, seriously reading this convo about a linebacker that hits TOO HARD is absolutely hilarious to me after last years debacle at lb.

…perhaps Celek should wear a red jersey?

If you call contact in practice, you need to understand that there will be contact.

Hell, I’ve given that shoulder to people myself. Its nothing, celek was off balance.

Besides.. would you guys rather him not hit, and wiff on tackles in the real games?

Besides.. would you guys rather him not hit, and wiff on tackles in the real games?Celek is a tight end, not a wideout or a fragile scatback. He’s got big boy pads on.

he used to knock out his quarterbacks in practice at FSU.. he likes to hit, but not Celek. Hit Hank, he has no talent

In the video it almost looks like Stew had just as much to do with it. I wasn’t there, but thats what the video makes it look like. And if you think that THAT was a big hit from Sims, just wait til the season starts.
