Not too shocking. This is a suspended season for us, Babin is too costly, and too ineffective.

This cancer has all the passion and intrinsic motivation of a styrofoam cooler. Cry baby’s pre game routine is selling t shirts (seriously) to fans at the Linc and spends his rapidly diminishing game time worrying about others calling him bad names….waaaaa, waaaa, waaaa! Good riddance.

I know he will land in DC!!! He can go back to Philly in a couple of weeks and get some payback….or lay an egg!

—————————-
PLEASE….stop with that. Babin to the skins? Who sits for him? He doesn’t play 3-4 D. He is one dimensional, and has no place in Washington. We are moving forward in DC, right? No more out of place, bad attitude Free agents, Please.

Falcons should give him a shot if he clears waivers

Probably the worst DE ive seen play the position. This guy got his sacks by good secondary play and being flat out fast and just running by the RT. Well that doesnt look pretty when the other team runs the ball. Its time to get rid of that dead weight dline and secondary. Aso should be next.

Starting to cut the starters, I would have cut Kurt Coleman and Nnamdi Asomougha first….

Wow, I was going to drop the “Pats could use him” comment… but after reading these comments I’m hoping they stay away.

Its about time they listen to us fans.

Any front office that makes decisions based on what the fans say should be fired on the spot. Especially in Philly.

Last player picked up by NE that was considered a liability against the run but a good pass rusher: MAnderson(10 sacks).

Are the Eagles making their player personnel decisions based upon the comments section here at PFT?

Well, that would explain their record.

Maybe he had not a great attitude but he had 23.5 sacks in one and half season, what about Asomougha who allowed 500 long bombs in the last season?

By: laeaglefan

laeaglefan — Tue, 27 Nov 2012 23:28:36 +0000

The “sacks” he picked up in the last two weeks were both situations where the QB went down on his own without being hit and Babin just touched him to get credit for the sack. Come to think of it, he had a few like that last year as well.

“Make it happen Belichick!”

Absolutely no chance Belichick brings him in. Belichick doesn’t play guys that refuse to defend against the run (it’s why Arrington has started for so long although Dennard seems to have finally replaced him) Babin is a liability against the run and the team that brings him in should only give him snaps in obvious passing situations.

Plus Babin has only had success in the wide nine and even that system isn’t working for him anymore. Personally I’d rather see the Patriots give Justin Francis more reps, whenever he gets on the field he seems to make it count.
———————————————————-

Wide 9 defensive ends have almost no chance against the run, it’s not about refusal to play it. Babin played linebacker in Houston and played more of a JKearse/WMcGinest role in Tennesee, both with some success. Pats wouls be crazy not to look at him as a situational pass rusher. You really think JFrancis can hold a candle to this guy?? Please.

23.5 sacks in the last 2 seasons?

Yeah, what a cancer!

@andrewfbrowne

Its about time they listen to us fans.

We wanted a WR for like 5 years they go out and get TO and McNabb had his best season and the Eagles went to the bowl. (of course the low-ball contract they gave TO blew up in their face but it was a magical season)

We said McNabb was overrated and we got dogged for it. How is he doing now.

We said we need to run the ball more and now, well ok 2 out of 3 ain’t bad.

As for this year Juan Castillo shouldn’t have been fired from a job he shouldn’t have had in the first place. Oh and Andy way to help him out by bringing in Washburn and the wide 9.

Vick didn’t get benched he got a concusion. And I see no reason not to let Foles show what he has left when the season is over for the Eagles.

This move is a warning to all the other roster bubble guys on this team. Shape up or ship out.

Denver should sign him to back up Von and Elvis!

By: andrewfbrowne

andrewfbrowne — Tue, 27 Nov 2012 22:21:52 +0000

I just moved to Philly and the fans are running the Eagles right now. Wanted Castillo gone, wanted Vick benched, wanted them to clean house in front office and everyone but Howie Roseman has been fired, Babin said he was disgusted with the fans chanted for Andy Reid’s job and questioned their loyalty and now he is gone. They are getting what they want right now, and will get all of what they want once Reid is let go, but I have a feeling once they get all of what they want they won’t like that either. These are passionate fans, but I would never call them good fans.

Texans i know he was a bust for us but please sign him to a one year contract if he clears waivers because our OLBs aren’t getting any pressure on the qb.

Babin just isn’t the same player this year so this will give some younger guys a chance.

Why not just make him defensive coordinator?

By: EJ

EJ — Tue, 27 Nov 2012 21:59:11 +0000

Talented pass rusher, terrible against the run. I could see using him as a third down DE and late in the game when most teams are passing to catch up. I would wait and hope he passes through waivers in order to get him at a better price. Its likely that he won’t make it past New England or New Orleans though.
