I was personally very happy with their defensive strategy.

Now we get to have our teeth kicked in by the Spurs tonight. I wouldn't want to see them at all down the home stretch but especially on the second night of a back to back with no Bogut or Lee.

Richard Sherman: DeSean Jackson and I can't change where we're from | The MMQB with Peter King

Richard Sherman was a douche on the football field, and that's why I don't like him.

But I do love how he's not willing to toe the company line. Albeit, I think he misses the point. I think you could make an argument that the Eagles were worried about Desean being involved in an Aaron Hernandez like murder case (something that didn't exist with Riley Cooper). But really this is mostly about the money and skill-set, with a convenient push from the gang-ties story.

Kelly didn't like DeSean's attitude and more importantly the 11 million (annually) he was making and set to make. Neither did any of the other teams as they weren't biting at the chain to take that salary on via trade. They needed a scapegoat for the fans to not rake the Eagles brand through the dirt for cutting such a talented wideout. That's why the gang story was released. By all accounts it is/was common knowledge of D-Jax's alleged gang affiliations by most all the NFL's personnels. All about the dollars and cents. If D-Jax was set to make 4m coming off his most productive season, he could have Al Qaeda ties and the Eagles would've kept him.

Guess there is no need to worry about him hitting cleanup ahead of Bryce anymore...?

should be Span, Zman, Harper, Werth, Des... but we'll see.

I honestly believe that CK was looking for any reason in the world to get rid of Djax. How they didnt kill each other last season is beyond me. I dont buy half of the reasons that Lurie said that they got rid of Djax, he's really done nothing at all off the field to warrant anything.
